Can you use facetime to call international cell phones

Hi there-
If I use Facetime to call an international cell phone (which is an iphone), will I be charged anything? I'll be calling over wi-fi on my end.
TIA

No, but she can install Skype for the Mac and be up and running with her Skype account.

  • Can you use FaceTime or iChat to call a non-iPhone?

    Can you use FaceTime or iChat to call a someone who does not have an iPhone?

    Hi,
    Yes.
    Just to be clear let me qualify that.
    FaceTime can contact other devices that use FaceTime either by a iPhone Number (includes some iPads) or an Apple ID.
    There is a FaceTime for Mac version so the person you contact (by Apple IDs) does not have to be on an iPhone.
    As well as iPhones certain other iOS 5 devices can use FaceTime and these include iPads as already mentioned and certain version of iPod Touches.
    As iChat does not work to iPhones and is an Instant Messaging app that can do Video and Audio Only chats and Screen Sharing, File Transfers, Pics-in-chats, iChat Theatre and more then the answer is also Yes.
    I suspect the question was really "Can I contact other phones that can do Video using FaceTime ?"  the answer to that is No.
    iChat can Text chat to most client apps on Phones (Jabber or AIM for instance)
    Video needs iChat (Or AIM or Trillain on a  PC).

  • Can you use FaceTime using two iPads with same apple id

    Have two iPads for wife and I. Both use same apple ID account. Can you use FaceTime between them?

    Heres what you do. got to settings>facetime>add an email and than add another email (note: cannot be the same email that you use on your apple ID) A verifaction email will be sent. Go to your email account and verify the email by clicking on the link. Now using the other ipad, make a facetime call to the email you just verified and you can now facetime between the two!
    One more side note. Make sure that only the email you just verified has a check mark on it. The other ipad shoud have a check mark next to the orginal apple ID email.

  • HT204380 can you use facetime in other languages

    Can you use facetime when language is set to different language other than english in the US?

    Is the other person on Wifi?  They may think that they can use Facetime via cellular, but they have to be using wifi as well.  And yes, you can facetime from the US to Europe.

  • If I buy the iphone 6 contract free T-Mobile,  is he also unlocked? Can I use in Brazil with my cell phone company from Brazil? thanks

    If I buy the new iphone 6 here in US, as a contract free T-Mobile, is he also will be unlocked? Can I use in Brazil with my cell phone company from Brazil? thanks

    Some users are reporting their contract-free T-Mobile iPhone 6 is unlocked, others are saying that they had to activate on T-Mobile and use their network for 40-days to get T-Mobile to unlock the iPhone.
    It would be wise to wait for the release of the Apple unlocked models.

  • Calling international cell phones

    I heard there is an app where you can call an international cell phone for free, does anyone know about it, or is there anything like it?

    Your best solution is either to find WiFi hotspots and use the Skype application for iPhone / Android to stay in touch.
    If you use your 3G/4G then you will incur expensive data roaming charges with your operator (unless you have some international plan).
    If you want to use Skype To Go numbers, it's only useful if you want to call internationally, so not too helpful for domestic calling within a country.

  • Can you use facetime with wifi only? No SIM card in iphone4

    Party A: No SIM Card, in US, calling using WIFI
    Party B: SIM Card, in another country, receiving calls, with WIFI
    Can Party A and B connect through Facetime?
    Thanks for your time.

     You can make video calls through skype.I think without sim you cannot use facetime because facetime needs your sim number.
    Slight correction: FaceTime on the *iPhone* needs your SIM number.  FaceTime on the iPod Touch, iPad and MacOS have no such need.
    This is one of the things I hate about Apple.  Why not just allow everything to behave the same?  Why should FaceTime, a non-cellular application, have to behave differently on the iPhone than on all other platforms?
    (I also don't like that Videos lives in the iPod app on the iPhone, but has it's own app on the iPod Touch and iPad)

  • Can you use facetime from cellular iPhone to wifi iPad Mini?

    I've noticed I can connect from my iPhone 4S to an iPad Mini when we are both using wifi.
    Howver, I cannot connect to the iPad when I am using cellular only (no wifi) on the iPhone (the iPad is wifi only).
    I can connect to other iPhones when we both use cellular, so I know it's not an issue due to a carrier restriction of my cellular use (Verizon).
    Is there an incompatiblity between using facetime from a cellular device to a wifi-only device? I would have though Apple would have a bridge between internet and cellular data for this.
    Thanks

    This is copied from the Apple iOS features website.
    *FaceTime video calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi-Fi connection. FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability. Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.
    Sometimes I find the "small print" to be even more confusing, but the way that I interpret this is that you have to go cellular to cellular. Cellular to WiFi doesn't work. It does seem to make sense, if you are sending the "message" or trying to connect over cellular, the person on the other end would need to pick up the "message" via cellular since it was sent that way by you.

  • Can I use FaceTime to call someone who doesn't have an iPad?

    My daughter and I are trying to connect through FaceTime. I have an iPad 2 with wi-fi and 3G. She does not have an iPad nor iPhone. She has a Blackberry smartphone. I've tried calling her via her cell phone number AND her email address. A message comes up telling me she is unavailable when I know she's sitting in front of her laptop waiting for me to call. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Oh well, that answered my question. Gosh darn....Bummer. I was hoping to be able to see my two small grandchildren. Are you familiar with Skype? I hope it's okay to ask this here. Is there ANY way that we can connect? I remember when I had a laptop with the camera built-in, as my daughter does, that we could connect and see each other. Can I get any help with this question? As always, I thank you for your help.

  • Can you use facetime with same apple id but 2 email addresses (myself and my daughter)

    I am having difficulty setting up Facetime.  My daughter and I have the 4thgen iTouch and are trying without luck to use the same apple id and 2 different email addresses to use Facetime.  Apple sends me a verification email to change the email address on the apple id to her email address, which I do not want.  Is it possible to set up Facetime this way.  If I set her up a separate apple id will all her old music and apps (under my apple id) still sync without problem?  Thanks

    Yes

    However you can only sync all media from one iTunes library/computer. However, one can sync music and videos with different computers/libraries if you have iTunes setup to manually sync. See that method included here:

  • Can't use facetime and iMessage with my phone number

    I activted Facetime and iMessage on my iphone 4 ios 5 but the my phone number wasn't available . I can only use it with my email

    Hello,
    You wont be able to install the latest version of iTunes on this iBook.
    The latest version of iTunes requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher.
    The iBook will not install Mac OS X 10.6 or higher due to not having an Intel processor.
    With this, you wont be able to sync and iPhone 4,4s or 5 running iOS 6 or higher

  • Can i use facetime via wireless vs my phone carrier?

    when traveling abroad can I initiate facetime using wireless vs. my wireless carrier?

    Yes, unless the public wi-fi hotspot your iPhone is connected to restricts/prevents doing so.
    FaceTime was available via wi-fi only for a while.
