Facetime w/iPad & iPhone

May I use my iPhone and iPad to facetime continuously 24/7 as a video monitor ?

Hello cohenj80,
Thank you for the details about the FaceTime and iMessage activation issue you are experiencing on your iPad 3. I recommend following the steps in this article when you are not able to sign into FaceTime or iMessage on your iPad:

Same iMessage/ Facetime for iPad, iPhone, MacBook Pro

Hello everybody,
I'm having issues with my iPhone / Macbook Pro and iPad as I want to have the same iMessage and Facetime for these 3 devices.
(It means receiving a message/call at the same time on my iPhone, Macbook Pro and my iPad.)
I tried to enter the same ID but it says that my email is already in use... =@
For sure it is in use !!
I've configured my iPhone with my Apple ID and my Gmail account (+ phone number) and I want to use also my Gmail account on my iPad and my MBP so as to receive on my 3 devices the same message and sync at the same time...
If someone is trying to reach me, he won't know if I'm near my iPad xor my iPhone xor my MBP... !!!!
If we can't have the same process running on these 3 devices and sync at the same time, it's very stupid and unproductive... !
Please, could somebody help me out ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Firstly, I logged into my apple id a/c and cleaned up, deleted, the email accounts that were associated with the account that were several awaiting verification. I then added and verified from within the apple id the relevant emails that I needed. The tip here is to create the emails first, google lets you create multiple emails, as do others i believe.
I had set up gmail accounts for mynameipad@gmail, mynameimac@gmail, mynameairbook@gmail, so basically you need to have a separate email for each device.
Then within Face Time settings on each device, use same apple id but under "you can be reached by face time at:" you add the relevant email that you want people to use to call you on that device.
Also I tuned off some settings within mackeeper, like safe browsing (if u have this i'd suggest you deinstall it first, see other topics on mackeep) as this was causing the face time connection from my macair to fail.
I hope this gets you sorted.
Regards

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name??

CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS.

You should be able to call the iPad using your Apple ID from the iPhone. When calling from iPad use the iPhone's phone number to initiate the call.

using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call. see the link.
Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

Cannot find FaceTime App on iPhone 5/New iPad

Found out that I did not have FaceTime app on my iPhone 5 or new iPad.
Have started reading articles about it.
Need to go thru settings=> general => restrictions and
set safari, camera, facetime . all to be "on".
and go thru settings => FaceTime and turn it on and also give correct
e-mail addesses.
My iPad will put the FaceTime back to the screen.. no sweat.
Still did not see it on my iPhone.. Okay, read more articles.
have tried settings=> general=> reset => "erase all content and settings"
to reset everything..
still no FaceTime App showing on my iPhone. went thru all steps I did for iPad
and still do not see the app on my iphone.. Help?
Now, I think of it, I cannot get a FaceTime on my iPhone, right?
Once, I make a phone call, the facetime is an option to do, right?
if so, how can I find others using their e-mai? thanks for the tip.

There is no facetime app./icon, never has been.
The manual shows how to use facetime.
Tap contacts, tap the contact you want to facetime, scroll down to the facetime button.

Facetime on my iPhone and iPad

Can I use the same sign in name to use Facetime on my iPhone and my iPad 2?

Yeah, although if someone wants to call you on the ipad2 they will have to call your apple id... if they want to facetime your ip4 they will have to call the phone number to reach you... but yes you can sign in on both devices with the same apple id for facetime

Skype does not interface with FaceTime. You cannot use one to contact a person who is using the other.

TS1702 facetime on my iphone works but not on my ipad

Facetime on my iPhone 4S works but not on my iPad (3rd or 4th Gen)

From the iPad User Guide:
To use FaceTime, you need an Apple ID and a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. When you open
FaceTime, you may be prompted to sign in using your Apple ID, or to create a new account.
Make a FaceTime call: Tap Contacts, choose a name, then tap the phone number or email address the person uses for FaceTime.
You can also make a FaceTime call from the Contacts app.
Rotate iPad to use FaceTime in either landscape or portrait orientation. To avoid unwanted orientation changes, lock iPad in portrait orientation. See Portrait and landscape orientation on page 20.

HT204380 can i facetime my ipad from my iphone?

hi, i am having trouble with facetime.
i was just wondering if i could facetime my ipad from my iphone?

both superiormac and iCrizzo are wrong i have an iphone and an ipad 2 and have tried the same.
the key is to call the mobile no. (with which you registered the iphone) using the ipad or call the apple id you have on the ipad from iphone. But you have to sign out from the apple id from the facetime option in the iphone.

After upgrading to iOS8, I noticed whenever I get a phone call from my iPhone (regular call, not Facetime), my iPad Air rings.

How can I turn this feature OFF ? It's annoying having 2 devices ring at the same time.

When trying to FaceTime my iPad from my iPhone it say I'm busy why

Why cant I FaceTime my iPad from my iPhone 4 - messages says I'm busy and I'm not

If the address you are using is the iPhone number, you are, in effect, calling youreslf, so you are "busy."
