Unable to activate face time on mac

Downloaded fact time to mac. Icon says waiting -- what do I do next??

Same Here.
Apple explained it to me that the phone needs to send info to verizon and apple verifying that it is able to facetime and because of the lack of an identified network the phone does not know where to contact.
According to Verizon my phone is connected to their network, but not identifying on their end as connected on their network. Said I was on some sort of "extended operating network", but not recognized on their end as on the verizon network.
I went through the paces with both Verizon and Apple (both very helpful) to no avail.
Verizon is investigating the situation and is supposed to be contacting me back in the next day or so. Apple suggests waiting on Verizon's findings.

  • Unable to activate face time

    I downloaded FaceTime for Mac, signed into my account, selected my email address [email protected], click 'next' and get the message "Unable to verify email because it is already in use by another Apple ID.'  Why won't FaceTime let me use my normal email address?

  • HT4053 I have downloaded iOS 7 on my I pad but am not able to activate Face Time nor message. Please help!

    I have upgraded to iOS7 on my I pad wi fi+ cellular but am not able to activate Face Time and message. The error message I get says "Please check your internet connection". Please help!

    Try a Restart.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

    Hi,
    I see your using a MacMini (is that correct?) - does your monitor have a camera?
    My computer auto logs into F/Time when I open the App.. The Page is 50% image (left side) & 50% a list of all your contacts..L

    Hello Nikki
    I have won the battle.
    right let me tell you what  i did and in what order.
    First i restored my Ipad 2 to original factory settings, backing up content so i lost nothig.
    then i reset my router, this caused me a few probs as i am not that computer savvy and i needed netgear to help me re configure my router.
    after a long conversation with apple we came to the conclusion that the passwords were causing the problem.
    i spent time explaining to them that when i originally set up my itunes account and then my mobile me account there were no stipulations regarding numbers and capitals in passwords, hence when i got my IPAD my passwords were not "appropriate" even though they were working fine.
    I decided to reset ALL my passwords associated with I tunes, mobile me and addle ID to the correct requirements which are; at least 8 figures with at least 1 number and a capital.
    I then reset my DNS code on my IPAD to 8.8.8.8
    (go to WIFI settings, touch arrow to right of your network and change DNS code)
    and voila, it worked.
    I would try and sort all passwords out to correct requirements ( one number, one capital the rest can be lower case). then change your DNS code, then try face time.
    if that doesnt work then it may be a case of restoring factory settings on your IPad and resetting the router.
    I appreciate how frustrating this is as they are not cheap.
    loads of luck and do let me know how you get on.
    best wishes

  • Dear all, I am unable to use face time. It says "waiting for activation". Pls tell what should I do.

    Dear all, I am unable to use face time. It says "waiting for activation". Pls tell what should I do.

    I found a solution that solve the problem, and worked immediately.
    FaceTime worked for me since I purchased my iPhone 4 more than a year ago.
    It stopped working for me since I upgrade it to ios5.
    The reason is that I had Restrictions On: accounts set to "Don't allow changes"
    When you set this like that, you naturally blocking iCloud and FaceTime accounts.
    To solve the problem go to Settings -> General -> Restrictions, and make sure you "allow changes" to accounts and also enable the FaceTime app to work.
    Return to Settings -> FaceTime, and set it to 0 and back to 1.
    That should do the trick. ☺
    I recommend after to "Don't allow changes" to Accounts and Location, to block thieves disable the "Find my iPhone" functionality.  
    Good luck!
    Christophe

  • How to activate face time in an iphone purchased from dubai

    You will NEVER be able to activate FaceTime on that phone.  FaceTime is restricted from the phone on a hardware level.

    how to activate face time 5s in uae

    By the very fact that you cannot get FaceTime on the phone would suggest that it has originated from a Middle Eastern country.
    If you want FaceTime on your phone, then your only option is to buy a new phone from a country that does not ban FaceTime such as the UK or USA.
    You will never be able to get FaceTime on this phone and you will need to buy a new one if you want it.  No other option.
