Facetime issues on ios6

I updated to ios 6 on my ipod touch 4 and now facetime gets this horrible interference it never had on ios4 and 5. Anybody knows if a fix is coming? Or me and my girl are the only ones experiencing this?

Your response did not solve my question - or issue. Not sure how you get 10 points if you post it as solving the issue.
Points are awarded when the OP marks a response as having solved their issue.
If a response did not solve your issue, for what logical reason did you choose to mark it as solved?
Also, keep in mind we have no way of knowing what steps have already been taken unless you tell us. Leaving details out in the original post is simply a waste of everyone's time.
Good luck on getting your issue resolved considering your attitude.

I have a FaceTime issue on my iPhone 5. Recently updated my iPhone with OS 7.0.4

Hello there,
I am not able to connect to anyone via FaceTime. It just does not connect.
Recently I have updated my iPhone to iOS version 7.0.4 which should resolved any FaceTime issues but it has gone the other way and stopped my good working FaceTime app. Any steps which I should follow? Instagram is also not working properly, it wont upload photos, but I am least bothered about this as FaceTime is my real concern.
Thanks,

Hey there VRG18,
It sounds like you are unable to connect to anyone using FaceTime. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3367
Resolve issues with FaceTime calls
If you encounter issues making or receiving FaceTime calls, follow these steps:
Ensure that your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is up to date.
Verify that FaceTime is enabled in Settings > FaceTime.
If the issue persists or if you see the message "Waiting for Activation", try toggling FaceTime off and then on again. See the Activating FaceTime section of this article for more information.
If you don't see the FaceTime setting, ensure that Camera and FaceTime are not disabled in Settings > General > Restrictions.
Verify that the date and time are set correctly:
Tap Settings > General > Date & Time and turn on Set Automatically.
Verify that both parties are connected to a Wi-Fi network or a cellular data connection and have an active Internet connection.
FaceTime uses push notifications to send and receive invitations. Verify push functionality using Mail or other applications that use this feature.
Verify that you have the correct phone number or email address.
Restart your device.
If using FaceTime over a Wi-Fi network, proceed to the "Wi-Fi network issues" section in this article.
There is additional troubleshooting in the article if needed.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
How do I get update to 6.0.2?
Will that even help?

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

Facetime issue becoming overbearing!!!

Has APPLE released any troubleshooting on how to fix this Facetime issue?! It's becoming overbearing
My Apple ID and password are verified but I cannot access it. I tried synching it with iTunes, changing the time zone etc but that still didnt work
Does anybody out there have any solutions?

Hi catherineh14,
If you are having an issue with all other FaceTime users being unable to see or hear you from your iPhone, and you have already tried resetting you phone, I would suggest the next step is to test in a different Wi-Fi environment.
If this does not resolve your issue, back up the data on your iPhone and then restore it as a new device. See this article -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Is anyone else having FaceTime issue?

I am having FaceTime issues and wanted to know if anyone else was having issues? It says server is busy on my iMac and won't let me access Face Time

To resolve this i went to generals: App store and clicked on my apple id. when a pop up shows click on view Applie id account. There select the payment process and select NONE in the type of card instead of your visa or mastercard. save it and then you can try getting into facetime., It should be good. It worked for me. Good luck. Lemme know how it goes

Facetime is not in the App store. It is part of the iOS. You access Facetime on the phone via the contact section. Facetime needs to be activated in Settings. The only reason you may not have it is if you purchased the device in an area where Facetime is prohibited by law.

TS1398 Why does my ipad keep saying poor connection on FaceTime ever since ios6

Why does my ipad keep saying poor connection on FaceTime since we went on ios6

Facetime iphone 4 ios6 lost connection call : solution here

if u been frustrated trying to make a video call with facetime there is the solution : back up on itunes and save your pics to your computer in a folder
restore your device go to setting > general >> reset >> erease all content and settings . once your device its deletes as new . setup entering location , lenguage etc etc . and you will need to get a free icloud account . when u have it and enter it to your iphone4 ios 6 , and use your new icloud account with icloud and facetime . now try to make a facetime call and it need to works . then connect to itunes and select "as new iphone" and try to get the apps and you will get em and your friends contacts list , i reccomend you write your buddy list on a piece paper just in case ..
well i was frustrated with this problem . but i solve it doing all that
it worked on iphone 4 ios6 but you can try it with another device

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.

Sound issues in iOS6

I'm having random sound issues since upgrading iPhone to iOS6. For instance, after using iMessage I will sleep the phone without exiting iMessage. 5 mins later I will have messages sent to me but there were no sound notifications indicating such. Only if I exit iMessage prior to sleeping the phone will I hear notifications of new texts or iMessages. Also, random sounds like the swoosh when sending an email will mute randomly. I have to shut the phone off and restart before it works again. Why is this happening?

If you have a iMessage open and into a message, normally it will not sound. I think it is because you already have it open and in it. That is what I have noticed.

Facetime issue - after installing a new logic board due to liquid damage.

I installed a new logic board this week.. after installing the os x operation system and then upgrading it to mavericks and i used migration assistant to load my backuped user from an external disk.
I tried to log in using my apple id ( which is verified) it couldn't log in beacuse "could not sign in. please check your network connection and try again"
and i did all the updates of mavericks. i tried also before installing mavericks i thougt upgrading will fix it..
i saw on forums that i should add 2 DNS's (8888 and 8844) didn't work.
i tried connection to my phones hotspot - didn't work.
i also went to the firewall thing to allow it recieve cennections..
pleassee help!!
is there a way to reinstall the facetime or something?!?!?!

My problem solved could possiblly be your solution: Check to make sure your system serial number is being read by your logic baord. If the tech forgot to reenter the serial number, it's a known issue for Facetime and Messages (apparantly not know enough yet though, no tech bulliten exists on the topic).
I spent several days trouble shooting my inablility to login to my account with Facetime or Messages (other cloud services worked) after upgrading to Mavericks. I went as far as doing a clean install on my hard drive after spending two hours with a baffled mac tech in a retail store and many hours searching the message boards.
I have never had a logic board (or hard drive) replaced on my Macbook Air, but somehow after the Mavericks update the logic board stopped reading the serial number on my system. It took a call to Apple and a ticket opened to engineering to figure this out (after I uploaded log files).
They were puzzled I experienced this without a logic board replacement, but it was indeed the root cause of the facetime and messages apps failing to log in, and said they'd run in to it recently more than once.
Wish I knew how to post this unbiquitously across all the boards for folks to troubleshoot by simply looking at their system info in the Apple menu; Apple scheduled an appointment for me at an Apple genius bar and it was fixed in fifteen minutes.

Facetime issues

Facetime works great, the only issue I have is that it wont wake my iPod up when there is an incoming call. I know it should since it does it for some other folks I know. Is there some setting I'm missing, is this a known issue, is there any thing I can do to fix it?
Thank you for your time.

Welcome to Discussions, jroro_99
(1) Wake your iPod manually and ask someone to FaceTime you again.
If your iPod still does not recognize an incoming call after you wake it, turning your iPod's Settings > Airplane Mode ON and then back OFF to refresh the wi-fi connection may get FaceTime working again. Test by letting your iPod go back to sleep to see if it wakes for a call now.
(2) If refreshing does not help after you let your iPod go back to sleep, restart your iPod:

(3) If your problem persists, your iPod may need service. If you want to start online, check here:

IPad 3 syncing issue on iOS6 - "You do not have the privilege to make changes"

I have updated my ipad 3 to iOS6 and now it is coming up with the following warning message when i try to sync "The iPad cannot be synced. You do not have the privilege to make changes" also it is not recognised wirelessly under devices, I have to connect with the usb cable.
I am having a similar issue on my iPhone 4s as well - this IS recognised wirelessly but has the saming warning message.
Both devices are updated to iOS6 and i am running iTunes 11.0.1
Any help or advice????
Thanks,

Finally managed to get this sorted, i noticed that it was at the point of the photos backing up i was getting the warning message so decided to try a few things,
What worked was holding down the option key and clicking on Aperture/iPhoto this gives you the option to select the library you want to choose from on your drive/external drive, i clicked the default one and reloaded Aperture.
Then i simply closed and re-opened itunes and it found the iPad wirelessly(still not sure why doing this on Aperture helped with this problem) then hit sync and everything worked OK.
I had changed nothing previously so unsure what started the issue whether it was iOS 6 or just an issue on my Mac but either way all works fine so i'm happy.

TS3581 Bluetooth issues on iOS6

I have browesed the forum and found that there are many problems and no answers from Apple ref the issues that peolpe are having with bluetooth devices most of which are licenced by Apple with the manufacturers having to pay a large sum no doubt! As with a lot of usesers I now have my Pioneer AVH4400bt not being able to control the tracks nor display any info from them from itunes I have another iphone that has not been updated still using iOS5.1 abd this works absolutely fine obviously all the functionality of ADP2 was not fully checked before iOS6 was released probably due to the iphone5 being rushed out the door I think Steve will be turning in his box. Can someone at Apple please sort this out.

delmania wrote:My apologies for the confusion, I meant that if I turned off Bluetooth, executed the killall on hidd, restarted bluetooth while in Arch and then rebooted into Windows, the latter OS would recognize the bluetooth controller. I will look into the BIOS this evening, thank you very much!
You should not need to run hidd to connect your bluetooth mouse, this is not the way. There are a lot of misconceptions about bluetooth mouses; in many cases the problem lays simply in a permissions problem, and bluez implementation also doesn't helps:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bl … figuration
However, if you had a valid working setup, your current problem could be a hardware-related one. In my case, the USB in the monitor sometimes stops working after entering in Windows. Once I boot into Linux, I need to cycle power down / up the monitor in order to Linux properly detect the hardware (as if Windows were hanging the monitor).

FaceTime issue on MacBook Pro retina.

HI guys.
OK another head head scratcher I'm having an issue with FaceTime on my MacBook Pro 13" retina Running mountain lion.
It it to was working fine until about a month ago.
Now it just won't let me connect at all regardless if it's me that is ringing out or someone ringing me.
The issue is it drops connection when I go to answer or if who I am ringing answers Never had this problem before.
it rings fine & when I click accept it says connecting then it beeps 3 times & tells me it's failed.
i Know it can't be my Apple ID as FaceTime works without any problems on my iPad But it does have issues on my iPhone 4 8gb But that's a different issue FaceTime just hangs when I go to answer on my iPhone.
i Have so far tried several things logging out of iCloud then back in.
Logging in with a different Apple ID & trying it from a different user account.
ALl all have the same result so all I can conclude there must be something on the Mac itself.
The mac does have norton antivirus for mac installed which the subscription has expired on months ago I have tried allowing the FaceTime app through the firewall & I have also disabled norton too but still the same result.
anyone had the same issue or come across this before if so how did you resolve it?
cheers guys thank you.
