Facetime between iphone4 and iphone5
I bought my dad an iphone4. I am just not able to do facetime between iphone4 and iphone5. I have wifi on for the iphone 4. All the facetime settings are set as per the apple setup guide in both the phones. Somehow the facetime is not working. Can someone help me fix the issue?

Facetime between iPad2 and MacBook Air worked fine here in the USA. The iPad2 is now in Rome, Italy and we can't connect internationally. We both can hear the caller ringing in and can see who is trying to call, but after accepting the call we cannot connect. No voice, no video. iPad is successfully sending and receiving eMails, but no Factime connection What's up?
I am curious if possibly the hotel has some sort of VOIP block on. Have you tried Skype? Did you talk to the hotel staff? My husband is traveling to Milan in a couple of days and I wonder if he will run into the same issue. He has had no problems from Istanbul but he is staying in a corporate apartment there. If you find an answer please post back. Thanks

Is it possible to use Facetime between Mac and iPad with the same Apple ID?
Hello,
I have a MacBook Pro and an iPad. May MacBook is used by my wife and me at home. I take the Pad with me when I travel. On the MacBook I have and Apple ID registered. It is the same I use with the iPad. Do I need a differnt ID for my wife if we want to use Facetime? Or do I need to create a seperate user-profile for my wife on the MacBook?
Thanks for your feedback in advance.Hi
I use the same apple id for the same thing when i travel between myself and people at home over my iphone and the ipad i leave at home always seems to work of for me
I normally just give it a little test before i leave each time by signing in of both devices and trying ringing myself
Hope this helps -
FAcetime between iPad and MacBook
I cannot establish a FaceTime connection between my iPad mini and MacBook Air. Keeps dropping instantly
I am not sure that you can FaceTime between two devices that have the same ID as they are both identified as 'you'. That way, if someone calls you on FaceTime, they will both ring and you can use whichever device you want or prefer to use. Does FaceTime to other people work okay?

Using facetime between itouch and iphone
We are trying to set up facetime between an itouch and an iphone 4 without success; it says they are each in their contacts, but won't work.
Is there a way to set them up that we are missing?

FaceTime between ipad2 and macbook pro
I have an iPad2 and a MacBook Pro.
I am trying to get Facetime between the two, and when I dial from the iPad2 to the MacBook or vice versa I get a busy signal.
How can I get the iPad2 and MacBook to do facetime?
Do I need to have different emailaddress or apple ID for the iPad2 and a different one for the MacBook?
Thank you,Running into the same problem Pashy. I can facetime my husband from my macbook pro. But when I try to contact him using my ipad 2 nothing happens. I try contacting him thru the AIM address listed in my contacts and nothing happens when I click the link however it will work with the mobile numbers.

FaceTime between Mac and iPad with one iCloud account?
I moved my MobileMe account to iCloud and want to set up my Mac so I can call my new iPad with FaceTime. In the iCloud system preferences I have "Mail and Notes" unchecked but the sole email account in Mail preferences is pointed to the iCloud mail server and I am receiving Mail. The account appears in Mail and seems to be functioing normally. If I check the "Mail and Notes" option in the system preferences a second iCloud Mail account appears in Mail with identical contents to the one that is there with this option unchecked. I'd rather not have this duplicate set of mailboxes in Mail so I'm leaving the option unchecked (is this OK?). I added my AOL address as a second email address to my Apple ID so I can use my AIM account with FaceTime and have set FaceTime to receive calls to my AIM address and I have added a contact with my iCloud email address.
On my iPad, I have set up FaceTime to receive calls to my iCloud email address and added a contact with my AIM address. This set up works when calling my Mac from my iPad but does not work the other way. How do I get it to work in both directions?
Thanks for any insights.In partial answer to my own question, it seems that Mail and Notes option in iCloud system prefs on the Mac should be checked. The duplicate account that is then created in Mail (which points to the original account so it's not really a duplicate, as CS1sound pointed out to me) can be disabled in the Mail program prefs. This eliminates the dual mailbox sets in Mail.
Regarding the FaceTime calling between my Mac and iPad, that seems to have been resolved as well. The FaceTime iCloud account required more characters than the password for the old MobileMe account. This was unknown to me until I tried to view the iCloud account from within FaceTime preferences, when I got a message saying I needed a longer password. When I entered the new password it updated the FaceTime password and also updated my iCloud password (the password associated with my Apple ID). So now everything seems to be working nominally.
For others experiencing problems with FaceTime calling between Mac and iPad I suggest making sure your Apple ID password is at least 8 chars long, has letters (at least one cap) and at least one numeral. (This is the spec my FaceTime error message provided). Then attach an AIM address to your Apple ID as a "rescue" email address. Apple ID will send an email with a verification link to this address which must be clicked and this account will then be associated with your iCloud account (along with your original iCloud email address). Next, set the iPad up to use the iCloud email for Mail and FaceTime and create a FaceTime contact with (which receives calls to) the AIM address, for calling the Mac. Then set the Mac up to use the iCloud email address for Mail and set FaceTime up with the iCloud email, but with a "receives calls at" address pointing to the AIM account, then create a contact with the iCloud address, for calling the iPad.
Posted this because I saw others have had the same problem. Sorry for the verbosity but this is just a blow by blow recounting of what I did. I hope some of the board gods and moderators will vet this for mistakes. I don't want to mislead any fellow pilgrims, but it worked for me . -

Facetime on iPhone4S and iPad2
Arizona and Ohio iPad2s (on the same apple account) exchanged Facetime conversations for weeks easily and without incident.
I bought an iPhone4S and now have trouble when the Arizona iPad2 tries to contact my Ohio iPad2. The incoming facetime call from Arizona selects the Ohio iPhone4s, not the Ohio iPad2.
Must I turn off the iPhone4s to get the facetime call from the Arizona iPad2 to reach the Ohio iPad2?
All devices are now on version 5 of operating system.

How can email sync between iphone4 and mac?
I want to read email once on either my iPhone4 or Mac, then delete the email from BOTH DEVICES. I don't want to read the same email on my iPhone4 and my Mac.
Do I need to manage this with my internet service provider (in thsi case Cox), or are there setting in iPhone 4 to take care of this duplicate email phenomenon?
Thanks.it will only remove deleted mails when you sync it with the computer
and only one accounts that are set as sync accounts so not when you set them up on the iphone itself
in which case it's a standalone account not a sync one
synced accounts are created in the info tab on the iphone when connected to itunes
otherwise you have to make sure that your email account is pop3 rather then imap and that it's set to delete
mails from server when downloaded that should work
but it needs to be set on both the iphone and the computer -
Unable to Merge Contacts between iPhone4 and Outlook
I am using Outlook 2007. I typically update contact information on my iPhone since it's always with me. I did this with my iPhone 3GS and did not notice any problems syncing. I cleaned up my address book, removing any duplicates, in Outlook. Not sure if it's the iPhone4 or version of itunes, but when I sync my contacts I'm not given the option to "merge" data. The sync seems to respond in one of two ways. 1) Overwriting my updated contact information on the iPhone4.
So I lose my new contact info.
2) Creating a new (duplicate)contact instead of updating the
existing contact information in Outlook.
Can someone tell me if my settings are wrong? Itunes only gives you the option of "replace information on device" or "replace information on computer".
Please advise. You help is appreciated.When syncing iPhone contacts with a supported address book application on your computer the first time - if your iPhone already includes at least one contact and the same with the supported address book application on your computer, you are provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data. After the initial merge in this situation, the sync process for this data should be a bidirectional or true sync process between your iPhone contacts and the supported address book application on your computer. There won't be another merge prompt and there shouldn't need to be.
iTunes give one option in this regard - replace contacts on your iPhone with what is available in the supported address book application on your computer. After doing this, the sync process between the two should be a bidirectional or true sync process.
Try resetting the sync history on your computer, which is done via iTunes preferences under the Devices tab. -
Facetime between iphone and another smartphone.
are facetime over the cellular can be used between iPhone 4s with iOS6 and another smartphone with front camera?
The iPhone does support other video calling applications such as Skype and Tango which are cross platform. The integration isn't quite as nice but they work to call non-iOS users.
Best of luck.
