Facetime: iPhone 4 to iPhone 5 uses plan minutes?!?!?!
I have a iPhone 4 and my friend has an iPhone 5. We Facetime all the time, and she just recently found out that her minutes from her phone bill was being all used up. I never had seen this before and i tried searching this up online but no help. So i just wanted to know if Factiming would use your carrier minutes or wifi only?
No it does not count against your voice plan. If you are using Wi-Fi, it does not count against your plan at all. If you are using a cellular connection, it counts against the data plan, but not the phone plan.

Does using apps on your Iphone 4 use up minutes on your monthly plan?
Thanks for answering

Does Call Forwarding use Plan Minutes
If I forward iPhone calls to another phone, does AT&T charge me for every minute of the forwarded call (even though I didn't use the iPhone to talk)?? I would like to forward my calls to my OnStar hands free phone system when I am in the car (but don't want to pay Verizon for 30 minutes AND AT&T for 30 minutes for a 30 minute, forwarded call).
Before you say "no way they would do this..", read this from the Verizon call forwarding support page:
+Airtime applies to forwarded/transferred calls even if you send the call to wireline telephones.+
http://support.vzw.com/features/callingfeatures/callforwarding.htmlThe AT&T people I have talked to "glaze over" when you talk about iPhone. I was hoping just one person in the forum would know (and do this on a regular basis). This answer will decide if I get an iPhone or not. I don't trust an answer from an AT&T call center or showroom floor salesperson. On the other hand, I trust the experts on this forum totally.

If, using an iPad connected to wifi, I made a call to an iPhonxe 4S not connected to wifi using FaceTime, would it cost the person using the iPhone anything?
At your end you will be using your WiFi signal. At the other end the iPhone would be using the 3G cellular signal. The cellular plan would need to be provisioned to allow FaceTime calls over cellular.

I have two pnones on my account...my iPhone 4 and my wife's crappy old Samsung. I pre-ordered an iPhone 4S and plan to give my iPhone 4 to my wife and I will use the new 4S. How do I switch the 4 to her number once I make the switch to a new 4S?
Just call yur provider and they will set it up with you.
This is what I do, when I get a new iphone and give mine to my wife. -
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...... -
i use a macbook pro which came with facetime i have an iphone 4S as well. whenever i use the wireless on my iphone i can facetime with ease however when i use the same wireless for my mac to facetime the call always gets disconnected.
To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.

Does tethering my iPad to my iPhone 4s use more data than using an iPad that has it's own data plan?
No, it won't work.. the Airports are not media devices.. they have no brains .. no media extensions.. and itunes must be running on a computer.
You can however watch movies from storage but not with itunes..
See how people use tools like VLC to get around Apple's built in iTunes limitations.

Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?
I have even turned off LTE. Cut off my cellular data off of apps. Still uses data I switched back to my iPhone 4 cause I had used my
Data in 2 weeks!I have the same problem on my 4S 64G: I updated to 7.1.1 and burned through my cellular data allowance without running anything that ought to be using it. I incurred an overage charge on Thursday, my new billing cycle started on Friday, and I immediately had used 3/4 of my allowance for the new cycle. I typically do not use my allowance in an entire month so burning through it in a day or two twice in one week is very much not right.
Possibly unrelated or not: last night I was out, did NOT use any apps that should use cellular data, and came home and my phone refused to connect to my home wifi despite turning this and that on and off. I burned cellular allowance while wifi was available.
It seems like someting on my phone, whether an app or the iOS itself, is using cellular data even while my phone is not in use. All I could do is turn off Cellular Data in Settings but that very much diminishes the usefulness of a phone that has served me well -- without data overages! -- for several years.
Please fix this, Apple! -
Is it possible to buy an iphone to use in the US and the rest of the world without buying a monthly plan? I'd like to travel without two camera, two cell phones and use my iphone as a backup camera and phone for texting and short calls during international travel. Can an iphone take sim cards as some smart phones?
If you buy an unlocked phone from Apple you should be able to use it with any carrier. It'll be more expensive but you get the freedom to choose.

I am traveling to Australia. On the way, in airports, can I use my iphone to use fb messaging or email to communicate with people at my destination? Do I need an international data plan?
You want to call and get the internation data plan. its 25 dollars for 100 mb. if you dont buy that plan it is like 20.43 per MB. Very expesnive. You have the option to just turn cellular data off and only use wifi. if you dont buy the global data poackage your going to want to do that because your phone will use data even if your not doing naything. That 25 dollar data package works for most countrys

Can iphone 4 use facetime with other phone?
Hi,can iphone 4 use facetime or video call with sony ericsson satio?do need to install any software?
yes the above said, yahoo messenger came out with the update, which you can do video calling from your iphone 4/ipod touch 4G to a pc/mac. It can be done through wi-fi or 3G
There is another app called Tango which you can do video chat cross-platformed, meaning, you can make video call with another device that isn't an iphone 4, such as an android phone, they should also have tango, once they download the tango, and if their e-mail is saved in your contact, you will then be able to make video calls. can be done in wi-fi or 3G
*if you have unlimited 3G data, then I wouldn't worry, but if you have a data cap, then not recommeneded as it can eat up your data pretty fast. -
