Factime cuts out when connected

HI,
I received previous information to resolve Facetime cutting out when connected. I was advised to update to Facetime 1.05. I have continously been trying to purchase 1.05 but Apple store say it is already  installed on my cpmputer.  It is not, I have 1.0.3.
How do I overcome this problem.
My best regards
John

Try re-indexing Spotlight. The App Store uses it to determine what is on your computer.
Spotlight – Re-index
To the best of my knowledge, there was no FaceTime 1.0.3. It went from 1.0.2 to 1.0.4.

  • Why is my Apple TV cutting out when watching TV and Films?

    Hi there, will try to provide as much info as possible but let me know if more is needed.
    I have purchased the newest Apple TV (March 2012) recently, and have noticed that it cuts out when I'm watching films and TV shows, but never when I listen to music or the radio. My friends have also noticed they cannot play youtube videos off their iPads onto the apple TV. When it cuts out, it does not say "cannot connect to iTunes" or anything similar to that, it just returns to the home screen and then we can select the computer and TV programme and resume playing as normal. This happens every 5-10 minutes during a show/film though and does get incredibly annoying.
    Originally I felt it would be a network problem. We have BT Infinity and the Home Hub 3.0, and I am aware that lots of people have issues with this. However this problem doesn't happen on any other device, nor when playing music. It is specifically when watch movies and TV shows. I have actually swapped the home hub device for a Netgear Cable Router back and forth trying to see if it ever made a difference, and the same problem is still happening therefore I do believe it to be a problem with the Apple TV.
    I have checked the troubleshooting advice for the Apple TV and followed that and nothing seems to have helped (unplugging various bits, making sure i'm on the right channels etc.).
    In short I have literally no idea what could have happened and what to do about this, and before I actually rang apple I wanted to know if anybody new anything about problems like this and how they can be resolved.
    Many thanks.
    PS it is also worth noting that on our homeshare, we can no longer access one of our friends iTunes, despite it being visible it never loads and is invisible to the Apple TV. This also baffles us and we are not sure if it is related!!
    Can;t think of any other details but let me know!

    I have three Apple TVs at home (one 2nd Gen and two 3rd Gen).  I have not had this issue.  Worst thing that happens is it will not load my content from iTunes after waking it up, so I reboot the Apple TV and that fixes this.
    My Dad has a 2nd Gen and it has started cutting out or dropping during playback of movies from iTunes and Netflix.  I tried restoring it over WiFi and also directly from his iMac running Lion and the version of iTunes previous to the latest that changed the iTunes layout (Not sure of the version), but it would fail saying the download was corrupt.  I even downloaded the .ipsw file and tried manually restoring that way, but it failed as well.  I purchased the USB cable for Apple TV to do this.
    I just took it home tonight and tried restoring on my iMac running Mountain Lion and the latest version of iTunes and it worked.  I will bring it back to my Dad's and test it there.  I will post the results.
    Maybe try this and see if it works.  I noticed that doing it through iTunes that it said it restored the latest version of OS for Apple TV and also the Firmware.
    None of the Apple TVs mentioned have been Jailbroken, so not sure if this would be causing issues for anyone else.  Just trying to rule out anything I can think of.
    I didn't get a chance to try this next step, since restoring from my iMac worked, but this was going to be my next step:

  • Iphone 5 keeps cutting out when still got charge init

    CCan somebody help me my iPhone 5 keeps cutting out when still got charge left in it it is two years old also lose signal a lot help please

    Depending on the age of the phone and its usage, this could be battery issue and your battery might have to be replaced. If the phone is still charging with your fathers USB cable, make sure it is charged for at least 15min, then try to connect in recovery mode, explained here:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If this does not work, you'll have to get it checked out by visiting an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place or by contacting Apple directly: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

  • My iphone keeps cutting out when i ring people and people cant hear me when i speak what could it be?

    when i ring people my iphone keeps cutting out, it connects but i can hear them talking but they cant hear me talking :s

    Hey Ciara,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand that you are having issues with others being able to hear you while on calls, the issue seems to be resolved by using speakerphone. This makes sense, as speakerphone utilizes a different microphone. I would advise you to take a look at the following articles:

    iPhone: Sound muffled or low from the speaker or when speaking into the mic

    Usually filtering (or lack of !)  Either something not connected via a filter (answering machine, Sky box etc) or a microfilter is faulty.

  • The sound on my iPhone 4S cuts out when playing music/podcasts.

    The sound on my iPhone 4S cuts out when playing music/podcasts.  If I unplug and replug in the headphones, the sound comes back on, but often for only 20 seconds or so before cutting out again.  Sometimes it will play for 15-20minutes before cutting out.  The track is not "paused", and appears to continue, just no sound.  I tried cleaning the headphone jack with compressed air to no avail.  I also noticed the the same phenomenon occurs when I sync my bluetooth to my car audio.  That is, it will play for a while, then the sound will cut out, even though the track is still shown to be playing.  If I reset the bluetooth, the sound comes back on.
    This started happening about a week ago, but no "event" that I can think of caused it.  I didnt' get the phone wet, forcefully drop it, or leave it in extreme heat.  I've tried doing a reset of the phone.  I also was running iOS5 when I first noticed this, and since upgraded to iOS6.  The problem appeared with both.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    One thing that helped was getting a toothbrush and scrubbing the dock connector on the phone.  I scrubbed the connector and used compressed air for about 1/2 hour till the connector looked much cleaner.  An Apple employee told me that the pins on the phone had a little corrosion and sand.  The problem hasn't gone away completely, but has been significantly reduced.  I'm going to hold out until my contract expires after which time I'll switch to an iPhone5 (or newer) or Android phone.

  • Streaming music cuts out when downloading

    I have an old Airport Express (802.11g). When streaming music from my MacBook Pro, the music cuts out when I start my downloads (usually when the download speed reaches 0.5mb/s or above on Bittorrent/Unison). Two questions:
    1) Is this a bug or just due to the limitation of the device?
    2) I am planning on purchasing the new Apple TV to stream videos from my MacBook to my TV. Would my current Airport Express handle this (i.e. downloading and streaming videos to Apple TV) or do I need to upgrade my Airport Express to the latest 802.11n?
    Thanks in advance.

    Most probably Premiere Elements is causing the rotation you are experiencing
    That is because the recent versions of Premiere Elements do not recognize the rotation indicator set in a photo file.  However the Photoshop Elements Organizer does recognize a photo orientation indicator set within the photo file when displaying thumbnails and displaying the photo file.
    At this point for this slide show,
    it might be simplest to initiate an edit in Photoshop Elements of each of the portrait orinetation photo files that are in this slide show -- so that the pixels within the photo file itself can be rotated and saved as a new photo file. .
    In the future,
    -- it would probably be simpler to multiple select thumbnails in the Organizer and rotate those photo thumbnails (once 90 degrees  and then a second time back in the opposite direction 90 degrees).
    -- most cameras that set rotation indicators in a photo file also have an option not to set that indicator which then usually results in portrait orientation photos displaying sideways in the Elements Organizer until you rotate them yourself. (to me this is a second choice approach but it is a possibility)

  • TS3700 have done this and reset my ipod, the music still cuts out when the backing light dims? any suggestions

    I have a 6th generation Ipod nano (it is already a replacement after the firsts hold button broke within its warrenty) So now my replacement before it was even a year old has stopped working, the music cuts out when the screen goes dark. I have checked the earphone socket and tried different earphones, I have reset the ipod and still nothing has changed. the music still cuts out when the screen goes dark, any suggestions?

    before it was even a year old
    Call iPod tech support before your warranty runs out.  Hopefully, you purchased AppleCare for the extra 2 years of piece of mind.

    Hello Jm23ur,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

  • Audio cuts out when using Interfaces

    Just recently bought my first iMac, with plans to use it for multi-track recording. The audio is cutting out when using FireWire or USB interfaces to record and/or play audio. For instance, with an Edirol FA-66, even iTunes experiences brief periodic audio loss (every 20 seconds or so) when playing through the device. PreSonus Firebox works a bit better, with a 1 to 3 second loss every 40 seconds or so... this happens when using OSX as well as XP... the operating system doesn't seem to influence the problem. To be certain it wasn't a FireWire issue, I tested it with an M-Audio USB interface and had the same audio loss.
    Talking with tech support, the first guy just blamed everything on the 3rd party devices. That drove me CRAZY. Finally he got a specialist on the phone, who blamed it on the intel chip.
    Right now I'm just living with it... trying to record songs in smaller pieces. I wait for the audio to drop, then as soon as it comes back I hit record. I've got about 40 seconds (using the Firebox) which is enough to lay down a verse or chorus.
    I'm just hoping, HOPING that someone at Apple is looking into these things.

    Hello,
    This may be a stretch but your mention of " hard drive hanging" prompted me to suggest your problem may involve low data transfer rates. (I mean, the hard drive may have too slow.)
    When, for example, Final Cut Express or Pro are being used, they require high data transfer rates to avoid frame dropping. Apple's article on the HD requirements for those apps is here:

    One weird thing: the drive never mounts on the desktop, the only way I can see it is to click on the TC in 'shared devices' in finder sidebar.
    That's normal. A network drive won't mount by itself. You may want to add the drive to your login items and/or the login items of your boy's account.
    He came over to update his iPod tonight. Now the library is inaccessible. It says that his account is not authorized for the folder.
    Is that a USB drive? How have you defined access to that drive in AirPort Utility? If you set it to "Secure Shared Disks" "With accounts", you'll have to add his account.

  • I keep notes on about 300 topics on iPad Notes.  Occasionally, when I go into an existing note to add details, the note cuts out when I begin to add text.  This is now happening every day. How do I fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Xfinity X1 - TV Sound Cuts In And Out When Connected to Surround Sound Receiver

    I'm a fairly new Comcast Xfinint X1 TV and Internet subscriber.  I am experiencing issues with TV sound cutting in and out.  The sound cuts out for 2-3 seconds, all the time.  The Onkyo surround sound receiver has been used without issue on a different cable TV platform so I know there is nothing wrong with the receiver. System set-up. Voice/data modem - Arris Interactive, LLC - tg862gCable Box - Make/Model - PA px001ancSurround Sound Receiver - Onkyo TX-NR609 HDMI cable run from cable box to Onkyo receiver.  HDMI cable run from Onkyo receiver to TV.  I have reset all equipment multiple times with no resolution. Any help would be greatly appreciated as it is very difficult when trying to watch TV. 

    I highly doubt your modem has anything to do with this because it doesn't have MoCA.However it sounds like you an original green power light Pace DVRs and they are well known to have audio dropout issues. I would replace that DVR with a different version.
    Is this problem happening on a specific channel? CBS seems to be having issues lately. I am watching the CMA awards right now and I have heard the volume change a couple times but this is the only channel it is happening on which would suggest it is not Comcast's fault.

  • Streaming cutting out when streaming from iTunes libarary to Apple TV

    Up until a day or two ago everything was working fine, and I haven't changed anything with my WIFI settings or anything else.
    I usually load up a .mp4 file into iTunes libary and then play it, and then I click on the Apple TV icon to stream it to my TV. This works fine, however after about 10 minutes it can cut out, and then when I restart it, it's fine, but then cuts out again later.
    At first I thought it was a problem with the file I had converted from AVI to MP4, but I just tired a native MP4 and I still get the issue.
    I haven't changed any settings on my mac or apple tv.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    The following article(s) may help you.
