Facetime not working for IOS6 on Ipad 2 16Gb Wifi

Hi there,
I have a Ipad 2 16Gb Wifi. I had IOS 5.1 installed and was using facetime on a regular basis.
I updated to IOS6.
Since then Facetime does not work.
Tried to change date from Automatic to manual and back to automatic.
Change DNS settings to to auto. Reset Network Settings.
Still was not able to go past Verifying your account on Facetime.
Then Suddenly i stopped my house WIFI and made a new WIFI HotSpot from my Cell phone ..and Connected the WIFI on IPAD.
Now I was able to verify the account and make a Video Call via Facetime. STRANGE....
So i felt its solved...
I moved back to my house WIFI Connection and now while makeing a call it says Call Lost ... Try Again. Never Connects...
Repeated the process and used Cell Phone WIFI HotSpot and Can make a call via Facetime again.
How can i use my House WIFI connection to connect to Facetime ?
Please help me here.

IMessage and Facetime not working in 8.3 (iPad 3 Wifi)

After updating to iOS 8.3 iMessage and Facetime is no longer working. iMessage receives messages now and then but is extremely unresponsive, often crashes, and usually only the last message shows. Some of the older ones show at times, but most seems gone. The Messages and Facetime tab in Settings also are extremely unresponsive..takes about half a minute to open. Usually, but not always, I'm told to log on with my Apple ID, which it won't do.
I tried calling my iPad with Facetime. Nothing. Half an hour later it suddenly rang once...
Apps closed, iPad restarted several times to no avail.

Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
What I would suggest doing is signing out of both services and then rebooting your iPad.
iMessage
Settings --> Messages --> Sign Out
FaceTime
Settings --> FaceTime --> Sign Out
Once your iPad has finished rebooting than sign back into iMessage and FaceTime.
As a side question, are you using Apple's 2 Step Verification for your Apple ID? This is a setting you manually have to turn on so chances are, if you didn't turn it on than you don't have 2 Step Verification.

FaceTime not working for mac

my FaceTime not working?

Here are some suggestions for getting the best results from this site.
Create a user profile that accurately reflects the type of hardware you're using and your version of OS X, or include that information in your first message.
Give details of the problem. A remark such as "X doesn't work" conveys no useful information. If X did work, you wouldn't be here. Instead, you should post something like this: "I did A; I expected B; but I got C." Include the complete, verbatim text of any error messages you saw, and specify where you saw them: in an application window, a CrashReporter window, a log, or whatever.
Also describe the steps you’ve taken yourself, if any, to try to resolve the issue. If the problem is of recent origin, did you make any changes to your setup just before you first noticed it? Is the problem reproducible or intermittent? That is, does it always manifest itself when you take a certain action, or only at unpredictable times?
Before posting, ask yourself whether it’s likely that you are the the only person ever to have had this problem. If not, search the discussions for answered questions similar to yours. If you found any pertinent information, but it didn't help, give details.

Apple issued a knowledge base article April 16, 2014: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5419 noting the requirements for software update to be compatible with FaceTime.

Is FaceTime not working for everyone else or is it just me?

My facetime is being very weird, for the past three days it has gone between working and not working, at first it wouldnt allow me to connect to a call, it would just say "call failed" and other days it did allow me. I spent TWO hours on the phone with apple support and NO ONE could help!
WHATS GOING ON!!!

Download iOS 7 on to your iPhone. You should then be able to Facetime. However, I have the same problem with my iMac. It was okay on the 16th April but when I tried to Facetime on the 18th it wouldn't connect when I contact someone or someone tries to contact me. Still won't work. Must be a problem caused by Apple, but I just wish they would tell us how to solve it!!
Also update your iPad to iOS 7. No idea for iMac, wish I had!

All events calendar sync not working for iphone or ipad

events 6 months back is working but all events selection is only going back 2 months for both iphone and ipad
any one else have this problem and any ideas how to fix?

hey kasey, i dont know why you have to do that or why does it not work even with all the right settings but what i know is after that process that i just explained above your problem will be gone and iphone will wifi sync as soon as you enter the wifi zone
the cause of the problem might be ( what i think is ) when you update you iphone software directly from iphone instead through your computer you get this problem because for me also it was working finely until i updated to 5.1.1 from iphone itself and wich caused me so much trouble, well now i have installed IOS6 and working great .evean if you did not update your iphone and still got this problem can be due to the reason that sometimes your iphone or computer cahnges some internet settings on theri on for their best connection which might cause confusion between 2 gadgets .

ICloud sync does not work for Numbers on iPad

I am growing tired of trying to get iCloud sync to turn on for one app on my iPad - Numbers. After turning off and back on the Documents & Data sync feature within iCloud, I finally got the other iWork apps on my iPad to ask if I wanted to use iCloud, and all iWork apps to ask from my iPhone, but my iPad Numbers app has not 'made the leap' yet and continues to stay in non-iCloud land.
It is ironic, because this is the only device where I use Numbers. It's as if Apple is trying to tease and punish me for something. I do not want to restore my iPad - how can I get Numbers to wake up and ask me to sync my docs in iCloud???
Frustrating...

I have a similar problem except mine involves my iPad (third gen) and iPhone 4. Storing a couple spreadsheets on iCloud worked great between the two devices and the iCloud site but about two weeks ago my iPhone stopped syncing with iCloud without warning and hasn't resumed since. I've tried all of the suggestions as far as turning Docs on/off, removing Numbers, reinstalling, etc. to no avail. The iPad and iCloud site work great still but for whatever reason the iPhone won't pick up the current versions of the spreadsheets.

IMessage and FaceTime not working for over a day now - iPad2

I updated my iPad 2 to ios 6 on the 27th, everything worked fine on the 28th but my iMessage and FaceTime stopped working since the 29th. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? I have practically tried everything but nothing seems to work. I am so frustrated. Is it my iPad's problem or is it Apple's? I would appreciate any suggestion and help. Thanks.

Why maps are not working for India on iPad 3?

I live in india and when my operating system was ios 5.1.1. I can search places in iPad and get direction from any place any where but after downloading ios 6 my maps are good but they are not searching place if I ask directions for any place it says that directions are not available.

To make it even more confusing, i have since reconnected the iPad to my PC and done the following:
1) Added the missing songs (iTunes was recognising that the iPad did in fact have those songs despite not being visible on the library)
STILL A PROBLEM - logged back on to iPad, not available on the music library
2) Did a search on iPad for the band, list of songs found, but when selected to play in Music library, nothing happens, just displays list of artists without the one i want
3) Reconnected to PC, deleted the music, and then manually added to iPad
STILL A PROBLEM - logged back on to iPad, not available on the music library
Seems like i am forever doomed not to have this band on my iPad

Message send failure when sending text message to none iPhones. Worked fine at apple store now not working for me again ( whether on wifi or cellular) what is wrong?

Why am I getting message send failure from my iPad to a non-iPhone

When I was in the Apple store on Friday with my iPad I asked the text the same question. we turned on my iPad and it allowed me to text text message anybody I wanted regardless of what the device. When I left apple store while I'm in the parking lot and I checked it again before I left the area and it still allowed me to text message anybody. Now it is not. And also I cannot email anybody from my iPad today to a non iPhone and that's wrong because until today I have been doing that for weeks. Hmmmm now what

TS3367 Facetime not connecting for ios7 (iphone 5)

Facetime is not working from between my iphone 5 (ios7) and an ipad running ios 7 for last 4-5 days
It keeps saying "Connecting" for a few seconds and the call fails right after that. What is the reason for this?
More importantly what is the fix for this?
I have seen lots of discussion threads talking about facetime not working for ios6 users, but this is true for my ios 7 devices! Please help!!

Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Unfortunately, we may have to wait until Apple is more forthcoming with information.

TS3367 FaceTime not working on my ipad. Also iPlayer on the ipad tells me insufficient bandwidth and so I presume it is the same problem. However, iPlayer is working well on my Apple laptop and desktop. Any suggestions.

From what I read, this issue is affecting mostly users with iOS 6 installed on their devices. If you are able, upgrade to iOS 7. My mom called me yesterday with the same issue, upgraded, then it worked fine for her.
If you are not able to upgrade, you'll probably have to wait for Apple to fix whatever is affecting iOS 6.
