Hello! Anyone having difficulties with FaceTime?

It says FaceTime failed across both my macbook and iPhone 4s. Both have the most current updates.

Hello nsomesan,

  • Anyone having issues with facetime fail on iphone 4 or macbook pro?

    Is anyone having issues with facetime fail on macbook pro or iphone4?

    Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page.

    Anyone having trouble with FaceTime

    Yesterday all 3 of my apple devices stopped communicating via FaceTime. Some family members were still able to use theirs, but my iPhone 4, iPad2, and wife's iPhone 4 (different user ID/Account) gets a "connection failed" message everytime we try. Definitely noticing a trend over the past two days on Apple forums. I'm using iOS 6.++ version, but I think Apple has definitely done something and it is not user driven. For Jetfighter17, how are we sure the servers are fine? Is there a way to ping their servers? I received a message on my phone yesterday that stated "FaceTime Activation - Unable to contact the FaceTime server. Try again. [OK command button displayed]." My home network was fine and WiFi working correctly.

  • Is anyone having difficulties with the new yahoo mail and mac 10.8.5?

    I am using an older intel based imac desktop...it is updated to 10.8.5    I use Safari to browse.   I use Yahoo for my email.  I know...don't say it.  Please.  LOL
    Anyway, it seems that Yahoo has changed their email system (again) and I am having all types of difficulties.  For starters it keeps asking to I want to expand or collapse all.  The icon or whatever it is called these days stays right there on my inbox and blocks me from getting to the email that is beneath it.   When I try to forward and delete the sender's name, it deletes the entire email.  Is anyone else having these difficulties? 
    Thank you
    Paul

    As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software.  I hide the updates until I need them.  Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os.  I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
    It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work.  First I would try the following....
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
    Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
    If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark.  If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

  • Is anyone having trouble with FaceTime on their macs?

    Every time I try to log into my apple account to facetime an error message appears saying "the server encountered an error processing registration. please try again later" What does this mean?? This has happened to me before and i brought it into the apple store and they fixed it for me but i cannot remember what they did to fix it. If anyone knows please message me back! Thank you !

    This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Restart your broadband device and your router, if different. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
    Step 3
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ About This Mac
    Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or obviously invalid, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
    Step 4
    Back up all data, then take the steps suggested in this support article.
    There are five steps in that article. Please take all of them. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    Step 5
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
    Step 6
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Step 7
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
    Step 8
    Boot in safe mode and log in. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
    If iMessage worked in safe mode, but didn't work when you booted out of safe mode, stop here and post your results.
    Step 9
    According to one anecdotal report, Flash Player may interfere with iMessage, though I don't know how and can't confirm. To test this theory, select from the menu bar
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    and click
    Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    Close the preference pane. If this action solves the problem, please post your results.
    Step 10
    Reinstall OS X.
    Step 11
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support.

  • Does anyone having issues with facetime on their MacBookPro? It kept saying connection lost or failed

  • Anyone having difficulties with Applecare/UPS shipping times??

    Any of the numerous times any of my iPhones failed and had to be sent back as a standard repair/replace, They were shipped by UPS Saver express (not to be confused with the applecare express replacement service offered in the UK & Ireland)
    However on this occasion my iPhone was shipped with UPS standard - taking 2 days longer and when i asked apple why this was.. (numerous agents) they either rudely spoke over me or said maybe apple changed their policy on this?? makes no sense.. normally I would send my phone away on a monday and have it returned by wednesday. this time looks like I wont get it until monday.. 
    Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same problems?

    1)Was my mac going to ship tonight and now it's not?
    Not if they could not charge your credit card. Makes sense, you didn't pay for it (technically since there was some sort of glitch)
    2)Why do they close the customer service line of a
    multi-billion dollar company on the night of a new product
    offering??
    The same rason companies move US jobs to third world countries, money.
    The percentage of people who were may have problems out of the number of people projected to buy the new computer is incrediablly small so it makes no economic sense to staff a whole department and have them sit around and do almost nothing.

  • Is anyone having trouble with internet on the new macbook air and an old modem?

    Hello there adell723,
    I suggest taking a look at this article we have named Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628?viewlocale=en_US.
    Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly
    Your Mac may not not stay connected to your Wi-Fi network reliably.
    Your Mac may stop accessing the Internet during use.
    Solution
    Use these steps if your computer disconnects from its Wi-Fi network unexpectedly.
    Check your range to the Wi-Fi router and reduce the effect of interference.If your computer is too far from your Wi-Fi router or your environment has too much Wi-Fi interference, then your computer may not detect the Wi-Fi network properly. The easiest way to check for range limits with your Wi-Fi network is to move your computer or your Wi-Fi router closer together and make sure that there are no obstructions (such as walls, cabinets, and so forth) between the router and your computer.See Potential sources of wireless interference for more information about interference and solutions.
    Try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. If your computer works fine when connected to a different Wi-Fi network, then the issue may be related to your network router or ISP. In that case, contact the manufacturer of your router or your ISP.
    If you have Mac OS X 10.8.4 Mountain Lion installed then I would recommend using Wireless Diagnostics tool which is on your computer already.
    Here is the article for it and how to use it to assist with wifi connectivity issues.

  • Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power?  Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

    Is anyone having problems with the battery heating up and draining the power?  Mine has been doing this for about 2 months now.

    This is a major problem with Lollipop, but yo said it started 2 months ago.   Several people have fixed problem by removing FaceBook And Face book messenger and then re loading the apps again.   You might want to clear your cache before reloading.  Not sure this is your problem, but worth a try.  Good Luck

    Anyone having problem with iphone getting a not delivered message after sending pic and it really is getting delivered to recipient.

    Same problem here with and I've done everything shy of a total reset which I also find unacceptable. This problem exists on all iMessage platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac) so I don't see how restoring my iPhone would help the problem.
