Face time is not working with my daughter in the USA. Why?

I am trying to have FaceTime sessions with my grandchildren in America. We can connect but it freezes and I cannot hear them. They have a good signal on their WiFi and they can see and hear me but I can hear them. The screen is frozen and the sound is all broken up. help!

  • Help....my daughter has an ipod, iphone and ipad and face time will not work

    My daughter has an iphone, ipod and we have a family ipad. for some reason face time will not work. it rings in but the connection is never made. I even had her phone into verizon and they couldn't figure out why facetime wouldn't work. Anyone have any ideas on how we can correct this. It cannot be her phone because it's doing the same thing on her ipod, I cannot get facetime even to call out on our ipad. My oldest daughter has the iphone and a MAC in the same household and hers are working?

    Alot of people are having problems with FaceTime.
    Are you're devices updated?

    MacBook Pro  / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
    I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better.  Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG.   However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.  
    This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success.  So here's what I did:
    1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
    2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
    3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
        [also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
    4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
    5. Go back to the Get  Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
    6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
    7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
    8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

  • Photoshop CS2 will not work with RAW images in the Minolta DimAge A2.  It use to work fine

    I have used Photoshop CS 2 with my DimAge A2 for over 5 years in the RAW format.  Now it will not work with RAW with my camera.  I am using Vista 64.Any answers ?  Thanks

    It would seem to me that you have probably had to reinstall Photoshop CS 2.  If that is the case, then you should download and install Camera Raw 3.7.  The version that was on your install disk was updated several times.  And one of those updates probably included support for your camera.  Install ACR 3.7 and see if that helps.

  • Urgent--custom servlet not working with https/gateway of the portal server

    We have created the custom servlet to add some more authentication to the login screen. I have explained detaildely below.
    We have set if password reset change password screen should come by using identity server.
    First screen comes which asks �user id� and �password�.
    after this next screen comes with �old password�, �New Password� and �Confirm Password� (as we have forcefully asked user to change password after reset by using identity server ).
    On this page we have added two new filed �Date of Birth� and �Date of Joining�.
    And we are forcefully transferring request to our Custom Servlet which will validate the �Date of Birth� and �Date of Joining� from the database and submit the same a form as required by Login Servlet to validate the default parameters �old Password�, �New Password� and �Confirm Password� (which is the default validation without adding custom Servlet).
    This whole process is working with �http� protocol and giving �unable to connect� host with �https� protocol.
    Without custom Servlet process is like this, which is working
    Login (usrid, password) � Login (Old Password, New Password, Confirm Password) � Portal home Page
    With custom Servlet , Which is not working with �https� Protocol. we are getting the message "Authentication Failed" screen.
    Login (usrid, password) --> Login (Old Password, New Password, Confirm Password , Date of Birth, Date of Joinig) --> Custom Servlet validate Date of Birth, Date of Joining --> Login (Old password, new Password, Confirm Password) --> Protal Home Page
    This one works with http, whereas this one gives the "Authentication Failed" screen with the https.
    Please let me know if anybody have implemented this and help me to resolve the issue.
    Best Regards

  • Firefox will not work with Rabbit TV on the Golf Channel

    2 months ago I purchased Rabbit TV and eliminated TV service through a cable provider.
    I then went to the Golf Channel to watch live streaming golf.
    I would not work with Firefox.
    It left me with no option but to go back to MS Explorer, which works just fine.
    I do not like Explorer but have not choice.
    Have you corrected the issue?

    Do the other channels work, just not golf?
    Please check your plugins and see whether you have the following:
    * Microsoft Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0.0.8
    * Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.202
    * Silverlight Plug-In 5.1.20125.0
    You can check those here:

  • Time Capsule Not Working With Azureus!

    Hi everyone.
    I have read every post about this and I am sure I've done everything right, but I STILL cannot pass the NAT/Firewall test on Azureus. I even got an Apple rep to look into it and he worked on it for a week and even he doesn't understand why it isn't working!!! I am running Leopard 10.5.2, and I have a 500 GB Time Capsule. I am using the latest version of Airport Utility and the latest version of Azureus. My ISP is Verizon Fios. Please note that when I was using Airport Extreme with a Powerbook G4 OS 10.4, everything was working swimmingly. The ONLY thing that's changed is that now I'm on Leopard and a Time Capsule. So, Here's a summary of what I've done :
    1. In Network Prefs, made sure I am using a manually configured static IP address (10.0.1.201.)
    2. In Security prefs, made sure firewall is off.
    3. In Airport Utility, made sure I am sharing single IP address using NAT and DHCP.
    4. In Port Mapping, checked the NAT enable box and opened these ports: 6881-6889, 49125-65535, and 40156 just for kicks. I've entered these numbers both public and private, both UDP and TCP (filling in all 4 fields, in other words) AND made sure the IP address matched the static one I was using in Network Prefs.
    5. Restarted Azureus and my Time Capsule (and even the whole computer, just for good measure).
    And guess what? Each and EVERY time, I go back to Azureus, run the NAT/Firewall test using a port I just opened, and am told it failed and that the port is in fact closed. I get the "timed out" error.
    ***?????? I have been working on this for weeks, literally, and I am totally losing it! Will I never see a green smiley again? Please help!!!!
    Thank you in advance for ANY tips you may have...

    Here are the settings that work for me.
    1. Azureus>Options>Connections>Incoming TCP/UDP listen port:  49125
    2. Applications>Utilities>Airport Utility>Time Capsule>Internet>NAT> Enable NAT Port Mapping Protocol
    3. Applications>Utilities>Airport Utility>Time Capsule>Advanced>Port mapping>
         Public UDP portal: 49125
         Public TCP portal: 49125
         Private IP address: 10.0.1.201
         Private UDP portal: 49125
         Private TCP portal: 49125
    4. System Preferences>Network>Advanced>TCP/IP>Configure IPv4: *Using DHCP with Manual Address* (this is choice #2 not #4: Manual)
    5. IPv4 address:  10.0.1.201
    I think that's all. I fooled around with this for a long time and not everything I did may be necessary but I don't want to mess with success.  Don't know why port 49125 works, but it worked on my Dell computer and Linksys router also. Apple Support was positive I didn't need steps 4 and 5 but 60 seconds later, my smiley faces turned green, and when I tested the port, Azureus message said "+Congratulations, you fixed it."+
    The only difference I see, between your settings and mine, is perhaps steps #1 and #4. Hope you get it working. Nothing more frustrating than " little yellow faces".
                

  • Face Time does not work consistently on the iPad 2.

    Both iPad 2's are updated to the latest iOS version. Both use e-mail addresses to contact each other. Both are using wireless.
    When you first try to connect to the iPad it shows it trying to connect but the receiving iPad does not ring. If you go into settings and turn off Face Time and then back on again on the receiving iPad it will work fine for about 3 connections then it stops working again until you turn Face Time off then on again.
    Any suggestions to fixing this issue?

    It finally seems to work (2nd day now and counting)...
    I tried the following with no luck:
    upgrading to iOS 5
    adding an associated e-mail and calling that associated e-mail
    do a full-scale registration of the e-mail (and making a free purchase via itunes) instead of a 'facetime only' registration
    this combo however seems to have done the trick:
    keeping the ipad2 plugged in
    changing the dns on the ipad to "8.8.4.4,8.8.8.8"
    If it continues to work for a few more days, then i think i can say the the problem is finally resolved.

  • Text and face time will not work on wifi

    I am trying to use face time and iMessage on wifi. It worked for a little while, then stopped. Can anyone help with this issue?

    • If you have not already tried it, restart your Mac and test again.
    • If the trouble continues, Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
       suggestions may help you.  The proper "reset" suggested there for your
       particular Mac model or changing to a new user may restore normal function.
    (Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
