When using Facetime or texting...

When using Facetime or texting, do you have to have internet?

Correct.
iPod touch: Requires Internet for texting and FaceTime.
iPhone: Requires Internet OR 3G connection for texting and FaceTime.
iPad: Requires Internet OR 3G connection for texting and FaceTime.
Mac: Requires Internet for FaceTime (no texting app as far as I know).

  • HT204380 When using facetime how many people can you be connected to at one given time? The reason for this question is I would like to utilize facetime for conference call meetings.

    When using facetime, how many people can you be connectedto at once? The reason I ask this question is, I am wanting to conduct teleconference meetings with my staff who are spread out throughout the state and I would like to be able to have seven people in total connected to facetime at once.

    Currently only one person. A lot of users want to be able to FT multiple users.
    Send feedback to Apple requesting it. Maybe in a future iOS update or iPad it will be available.

  • When using FaceTime, my iMac makes noises.  It dings like I am receiving an email and sometimes sounds like a busy signal, but this is while I am talking to someone. Any suggestions?

    Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
    Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
    I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
    I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
    Thanks again..
    Harv..

  • How much data is used when using facetime over 4g

    How much data is used when using facetime over 4g. Say a 10 min call over facetime, will it use few MB or more.
    Thanks,
    Manish

    It depends on how long you are on line.  What you could do is reset your data usage in settings/general/ usage and then start your FaceTime session and check usage after your session

  • HT204380 When using FaceTime can other devices on my account see my call?

    When using FaceTime can other devices on my account see my call?

    No. However, you'll save yourself a lot of annoyance if each device has its own Apple ID for FaceTime/iMessage.

  • HT2452 When using Facetime why do I go mute after 3 or 4 minutes

    When using Facetime or Skype why do I go mute after 3 or 4 minutes?

    You probably have a email client setup on your computer, which is deleting the emails from the server. Try checking web-based email to see if they show up there.
    Who is your email provider? Are you using a POP or IMAP email service?
    If you're using a POP email service, you may want to take a look at this Apple doc -> Using a POP account with multiple devices

    The <b>authorize<i></i>.net</b> website is using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving and filling the name and password.

  • When using FaceTime, all other sounds are muted. This defeats functionality. When will this be corrected?

    When using FaceTime, all other sounds are muted. This defeats functionality. When will this be corrected? Does anyone know of a "fix" for this problem? This definately is NOT a feature.

    yes, that is exactly what mine did too. I noticed that something is wrong after receiving calls and did not hear anything.
    It was like the IPhone did not realize that the headphone is not any longer plugged in. I m not sure weather I plugged/unplugged the headphones after this more than once but it startet working correctly.

  • When using facetime it only displays a picture and cannot view myself talking

    when using facetime it only displays a picture and cannot view myself talking. i can call out but the other person cannot view me. what am i doing wrong? how can i fix this?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
