FaceTime on Mac (Yosemite) does not connect when calling an IOS device

Hi all,
Since my upgrade with Yosemite, I seem to be having issues with FaceTime (video/audio) calling iOS Devices. iMessage works just fine with Yosemite. But when i attempt to call the other party via FaceTime, i could hear it ring but cannot connect. Anybody else who has the same issue and does anybody know how to fix it? It would seem to be a Yosemite issue, because when i tried using my iPad and iPhone to call via FaceTime, it works just fine using the same Apple Id i used for the Macbook Pro (Mid 2010). But when I use my Mac to call the iPhone.. It rings but it does not connect.. I hope they fix this with the next update..

For the ones who are interested: the problem has been "solved".
Solution: none. I found out that the iPhone 4 from my girlfriend caused the problem. The iPhone made it impossible to FaceTime to each other from iPhone <> MacBook Pro. I think it's because the discontinued iOS support for the iPhone 4.
Since she has the iPhone 6 FaceTime now works wonderful without any problem.

    face time does not connect when receiving or dialing out

    It finally seems to work (2nd day now and counting)...
    I tried the following with no luck:
    upgrading to iOS 5
    adding an associated e-mail and calling that associated e-mail
    do a full-scale registration of the e-mail (and making a free purchase via itunes) instead of a 'facetime only' registration
    this combo however seems to have done the trick:
    keeping the ipad2 plugged in
    changing the dns on the ipad to "8.8.4.4,8.8.8.8"
    If it continues to work for a few more days, then i think i can say the the problem is finally resolved.

  • TS3048 My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work).  "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
    That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.

  • HT1277 Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my phone and iPad.  Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting I need to check?

    Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting that I need to check?

    All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
    Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
    Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
    Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

  • Phone does not ring when called any suggestions

    Iphone4 does not ring when called. Any suggestions?

    Is the silent switch on?
    Does the ringer not sound or does the call not come through at all?
    Can you make outgoing calls?

  • Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line.  If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
    I turned my iPhone off and called it.  Right away I heard my message.
    I turned my iPhone back on and called it.  It rang right away!
    So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
    I don't know, but I'll take either.  I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem.  Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up.  I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time.  Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
    If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
    P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open.  I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
    P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week.  Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.

  • FaceTime 1.0.2 does not connect.

    After upgrade to 1.0.2 last week, my FaceTime just does not connect.
    When I call my friends, the FaceTime do appear on their side, but it does not connect after my friends click connect button. After a while, my FaceTime shows that my friend is busy, and ask me to try again.
    When my friends call me, my FaceTime did not even appear.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    I too downloaded the new version of Facetime this evening. I had previously been using v.0.9 and it worked fine. Now that I've downloaded 1.0.2, it does not work at all. Half the time it tells me the camera is off and then tells me there was an internal error and i was disconnected from facetime. The other half of the time, when I try to turn on face time it just sits and whirls but never connects. I've tried many of the other suggestions on this topic including repairing disk permissions, changing my DNS settings, re-booting etc. None of it has worked so far. I am on a iMac (late 2009) version. Any suggestions would be much appreciated

  • Mac Pro does not connect to ADSL router

    Took my mac in so that they could install airport extreme card.
    When clicking on the Airport icon on task bar my router is listed in the drop down menu. When selecting it, it asks for a WPA password, after entering the password it shows the connection failed. What's interesting is that I get same error even if I type password incorrect in, it does not complain about the password being wrong.
    Got a notebook with widows xp that connects fine to this router, when connecting the Mac to the router via ethernet it works fine though.
    I have installed my Airport card after I have installed 10.5.2 so I was thinking it might be a good idea to maybe install Tiger or 10.5 to see if this fixes the problem as I have read many posts of people complaining about their networks after installing 10.5.2.
    No idea where to start trouble shooting.

    Thanks Linc. Turns out the problem was the length of the Cat 6 cable. I have wires in the walls, so I do not know the exact length, but I reckon it must be 60 ft. If I connect the mini to the switch with a shorter cable it does work. Problem is I have no way to change the distance between switch and Mini: switch needs to be where I have all the wires departing to reach endpoints scattered through the apartment, and mini needs to be where I will use it.
    Any views out there on whether I need a different switch, or a different computer?

  • Mac mini does not connect to the internet via wifi

    I currently have a Mac mini that cannot connect to the internet. I also have an iPad that is connected to the same router/modem wirelessly. I have tried the network diagnostic in the network utility app. It is showing I'm connected with green dots.. But still no luck.
    Yes I tried calling the ISP, there was some issues with the service but they fixed that and it was working just fine a few hours ago but then later in the evening it stopped connecting. I know my router modem is working because I'm typing this with my iPad ..
    Im going to call apple tomorrow and try to get another modem router as we'll. Just thought I would try here also..
    if i if I have to restore my Mac mini to factory, will there be a way to keep my iTunes music .. .?
    thanks

    If yo go to Network Preferences>Wifi  what IP address is specified? It should be like 192.168.1.X.
    Try creating a new location and jointing the wifi network again
    Using network locations (Mac OS X v10.6 and later)

  • ITunes 11.1 does not connect to iPhone 4 (iOS 7)

    I have updated both the iTunes (11.1, running on WIN XP) and my iPhone 4 (iOS 7) today.
    Unfortunatelly, the iTunes does not recognize the iPhone since this update. When I connect the phone there is always an errors message saying: "iTunes could not connet to this iPhone. An unknown error occurred. (0xE8000003)".
    I did virtually everything what I could (during some 8-10 hours of attempting to solve out this issue). I tried all methods following the instructions from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    However, nothing helped out.
    I even removed/uninstalled the complete Apple software (iTunes, Quicktime, Safari, Apple mobile device, Bonjour,...) using a special removing utility, I cleaned up the registry, I created a new user account in WIN, I virtually swept out all Apple stuff from my computer. Twice.
    But nothing worked out. Still the same issue like 12 hours ago: "iTunes could not connet to this iPhone..."
    Any idea which may help to a desperate guy please?
    (Do not tell me to buy a MacBook.)

    Not possible. Mirroring relies on hardware. It needs a later processor in order to do real-time encoding of the video.

  • I purchased a song from iTunes radio through Apple TV.  The song does not show up on my iOS devices or my MacBook Pro?

    I tried out the new iTunes Radio last night through my Apple TV.  Even purchased a song.  Can't find the song through any of my iOS devices or my MacBook Pro music library.  What am I missing?  It said that the song would be on my devices.  Help?

    Hi Dreanmachine1,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    When you purchase a song on your Apple TV, it is available on all of your devices. There are a few reasons why you may not see the song on your iOS devices or your MacBook Pro. They may not be set up to download purchases automatically, or you may not have been signed into the iTunes Store.
    I'd suggest trying to download the purchases on your other devices using the steps in this article:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    You may also want to check your automatic download settings, so you can receive future songs automatically. See this article for help:

  • 2012 mac mini does not boot when usb 3 drive is connected

    I have a late 2012 Mac Mini, Ivy Bridge, that has a USB 3.0 external hard drive connected to it.  If the hard drive is powered on when I power up the Mac Mini, I get a light grey screen, but never see the Apple logo and the system just sists there.  If I boot the Mac Mini with the USB 3.0 drive connected, but powered off, the Mac Mini boots just fine.  Interestingly enough, if I reboot the Mac Mini with the USB 3.0 hard drive attached, the Mac Mini boots normally.  I have installed all of the OS patches I can find and have not had any luck in resolving this.  Does anyone have an idea what might be going on? 

    Something to check.  Power everything down.  Turn on
    your external drives then do a PRAM zap booting the MIni.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11243
    It may or may not help.
    If it doesn't, then check the system log starting from the time
    you start up the Mini and see what the last entry was.   Wait a fair
    amount of time so a gap in time in the log can be seen when you turn
    the drive off.   Could determine if it is some hardware issue, as BDAqua
    was suggesting, or a driver issue.

  • T61 - WWAN does not connect when resuming from sleep mode

    Hi.
    I have a T61 with integrated WWAN, which works perfectly - except I use sleep mode a lot, and when i resume from sleep mode, WWAN doesn't connect, I always get the same error - IP configuration failed. If I restart my OS, WWAN works normally again.
    So far i have tried on Windows XP, Vista 32, Vista 64 and Windows 7 32 bit - always the same!
    I connect via Access Connections, maybe there is a known issue?
    Thank you, B

    This bugs me as well.  With the new Verizon software I just installed, it says "Adapter Disabled" when I resume from sleep.
    I suspect a driver bug that needs to be adressed.
    I use Vista Business 32bit, but had the same problem with XP.
