FaceTime works on phone but not computer

My FaceTime works on my phone but not my computer, though my Wifi works fine for any other internet application. Why can't I use FaceTime on my computer?

The Version of Snow Leopard is 10.6
My only thought as to why Facetime is not working is because of the recent changeover to iOS 6.
Apple are obviously trying to get everyone on to Mountain Lion, but some users, including myself
prefer to wait a while to let the gremlins get sorted.
Any ideas on the above will be welcome

  • Facetime works on iphone but not on mac using snow leopard?

    Face Time is synced to my iphone 4S, and Face Time works on it. But when I try to make calls on my imac (snow leopard) using Face Time, it doesn't work, it says that the 'call failed'. I've turned off Face Time on my iphone, so that the calls will go to the mac only, and calls i make will go from the mac only.
    Any ideas?

  • FaceTime works on iPhone but not macbook..? HEEELP.

    Facetime makes/recieves calls as per usual with iphone, but Macbook pro is unsuccessful- says 'connecting' and rings without ever getting through/does not recieve incoming facetime from other devices.

    Hello emilia_,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with FaceTime.  It sounds like you have isolated the issue to your MacBook Pro. 
    You may be experiencing this issue due to an expired certificate that can be updated by running the software updates on your MacBook Pro.  I recommend reviewing the following article:
    Unable to make or receive FaceTime calls after April 16, 2014

    If your software is up to date, I recommend continuing to troubleshoot with the steps in the following article:

    Lauretta, hi
    I just posted this to another discussion where we've been tracking Apple's Facetime problems
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/22878878#22878878
    "Today, I had to turn off my iPhone in order to do a facetime session between the Facetime app on my MacBook Pro and the Facetime app on my son's iPad mini using his email address because when the phone was on and sitting next to the laptop it kept killing the Facetime connection.  TURN IT OFF!  Can you believe?  Can anyone else out there duplicate this condition?"
    Do you think thi smight have something to do with the problem you described?

  • Blackberry Password works for phone but not for Desktop Manager

    Hi guys,
    I´m a first time user of BB and very pleased with the purchase. I recently setup a password to protect my phone. When it locks I simply type the password and it unlocks. To my surprise when I tryed to sync with the Desktop Manager it asks for the password but when I type it on my laptop it doesn´t recognize it and starts the 1/10, 2/10 tryes screen. The only solution was to remove the password from the device.
    Where am I going wrong?
    Appreciate any help.
    Thanx
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Please be warned that ten incorrect attempts of the password will wipe your device--be careful.
    You probably have a common user problem where you "think" you have an uppercase character or number in the password, and you really don't, becase your password is masked by asterisks when you first entered it, and you have continued to enter the password ON your device as you think it is.
    Does that make sense? This is a common mistake.

  • How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.

    How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.

    Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).

  • HT1727 i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

    Make a backup of your stuff (from the phone. apps/photos/music/blabla). Update your phone. The phone will restore the backup automatically.

  • How do I delete an app from my phone but not the computer? Is there a way to deactivate it so it doesn't add it back when it syncs?

    How do I delete and app from my phone but not from the computer? Is there a way to do this so it doesn't add it back in when it syncs?

    In iTunes under the Apps tab for the iPhone device just uncheck any app you don't want synced to the phone. When you next sync the app will be removed from the phone but remain in the iTunes library.

  • My "places" in photos is working on my phone but not transferred to my iPad in Photo Stream even though the photos transfer. It used to work, so did I do something?

    OK Vicky, good clues...
    See if this helps...
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

    Thanks

    Hey polofson,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Siri in relation to your microphone. On the iPhone 5, Siri utilizes both the mic in the receiver opening and the mic near the rear camera. You may want to make sure these are not blocked (commonly by third-party cases):
    iOS: Troubleshooting Siri
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4079
    Ensure that Siri can clearly hear you
    If Siri is unable to clearly understand what you are saying, make sure your microphones are not blocked.
    iPhone 4s
    Verify that the bottom microphone, located to the left of the dock connector, is not blocked.
    iPhone 5
    Verify that both the mic in the receiver opening and the mic near the rear camera are not blocked.
    iPod touch (5th generation)
    Verify that the mic near the rear camera is not blocked.
    iPad (3rd generation)
    Verify that the mic at the top center, above the FaceTime camera, is not blocked.
    All models
    - If you are using a protective case, try removing it.
    - Try turning your device off and then on again.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
