No face time in ipad air form UAE

Recently i purchased iPad air 128GB from du store Dubai. I couldn't find facetime application in my iPad and many web forums saying it is not possible to use facetime even out side UAE. Is it like that? Apple store in UAE site cleary showing face time application as specification. This is cheating really and that we dont expect form apple. I could keep my ipad 2 which i purchased from outside. ...

Its not cheating. The cultural and government regulations prohibit showing faces and hat is why Facetime is unavailable for iPads , iphones , ipods from the UAE. You should have considered this before buying it cheaply from UAE! It is not an Apple issue

  • HT201407 can face time on iPad air from saudi work in another country

    I bought an iPad Air from the Virgin Mega Store in Saudi Arabia, Dhahran Mall. Unaware Face Time was not installed due to country regulations. I returned the product for a refund and after explaining the situation, I was neglected the refund, I was even willing to receive less than the amount paid for, that did not happen either. At the end of the day, I’m now stuck with an iPad Air without the use of Face time when I go home. I thought being an authorized dealer or as advertised as an Apple iStore for Apple, there would be the 14 day refund policy ??? Does anyone have any suggestions on this matter  ?? Model number: ME987AE/A
    Thanks

    Any iOS device officially sold in the KSA, which at minimum means a device sold by any authorized Apple reseller there, has by demand of that government had Facetime blocked at the hardware level. There is no way to activate it by any officially supported means.
    We cannot discuss jailbreaking in these forums.

  • Can't connect to either iMessage or Face Time from iPad Air.

    Keep getting message to check network connection, but Safari working fine so connection working. Also have iPhone 5. Both programs work fine on phone. Can't figure why not on new iPad. Any suggestions?

    Check the following setting. Settings>General>Date and Time>Set automatically>On. Also make sure that your time zone is correct in that setting.
    Sometimes it helps to reboot the iPad nd then try again.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I have purchased an iPAD in the United Arabic Emirates and now found that Face Time is not included in UAE. If I reset my iPAD in an other country will Face Time be installed on my devise?

    FaceTime is, by Government regulation, removed fro iDevices sold in the UAE, and cannot be instaled on these devices in any way. Even outside the country.
    You will need to get a non UAE iPad to have Facetime.

    You cannot get it ever.
    Your iPads serial number is blocked because you bought it in a country that does not allow FaceTime.
    No matter where you go, you can not get it.

  • Face time over iPad and iPhone

    Hello all,
    I have a question about face time over iPad and iPhone.
    I have iPhone4S with ios6 and have unlimited data plan from Verizon in US.
    My friend, who has new iPad NOT iphone with iOS6 and currently lives in UK.
    Since iOS6 provides FaceTime over 3G/4G, do I get charged if I make a face time call with my 3G network?
    I know that I don't need to pay if I use wifi. I also believe that my friend won't get charged since his iPad only works through wifi.
    Any information will be much appreciated.

    One more thing to consider if you're using your iPhone to FaceTime to your friend in the UK:
    Sometimes, the iPhone will make the initial FaceTime contact as a telephone call, then switch to FaceTime.  So if you use Verizon (as opposed to WiFi) from your iPhone, you might get charged for a brief phone call to the UK.

  • When using face time, my iPad, iPhone, and macbook will ring, pls help me set up

    i used to use call through face time to my macbook, iphone, and ipad vice versa using my primary cell number on my iphone, and the macbook and ipad with my 2 other email add but after updating i0s 7 on ipad and iphone, everytime someone calls me through facetime, all iphone, ipad and macbook would ring at the same time.  can someone pls help me,thanks.

    I have a very similar network set as you describe.
    N devices go to 5 GHZ N router a TC connected by ethernet and N+B/G devices go to the secondary "bridged" router an Extreme connected by ethernet. I also have one more Extreme set also in bridge mode and connected by ethernet. the first two routers are also set to create their own wireless network. You set all this configuration using Airport Utility. I have a HP usb Bonjour shared laserjet connected to the first Extreme. ATV by ethernet to the TC. Xbox360 connected to the first Extreme wirelessly. I've since departed both my Express routers, did not need anymore but I used to have them set in bridge mode and create their own wireless network. Just point each computer device depending upon their speed of wireless card to which ever network you created, keeping the N separate from the B/G.
