I can't make a phone call from my iPad. But, I can receive phone calls. What am I doing wrong?i can reci

I am able to receive phone calls on my iPad air 2. But, I can not make any phone calls. I am using an iPhone 6. I have set up both as required. What am I overlooking?

Hi Bo S.,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you cannot make an outgoing call using your iPad. Included below are the instructions for using Continuity to make calls from your iPad. If you are set up correctly and still are unable to make a call after following the information in the article, please let me know at what point in the process the failure happens and what happens at that point. 
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
Cheers,
Joe

  • TS4185 I can FaceTime my wife from my iPad , but she always receives my call on her iPhone( and vice versa). How can I call iPad to iPad?

    receives my call on her iPhone( and vice versa). How can I call iPad to iPad?

    Charlie,
    You must have a separate and individual id for each of your devices.  For her iphone it's the telephone number. For each ipad, you must have a separate and individual id also.  The ipad id's must be an e-mail address. You cannot use the same e-mail address for both i pads, and you can not use the email address that you use for Face time log in.  The folks I know, create multiple e-mail accounts on Yahoo to facilitate this requirement.  These individual phone numbers and e-mail addresses should be put into your calling lists for your Facetime accounts.
    So if you want to call your wife's i-pad you need to have the mail address associated with it on your ipad account and visa-versa.  I guess you guys will need to make sure you know who's carrying which device...This modern electronic world can be a circus at times, even though it has its rewards.

  • How can you delete a Pages document from your Ipad but keep it on your MAC?

    How can you delete a Pages document from your Ipad but keep it on your MAC?

    You will need to keep them in folder on your hard drive somewhere other than in iTunes or they will be deleted from iTunes if you delete them from the device. I have a folder on my Mac called iPad Pages Documents - very original don't you think!
    Here is the support article that explains it all.

    I've encountered this error myself upon occasion.  If I remember correctly, it was a permissions/ownership issue with the some of the files I was copying.

  • Just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library.  The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything.  What am I doing wrong?

    just bought a brand new ipod nano and downloaded an audiobook borrowed from the local library.  The book is there and playing but, I cannot hear anything.  What am I doing wrong?

    Does the same file play normally in iTunes?  Do other audiobooks play normally on the iPod?
    How does "borrowing" work?  Does it require use of another app, other than iTunes, to get it on the iPod?

  • HT1476 what am I doing wrong- I can't charge my  I phone-4?

    What am I doing wrong> My I phone 4 wont charge??

    Try doing a hard reset on the phone;
    1. Hold Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time;
    2. Wait for the Apple logo to appear (ignore the slide to Power Off option)
    3. Let go of the buttons when you see Apple on the screen
    4. Allow iPhone to reboot;
    If that doesn't work; try a backup and restore in iTunes;
    *These steps will resolve your issue; or rule out any chance that the charging issue is related to software bug/glitch. If you still can't get the phone to charge after the reset and/or restoring it, your device may need serviced.

  • What am I doing wrong? (Can't find table)

    Hello,
    I can run the following query perfectly in SQL*Plus: SELECT * FROM ETS.MYTABLE
    But when I run the exact same query in my java code using the following statement:
    stmt.executeQuery( "SELECT * FROM ETS.MYTABLE" )
    I get the following exception: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    Both the table, as well as the schema ETS, exist and this is validated when the query is run in SQL*Plus.
    What am I doing wrong? Please help!!
    Regards
    Nadeem

    Are you connecting as the same user in both SQL*Plus and your JDBC app?

  • Photos from Win XP will not Sync with 3G iphone what am I doing wrong

    Need some help, just got the iphone and the only thing I can't understand is how to transfer my photos from my PC to the phone. I understand I use Itunes and point it to the folder/photo I want to sync. Itunes goes through it optimizing 1 of 29 photos (only doing 29 photos to start) but then when I go to the phone I have the normal Camera Roll Album and one folder listed. In the folder listed is only one photo which is all messed up.
    I understand the phone takes photos and displays photos at one res, and I thought Itunes doesn't care what res the photo from the PC is cause it optimizes it to be viewed on the phone.
    What am I missing ? and what is this folder that keeps being built ipod photo cache. Any help would be wonderful and yes I did read the "Iphone User Guide" that came with the phone.

    Not sure what the issue is that you are having. Sounds like you are doing the right thing.
    You point iTunes to a folder that contains pictures (or more subfolders that contain pictues...1 subfolder deep). Then tell it to sync. iTunes does its "optimize" thing. Then they sync over. Each subfolder in that folder you pointed to becomes a library.
    eg:
    C:\PHOTOS you point it to.
    C:\PHOTOS\FAMILY
    C:\PHOTOS\WORK
    C:\PHOTOS\FRIENDS
    C:\PHOTOS\WALLPAPER
    C:\PHOTOS\MISC
    are all under it.
    Each of those becomes a library on the iPHone (Family, Work, friends, etc)
    Photos from those folders go to phone (and photos from the root you pointed it to).
    The extra folder it makes (think it tries to mark it hidden unless you have it set to show hidden files) is just stuff for iTunes to keep track (like HASH data and other stuff) to know what it has synced so it can tell what is new and what is old if you add more photos or folders later.
    I have some huge images on my PC that I sync over without issue. iTunes scales them down when syncing to the phone (the whole optimize stuff).

  • I can't get iPhoto to allow me to add a location to my photos. What am I doing wrong?

    When transferring my photo library from a PC to my new Mac, I cannot add a location to them. All the other features work just fine but the location function is unresponsive. Anything I'm doing wrong? I'm new to Mac so its a strong possibility.

  • TS1347 My Outlook is set up and I'm trying to import contacts from my iphone into Outlook with no sucess.  What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to import my contacts into Outlook from my iphone.  I can not get it to work.  My Outlook is all set up and running...

    IIf you previously had items backing up to the iCloud, changing to the new phone will take a while depending on how much data and apps your restoring to the new phone. If your like me with 1,000's of pics and videos, it's gonna take a while. Make sure your phone I plugged in, your on wifi and let it do its things. If you see all your apps updating, then it's doing something. If this is not your issue, then it could be the phone froze up. I have the 6 plus and recently switched from the 5, and it took a long time to restore from the cloud. Restoring from iTunes is quicker I guess, but I didn't have that option at the time and was dying to use the new phone I eaitrd 2 weeks for. Anyways, good luck and I hope I answered something for you.
