FaceTime calls not received when iPad sleep

FaceTime does not wake my iPad when it rings.  The ringer works fine when I'm using the iPad and it's awake.  It just seems to me that I shouldn't have to call/text a person to ask them to make sure their iPad is awake so they're able to receive my call.  Shouldn't the call just go through to the other iPad similar to a cell phone?  I, my brothers and best friend all recently purchased iPad's and we all have the same issue.
Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

If the iPad is sleeping, Wi-Fi is switch off to save battery per designed. To have Wi-Fi on while the iPad is asleep, connect to the wall power supply.

  • Skype Calls not received when MacBook Air is asleep

    My MacBook Air is running Mountain Lion OS 10.8.5 with Skype 6.14. Skype video calls are received normally with notification sounds as long as the MacBook Air is not asleep. It will also receive a video call one time while asleep if Skype has first been restarted. After that when the MacBook goes back to sleep a Skype call is ignored. I haven't been able to solve this by changing Energy Saver settings in OS System Preferences or anything in Skype Preferences. I tried deleting the Skype Preferences file plist but this didn't make a difference. Could this be related to the loss of Skype sound problem widely reported? Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on how to fix this would be appreciated.

    Update - I ended up spending about an hour on the phone with a very helpful rep from AppleCare.  He was also stumped by this problem.  We ended up solving it by using a remote screen-share app that allowed him to see what my video card was sending to the external display, and he directed me over the phone to change the settings (quite funny really - it was literally "move your mouse up a tiny bit, now click, now left, etc).
    So, my problem is solved for now, albeit in a very cumbersome way.  Still amazed that there's no way to fix this properly.

  • FaceTime does not ring when or recognize a call when it comes in. The volume on computer is fine; when I make a call it works perfectly. whenever anyone calls, its dead.

    In settings, tab to "Do Not Disturb". Make shoure it is not turned on.
    If this dosn't work, please tell me what version of iOS you are running.
    Do this by going to Settings > General > About. Look under "Version"

  • Phone not ringing when in sleep mode

    Over last few days have had problem with iPhone 4S not ringing when in sleep mode. I have just spoken to Apple support. I had do not disturb scheduled , but this was staying on all the time , which I hadn't realised. This is a fault which should be sorted by 7th Jan. hope this helps anyone else with same problem, as I did search this site first.

    This is the exact problem i'm having right now, I don't know why it's happening, but when i have it on the desk and when it's in sleep mode, I can get phonecalls and it won't ring but it won't show up as missed calls either, if i get a voice message i'll get it if i take it out of sleep mode and let it sit with full reception for a minute.
    I also lose all reception while in sleep mode.

  • Why is the decline button for phone calls not available when the phone is locked? I need that button and it shows only when the phone is not locked on iOS 7

    Why is the decline button for phone calls not available when the phone is locked? I need that button and it shows only when the phone is not locked on iOS 7

    Yep. You need to touch the sleep/power button once to silence the ring, and twice in order for the call to go directly to Voicemail.
    Personally, I dont understand why Apple eliminated this. If you wish to give Apple feedback, do it here:

    I have the same symptoms with a 2011 iMac and my Senheiser Bluetooth headphones.
    10.7.3 did not correct this bug.
    I'm also using MS Messenger and notification sounds are also buffered until the headphones are switched on.

  • Receive Facetime Call on Mac when screen off

    I have an imac 2007 intel, and macbook pro 2010, both running yosemite.
    I have no problems seeing I have an incoming facetime call if the mac is on, or the screen is locked.
    On both macs I have no way to tell there is an incoming call if the screen is off. The macs are on not sleeping.
    Is there anyway to tell there is an incoming call if the screen is not on.
    thanks

  • MFP M127fn can not received fax from sleep

    I can not receive fax when printer go to sleep.
    I already upgraded lastest firmware, turn on fax event, the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet but still not working.
    There is no option to turn off auto sleep feature.
    Please help . Thanks

    I am having a similar problem. Once the printer goes to sleep, I cant get it to wake up even if I press the screen or power button on the printer itself. The only way to get it to print once it goes to sleep is by unplugging it and plugging it back in.

  • Does wifi sleep when iPad sleeps?

    If you leave wifi on and you put your ipad to sleep, does wifi power down -- or does it continue to drain battery?
    In other words, am I correct in assuming that if I want to cut down on battery use, I should turn wifi off every time I put the pad to sleep?
    (I've got the iPad 3G, but use it in airplane mode with wifi turned on... Unless I put it to sleep in which case I turn wifi off... Am I doing all of this unnecessarily?)

    I have the 3G ipad but only use wifi, haven't activated a data plan. I notice that my ipad handles wifi unlike any of my other devices. They, imac, MB Pro ipod touch, iphone, drop their wifi when in sleep but the ipad never drops it. I check this by going into Airport utility on my mac, I use an Airport Extreme base station that all my devices connect to by wifi. Airport Utility has an Advanced section that shows all wireless devices connected to the network and their signal strength, noise and transmission rate. My ipad is always showing as connected, asleep or not. The other devices will drop out of the displayed graph when they go into sleep but not the ipad. So however wifi is implemented on the ipad it's very different from all the other devices. This may be one reason why I've never had the issue of the ipad losing its wifi when coming out of sleep. Actually the only wifi problem I've ever had is that every now and then the wifi antenna symbol will completely disappear triggering an alert that says connecting for a few seconds when the antenna reappears and the connection is made again. Weird but it happens very infrequently.

  • FaceTime call not connecting?

    Hello.  My grandmother recently got a new iPad Air and I have been getting familiar with the device by testing out FaceTime and the other features it comes with. Yesterday and today, I tried to do a FaceTime call with this one friend of mine, who has an iPhone 4 or 4S, and it did not notify her that a FaceTime call was coming through.  She also tried to call me on the iPad and it did not ring.  My wi-fi is turned on and she said hers had to be turned on.  Any suggestions as to what we can do to fix the problem?
