I'm using 10.6.8 and upgraded facetime to 1.0.4 and now it won't work 1

Facetime kept saying it was connecting then hanging up so I looked to see if there was an update from my version and there was. I upgraded to 1.0.4 and now it says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."
I have sent in a request 5 days ago and still heard nothing. Anyone else able to fix this?

If you've used the old version of Facetime on your Mac just open AppStore and it'll show up as a free update. Click on "Update", wait for the ~18 MB download to complete and install … and you're good to go.
I'm also using Facetime on an iPad, which was still running iOS v5.x … and lo and behold, Facetime stopped working there too: it just wouldn't connect anymore. Tried and tried again, no dice. So, a couple of days ago, I finally had to bite the bullet and upgrade to iOS 7.1.1 … the latest release, which I didn't really wanted to do (mostly due to esthetical reasons/bad GUI design). Anyway, Facetime issues were fixed by upgrading to iOS 7.1.1 … provided, the other participant in a chat is also running the latest iOS on his device.
Today, Apple finally announced that there will be no seperate fix for Facetime on iOS devices still running older versions, e.g. iOS 5.x/6.x. The Facetime troubles with older iOS versions are said to be due to an outdated security certificate (AFAIK it's true). The only way for users to fix this is by upgrading to the latest version of iOS for any given device (note, that it can be a version 6.x for older iPhones, iPads and iPods, but will still fix Facetime issues by installing a new and valid security certificate). What bugs me most, is the fact that now I'll also have to update iTunes to the abysmal version 11.x in order to regain the ability to sync my iPhone/iPad with my Macs. I really hate iTunes 11 because the interface just plain *****, unless you like to play hide-and-seek with GUI items!
The next big no-go (and a good reason to throw out Apple products after 25 years) is the fact, that Mavericks no longer lets me locally sync my Macs with my iOS devices (via cable or WiFi). Because Apple decided to remove local SyncServices I'd be forced to move all my stuff through friggin' iCloud, courtesy of ******* NSA!

  • I just upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now Safari won't work.  What version of Safari do I need?

    I finally got around to updating to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and now Safari won't work.  It was version 4.0.5.  I know I should of upgraded prior but didn't need to because everything was working.  Any suggestions how to fix this?

    Are you opening Safari directly from /Applications rather than using a Dock shortcut ?.
    If the one in /Applications won't work either - what happens exactly... if there's a crash report, please post it here.
    Also, check Software Update, and/or manually install  Safari 5.1.9 for Snow Leopard

  • I bought iphone 4s from us and upgrade it to IOS 5.01 and i cannot activate with etisalat sim as it requires the original carrier sim

    i bought iphone 4s from us and upgrade it to IOS 5.01 and i cannot activate with etisalat sim as it requires the original carrier sim

    The unlocked iPhone 4S did not go on sale in the US until 11/11, and then only through Apple.com in the US.
    I don't know if it's available at retail yet, but I don't believe it is.
    As you've been told, you purchase a phone locked to AT&T. You can NOT activate it or use it on any other network. AT&T does not unlock iPhones for any reason. Return it to the store you bought it from and get your money back.

    Yes, connect to your computer with the latest version of iTunes installed and restore it. If it doesn't show up in iTunes when you connect it see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    I cant even get into itunes because it wont recognize it to do a reboot or a rollback.

    The terms of service of the Apple Support Communities prevent us from helping anyone with a jailbroken phone.
    You're on your own.  Good luck.

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • I updated my Macbook Pro last week to Lion.  I went to go import pictures from a memory card to my iPhoto, but only a portion of them loaded before my iPhoto froze and I had to Force Quit it. Now iPhoto won't even open... Help!

    I updated my Macbook Pro last week to Lion.  I went to go import pictures from a memory card to my iPhoto, but only a portion of them loaded before my iPhoto froze and I had to Force Quit it. Now iPhoto won't even open... Help!
    Please! I need an answer fast!!!!

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Updated my iPhone 4s to 6.0.1 and iTunes on my mac to 7.0 now itunes doesn't work

    Updated my iPhone 4s to 6.0.1 and iTunes on my iMac to 7.0 now iTunes doesn't work. My iMac and iPhone will not sync. It just says waiting to start sync, step 1 of 6 for hours.
    Any ideas?

    Do not take it to a third party repair shop - downgrading causes problems and voids your warranty.
    I had to unlock it so that i could really use it as a phone.
    And that is the root of the problem. Unless you had your carrier unlock it, it was hacked and cannot be legitimately activated. Even if you don't care about warranty or problems, downgrading simply will not help an activation issue.

  • Upgraded flash player, now it won't work (Win7 64bit, IE9)

    I upgraded Flash Player last night, and now it won't work, period.  I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling ad nauseum, but to no avail.  Based on some of the troubleshooting information, it looks like it's not appearing in IE's list of add-ons, but I don't know how to fix it so that it does - the install insists it's successful every time.
    Anyone know what's going on?

    If I go to the versions page, it wants me to install Adobe Flash (again), regardless of how many times I've run the installation before.
