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.

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:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation

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.

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.

Greetings Hayg,
It seems you are concerned about the security of your Apple ID. That does sound troublesome. Changing your Apple ID password may help you resolve this:

Follow these steps to change your Apple ID password. If you can't remember your password, follow the steps for what to do if you forget your Apple ID password.
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Click “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you're unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
Click "Password and Security".
In the "Choose a new password" section, click Change Password.
Enter your old password, then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Click Save when done.

Face time activation - an error occurred while verifying your email

i can't get facetime to work on my iPad - i go to settings add my account details and password (i know they are correct as i just logged onto my apple account and they worked fine) - and when i click on "next" the message that comes up is "an eror occurred while verifying your email" - i've rebooted etc but i can't get it to work - on ios5 it was no problem..help!

ever figure this out? having a similar issue with a mac.com address...
we have a central mac.com email address with several aliases attached to it...all but 1 of those aliases have been successfully setup on separate ipods or iphones except for my wife's.
under "Messages," my wife has the central mac.com address and her phone number as eligible contacts. when i try to add her mac.com alias it bugs out and gives me the "verifying your email" error...also immediate...no chance it's really pinged anything in the time it took to display the error.

IMessage & Face Time activation error

I have an iPhone 4s. Last week imessage just randonly stopped working. Since then I have done the following;
Updated software to 8.1.2
Reset phone
Toggled imessage and FaceTime on and off
Ensured date and Timezone were correct
Signed out of Apple ID and signed back in
Turned Airplane mode on and off
Reset network settings
Kept phone off for 24 hours
Reset all wifi at home
Escalated the problem with Apple
None of the above worked. Can anyone please advise if they have had any success In overcoming this problem?

TS4268 "Face time Activation: Could not sign in . Please check you network connection and try again"

I always get this message when I try to activate facetime on my Ipod.The internet connection at home is fine and am able to surf through web pages etc. I went through the complete troubleshooting provided by Apple but in vain. There is no restictions or firewall.

- Go to Settings>General>Time&Date and make sure it is set to Automatic
- Go to Settings>wifi>the connected network and change the DNS to Google's 8.8.8.8

Face time activation on ipad2

Hi
Am not able to activate FaceTime on my ipad2
Any ideas?
Cheers
Ghassan

I have the same problem here. On my end I have a white iPad 2 16GB WiFI model and the other end has a white iPad 2 64GB WiFi + 3G. Both are running iOS 5.0.1. Usually we can leave Facetime running for 5-7 hours without an issue. Other days it'll have problems every 2 hours. The symptoms are somewhat similar to the ones you've listed...
The other party's image will freeze while the local image is still moving. There is no audio being transmitted in either direction. If we hang up and Facetime each other again then it'll connect but the other party's image will be completely frozen after the first few frames have been transmitted. The only fix we've tried to power down the iPad 2's on both ends and Facetime each other again. It'll work for a while again before it dies. These issues also occur between my iPad 2 and other side's 11-inch Macbook Air. It's a frustrating problem a la Windows 95 crashes back in the day. I suspect most users don't run into this issue because they don't leave their Facetime running for hours on end.

TS3367 Face time activation

I got an iphone as a gift from Saudi Arabia, I understand that it is banned in Saudi Arabia. Now I'm in state can I activate it.

There is no way to get FaceTime on an iPhone meant to be sold in SA,
regardless of the current location of the iPhone. If FaceTime is important
to you, sell that iPhone to someone who can use it in SA or who does not
care about FaceTime, and use the proceeds towards an iPhone at your
present location.
Restriction on FaceTime is per government of SA and the hardware in the
SA iPhone will not install FaceTime ever.
You could also try Skpe or some of the similar programs.
