Facetime connection problems

Running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1 on my MacBook Pro 13 inch 2010
I can receive inbound calls on FaceTime for Mac, no problems encountered with all inbound FaceTime calls
But I can not connect outbound FaceTime calls, the receiving party will receive a ring or two but it would not connect
Would appreciate any help
Thank you very much

Hello,
I have the same problems, and the solution I found is that when the conections fails, then I go to the preferences of Facetime on my iMac, and disconnect the account ID. Then i turn it on again, and repeat the email ID for conecttions, and then, it works, till the new fail... I'm trying to contact Apple Support to know if it will be an update for facetime for Mac OS.  I tryied the conections between iphone and ipad, and there is not problems. The problem is only between my iMac and iPhone o iPad...
I'm waiting for the update!!!!
Thanks and sorry for my english....

  • Facetime connection problems using Verizon mifi 4510L device

    Anyone having problems with iPhone facetime connection being dropped when using this wifi device? Phone/facetime work perfectly when on other wifi connections. Thanks, Matt

    The Verizon 4G network has terrible latency, so, while downloads (and uploads) can be fast, it can take them a while to get started, so any exchange that needs a fast response is likely to be unstable. The network also sometimes stops working for several seconds at a time. I have a Verizon LC-11 wireless hotspot and I'm not happy with it.

  • FaceTime connection problems since IOS6. Are there any solutions?

    I have an iphone 4 my friend has iphone 4S.  We have both successfully used FaceTime previously as she is based in another country.  We can use iMessages but neither can connect to the other with FaceTime.  It calls but then says Connection Lost.  I've searched everywere and I contacted my carrier and they told me to do a reset which I did (and I told my friend to do it too) but it still doesn't work. Is this one of the problems with the release of IOS 6?   Does anyone know what Apple are doing about the problem?  Thanks.

    You have Adware installed. Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons | Plugins and disable '''My Web Search'''. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_web_search
    Also, update Firefox to the latest version which is 4.0.1 by clicking Help | About Firefox | Check For Updates button.
    In addition, update Adobe Flash via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  • HT204380 Imac facetime connectivity problems

    When I attempt to connect to Facetime (IMac Mountain Lion) I get the message:

    I could connect when I initiated the FT connection, but every time my friend tried to FT me it kept saying connecting but didn't.
    So the problem is not your iPhone then.

  • Facetime Connecting Problems

    How come all of a sudden my facetime has stopped connecting?
    Is it because of an upgrade?

    There have been numerous reports of FaceTime problems in the last week. It is unclear what the problem is. Following is just one of many discussions regarding the issue: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6096640?tstart=120

  • Facetime connection problems since the IOS 6 update?

    Since I upgraded to IOS6 I get the following messages when I'm on facetime: Poor Connection, The video will resume automatically when the connection improves. Connection lost. Never had this problem before.

    Same here. Although search returns results anything I select brings up a blank page on my iPhone 4. Also when I go the purchased tab, I see the films or tv shows but when I tap into them it brings up a blank page again. What is happening.

  • My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

  • I am having difficulties in maintaining a facetime connection through my ipad.  It will generally work for 20 seconds or so and then the frame freezes. It is difficult to follow our 2 year grandson. Any fixes?

    I am having difficuties in maintaining a Facetime connection through my ipad 2. It will generally work for 20 seconds or so, and then the frame freezes. Sometimes we have audio with a freeze frame picture. It is difficult to maintain the attention of a 2 year grandson anyway, but the the lost connections make it impossible. Any fixes?

    This is a connection problem with wifi.   Either your wifi is failing, or your internet service is not fast enough for video feed.

  • HT204380 Why won't my FaceTime connect with others?

    Why won't my FaceTime connect with others?

    Ok, so sometimes apple's servers may crash, temporarily. Just check the following site: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/systemstatus/
    and it will notify you of any crashes. The link above is for the UK. Change to adapt to your country if you are outside of the UK. If your problem isn't listed I am sure it will be resolved within 24 hours. If this problem persists best thing is to contact apple.
    Hope this helped :)

  • Why am I suddenly getting audio static with FaceTime connection?

    I recently started getting audio statice when making a FaceTime connection. The other person can hear me, but I get only static. The image is clear. Is this a problem on their end or mine? Is it the iPad or a router issue? Regular connection to the net is fine and playing of music from I tunes is fine with no static.
    I'm puzzled.

    shambles,
    You could try to reinstall using the full three step way (otherwise strange things may linger):
    Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

  • FaceTime connectivity

    Facetime works fine with iMac and iPhone but has multiple weak connection /reconnecting issues on iPad. Any ideas?

    Probably not a FaceTime problem but a wifi connection problem.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Ipad 3 FaceTime connection

    CAn anyone advise me why the FaceTime connection is so poor not just mine but the person at the other end is experiencing the same problem I.e. grainy, pixelated, freezing etc etc

    Videophone Apps like Facetime ( and Skype and others ) do rely on the network speed and stability alone. Data is compressed on transfer and is processed in realtime on the fly on the two persons device, that's the only part the software has to manage.
    But if the Data is not fast enough coming in, then there are artefacts, pixelish videos and so . In other words  there is nothing you can do.

  • Timeouts and connection problems after 5.1(2) upgrade

    AIM/chat and some other programs are having timeout/connection problems after upgrade to 5.1(2). I am using S241 also. The connection problems stopped when the IPS was set to bypass. Rebuilt IPS and left sigs at default settings and problem is still happening. I am not seeing any of the IPs that are having the problem in the Event Viewer or on the Events in the IDM.
    Any known issues with the 5.1(2) that would cause this type of problem?

    I don't know specifically, but I did notice that 5.1(3) was released today.
