Face Time sometimes doesn't connect

I am trying to perform a test connect to facetime using my iphone 4 and ipad 2. The two devices would not connect, however, when I tried to place a face time call simultaneously on both devices calling each other at the same time, it will successfully connect.
To check if FT will work again, I will hang up and try to connect after 1 minute by calling the other device and vise versa... and the test turns out ok.
However, after 10 mins, when i try to call using either of the device, it will not connect. To have it working again, I will repeat the process I explained
earlier by placing a call to both device (calling each other simultaneously) in order to connect.
My ipad is running under the latest firmware (4.3.2) while my iphone 4 is running firmware (4.1).   I hope somebody can held me resolve the issue.

Unable to make or receive FaceTime calls after April 16, 2014

  • My Macbook sometimes doesn't connect to my Wireless N network

    I had my topcase replaced by apple a few weeks ago. Since then I've noticed my macbook SOMETIMES doesn't connect to my wireless N network (from my AEBS running on 5.8ghz frequency).
    It's strange because most of the time it finds the network fine. But sometimes when i open the macbook up (awakes from sleep) it doesn't see the network (it's not available from the list of available networks). If i try to connect manually to the network when this happens i get a "connection timeout" message. If i turn off my airport connection off and then on with the macbook (thru the menu bar) it sometimes finds the N network. Sometimes that doesn't work, and i have to put the macbook to sleep and hope it finds the network when it awakes. Sometimes that solves the problem, but i may have to try it 3 or 4 times.
    If i switch my AEBS to a mixed signal (supporting G) i don't have these problems, but i shouldn't have to do that, and i'm sacrificing wireless speed if i do that. I have a stable connection when it DOES find the network (it won't drop out and will be at full strength) but as soon as i put it to sleep i run the risk it may not find the network when it awakes.
    As i said before i didn't notice this problem before I sent in the macbook to have the topcase repaired - is it possible the airport card was damaged? I was only running a N wireless network a week prior to submitting the macbook for repair, so i'm not positive that's it either.

    There's a reason why some are less than energetic in answering your question: the "pinwheel of death" could mean a lot of things. To start off, you will need to use various utilities to coax your MBP into functionality:
    1. Perform a Permisions Repair, and also Repair your disk on Disk Utilities. If this doesn't work, proceed to the next step.
    2. Using a free utility like Onyx, clean your caches.
    3. Using the free Kext Wizard, make sure your files are consistent and accurate.
    4. Use OpenDNS by connecting to this link:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2478039?start=0&tstart=0
    OpenDNS is a simple way of making your online experience faster and easier.
    If these steps were successful, take the time to post here; others will profit from your experience. If you still don't have the answer, post...and we'll find the solution!

  • Face Time keeps failing after connecting

    Face Time was working fine but now failing after connecting.
    Calling IPad 2 with mac Book Pro and I Phone 4s.

    The description of your problem indicates that your Lan/wi fi network MAY be the culprit because a video chat system requires lots of bandwidth, since large amounts of data need to be transfered back and forth on your system.  You may be suffering from wifi interference from neighboring networks, in which case you need to change your wifi channel to another clear channel.  Also, your network may have slowed down for a number of other reasons.  To operate Facetime effectively using Wifi, you need a recent generation of wireless router for best results, such as an 802.11n capable unit.

  • Why face time cannot use network connection?

    Why face time must use wi-fi, cannot use network connection?

    If you want to do video chat over 3G, there are other apps in the App Store that you can use, including, I believe, Tango, Skype, Qik, Yahoo Messenger.

  • Face Time not able to connect from MBAir with yosemite 10.10.2 to ipod 4th gen. 6.1.6

    Hi All
    I ressurrected my son's 4th gen Ipod and updated to 6.1.6 . It work perfectly . System 6.1.6 has face time and iMessage and the it works flawlessly from the ipod to my 2013 MB air with Yosemite 1010.2 and to the Ipad air2 with latest software . However the contrary does not works ! When I try to make FaceTime calls FROM the MB air or the Ipad to the Ipod , it hangs & disconnects . iMessage works perfectly both ways . Stranger than that , Face Time works without a glitch to the 4th gen Ipod , from an older MB black with system 10.7.5 ! Thanks in advance for your help .

  • Having issues with face time and messages to connect with people overseas

    I seem to have issues with contacting two people who live overseas. I was recently visiting that country and while there had no problems contacting them.

Similar issues with these contact on viber and talk box. Any ideas?

  • How do I connect camera in new BackBook Pro?  Face Time says no camera connected; green light above screen is on

    How do I connect camera in new MacBook Pro?  FaceTime says no camera connected, yet the green light at top of display, by camera, is on.

    Assuming you have set up your Preferences correctly in Skype, sometimes Skype doesn't seem to automatically trigger the camera. When that happens just click on the camera icon that appears at the bottom of the screen when making a call:

  • Anyboy else have Face time that doesn't work?

    I had to "upgrade" my Face Timein order to use it this last time and it won't sign on.  It keeps telling me to check my network connections and I know they are working.  Anybody else having this problem?  How do I fix this?

    Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page.
