No ringtone with FaceTime and no alert sound??

I have not been able to get a ringtone with FaceTime nor can I get an alert signal. Mute is off and volume control works.HELP

There is a button on upper right hand side of iPad, just above the volume slider. In settings this button can be set to either Mute sounds or Lock Orientation. You may have chosen the setting to Mute sounds and simply moving the switch may solve your problem. If that isn't the case, double click your home button and when the botton row of Apps appears, slide them with your finger to the right. On the very left you may find a mute icon and if you do, touch it and you will unmute sounds.

Problems with FaceTime and iMessage

My iPad mini isn't letting me log into iMessage or FaceTime. It asks for my Apple ID and I enter it but then it says "an error occurred during activation. Please try again." I'm getting very stressed and I really don't want to get a whole new device. Please help!!!

Problem with Facetime and my MacBookPro camera

Hello,
I've got a MacBookPro and I have a problem with Facetime and my front camera.
When I have a discussion with an iMac or an other MacBook the image received by the other person becomes fix.
To unfix it I have to put my finger on my camera and then everything is good until the next time, 4 to 10 seconds later I've got the problem again.
Perhaps somebody can help me.
My head on my screen is always good even when the bug appear on my correspondent's screen.
For information, the 2 mac have the same iOS version (OSX Lion) and Facetime version.

Hi Dave,
Edit: Well, I guess I was lost when I posted this. My answer was regarding a problem with OS X, not iOS. I'm going to leave the answer here in case someone else with a Facetime for Mac issue can benefit, because when you're searching for "Facetime AND Login", you could land in any discussion area. -Jerry
Keychain Access.app is in your Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
The path will be: Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access.app.
Keychain is where all your passwords are stored for those applications that you don't want to have to manually log into all the time.
It's a handy app to become familiar with, for instance if you want to look up a password or user name from the past.
Hope this helps you.

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??

I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

HT204053 I got an incorrect apple ID or password with FaceTime and iMessage why?

I got an incorrect apple ID or password with FaceTime and iMessage however not with iCloud why?

Yes, I am using the same ID on both devices. I also logged out of the iTunes application and back in but still get this same message. "The Apple ID you entered couldn't be found or your password was incorrect. Plese try again."
I have another subscription with Admin Magazine that appears to use the same interface and it was able to restore my purchases.

Screen flashes and no alert sound

Suddenly, with no changes to any settings that I'm aware of my screen has started flashing when it would usually play an alert sound. It's as though the Universal Access option is on to flash the screen, but it isn't. I've toggled this switch on and off to see if it was stuck, but all the options seem ok. Not really sure what to try next, any ideas?

HI Stuart,
Move this file to the Desktop.
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
~/Library/Preferences.
Restart your Mac. If the screen doesn't flash, then make note of your System Prefereneces, then move that .plist file to the Trash.

Problems with FaceTime and Time Capsule?

I was wondering if anyone who uses Time Capsule for their WiFi router has ever experienced any problems with FaceTime? I use that as my router out of state, and when placing calls to my Mom, she has a LinkSys router. Every time I go to try a FaceTime call, the sound is spotty, and then the call eventually craps out. However, Skype works just fine. During a recent visit to her home, I tried a FaceTime call and it worked just fine, which led me to wonder if it had anything to do with us having separate routers, or if it's a strength of the Internet connection signal? Was just curious if anyone else had similar issues? Thank you in advance!

Sounds like a Internet connection problem to me, probably too slow.
You can try identifing the more problematic router/Internet connection by FaceTime calling a iPhone on a 3rd Wi-Fi network. If it works from your location but not your mom's, then your mom's router or Internet connection is the problem. You can further narrow it down by switching routers after finding the location that has the problem.
You can check the speed of the Internet connect and make sure the wireless router is updated and configured correctly.
WTH.

Problem with rotation and keyboard click sound

Ok, there's still a problem with the rotation and keyboard click sound and I thought I had the problem fixed.
It's a serious bug when you want the keyboard click sound enbabled without having the rotation locked. I noticed this bug started when I had the previous iosinstalled 7.0.6.
Everytime I wanted to enable the keyboard click sound, I have to always go to settings and have lock rotation checked. And it would stay locked.
If I wanted to rotate my iPad, I have to have mute enabled, but no keyboard click sound.
I know it sounds confusing. I'm already confused... beh.

I completely forgot about that.
Thank you!

Email not updating automatically and no alert sounds since update.

Email was updating automatically before with no problem and alerting me with each new email. Since update I have to update manually and no alerts are coming through. Have checked my settings and everything seems to be fine. Any suggestions???

im not sure of a way to go in there and set it to automatically update. but i had that problem with some games and when i went to manually update them i scrolled down a little and it gave me the option to check a box to allow it to automatically update. you can check for updates in settings>about phone>system updates.

Login problems with facetime and Imessage

I have IPAD 2 upgraded to IOS 6.0. I am living at Alexandria EGYPT.
I didn't face any problem with both apps until the 2nd of October 2012. Since then and both apps telling me that Apple ID doesn't match with the entered password. The same password is used for app store and working with no problem, the password have been used even to log in to the support as well as Icloud.
I have tried the following actions with no result:
1- Soft reset the IPAD.
2- Time is set to automatic.
3- Set the time to USA.
4- Time set back to auto.
5- Connect using different WiFi networks.
I hope I can find a solution, I am using both apps to keep in touch with my family.

I did a total reset and start the IPAD as a new one before restore...same problem exist
after restore try again and with the same problem...
Finally I have created a new apple ID and used it only for facetime and imessages...and it works....
I can't really understand the problem....
It is not a problem with communication or IPAD settings because it worked with another apple ID
it is not a problem with server or account because I am still using my old ID with my macbook
strange

IOS 7 problems with FaceTime and messages apps.

Need resolution on why FaceTime and message apps are not accepting my password after loading ios 7.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

No sound with alsa and integrated Intel sound card, any advice???

I just got a new computer, erased the OEM windows install and installed Arch linux with xfce. I have an Integrated HDA intel sound card with Realtek ALC888 chip
Sound worked just fine in the windows install, so I know the card and speakers work.
I installed alsa and made sure to unmute PCM and Front speakers. Unmuting all of the entries didn't help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I am going through the wikiarticl on alsa as well, but if anyone can point out what the issue is hear I would greatly appreciate it.

Hmm. I have an onboard Intel sound chipset as well.. I noticed your rc.conf doesn't have "snd-hda-intel" in the MODULES array; make sure you add that.
I never figured out how to read the right side of lsmod's output, so I'll assume that, despite having the snd-hda-intel module, you haven't enabled it yet. Try (as root or through sudo) `modprobe snd-hda-intel`. It may need underscores instead of hyphens; they seem to be interchangeable.
