Facetime iPhone 4 to 5 not working

I have an iPhone 4 (iOS6) and my friend an iPhone 5 (iOS6). When we try to facetime each other it just won't work. We are both connected to the same Wifi, accounts are activated and we can both facetime with other friends. It says "connecting" but the connection never get's established.
There is no logical explanation for this, so I was wondering that it could maybe be because it was a problem between the iPhone 4 and 5 connection?
Does anyone have suggestion to solve this issue?
Thanks for your help.

Check to see how each of you are receiving your Facetime calls, phone number versus Apple ID, and then check to see what way you are calling them. If one is receiving by phone number, make sure you are calling that phone number rather than the Apple ID. Other than that, I don't see a real reason the two shouldn't connect. I just did a Facetime with my son tonight. We are both on iOS 6, he has an iPhone 4, I have a 4S. Sorry I cannot duplicate an iPhone 5 issue here.

  • Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

    Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.   Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything.   Crazy. 
    After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection  ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    facetime on my iphone 4s is not working what can i do

    Even new purchases are not always fully up to date.  Check and see by going to Settings > General > Software Update and see if it says it is up to date or not.
    Also keep in mind that you need a WiFi connection for FaceTime.

    The iPhone 4 may not work with a cut down SIM. Get a microSIM from your carrier when you set up service.

  • If my iPhone 5c is not working and I have to trade it for a new phone can I get an IPhone 5s or do I have to trade for another 5c?

    If my IPhone 5c is not working and I have to trade it for a new phone can I get a 5s or do I have to trade it in for another 5c?

    A warranty or out of warranty replacement through Apple will be for the same model, same capacity, same colour.

  • I just bought an iPhone 4s. Now the search iphone function is not working. When I swipe the screen to the left, the search box appears but when I type what I want to search for, there is no action. Please help.

    I just got an iphone 4s. Now the search iphone function is not working. When I swipe the start screen, the search box shows up. But when I type what I want to search, there is no action. Please help.

    Try this...
    You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

  • The home button on my iphone 5 is not working.

    The home button on my iphone 5 is not working, so I'm using assistive touch.  How do I close open apps without double tapping the home button?

    The other possible things you can try would include...
    Inserting the lightning connector and applying a little bit of pressure up under the Home button.
    Some folks have cleaned the Home button with a few drops of isopropic alochol caring to not get it on your screen.  This is only going to get things working again if it has been gummed up through normal use
    If you are still within the one-year warranty or extended it with Apple Care don't try any of these steps just take it to Apple.
