FaceTime does not work on UAE model

My ipad was bought from Dubai, UAE and FaceTime does not work on it. On investigation I came to know that FaceTime is blocked in UAE. Fine I thought FaceTime is a software thing not hardware and after updating iOS why does it still not work ? Can we do anything to make face time work ? It's not banned in my country and FaceTime works perfect on my iPhone
Help please

Thanks I now use Skype but learnt a valuable lesson will buy my next ipad from USA or Canada where nothing is blocked.
However my money got wasted cause I wanted the luxury of a big screen for FaceTime communication
Thanks dude for your help

    The front-facing camera is available for use even without FaceTime.  If you are having issues with your front-facing camera, I suggest troubleshooting the issue:
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Why facetime does not working with any carrier in u.s expect att although the iphone is factory unlocked

    why facetime does not working with any carrier in u.s expect att although the iphone is factory unlocked

    Facetime only works via WiFi. Are you trying to set up Facetime with a T-Mobile account?

    I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but  it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number  but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID.   Please Help me I speak Spanish so  if my English is not ok  I´m sorry about it.
    Do you think that apple has to   reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s?? 

    I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more.  I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
    Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

  • Last update to ios6 - worst ever, facetime does not work as it used to, problems with skype

    last update to ios6 - worst ever, facetime does not work as it used to, problems with skype, losing connection or no9t connecting facetime to face time. Do something with it.

    I'm not sure yet, but It may be as simple as "settings", "FaceTime" "Off"

  • HT6601 FaceTime does not work with Yosemite...what a pity!

    Upgraded my iMac to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 and suddenly my FaceTime doesn't work.... Looks like FaceTime is not compatible with this OS... What a Pity and a waste of time not being able to use features in your computer just because it looks like Apple made a boo-boo on this upgraded version...Tsk Tsk!

    Several million people, including me, are using FaceTime with Yosemite. Do you have a question?

  • Why FaceTime is not working in UAE

    How can I use it there? Is there anyway to install it
    Or it has to do with the network functionality and no work arounds can be done

    But I bought iPhone from etisalat and now I am outside UAE
    If you bought the phone in the UAE, it will NEVER (repeat NEVER) have FaceTime.
    And, in case it's unclear, "never" means there is not way to put FaceTime on the phone. If you want Facetime, sell that phone and purchase one that has Facetime.
    Best of luck.

  • My Facetime does not work on my home wi-fi(I use airport). Please help me troubleshoot.

    As I indicated, I have iPhone 4 using 5.0.1. I can use Facetime using wi-fi everywhere else but never at home. I'm wondering if it has something to do with my router and using Airport to connect wirelessly. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm not a tech guy so any lay explanation of what I should be looking for is appreciated. Thank you!

    I too am having the same issue as the OP.

  • PXE boot not working on some models

    We have a very strange situation that I was hoping someone could shed some light on.
    setup:
    ZDM 7 IR4HP1
    multiple VLANS
    situation:
    PXE boot does not work on any model workstation other than dell 760 if connected to the network in any valn other than VLAN1 where the server resides.
    dell 760 can be PXe booted in any vlan
    any other model machine can only be PXE booted in VLAN 1 which is where the PXE server is.
    PXE debug log shows nothing recorded at all from machines other than the 760's
    non-760 desktops will recieve the Proxy address of the PXE server, etc, but for some reason they show multiple gateways and the correct gateway is always last. the extra gateway numbers are coming from switches.
    I have no clue as to why dell 760's will PXE boot perfectly every time and in any VLAN (they only get one gateway and it's the correct one) but any other type of machine will fail every time if they are not in VLAN 1
    sometimes the non-760's will get PXE error E78 No boot file name ...
    other times no PXE error but an error "could not contact the boot server"
    HELP!

    I have just encountered this issue myself (ZCM10.2.1). I have no idea where the issue is coming from, within windows, linux or osx its perfect... Today I blew away my entire ZCM install (working on migrating) but still have the same issue!!! Were using HP Procurve switches using OSPF for routing, I just restarted our core cisco router but can't verify if it helped, I'll let you know.

  • My Facetime audio does not work on my MacBook

    My Facetime audio does not work on my MacBook, video is fine.  Volume set to max, internal mic is "on", mute is 'off'.  Advise

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use FaceTime. There's a FaceTime Support Community where everybody uses FaceTime.

  • Microphone does not work in Facetime

    Hi
    I read other posts and in Maverik I didn't find simmilar problem, for most people their microphone does not work after few minutes, but in my case, microphone does not work at all in Facetime, so I can hear the other end, but they can not hear me! This happened after updating Mavericks.
    My Mac specs:
    Macbook Pro 2013
    OSx 10.9.1 (Mavericks)
    things I already tested:
    I tried to use headphone and without headphone, but it didn't make any difference
    Microphone works fine in Skype and other softwares (Audacity, YahooMessenger, etc.)
    Tried with WiFi and with Ethernet cable
    Internet speed is 2.3MBps
    Router's firewall does not have any restriction for certain ports
    Tried turning facetime Off and On
    Tried to call iPhone 5s, iPad2 and MacBook Pro each in different network and different countries!
    ... and finally searching internet for hours (which obviously came up with nothing)
    I'll be thankful if somebody help me through, all suggestions are welcome, so please don't hesitate to post.

    Same issue here....
    8-core Mac Pro, Lion, Original External iSight camera connected via FireWire 400 through the FireWire jack on the 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    Audio and video work fine using iChat and making video clips through any/all apps.
    However, using FaceTime.....incoming audio and video are fine, outgoing video is fine, but outgoing audio is missing.  Nobady can hear me.
    Sorry guys...you can't doll this one up or spin it in any other direction......it's a bug pure and simple.
    Feel free to fix it whilst you're dealing with all the other problems that Lion has.

  • TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).  I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work)  - HELP!!

    My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
    I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow). 
    In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work. 
    I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
    Here is the kicker!  In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
    I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
    Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
    thanks and regards

    I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.
