FaceTime missing from iphone5 setting

Please note that I have both iPhone 4 and iPhone 5. Using them in Lebanon, Beirut. I noticed that the FaceTime on iPhone 5 has disappeared from under setting. I called my service provider and they said they have no restriction on FaceTime. They suggested that there might be some programming problem, but I checked with another person having the iPhone 5 and found the same problem.
I tried so many fixes but all failed as it is not showing under settings.

Read this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Particularly this footnote for "Middle East":
FaceTime may be unavailable if your device originates from this region and becomes unlocked or is used in another country.
If you purchased the phone in a Middle East country where it is not banned, it may be removed if you attempt to use it with a SIM from a different country. This is done to pacify the governments in the Middle East and prevent the feature from being used in a country where it is banned by law.
Since the iPhone is not legitimately available at all in Lebanon, there is nothing much you can do.

  • App store application missing from iPhone5

    My new iphone5 doesn't have the app store application. Should I restore OS6 or take it to the apple store for evauation.

    First check your restrictions..
    Settings->General->Restrictions
    Make sure nothing is restricted.
    If thats not the issue, then yes restore iOS6 from iTunes. Make sure to backup your data first

  • SLOC to SLOC feature missing from Ext Set 1.10

    We need some functionality for shipping point selection and capturing freight costs on a SLOC to SLOC movement within the same plant. We are told it was made available in Extension Set 2.0. Upgrading to that is not an option at this time. We are looking for a note that will give us this specific functionality without going through a full upgrade.
    Is anyone aware of a note that covers this issue?

    Dear Ronald,
    Stock transportation orders between two storage locations of the same plant are indeed part of Extension 2.0. However, there are some OSS notes documenting the relevant coding changes that you might find interesting. Note no. 587383 is the first, it lists the other notes.
    Best regards,

  • Facetime missing from my iPhone 5.

    I had Facetime on my iPhone 5 until my yesterday. I have no restrictions on my iPhone. I restarted my iPhone. Nothing. A possible culprit for my MIA Facetime is my sync with iTunes, which I always do daily. Any suggestions?

    FaceTime is not a separate app on the iPhone, if it's not hidden via Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime being 'off' then you should be able to do FaceTime calls either by selecting the person that you want to call in the Contacts app and scrolling to the bottom of their details and tapping the FaceTime button, or you can do it via the Contacts tab in the Phone app.
    If FaceTime doesn't appear in Restrictions then where was the phone bought ? FaceTime is not available on phones bought in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and possibly a few other countries.

  • 17  app rating missing from my settings so I can't check it off

    17+ app rating is missing from my setting so I can't check it off.

    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Accounts
    select account, at bottom is delete account.
    This will remove the account, you may still have a security profile at Settings>General>Profiles. You should delete that as well.
    Once removed, all base Apple settings should be available.

  • Facetime missing on setting

    facetime app icon is missing on my iphone 5 & facetime is missing from setting how to get a facetime pleas give a solution   

    In what country did you purchase the phone? If you purchased it in the UAE or several other countries in that region, it may have been removed by Apple in accordance with local regulations. If so, there is no way to get FaceTime on that phone.
    If it's not from a country where FT is prohibited, it may simply have been disabled on the phone. Have you checked Settings>General>Restrictions?

    i bought ipod touch 4G from dubai but i stay in india. facetime is missing from my ipod. how should i get it? people pls help.

    omijh,
         It will not work no matter how many times you choose to restore your iPod touch. If it is blocked than it is blocked. So prern do not restore your iPod. It will take up your time and will be a waste. Listen to stedman1 and Dave Sawyer. An by the way, Facetime is available on iOS 4...so again you are wrong.

    We are all iphone userss just like you.  You did not buy your iphone from us.
    You are not addressing Apple here at all.
    Did you buy the iphone ins the Middle East?  If so, it will never have facetime. It is not allowed by the government.

    If you try all these steps and you still have issues...
    Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

  • TS1717 Started a software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    Started a Itunes software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    There are a couple of options that I know of to fix the issue.
    One is listed in this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24606478#24606478 - and involves uninstalling iTunes and related components and then re-installing iTunes.  You will need to read the instructions in the thread to see the correct uninstall order.
    Second option is use System Restore to set your system back to a date prior to the iTunes update.  I did this before finding the thread mentioned above.
    Not sure exactly what the problem is but I know, after a search, that MSVCR80.dll was indeed already installed on my computer.

  • "show in itunes store" command missing from video library

    updated to itunes 11.1, and ios7.
    This isn't a pro or con diatribe, just a list of the minorish bugs that i have noticed:
    First (probable?) bug:
    With the latest update, the (control click) "show in itunes store" command is missing from all video layouts (unwatched, shows, genres) except "list".
    I assume this is just a temporary bug, as it limits easy access to purchasable store content.
    This is especially important since "check for available downloads", while still around, has been, as far as i can tell, completely nonfunctional for months.
    I now have all my email notifications for passes turned on, and just manually click on the emails to download new content.
    However, especially for shows with extra content, sometimes the email doesn't download the actual show, just the extra content.
    for this reason, and for non pass shows, and just for general shopping and impulse buys, I liked to use the "show in itunes store" to easily check shows that i am currently interested in.
    except that now it is gone.
    Another (probable) bug:
    I have a lot of purchased content, so i have the cloud turned off to control the flow of menu information.  i don't need to see everything i have purchased all the time, only the newest shows that i actually have loaded onto the ipad.  I still just load in the shows i want to watch from my main computer after i have downloaded them from apple to the hard drive, which i guess is now a bit old fashioned.  ios7 doesn't seem to like this very much, as it initially displays the cloud content when opening the "video" app, before blanking and replacing it with the edited down version. But the real bug is this:
    Now when i delete a video on the ipad, it crashes the "video" app.
    And, instead of recognizing the delete when i sync to the computer, it ignores it and reloads the video onto the ipad.
    ......And finally:
    There is still a tendency for the ipad and itunes to throw up the "sign in" pop up, often multiple times in a row, anywhere and for no reason, even when i am already signed in. Sometimes i can just hit "cancel" and it disappears, other times it forces me to retype my password.  It's gotten a lot better and less frequent than when it first started earlier this year, but it's still around. 
    Having said this, I'm still, of course, a huge fan of the change earlier this year that keeps track of purchases and allows me redownload, instead of the old "lose it and its gone, tough luck" policy. 

    Ha.  Maybe it's just me then.  When i control click on a show, i'm getting:
    In Library/TV Shows:  Unwatched, Shows, and Genres:
    play "[show]"
    mark as watched
    mark as unwatched
    [depending on blue dot]
    get info
    rating
    show description
    show in finder
    reset plays
    show in playlist
    copy
    as opposed to, in List (and everywhere else):
    play "[show]"
    mark as watched
    mark as unwatched
    [depending on blue dot]
    get info
    rating
    show description
    show in finder
    show in itunes store
    get album artwork
    reset plays
    consolidate files
    new playlist from selection
    add to playlist
    show in playlist
    copy
    delete
    uncheck selection
    apply sort field
    I have my sidebar turned on, but it doesn't seem to make a difference if it is showing or not.
    I looked around in settings, view, and window for a way to modify the control click menu, but couldn't find anything.
    It's a very minor issue.
    If your menu is working, maybe I just need to delete my copy of itunes and reinstall.  Or change a setting somewhere.

  • How do I move apps from iphone5 to new iPad retina?

    HOw to transfer apps from iphone5 to new iPad retina?

    One way is to sync the iPhone using iTunes on your computer.  Then assuming your iPad is using the same Apple ID as your iPhone, sync your iPad using the same iTunes.  Make sure you have the apps sync set up correctly in iTunes for your iPad.  While the iPad is plugged in to iTunes, go to the Apps tab and check the instructions.

  • ITunes Radio Purchase Missing from iPhone w/Match Enabled

    I recently purchased Usher's 'Scream' while listening to iTunes Radio on my iPhone 5. Purchase went through successfully, but when I try to download it locally from the iTunes store app on my iPhone the download appears to complete but it never appears in my Music app.
    I have iTunes Match enabled and the cloud version of the song also is missing from my music list (I have the display all songs setting enabled). I checked my iMac in iTunes and the song appears (cloud version) and a local copy downloaded just fine.
    Seem to be out of luck on my phone - any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Are you able to find the song when you open the Music app, select Songs and search for it?

  • Music is missing from Media files

    So I have many CD's I have copied to iTunes.  I copied them years ago.  I'm now trying to copy some of the music files from media to my phone (non-Apple) which requires me to do it from the media file location on my windows.
    I noticed music is missing from my music on iTunes.  I have not found a way to update/backup whatever to get the missing music to the media files?

    "Not sure how or what caused the Compilations folder in the file path."
    iTunes will put any songs for which the "Part of a Compilation" flag is set into the Compilations folder.  Unless you have an older type of iDevice there's really no need to ever use "Part of a Compilation" (and even if you do, its only necessary for "Various Artists" compilations).  In this example, if you select the album in iTunes, right-click > Get Info >  Summary tab and set Part of a Compilation to "No" (and assuming that you have configured iTunes to manage your library) the media will be moved to C:\Users\RS Desktop\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\.38 Special\Flashback_ The Best of .38 Special.
    "So after I moved a few songs over, went to iTunes to play.  It says it can't locate the songs."
    Ah, that may be the problem ... based on what you're reporting you have these two options set under Edit > Preferences > Advanced:
    This means that iTunes determines where to store media based on Artist and Album information - if you start moving files around yourself it will inevitably lose track of it (indeed, iTunes lacks any capability to keep track of media when moved by anything else, irrespective of its settings).
    "How do if I click on a song a pop up asks if I want to locate, then I can go to the media files folder and get the song, but that if individually."
    iTunes does sometimes automatically fix related links when you do this - however, it can't be guaranteed to do so and there is no "bulk fix" capability built into iTunes itself.
    If possible, restore your iTunes Media using a backup taken before you started moving files around.  Turingtest2 has a useful script (http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp#FindTracks) that may help to resolve further issues (as always, before you start running any scripts that may modify the content of your library take a backup first).
