  • HT5622 When trying to sign in to Face Time, I continually get Face Time Activation "Could not sign in.  Please check your network connection and try again"  I have reset my Apple ID and my Password and I am successfully logging into Safari.  What am I doi

    When trying to sign in to Face Time, I continually get "Face time Activation"  "Could not sign in.  Please check your network connection and try again".  I am able to access the internet via Safari, so my network connection seems to be working.  What am I doing wrong, and how can I access Face Time?

    Hey sklingen,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues signing into FAceTime. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268
    You may also want to reset your network settings:
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Note: this will delete any network related settings (saved Wi-Fi passwords, etc), it will not erase any content from your device.
    Thanks,

    Doesn't matter.  That store is likely selling illegit iphones, brought oin from somewhere else.
    The fact remains the UAE government does not allow Facetime on iphones legitimately sold there.

  • Face time software unavailable in iphone 4 factory unlocked UAE

  • When I go to settings and choose phone settings I don't see face time activation icon

    When I go to settings and choose phone settings I don't see face time activation icon

    Where did you get the phone? Facetime is banned in Saudi Arabia and UAE. If the phone came from one of those countries, it is permanently disabled and can not be added to the phone.

    Just FYI, diesel, per an agreement between Verizon and the FCC which allowed Verizon to buy additional spectrum, all Verizon-model iPhone 5, 5C and 5S models are already unlocked.

  • Face time icon disappeared on iPhone 5

    face time icon disappeared on iPhone 5, why? And I have read the manual and icon(app) was on both our iPhone 5's previously!!!

    I have an iPhone 5.  Stedman is right.  If you want to make a FaceTime call, you must go to the person's contact card and make the call by tapping the Facetime button.
    iPads have a FaceTime icon, but  iPhones have never had one.

  • Why is my face time coming from my iPhone instead of ipad

    Why is my face time coming from my iPhone instead of ipad

    Ksharf-
    The calling party may be using your iPhone's phone number to call you.  Otherwise, an E-Mail address is used as a phone number, so you must have a different E-Mail address for each device, and registered to the same Apple ID.  You might try completely turning off the iPhone and seeing if the iPad can receive FaceTime calls.
    If it works like an iPad, you would turn off the iPhone by holding the Sleep button for several seconds until the "Slide to power off" arrow appears.  To turn it back on, you would hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Face time over iPad and iPhone

    Hello all,
    I have a question about face time over iPad and iPhone.
    I have iPhone4S with ios6 and have unlimited data plan from Verizon in US.
    My friend, who has new iPad NOT iphone with iOS6 and currently lives in UK.
    Since iOS6 provides FaceTime over 3G/4G, do I get charged if I make a face time call with my 3G network?
    I know that I don't need to pay if I use wifi. I also believe that my friend won't get charged since his iPad only works through wifi.
    Any information will be much appreciated.

    One more thing to consider if you're using your iPhone to FaceTime to your friend in the UK:
    Sometimes, the iPhone will make the initial FaceTime contact as a telephone call, then switch to FaceTime.  So if you use Verizon (as opposed to WiFi) from your iPhone, you might get charged for a brief phone call to the UK.

    There is no such thing as a FaceTime App in the iPhone. So there is nothing for you to delete and reinstall. FaceTime is built in to the system via Contacts.
    Check and see if your carrier supports FaceTime. That may be the problem.
