Can't start FaceTime call

My FaceTime (V 2.0) on my MacBook Air (OS 10.8.3) doesn't have a menu for calling out, although it receives calls just fine.
My daughter was able to call me from her Mac. What gives?

Hi sjtill,
It doesn't have a little sidebar with the Contacts link on the right like this image shows?
Cheers,

  • I can't start Facetime. Keep getting a pop-up window saying that "an internal FaceTime error occured. There was a problem with FaceTime. You need to quit and open FaceTime again". I keep retrying to open and keep getting the same message over again.

  • I can not receive FaceTime calls from my mac when i call it from my iPhone

    it was all fine and now i can't recieve facetime calls but i can make them, doe it matter if i have the same email on my mac and my iphone?

    You should have a separate, verifyible e-mail address for your Mac, and a separate, verifyible e-mail address for your iphone.  Having the same address for both can cause the issue you're having.

  • I can't answer Facetime calls on my iPad.

    when I receive a Facetime call, I can't answer. Whether it's the slide answer when it's been sleeping or the red or green button when it's not, nothing happens when I try to answer.

    TThanks for the reply. I've been through everything on the troubshooting check list & restarted. Since I wrote the previous pots, things have got worse.now I can't make Facetime calls either. Before I just couldn't answer them. One thing, Skype is working. Oh, by the way, I am completely updated to IOS 8.0.2 & I am now at a loss as to what is wrong with Facetime!

    Do you know where is FaceTime call history on iOS 8?
    I updated from iOS 7, and now it shows only the contacts and under contact it's only the time of the last call that was with that particular contact.
    Tap on the "i" at the right of the contact. You'll see the other calls that are grouped in that entry.

  • Can't make Facetime calls using my  iMAC

    Recently I can not receive or make Facetime calls using my iMAC.  I can make and receive then on my iPhone.  If I make a Faectime call using my iMAC it says the person is not available to Facetime OR it makes the connection but immediately says "call failed".  If someone Facetimes me, my phone rings but not my iMAC.

  • Can't Make FaceTime Calls But Can Receive Them? SOS!!! HELP

    Hello,
    Just had my iPad for a week now and for some strange reason i am unable to make FaceTime calls but i can receive them.
    I connect through my Wi-Fi everything else seems to work great.
    Also when i click on the FaceTime app and i try to make a call, i get prompt with "Mobile Data Account" which asks me to set up a data plan.
    Doesn't Facetime work over Wi-Fi?
    Do i have to sign up for mobile data plan just to make FaceTime calls?

  • Why can I make FaceTime calls from my iPhone but not from my Mac?

    Facetime on my Mac sets up properly, links to my contacts, and appears to make calls (i.e., it "rings"). But it doesn't actually connect to the other person. However, I can make Facetime calls on my phone. Huh?

  • Can't receive FaceTime calls on Mac

    I can't make or receive Facetime calls on my Mac. It looks like it tries to answer but then gets rejected. When I tested it w/ my iphone it said that the caller was busy (when nothing was going on on my mac). Does this happen to anyone else and is there a fix for it?
    And before someone posts it, I've already gone thru the basic troubleshooting instructions so just dont send it please...

    Did you eventually get it to work? If so what did you do?

    i bought ipad from UAE and went Egypt , Facetime call icon doesn't exist so i can't find facetime call

    Ipads purchased in the UAE do not have FaceTime as it is prohibited by the UAE. You cannot add FaceTime to those iPads no matter where it might be used.
