Why won't my iPhone 5s allow me to answer FaceTime calls on the new iOS 8.0.2?

In addition to my iPhone 5s not allowing me to answer any FaceTime calls, my iPad Air freezes the FaceTime screen and has to be restored to be able to use it again. My Macbook Pro freezes the FaceTime screen and the visual is always blurry. In addition it drops the call after no longer then five minutes. EXTREMELY IRRITATED. Feels like I'm dealing with another set of Dell products.

Hi, Farticus10.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

HT204053 Hi, my husband has downloaded ios7 and now he is receiving my iMessages/facetime calls. Obviously we both use the same apple Id. How do i keep using the same apple id on both devices, but disable my iMessages etc from his phone??

My husband has upgraded ios7. His iphone and mine have the same apple id. he has activated "icloud" which i have never activated before. He is receiving my imessages and facetime calls. How do i disable this yet still continue using our shared apple id on both devices????
thanks

Short term solution, do this on both devices
Settings > iCloud > Shut off anything you don't want shared
Long term solution (actual solution)
You need seperate Apple IDs for iCloud. iTunes and iCloud are not the same.
Create a new Apple ID > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
On one of the devices go Settings > iCloud > Delete Account > Sign in with the new Apple ID
This will seperate your Contacts, Calendars, Messages etc.
You both can continue to use the same Apple ID for iTunes and share apps and music

Facetime call using the same APpLe Id on iPad and Mac

The FaceTime call using the same apple ID with the new iPad and iMac cannot put through to myself. In this case I do not want to get a new apple ID for FaceTime what can I do? I want to use the current apple Id.

I saw one post where a user said dust got inside the small microphone hole. Using a vacuum cleaner removed the dust and restored the audio.

I want to be able to face time also using my ipad2 to my laptop especially if one of the members of the family is traveling. Thanks.

thanks. your answer was correct, clearer. I have another question, maybe you can answer. I just purchase my ipad2 2 days ago. yesterday, there was a sound. today there is no sound. there is a sound only in movies and you tube and music. but no sound on all apps and keyboards. I look it up and seems like ther are few that have this problem. I called walmart coz I bought it there and they told me that they have not heard that before but if I can't fix it, just return it and exchange it with anew one since I have 14 days to do that. I tried rebooting it and still won't work. Should I just restore it?

3 iphones in household.All use same apple ID.But all contacts get mixed between phones and facetime calls come in from other contacts.Ho can we change this so our phone information isn't visible to each other?

Use separate Apple IDs for each family member and use Family Sharing features of those things (if any) that you do want to share. https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

HT204380 How does a user of multiple Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac laptop) designate which devices will ring when an incoming Facetime call comes in. If all three are online, should they all be able to accept an incoming video call?

A friend of mine has an iPhone with a cellular data plan, a Macbook Pro, and a mini-iPad. She's been using Facetime, but says that all of the devices used to ring at the time of an incoming Facetime call. Now only her iPhone rings. How do you set whichever device you want to ring?

James: I agree. Please keep them shorter.
The answers to both questions are no.
The iPad is NOT a computer replacement. It is a mobile device.
The iPad can not stream tro the iPhone nor an iPod.
Hope this helps....

Apple recently merged all my devices so that if I miss messages or facetime calls on one device, they get forwarded to my other devices. how do I UNDO this so this no longer happens?

If you don't want them to be unified, don't use the same Apple ID for FaceTime and iMessage on our devices. Go to Settings>Messsages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID. Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

Can my other devices open receive my FaceTime calls if we share an Apple ID

Is it possible for others on my Apple ID to be able to receive my FaceTime calls?

No, only if you use a different e-mail address on the other device.

My iPad is receiving phone calls, not FaceTime calls, that my iPhone under the same iCloud account is receiving, how do I stop this?

I have an older iPad that we use at my office for Pandora. My iPhone is connected to the same iCloud account as my iPhone is & once in a while my iPad will receive a phone call, not a FaceTime call, from one of my contacts that's trying to call me. It will say the contact's name up at the top like usual, it plays my iPhone ringtone, says "Slide to Answer" but also beneath that it says "from my iPhone." I still receive the phone call on my iPhone but I also receive it on my iPad & I'd obviously like it to stop. Can anybody help me out?

You can do this on the phone and the iPad. Settings>FaceTime>iPhone Cellular Calls>Off.

How can I remove a device from my Facetime calls?

Facetime Version 3.0

I have made a facetime call with my ID from someone's device. Now that device can get my calls. How can I remove it without accessing the device?

Hey abram from white plains,
Thanks for the question. If you are signed into an Apple service on a device that you no longer have access to, and would like to revoke that access, you can simply change your Apple ID password:

Sounds like a hardware failure.
Make an appointment at the genius bar and take it in for them to look at. It will probably need to be replaced.

Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

How do I answer a facetime call on my macbook air?

I received a factime call on my new MacBook Air laptop and was unable to answer it. It kept ringing but there was no place to either accept or decline the call as there is on my iPad 2. How do I answer a facetime call?
Also, how do I enlarge the image on the MacBook Air to get it to be full screen? I clicked the little green circle at the top of the image to maximize it, but it didn't do anything.

I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account. why is this?

I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account.
How can I change the setup so on the email only the iPad rings and on the phone number only the phone rings?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.
