How do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime?

I know it's going to be something annoyingly obvious, BUT, how do I get my iPod to talk with my iMac using FaceTime? Both appear to work just fine with other emails, have made calls out to others using email addresses with both the iPod and the iMac. Have recieved calls from others on both iPod and iMac using phone numbers and email addresses. Just can't call my self as it were. Both the iPod and the iMac use the same email address, is this my problem? How do I get it work? (it's for my daughter so she can talk and see her mother when she under goes cancer treatment).

Yes, having the same FT calling email address is the problem. It like trying to make a phone call to your your phone from your phone.
On one device add another email address for FT and then uncheck or delete the Apple ID email address the Apple ID call email adddress on the device.
On the iPod go to SettingsFaceTime>You can be Reached At

  • How can I get my ipod to work with itunes?

    When I connect my ipod classic into my new computer it seems that itunes does not recognize it. How can I get my ipod to work with itunes? I'm afraid to disconnect my ipod because the display is saying Do Not Disconnect.

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • How do I get my ipod touch 5th generation to always use my car speakers when I plug it into the USB port?

    How do I get my ipod touch 5th generation to always use my car speakers when I plug it into the USB port?

    If the problem occurs after you restore it to factory defaults/new iPod then it is likely a hardware problem.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Here's how to do it.
    1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
    2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
    3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts  and etc.

    I just tried to sync my iPod and got the message that I have to update iTunes, but my Mac is running OS X 10.5.8. I wouldn't have updated the OS on my iPod if I had known this would be a problem. Any suggestions on how I can get my devices to sync again without updating my Mac OS?

  • How do I get PremierePro CS6 to talk with Blackmagic card for HDMI output?

    I recently upgraded my MacPro from CS5 to CS6.  I primarily work with Premiere Pro but also with PhotoShop and Sound Booth.  Previousely, my HDMI monitor worked with CS5 but the playback settings in CS6 only had the Adobe Default Player as an option and it would not show the Blackmagic card as an option.  I upgraded my Blackmagic software to the most recent version (9.7) but that didn't work either.  After the Blackmagic upgrade the HDMI signal in the CS5 PremierePro version (still installed and in use) ceased to operate. Subsequently, the MacOS was also upgraded from 10.7.5 to 10.8.3 but no change in outcome.  I have checked all mechanical connections.
    My platform specs are:
    MacPro (Early 2009)
    OS 10.8.3
    Processor:  2x2.66 GHz Quad-core Intel Xeon
    Memory:  12 BG, 1066 MHz DDR3
    Dual screen Apple display
    Blackmagic output settings (9.7) :  All Video, 4 Analog Audio & 2AES/EBU  (NTSC)
    My question is how do I get PremierePro to talk with the Blackmagic card?
    Phil

    Hi Phil,
    What Blackmagic card do you have?
    There is a known bug with the Intensity cards and Blackmagic driver 9.7 where it does not output HD, only SD   This should be resolved soon.
    In the meantime, if you have a Intensity card you can go back to desktop version 9.6.8.
    Best,

  • How can I get my iPod to work with its updater?

    Hey all, I have a 4G iPod, and it isn't recognized by iTunes. I connect it to its dock, and open the updater. The updater freezes and won't work UNLESS I leave it alone, after a few minutes the updater recognizes an iPod, but not any information about it (like the serial number or software version). Knowing this, I have sucessfully restored my iPod, only to find that the same problem is still there. The iPod shows up in "My Computer", but I can't get into it. Also of interest, whenever I connect the iPod, AutoPlay immediately starts, and asks me what I want windows to do every time I connect the device, but it doesn't show me a list of options...perhaps AutoPlay is messing the iPod-iTunes connection up? Can anyone help? Tried tons of thing on the site already.
    Thanks

    If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    Otherwise you need a working dock connector and computer wither iTuned and internet connection
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How do you get an Ipod Classic to make Genius mixes using the songs you want?

    My Ipod Classic is now about four years old. it's the grey, 160gb model. the hard drive doesn't click, so it's in stable, working condition, as far as I can tell, but lately, I've been having a few problems with it. first and foremost, it's stubbornly refusing to make Genius Playlists for me, using the songs I want. Secondly, it's not playing some songs. now, the second issue isn't new, and I've fixed it before, but that brings me to my third issue.
    when opening Klondikes (because that's the only game I play on my ipod out of the three that come with it) the other day, it gave me an error message stating "game cannot be opened because ipod is full" or something like that. I have 160 gigabytes of storage, and all I have on there is music.
    anyway, back to the Genius problem.
    So I'll tell the Ipod to make a new Genius Mix from a selected song. in this case, I'll use Alestorm's "Keelhauled" for example. I made an edit of the song, decreasing the tempo, and drawing out the length of the song to 4:20. every single time, the ipod will use that instead of the original.
    Say I use "I See Fire" by Ed Sheeran (from The Hobbit, of course). the ipod uses the Kygo Remix I have.
    Say I use "One Eight Zero" by Grendel. it uses the remix.
    Say I use "The Sunk'n Norwegian", by Alestorm. the Ipod uses the Acoustic version.
    Say I use "7 Days to the wolves", by Nightwish. it actually uses that song, and not the Instrumental version.
    for "Whispers In The Dark", by Skillet, it doesn't use it, or the Instrumental version cause it can't find a match. (not a problem, just extraneous information.)
    Say I use "We Can Make The World Stop" by The Glitch Mob. it uses a piano cover.
    the trend I'm noticing here is that it only applies to songs with remixes. but as I have 1408 songs on my ipod, and need to be at work in an hour, I'm not going to look through everything to find every single instance of this.
    the ID3 tags for these songs are correct.
    Now, this is likely just a tagging issue, but the software should treat them as different songs. after all, most of them are stored in completely different blocks of memory. most of these are even different genres than the originals. and in the case of Keelhauled, because I exported the remix from Garageband, I'm listed as the Artist.
    can someone please explain to me what's going on with my ipod, or give me some insight into what's going on under the hood?

    A "classic" iPod is really a hard drive with a media player tacked on.  Like any hard drive (including your computer's), it can develop data corruption.  For example, maybe you mistakenly or accidentally disconnected it from the computer while it was syncing.  Or you dropped it, while the iPod was trying to access its drive for song data.  Or the hard drive can be getting worn out and unreliable.
    The Restore will not fix the problem if the hard drive is becoming faulty.  But if the data corruption was caused by something else, the Restore should fix it by erasing the hard drive to give it a "fresh start," like reformatting your computer's drive and reinstalling the OS.

  • How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    she only needs to do that if he needs to change the format. For example if she recorded the clips via her  phone and it's not in a format iTunes will play.  For example if I have a .wmv iTunes won't touch it until I convert it. She could also be talking about video that she recorded on a DVD camcorder that burns the video to a DVD not a memory card. ITunes doesn't convert everything.
    She's transfered the clips to her ipad and the ipad won't play them. So she needs to get them to a m4v or mp4, and you use format converters for that. Not apps but something on the computer.
