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.

IMessage and FaceTime not working on Mac Pro and message stating to contact Support came on
iMessage and FaceTime not working on Mac Pro and a message stating to contact Support came on with a verification code. It was working on 8/29 but stopped on 8/30. When I called support to even speak with anyone they wanted $19. I don't want to pay $19 for an Apple problem. I cleared my key chain, also reset my apple ID password but still not working. Works fine on my iPhone.
There is no official public documentation of that error message as far as I know, but according to reports, it can mean (at least sometimes) that the same Apple ID is being used with the iTunes Store or one of the other Apple content stores, and the payment method is invalid. Sign in to the store and review your account. You do not, of course, have to provide any billing information to set up an account to use only with iMessage, as it's a free service.
Otherwise, do what the error message tells you to do. According to reports, you won't be charged for the call if you select "Apple ID" as the product you need support for, and cite the customer code in the alert as the "validation code" to the support representative. -
I have a licensed copy of Adobe Acrobat X Pro for Windows. I recently switched over to MAC OS and would like to move my Adobe X Pro over but the CD will not work for Mac OS? Can anyone assist me with this conversion?
Best,
James.you cannot use your pc license to install on a mac. you would need a separate license (and serial number) for that.
adobe allows platform swaps, but only with the latest (xi) version, Order product | Platform, language swap
your option to use acrobat on a mac are to upgrade to acrobat pro xi and change platforms, use a windows emulator (parallels/boot camp etc) on your mac or swap with a third party. -
apple id not work for mac app store, what happen? It is available for others such as iTunes, my iPhone and iPad
Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store..
Quit the App Store if it's open.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Click Go
Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Relaunch the App Store. See if that made a difference. -

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!

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 ?

When I try to use FaceTime on my mac it disconnects the call automatically. I haven't updated the mac to a newer version but I think that should be my personal choice and shouldn't affect the functioning of my Macbook. Why does FaceTime not connect on my mac?

Itunes store not working for Mac
I have just downloaded the new itunes 10.5 and the itunes store won't open. I connect my iphone4s, and that won't connect to the itunes store either and won't update apps, or do much of anything. I've done all the software updates. Any help out there?
For Mac OS X 10.5iTunes uses the back-side code in Safari for all its rendering of the Store, so no, there's no way around it. If you don't have the ca. forty megabytes Safari takes, then you're going to have problems with your computer - Mac OS X needs much more free space than that - so you really need to clear off some space on the drive. Then you'll be able to install the new version of Safari.

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.
Hey ericcase777,
If you're having issues with iTunes Match, I would run through the recommended troubleshooting steps in the following document:

Flash Player 10.1 not working for Mac
I recently downloaded the new flash player 10.1 for my mac and also have updated to the latest safari browser but every time i try and watch any videos or play flash games it doesn't work and i'm told to download the latest flash player. I've tried uninstalling the reinstalling and enabling the flash plugin but nothing is working. After it says that it has installed successfully which i do when all the browsers are shut and i restart the computer it doesn't work. Not sure if i've done something wrong, but this is driving me up the wall!!!! Can anyone please help me??
Hi, Sometimes the update of the Safari browser disables the Shockwave Flash plugin. Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have: Make sure it is Enabled.
Flash Player.plugin
Hope that helps,

Illustrator CC (2014) Live Mirroring not working for Mac
I've been trying to get active mirroring to work on Adobe Illustrator and have followed numerous tutorials on getting this setup (Live Mirror Drawing in Illustrator - Vectips // Mirrored drawing in Adobe Illustrator tutorial - YouTube). I've followed the steps exactly, but when I set the number of copies =1, the mirroring turns off. I've done this next to a friend running illustrator on a PC, and his works just fine. Has anyone had any experience with getting this to work?
I've made sure that all shapes and guides are on the same layer, that the bounding box is larger than the art board, and that when I apply the transform effect I have selected the entire layer.nk,
It may be time for the list (5 is hardly relevant here):
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Anyconnect not working for Mac OS X users
I have AnyConnect newly configured on my ASA 5550, running 8.2.x code; however, Mac users cannot connect using the Apple client, nor using the Cisco AnyConnect client - they are getting a "posture error" of some kind or the laptop is failing some kind of machine profiling.
Help - I have no Apple OS experience on this.

The user has an AnyConnect client installed on his Apple laptop; I wasn't aware that there was a component that needed to be installed in the ASA for AnyConnect clients to work. Am I confusing AnyConnect with another web SSL VPN application for the ASA 5550? -
Password will not work for Mac account
Hello,
When I'm using the Mail app, it won't recognize my @mac.com accounts password and I can't get my mail.
It is the same password I use to log on here, why doesn't it work?why not delete the account in your mail app and add it again.
that way, you can add your new password when you re-enter your account in your mail app/program.
good luck.
