IPad to iPad FaceTime error
Hello,
Ok so my entire family got an ipad 2 for Christmas, we can FaceTime each other at the house but cannot FaceTime our other family members in their houses. They can also FaceTime each other at their house. We can't connect to each other though. I have norton firewall and have opened the required ports and it still doesn't work. Everytime we get a message saying FaceTime failed when trying to connect to my brother and their kids. My brother doesn't have a firewall system so they didn't have to open any ports. This is very frustrating so if you could please help that would be great!
Did you follow this?

iPad 2 gets activation errors in FaceTime and messages,plus Facebook app opens and then closes
Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight. Do NOT use an iPod/iPhone charger. Do NOT use a computer's USB port. Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear). An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem. I am stating, however, that we don't yet know. If the above test does, in fact, indicate a problem, read this.
Also, according to Apple:
Use Your iPad Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge. -
Facetime error on ipad check the phone number u called to make sure its complete
I have an iphone 5s and an ipad 3 both with the same apple ID and cloud . When someone calls me on facetime they both ring and i can answer from either BUT when i call someone from ipad i get the error "facetime failed check the phone number you called to make sure its complete " while the calling from iphone is normal . THOUGH if i add an email to a contact i am able to call facetime him from ipad .
Hi Friend,
First, Where are you located and what country did you buy your phone? Some countries have restricted facetime, ie middle east, UAE.
Check if you signed in Facetime with your Apple ID and password (Settings>>Facetime).
Check if you have signed iCloud in.
Check that FaceTime is not disabled in general/restrictions. If that isn't the problem try changing dns servers on your iPad.
Go to Contacts app and select the person you want call then tap Facetime.
Change your address for your currently location. If not works, change it for your native country or for United States (yes, some users have posted in foruns that after change the location to U.S. Everything works at a glance).
If not works, check if the person who you are trying to Facetime has signed in his/her Facetime too.
Most of times the Facetime calls work calling from your friend's email address instead of mobile number. So try to call your friend both ways (his/her mobile number and his/her email address).
Hope it will be helpful -

i bought an eBook from iTunes. I can view/read it perfectly on my iPhone but when I try to open the eBook file on my iPad, I get the error message, "Cannot open book. This book is protected by an incompatible technology." Any ideas for me? thx
Welcome to the Apple Community.
I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry. -
Ipad and ipad mini on same account won't facetime
Ipad and ipad mini on same account won't facetime. Already added different e-mail account but to no avail.
After you added the new email address, did you select it in Settings>FaceTime>you can be reached by FaceTime at? You have to select that email address and unselect any other email address or phone number in there that is currently being used.

When I call someone using FaceTime from my mac, they can see me but not hear me. Is there something I need to do to make this happen? I also have an iPad 2 and FaceTime works great on it if I call somebody. Why no sound from my mac FaceTime using a mac pro and isight camera, mike combo.
If I use google it works. If I use Ichat, it works. If I use skype it works.This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
Try turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume) or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume). Do this on both sides of the call. -
When i connect my ipad2 to iTune, it show "iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iPad. An unknown error occured (1651)". What should i do to solve this problem? My iTune version is 10.1.4.10 and my ipad is 4.3.5.
If you have iOS 7.1 then you must be a developer, so you should be posting in the developer forums : https://devforums.apple.com/index.jspa

am trying to sync my ipad with my computer and keep getting the following message: iTunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings in your ipad. an unknown error occurs (1631). what do I do??
The search bar can be very valuable...........
In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad? If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........ -

I am unable to sync my ipad..i get error message " required file cannot be found" Can you help me?
Some things to try in this order:
1) Make sure you designated the correct folders for music, etc.
2) Press and Hold the Home and Power buttons on the iPad until the Apple Logo appears, about 10 seconds.
3) Make sure all antivirus and firewalls are off.
4) Delete and reinstall itunes. (Back up the itunes folder first.)
Hope this helps... -

Each time I try to install update iOS 7.1.1 on my iPad I get an " error occurred " message. Can anyone give me advice on how to proceed ?
The exact wording of Error messages and Alerts are imperative in ascertaining your issue.

If you are having issues using OTA (over the air) to update...
Do the Update using iTunes on your Computer.
See the Using iTunes Section Here...
How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
