I am having trouble using my I phone with Icloud. I tried diabling it & all my contacts have been cancelled.
OK, I called Plantronics and it was an easy fix. You need to hold down the volume up button and the power button on (on the headset) at the same time until the lights on the headset start flashing red and blue. Then turn on the phone Bluetooth and it pairs up just fine.
Thanks fo rthe help!! -
Hi there, since I installed Mavericks, when I am having a video conference with Facetime, and I maximize its window, the other person stops seeing me (my camera turns off.
Is this a bug? or do we have any solution to this annoying issue?
Thanks!Hi cpfrances,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has some steps you can take to isolate and troubleshoot the issue with your built-in iSight camera:
How to Troubleshoot iSight
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2090
Important: Follow these instructions in order. Test the camera between steps to see if the issue is resolved.
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
Cheers,

On iCal I invited someone to an event. But when it shows up on the other persons phone it doesn't have my name. It says my mom invited them. How do I change that?
How are you dialing these calls?

I am having a difficult time using facetime to call a friend in Europe I am calling from Canada Her phone number in France is 0607------
If I were to call using a regular phone call it would be 01133607------ (notice the 0 is left out in front of the 6)
Which do I use? This latter one is not working. please help
We both have wifi, and when she calls me it works but when I call her even through the phone icon and not contacts, it does not work. I have used facetime to call Canadian friends in France with no problems. I think I have the number wrong some how.
Thanks for your timeThe international number for France starts with 0033... or +33..., followed by the mobile number without the "0"

TS4268 when I call using face time I can't see the other person
Why is it that when I use face time I cant't see the person on the other end. I hear everything just fine but there's a black screen...
Does the from camera work with the camera app?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I just got the i phone 4 on Friday and it has shut off and not come back on twice. I was able to get it to come on by holding the top button down for a few seconds but i don't want to have to do that. Also, i am having a problem with texting, i will send a text and the person on the other end says that I have sent a blank text. Just need to know if this is something that is going to continue because if so then I will take it back and get a Droid
Assuming the phone isn't jailbroken, the basic steps (as needed) are:
Restart phone (you already did this)
Reset phone
Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
See appendix B of the User Guide for details
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
If your phone is jailbroken, this is the most frequent cause of the problems you described. Restoring could permanently brick the phone.
Note that your iOS is old and the current version is 4.2.8. It's odd that it wasn't updated when your activated your phone in iTunes, being that you got it last Friday. -
My FaceTime is frozen I can see the other person but they cannot see me
My FaceTime is frozen, I can see the person I am calling but he cannot see me.
I have exactly the same problem!!! I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.1, and I think that my problem started when I updated to last version (6.1) of iOS. I have done everything you tell and, like you, my iPhone has not been damaged by a drop or water. Please help because I'm desperate!!!

Having trouble using my 9720 connecting to car hands free kit
Hi, i am utterly frustrated with my company blackberry 9720 phone. The trouble i am having is with the car hands free kit, my skoda superb uses the bluetooth premium and cannot use the normal hands free setting like with my Iphone. The problem i am having is firstly connecting, i can only use the bluetooth premuim, which completly changes all the setting on the phone i.e turns the network off on the phone and then a screen pops up saying running SAP mode (must use an ittenna in car?), which in turn stops emails from coming in, i can stupidly write texts messages on my dash board and receive them and read them on my dash board while driving. So when i remove the keys from the ignition the phone does not put the phone back to its normal working settings, it keeps the network switched off i have to go to settings and turn the network on. Thirdly when i turn the car on the phone will not connect automatically it says cannot connect to mobile, but if i switch the phone off and on it automatically connects, but if by the grace of god it does connect an second time the phone crashes and resets and then connects five minutes later after reseting. forthly this is not an phone issue it is definatly software as i have been given an second 9720 and the fault is present on both phones.
can anyone helpas I believe it a car bluetooth hands free can only be paired to one device . ie if you wish to pair with another device you would have to reset back to default and search again.... so does the cuve work if you reset the bury and pair again but then your other phone does not work with it ... this is logical as if we drove down a motorway we would pick up loadsa phones.... therefor we can only pair to one device

How do I use my new touch (5) on my tv. My touch (4) used a cable attached to my tv, so I got a lightening adapter, added to end of cable, and plugged in new touch. Sound came through on tv, but no video. Do I need a new cable that supports this video content??
Hello krnsrts2013,
For more information on which Digital AV adapters are compatible with which iOS devices, you may find the information outlined in the following article helpful, in particular this portion:
Apple AV adapters cannot provide video output when used with Lightning to 30-pin Adapter or Lightning to 30-pin Adapter (0.2 m) adapter.
About Apple Digital AV Adapters for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Per the article, for an iPod Touch 5th Gen, you would need either a Lightning Digital AV Adapter or a Lightning to VGA Adapter, depending on your connection type.
Sincerely,
- Brenden -
Is it the same as sending a normal text message for them, more, or less? This person cannot afford to be charged more, and in any case, their phone can't send messages to phones far away.
You can only use the Message app on an iOS device to Message other users with the Messages app.
There are third-party apps like Text+ that can send text messages to all phones. Usually the their phone carriers charge by the text message.
However, sometime if both devices have the same texting app, the texting is free except for the data charge for the phone. -
Trouble using facetime on another device with same apple id
Hi
I am having trouble using facetime with my wife. I have an iPad 2 and she has an IPhone 4S. When we try to facetime, we are able to connect for a few seconds and then it drops off. We are then unable to reconnect. We both have the same apple Id and e-mail address although I am trying to contact her via her mobile number. Any suggestions would be grateful received.Get an email address (free gmail.com) to use on the iPad.

Using FaceTime between 2 iPhone 4s I can hear the other person but we only see ourselves, how do we see the other person
Once the connection is made you should automatically see the other person full screen, with a small inset picture of yourself. Normally you only see yourself full screen after you initiate the call prior to the other person accepting it. Are you both connected to wi-fi and are you initiating the call by tapping the FaceTime button on the other person's contact?
