I can't make a call via my mac

I have a 2009 Macbook Pro using Yosemite and iPhone 4S using OS 8.0.2
I'm signed in correctly using the same ID in both iCloud and FaceTime on both iPhone and my mac and it won't make an audio call, it just says call failed.
Both the phone and macbook are connected to the same wifi network at home
Can anyone help?
Maurice

Hello mauriceot,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with Continuity features. It contains helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
Phone calls
With Continuity, you can make and receive cellular phone calls from your iPad, iPod touch, or Mac when your iPhone is on the same Wi-Fi network.
To make and receive phone calls, here's what you need:
Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices, including your Mac.
Your iPhone and your iPad or iPod touch need to use iOS 8 or later. Your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
All devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network.
All devices must be signed in to FaceTime using the same iCloud account. This means any device that shares your Apple ID will get your phone calls. Look below for instructions on how to turn off iPhone cellular calls.
Wi-Fi Calling needs to be off. Go to Settings > Phone. If you see Wi-Fi Calling, turn it off.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
BobbyD

  • IPhone calls via Mac not possible: I can't make phone calls on my Mac (via iPhone) although I am able to receive and accept those from others.

    I can't make phone calls on my Mac (via iPhone) although I am able to receive and accept those from others.
    I have activated all relevant options in FaceTime (either on the iPhone or Mac) but without success.
    Mac > Yosemite 10.10
    iPhone (5) > iOS 8.1
    After trying a call via the iPhone in the "Message App" on my Mac - it says "iPhone and Mac must be in the same network"...
    They definitely are... also I have logged in with the same Apple-ID's, etc.
    Can anybody help?

    Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, it does not make a difference. It still shows "iPhone not available. iPhone and Mac have to be in the same network"
    Are there any settings which are fundamental on the iPhone, I have activated:
    - iCloud Drive
    - FaceTime (FaceTime and iPhone Mobile Calls activated)
    The only strange thing - on Yosemite I can activate mobile phone number AND email in FaceTime whereas I can activate just my email in the FaceTime app on my iPhone...

  • I recieve phone call from my iphone on my mac  but i can not make a call from my mac

    I recieve phone call from my iphone but i can not make a call from my mac What shall ido

    Then follow the steps here:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    But basically make sure that iCloud is enabled with the same account in both your Mac and iPhone, turn off Wi-Fi calls if enabled in your iPhone and make sure that Facetime has the same accounts in your devices.

  • My BB Torch can't make a call via VIBER

    Dear Team,
    Kindly assist me, when did i try to make call (Viber to Viber) via my BB device I can't able to do this. Majority says BB isn't support voice call on VIBER. Is there any future upgradation are coming in BB IOS or any other version is required? which's allow to make voice call in BB or if any setting is required then please let me know.
    Note: I've new version of Viber, and have Black Berry Torch 9800 IOS: 6
    Regards,
    Ahsan Syed

    Hello Ahsanjafri.
    Viber works if calling via WiFi or 3G considering that the two must have installed the same application on devices..
    To this I add other application that Viber for BlackBerry is in its development phase still not as automated as IOS.
    Regards...

  • I can only make emergency calls from my iphone 4. How do I fix this? Not tech savvy in the slightest !!

    I've just recently bought a white iphone formy daughter and am trying to put my sim into her old one but can only make emergency calls.  How do I get round this?  Not tech savvy at all as you can probably gather.  Thanks

    Did you connect your iPhone to the computer and sync it with iTunes? You will need the internet as well as Apple will unlock your iPhone over the internet via iTunes. Let us know if this helps.

  • Want to make phone calls via bluetooth on my iPhone from iPad

    I can link my Garmin GPS to my iPhone via Bluetooth and make or receive phone calls.
    I would like an iPas app that provides the sametype functionality including:
    Make calls
    Receive calls
    Look uphone numbers
    Is this possible?  Using what app?

    There are a couple of Apps out there that will allow you to use a Google Voice phone number to make and recieve calls via the iPad. I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. If you are trying to replicate the Garmin / iPhone setup I don't think that is possible.
    Google Voice  setup - gvconnect and talkatone. (wifi)
    Skype - I think that you can make phone calls via Skype and Wifi.
    I don't have a clue as if it is possible to make a phone call over 3G via the iPad.

  • Can't make outgoing calls but receives fine (I believe it's the ISP)

    Hi.A small company were maintaining that uses a uc500 on a dedicated voip line suddenly can't make outgoing calls.This has occured on another two occasions when they were using a different ISP and It was due to them not paying their bill on time.This time we've called the ISP and they Insist everything Is fine on their end and that the company hasn't been disconnected.I can't find anything wrong with the UC.I can ping the ISP gateway.I can ping their SIP server and everything looks fine.I've added two debug files and would appreciate any assistance as my debugging knowledge Is not that great !

    Turns out the ISP was receiving calls In G729 and they use G711 Alaw.We didn't change any configuration on our side so I'm not sure what happened.I've set the sip trunk to use g711 alaw via CCA but calls are still going through as g729.I'm not sure what to configure via the cli.I assume It has something to do with transcoding but my telephony cli knowledge Is limited.
           Should I change the configuration for Individual dial-peers or Is there some global config. I can enter ?
      I added g711alaw to a dial peer and now I can't make any inbound calls either.I removed the g711alaw from the dial peer but It hasn't changed anything.
    Running debug ccsip message I receive "error 304 media type(s) unavailable. q.850 cause=65"
    I didn't expect such a small change to cause so much havoc.

  • Multiple Verizon Customers can't make/receive calls

    Me, my wife, and 2 other Verizon customers in our neighborhood are having problems. We can connect to 3g, have good signal for the most part, but we can't make or receive calls or text messages. I, my wife, and one friend all have the 4s, for sure, and I have another friend in the neighborhood (model unknown) who is experiencing the same problem. We can connect to 3g, but can't make/receive calls or texts over CDMA (apparently). I've hit the "Extended" network a few times and made calls. My Verizon signal is and has always been 50%-75% usually, with 100% sometimes. My friend says his daugher's iPhone 4 is working without issues.
    When we get away from home, our phones work fine. My biggest concern is safety, since we have no landline at home. It's been this way since I've got home 330 p.m. Friday. Going on 48 hours now.
    I would have called customer service, but....

    This is a customer-to-customer forum, not Customer Service.  Have you tried contacting Customer Service via some else's phone or by going to the local Corporate store?  Maybe there's an outage in your area?

  • How can I make a call from iPad

    How can I make a call from IPad

    Oh, you have to get the iPhone app.
    Seriously, though .... you are aware that it's not a telephone, right? Any calls you make will be using VOIP and any of the apps and/or services (Skype, Google Talk, etc., etc.) which support that. Some of those are US-only, all have various restrictions and cost structures.

    "I have an Iphone 4s and i can't make a connection to my mac and other devices via bluetooth! ":
    That is correct.
    "Why is this a problem and how can i repair it?"
    Becasue this has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.  There is nothing to repair.

  • How can I make a call to *190*phone number# in c#?

    Hi,
    I am trying to create an app as shortcut for some requests.
    I want to make a call to this number: *190*phone number# using c# but it never works.
    On the phone, I can call this number and I get a reply from my provider.
    If I try to call it using:
    Windows.ApplicationModel.Calls.PhoneCallManager.ShowPhoneCallUI("*190*phone number#", "TEST CALL");
    I get a message saying that I have to use the dialer keypad to send the request.
    Is there a workaround for this (bug)? I mean, if I put the phone number in the phoneCall-request, it is because I don't want insert it manually in the dialer keypad...
    Thanks,
    Adriano

    Yes security LOL...
    If Microsoft want security, they should create a smartphone without the possibility to install apps ;)
    If an app can't make a call (user has to press CALL), the same thing is also possible for a FREE request to the provider, or not?
    Thanks for the link! This show once again that write a utility for WP is a hard work...
    If I create a new contact, I have to call phoneCallTask.Show();
    ... And so I am on the same situation.
    .My phone provider created an app for iPhone and one for Android. I was thinking I would be able to create something for Windows Phone too. Now I know why nobody want to create tools for Windows Phone. The API never allow you to write a utility (for security
    reason, I know ;) )... But it would also be nice to have a utility some times in a store full of inutility apps :(
    About this BUG:
    I can create a textbox where the user can copy the phone number (maybe the app could copy it automatically in the clipboard if there is no security problem about the OS :P). But the user has to exit the app, open the dialer and insert this text.
    Is there a way to open the phone dialer?
    Thank you for the support Cristian!
