FaceTime not working on supervised iPads
Hello,
I have set up some iPad Airs for work using the Apple Configurator (ver 1.4.3). In the profile that I created, under 'Restrictions' I enabled both 'Allow Use of Camera' and 'Allow FaceTime,' however the FaceTime app is not working on the iPads. I get an error that says 'Account Restriction This iPad is restricted from creating FaceTime accounts.'
What gives? Can anyone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

It sounds like you are having a problem with the WiFi link(s). For each iPad, unplug the WiFi router for a few seconds. Then reset the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. You will need to reconnect the iPad to WiFi. (If both iPads use the same WiFi router, you only need to unplug it once.)

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. -
Facetime not working between wifi ipads
Hi please help...
I have 2 wifi ipad2. Facetime between those ipads used to work fine, but slowly the connection got spotty, and now it does not work at all.
When trying to call via FT, you can see the other side only as a freeze frame, not audio pass through at all. Sometimes it will just say fail.
Any one have experience with this problem.
Any suggestions? please?
Thanks!Abpd08-

FaceTime is not working on my iPad. I've updated my iPad to the latest version of I0S and tried all the things that come up when I do a Google search. Any ideas? Thanks
Have you tried the troubleshooting advice here:
If you can't make or receive FaceTime calls - Apple Support
If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
What exactly is not working? -
IMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6
iMessage is not working on my iPad since updating to ios7.0.6
It worked well before doing the latest update.
iMessage on My iPhone 4 works fine after doing the same update.
Have done all the usual things plugging into computer, complete shut down and reboot, nothing has worked.
It keeps asking for password for Apple ID, I know I am entering the correct ID, check network is also being displayed.
Nothing wrong with my network either, other iPads and iPhones are working fine on the same network.
Would like this fixed ASAP.

TS4268 Iphone 4 (Verizon) version 6.1.3 - FaceTime not working
Hi, I have an issue with facetime not working on my iphone 4. It worked fine until a few weeks ago. I have done a "soft restart" (power & home button) on the iphone. I have signed out of facetime and imesage, and then signed back in. I have checked the settings, and everything looks like it's right. The phone number has a checkmark next to it, but is greyed out under "You can be reached by FaceTime at:", but I read that it's normal. The imessage works fine. I do have an ipad air on the same apple ID, could that be it? but it was fine before. I just got the iphone 4 replaced at the Apple store via warranty, because the front facing camera was acting up. What else can I check? What else can be wrong? I do not want to update to the IOS 7.1, because the Iphone 4 will lag in IOS 7.1 update.
There have been a large number of recent reports in the last few days regarding FaceTime. Here is one discussion https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6096640?tstart=0
Note that there are several mentions of the iOS version but many are also reporting the problem even after updating. -
I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2
I get wireless connection but my internet does not work on my ipad 2
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

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

My IPad cannot download live Tv from skygo. I have no problem with my lap top so I assume the broad band is okay. Can anybody suggest why the live streaming will not work on my iPad .
Are you using the Sky Go app to try and watch it ? If so are you logged in with your Sky account ?
If you are using the app then you could try closing the app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Sky Go 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Sky Go app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -

The iBooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?
I went to the Audio store to see about getting a surround sound and the salesperson asked me why I wasn't using AirPlay, he said it was better than the Bluetooth, better quality. So I do have AirPlay on my Sony and I installed the app on my iPhone 5 but they can't find eachother.......when I try looking for my iPhone on my receiver it does not show it. The Sony display works through my TV, the set up screen is there but it says no devices found. Like I said, the Bluetooth finds the iPhone and works ok, but the AirPlay does not.....looking at the manuel it says that the AirPlay will recognize my device (iPhone 5) but it does not..........
