No FaceTime icon

My sister and I both have new iPhone 4s. Neither of us can find a FaceTime icon in Contacts to even attempt a video call. Both of us are on WiFi? What on earth could be going on?

Well there are a few more requirements for it to work perfect.
One yes both need iPhone 4.
Two, both be on a WiFi network.
Finally, your wifi network has to have the right port(s) open on their firewalls.
That last one is the kicker when everything else seems correct.

    There is no FaceTime icon on an iPhone. You access FaceTime through Contacts.

  • No FaceTime icon next to one of my contacts with an iphone?

    I just purchased my first iPhone last week (the 6, 16gb) and I transferred all of my contacts over through my gmail. Previously I had a regular old Android prepaid phone. Anyway, all of my contacts that I had backed up transferred over through the settings, and all of my contacts that I know have an iphone have the 'FaceTime' icon under their contact info, except for one. He is an iphone and I simply am unable to figure out the problem!
    I have gone under the settings, then to Facetime, to make sure Facetime was on. I also had him do the same thing.
    When I make a regular phone call to him the Facetime button is illuminated, but when clicked, it says that 'Dad' is not available for FaceTime.
    BUT until today when a regular phone call was made, the Facetime button wasn't illuminated at all. Any ideas?
    Thanks for the help!

    How do I get my FaceTime icon back on my iPhone 5 after accidentally deleting it

      Obviously I need to speak another language for you.... AGAIN my intentions were to answer the original post... Obviously more than one person has had this issue... I didn't create the post! If you take the time to read what I have said, I in fact wasn't the one asking the question, I was answering it! It's funny your on an Apple forum stating that information given by APPLE is incorrect.... Mind boggling! When answering a question on a forum, there are those that will disagree with the answers you have provided..SO WHAT! My life goal is not to answer to you or anyone else's satisfaction... Get over it.. You call it splitting hairs, I call it stating my opinion...I would have had to provide a service in order to provide a disservice, to which my opinion is not!  If you don't agree with what I or APPLE has said, shrug and move on....

    Have a nice day :0)!

  • I have deleted the Facetime icon from a Contact but now want to reinstate it. How do I do this?

    On my iPad Air, I have deleted the FaceTime icon from many of my listed Contacts. Is there a way to restore the icon and FaceTime facility to selected contacts?

    Some of my contacts in Contacts have the Facetime icon in their listing, some don't. I guess I've deleted it from those where it's missing, though not sure how! How can I get it back when it's missing? in Edit, I can add new email addresses, phone numbers etc, but I can't figure out how to add FaceTime to a listing.

  • Friend with 3G iPad no FaceTime icon in my Contacts?

    Unlike other Apple contacts/friends and family, Deb (who has a 3G new iPad) has no FaceTime icon in the contact info for her on my WiFi iPad 2 but does have that icon in my iPhone 4 contact info.   Why? 

    Make sure she has registered her apple ID with the iPad and that she has FaceTime set up on her iPad.

    Depending upon the country in which you live, FaceTime may be unavailable. It is not available in the UAE. If it is restricted in your country, the app will not appear on your iPad. You cannot install the preinsatlled iPad apps nor can you delete them.

  • HT201272 FaceTime icon missing on iPhone 5. How do I get it back?

    Help! FaceTime icon has vanished on my iPhone 5...beginning to wonder if it was ever there!
    How do I get it back? It is part of the Apple built-in Apps. I can ask Siri to use FaceTime and it is on the buttons in contacts and both links work... but the icon is not on my home screen anywhere! I have it on my iPad.. so shouldn't it be on my iPhone as well?

    You don't have a separate FaceTime app on an iPhone like you do on an iPad, instead you access it via the button at the bottom of a contact in the Contacts app or Phone app.

    In settings, the FaceTime icon is not clickable and in home screen the FaceTime icon (application) responds with: "Account Restriction This iPhone is restricted from making FaceTime accounts". I have had a FaceTime account in good order for 2 years now and have not abused or excessively used it. Apple doesn't respond multiple messages, ISP is of no use.

    I have tried this and can see that FaceTime is ALLOWED in RESTRICTIONS
    I have tried also, in restrictions, other items regarding applications, iTunes App Store without results.

    Hold it down until the icon 'wiggles' and drag it to a back page or a folder you create for unused apps.

  • What's with the number in a red circle above the Facetime icon in the dock?

    What's with the number in a red circle above the FaceTime icon?  How do I get rid of it?

    I'm interested in this too, kongakut2012.  I can't see an envelope either.  I discovered that the number probably meant that I had a missed call, but when I cleared all recent calls (including the missed one) the number didn't go away.  So -- where's the envelope, please???

  • Where is facetime icon in iPhone5

    Can someone advise why I can not find the facetime icon?
    I do have facetime setted up from "setting".
    Thanks

    There is only a FaceTime Icon on iPad and iPod touch (and of course Mac), because those have no Telephone App. Since FaceTime is considered part of the telephone function on the iPhone, you can find it in the Telefphone App (or as roaminggnome already said, in the Contacts App).
    So from the Telephone App, you pretty much do what's already been said (Contacts, select the person you want to call, on the bottom of the page there's options like Message, Email, FaceTime. This is what you have to tap).
    You can also put contacts on the favorites list of the Phone App (pick either phone or FaceTime) so you have direct access, or you can tell Siri to make a FaceTime call with the person you want to talk to.
