Face Time on iMac problem

I downloaded Face Time onto my mother's iMac. Since she couldn't remember her password, I used mine from my iPhone. It downloaded fine. However, it seems that her iMac Face Time seems to be the same as my iPhone. When I use it to call my iPhone, it doesn't ring. I get missed calls on my iPhone as well as making a call. How can I get hers to be seperate from my iPhone?

    I have just installed Lion OS and Face Time encounters server problems on sign up. I have sought to rectify the firewall problem without success and even temporarily turned off firewall with no success. Any ideas?

    Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
    The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network/Advanced/DNS on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
    OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Google Public DNS
    8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

  • Face Time on iMac

    Face Time on iMac seems to work really well for a "beta". Does anyone know why it can recieve a call to it's email address but wants to dial out to a phone number? I guess I will have to play with it some more? This is a fantastic addition to the Face Time family of products Apple supports.

    Hi,
    I see your using a MacMini (is that correct?) - does your monitor have a camera?
    My computer auto logs into F/Time when I open the App.. The Page is 50% image (left side) & 50% a list of all your contacts..L

  • Using Face Time on iMac

    I am a new iMac user - set it up this morning - and can't seem to get into Face Time.  When I enter my Apple ID and password it says "signing in..." for short while then a red messgae comes up which says "The server encountered an error processing registration.  Please try again later."  Other functions reliant on the Apple ID work fine (iTunes etc).  Anyone have a clue why this would happen..?

    Try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall
    Several ways to access System Preferences.
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click System Prerferences.
    Or, click the Sytem Preferences icon in your Dock 
    Or, launch System Preferences from your Applications folder.

  • Face Time sign in problem.

    Face Time verifies my Apple ID, then asks for my password, which I've changed. Then it circles back to the Apple ID, verifies, andasks for my password again. An endless loop. What can I do?.

    Which model of iMac?
    What version of OS X is it running?

  • Photo booth face time and skype problems

    Hello i have recently updated to mountion lion 10.8.5 but the problem is everything works except my photobooth .facetime... and other video/ camera options ...
    tried resetting the smc...taking the battery out ..etc and i also know it isnt a hardware problem because it was working just fine before the update..Is anyone else having this same problem?

    if you've done an SMC reset and the issue still persists in all the applications that use the internal camera there may be a hardware issue.
    you need to see if the internal camera is listed in the system profile:
    click on black apple, about this mac, more info, system report and under the hardware section. click on USB look to the left and make sure the HD facetime camera is showing up there if it's not the mac needs serviced so take to apple store or service provider to have it looked at for repair.

  • Setting up face time on iMac

    Have trouble logging on using my apple ID and password. Once I long on using my apple ID and password it says it can't verify since this Apple ID is already used. Well duh!
    What's missing here?

  • HT204408 When trying to log into face time I get the registering device does not have appropriate credentials, I have OSX 10.8.4 on my Mac Pro. I can log in using my IPAD

    When trying to log into face time I get the registering device does not have appropriate credentials after I sign in, I have OSX 10.8.4 on my Mac Pro. I can log into face time without a problem using my IPAD.>

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the issue is reolved. If there's no resolution after Step 3, post your results.
    Step 1
    Sign out of iMessage in the Accounts tab of the preferences dialog, then sign back in.
    Step 2
    Log out of your user account and log back in.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode and test, then reboot as usual and test again.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.

  • "Face Time Failed"

    I have used my Mac Book Pro with Face Time without any problem until today.
    No matter to who I try to connect to, the message "Face Time Failed"
    Should I just re-boot the laptop or is there something else I need to do?
    Thanks!

    i think that the problem could be nobodys answering or theres a problem
    check with somebody and tell them your about to facetime them and it might work

  • Face time wont recognise my e.mail address

    Just bought a new ipad, downloaded ios 5, synched with my mac book pro, everything seemed OK until I tried to get face time to work. It works fine on my mac book pro and my ipod.
    When I sign in with my apple ID and password it then asks for the email address that I wish to use and when I enter it, it then says " Face Time Activation. Unable to veryfy email because it is already in use".
    This is the email address that both my ipod and mac book pro use on face time without a problem so i'm very confused and frustrated having tried for two days to get it to work.
    Have any of you very helpfull smart people out there got an idea why it won't take the email address? Your help would be much appreciated.

    Hi berczy,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing multiple issues with your iPad after updating. It sounds like you are on the right track, as all three of these tasks require an internet connection. To help isolate the issue further, are you able to open webpages in Safari? If not, we’ll need to troubleshoot the iPad’s network connection:
