Face time iMac and iPad.

Is there no answer to my question, which is;
Why can't I face time between my iMac and my iPad.

Hi Wilhelm1979,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
You can make and receive FaceTime calls between your iPhone and your Apple computer but not if they are signed into the same Apple ID. You cannot FaceTime another device that is using the same Apple ID for FaceTime. Please use the following article as a reference for FaceTime usage.

Have a great day,

I can not hear when I face time on my IPad

When using face time on my IPad the audio quits after using for a short time. Is there a fix for this.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. DONT CONNECT YOUR DEVICE TO A COMPUTER.
then try it. if that doesnt work
Go to settings>icloud>storage and back up>back up
or back it up to a computer
after that preform a restore by going to
general>reset>erase all content and settings
this will delete everything except the enabled stuff on icloud.
You can view whats enabled by going to icloud in settings.

HT204380 I don' have face time on my ipad mini. why?

i Don't have face time on my ipad mini. Why?

Where did you buy your mini? Facetime is not installed in UAE area countries, and you can't install it if you are in a country that does allow FT.

HT1631 How can I share and sync passwords between iMac and iPad

I'm in password ****!!!! My memory is not what I once was and managing passwords on my iMac and iPad is making me crazy. The iMac is the home planet at work for the iPad and it use it all day... the iPad is my device of choice when at home.
The value of a strong password cannot be understated in these times!!!!
Is there an easy way to sync passwords between the two. I find I spend way to much time resetting passwords because I simply cannot remember them.
Again... and again... and again... is the story of my life.
Help

The following may help:
If you are using Safari on both devices and you have iOS 7.0.3 or later on the iPad and OS X Mavericks 10.9 or later on the Mac, iCloud Keychain may be what you want: iCloud: Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
There are other options available with 3rd party software. Two popular ones are https://lastpass.com and https://agilebits.com/onepassword

I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now I have iMac and have changed to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?

I have a Domain name with email forwarding to my Service Provider which worked very well when I had a PC. Now that I have iMac I have changed the account type to IMAP from POP3 so I can sync. between iMac and iPad but how?
I do receive emails into my iMac for which I have 3 email accounts but am struggling on how synchronise between iMac and iPad so that both are up to date at all times. I have also set up a iCloud email account thinking this was the way to go but have drawn a blank.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Linc Davis,
I have set up my email address both within my iMac and my ISP as IMAP accounts and I receive all emails without problem on my iMac. I have also set up an iCloud email address using my iMac.
I have enabled the email within "setting" on my iPad and have used the iCloud account. I have sent emails from the iMac to iPad using the iCloud account address and vice versa. I have also sent emails from the iPad to the iMac using my non-iCloud email address and they have gotten through.
The one thing I would like to have is for the iPad "mail" mailboxes to mimic the iMac "mail" mailboxes and both to be "in sync". I am not really interested in using the iCloud email address for my email but would really like to use my "normal" addresses as these are what most people know me by.
Do I need to set additional accounts within the iPad which are the same as the email accounts I have within the iMac and my ISP? I have reached the end of my knowledge as regards email synchronsing.
Thanks

Face time iPhone to iPad busy! Why?

Hi I am trying to face time with my iPad 2 from my iPhone 4 they are both on the same wifi network and are in both contacts list FaceTime s turned on, on both devices .
All it says on my iPhone screen is that +.....+ Is busy at this time. Yet my ipad rings once then goes off.
Can someone please help with any advice with this issue. Thank you.

Ok. You are right. I can call the phone from the pad fine. But calling the pad from the phone results in the busy situation. The problem is both devices are associated with the e mail address.
So here is the solution.
Use an alternate email address on the pad. If you have one, you are all set. If you do not, then goto google mail and set up a gmail account. It is free, and it never hurts to have ana alternate email address laying around. Once you have an alternate address
1. On the pad. Setting, face time, click on add e mail . Enter the new address. To get it to stick, you need to click add email again.
2. You will se the label 'email' changes to 'verifying'. Go to you new gmail, and respond to the verififcation e email that apple has just sent you. (They sent me the email within 1 minute)
Once you do this , the pad will answer face time calls to eith the original or the new e mail address.
3. On the phone. Go into contacts and find your own contact entry. Add the new email address.
4. Do not add the new email address on the face time 'receive' setting on the phone. If you do, you will end up back where you started.
So. When you call you phone from the pad, use the phone number. When you want to call the pad from the phone, use the alternate e mail address. When others call, ifmthey use the phone number, the phone will ring. If they use your email address, both the pad and the phone will ring. Ifnthey use the new e mail address, only the pad will ring.
Ok?

TS3276 An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?

For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
Problem solved.
And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

I have a contact I no longer use and have deleted it from Contacts on my iMac and iPad, but it still keeps appearing in the To: box when I enter a similar contac, obote the iMac and iPad. How do I completely delete it to prevent this from happening? Thank

I have a email address I no longer use and want, so have deleted it from my address book on my iMac and iPad. It kept reappearing when I started to type a similar email address, so I was advised to delete it by going to Mail on the iMac... Mail > Window > Previous Recipients... and Delete from there... which worked, and it now no longer appears in the To: box when typing a similar email address in Mail on my iMac.
However, even though I have deleted the same contact/email address on my iPad, it still appears when typing a similar email address in Mail on the iPad. How do I perform a similar action as I did on my iMac, to prevent it from reappearing?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks, Simon.
On the iMac..

The only way that I currently know of to remove old and invalid email addresses on the iPad is to restore back to factory defaults, which I assume that you won't want to do. You could try leaving feedback for Apple, and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

HT5538 How do you separate multiple iOS devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

How do you separate multiiple ios devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

The only way I have seen is to have each device use a if fervent email account, if they all are on the same email the FaceTime connection is either to a phone number or to an email address. If they ar all on the same email, it is up to the user to decide which to use.

Can two Apple IDs be linked so that they can share data? My iMac and iPad have the same Apple ID and sync contacts, bookmarks, etc. My wife's iPad has a different Apple ID. Can it be linked somehow to mine to share contacts etc?

No. You cannot link your contacts to hers. However, you can use Home Sharing to share the information:
Understanding Home Sharing
iOS- Setting up Home Sharing on your iOS device
Setting up Home Sharing for Apple TV (2nd & 3rd generation)
iTunes- Setting up Home Sharing on your computer

I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?

You can't simply change the details.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

Why can't I use face time on my iPad when it's all turned on

I want to get my parents setup with an imac and iPad. They are elderly and we live in different countries. I want to know what solution exists so I can be the remote administrator to maintain and keep them up and running .. I dont want anything fancy.

I would like to setup my eldery parents with an imac and ipad which I know will greatly help them in their daily life. The technology they love to play with whenever I visit, but they can never keep anything running or sync'ed unless I am around. Medical and other issues make this a real challenge for them. Unfortunately, I live in a different country and see them maybe once per year. I'm surrounded my apple products but never tried remote administration and wondered what I would need (software and hardware) to make this noble venture sucessful. Anyone out there has some experience or recommendations? I'm looking for something that is simple and reliable to implement ...

JokerGirl,
This is Scott J, I work for Intel and wanted to try and help you out. Sorry to hear about your current PC and your knee!
I agree with the bigger screen. I have the Samsung ATIV Smart PC with a screen 11.6" which is great to watch shows/movies! anything bigger is almost too big for a tablet (personal opinion).
Yes, most if not all tablets will have speakers and a headphone jack
You can watch YouTube
Only certain models have keyboards, you will want to specify this when making a purchase. Note: most keyboards are sold separately.
Covers are usually pretty easy to come buy, as well as screen protectors (clear plastic that covers and protects your screen from scratches, etc.)
Depending on the Operating System (Windows, Android, etc.) you will have access to an app store where you can buy and download content. Alternatively you can access your favorite sites to read news, get books, magazines, etc.
Hooking things to your tablet - different tablets will have different ports (USB, HDMI, etc.) Question to ask prior to making a purchase as some do not have ports (iPad). Back to my Samsung, I have several ports and do hook it to my TV
Tablets can run anywhere from $150-$1,000. The mid-range $400-$700 should fulfill all of your needs above and more!
Here's an article that might help you narrow down your search: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/gadgets/high-tech-gadgets/5-tips-for-choosing-the-right-tablet....
Happy Holidays!
