    Because your receiver may not be working anymore. Use http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630 to troubleshoot this

  • HT4515 Why can't I answer another call while I am on the phone?

    Why can't I answer the phone while I am on the phone?  I used to see the other call coming in, but that has disappered.

    1. Open the camera app.
    2. Move the slider from in the bottom right from photo to video.
    3. Begin recording your video.
    4. While your video is recording, tap the camera icon in the upper right to take a photo.
    5. You'll see the shutter close on your screen each time you snap a photo.
    6. Your photos will be saved to your camera roll.
    Edit:
    Just noticed you have a 4S...iPhone 5 only, sorry.

  • Why can't I answer a call with speaker on?

    iPhone 6; iOS 8.1.
    Generally when I'm at home I want to answer calls with the speaker on, but I don't see any way to do this [see note below]. Instead, I have to slide to answer, wait 1-3 seconds for the audio button to appear (bluetooth is enabled), and then touch "Speaker". In the interval, the caller hears nothing while perhaps saying, "Hello? Hello?". So if I want to converse with speaker on, I have to say, "Hold on" first, touch Audio and then Speaker.
    Note: I generally do NOT want to answer with speaker on when I'm away from home. There is a setting that I could theoretically use when departing and when returning home. The setting requires: touch Settings, touch General, touch Accessibility, scroll down, touch Call Audio Routing, and touch either Automatic (when leaving home), or Speaker (when returning).  That is not only too onerous, but I'm likely to forget to do it anyway.
    Am I overlooking a way to answer with speaker on? If not, wouldn't it be easy enough for Apple to put an appropriate button to do this on the incoming-call screen?

    Thank you for the info and links. I never actually read anything from Apple about Hebrew not being supported. Since I was able to use other languages, of seemingly greater complexity, I assumed that Hebrew would work. The patch I was speaking of (that makes Hebrew song titles, etc readable) is actually not a hack. It was developed by a student in an Israeli university and purchased by Apples regional distributor (Yeda Inc., Apple's Israeli distributor). The software is called iPodHE.

    I did read somewhere that they are working with Apple to resolve a conflict with the latest version of iTunes and iPodHE v2.0.
    Maybe this will be useful to someone.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Why can't I edit phone numbers in the dialer?

    If I find a number on the Internet, it is often (at least in Sweden) typed in with country code and then an optional 0 if you're calling domesically, e.g. +46 (0) 8-402 60 00. This number isn't dialable because of the extra 0 inserted there from misguided benevolence.
    My phone is also inside a switchboard and I need to add either a 0 or replace the first 0 with +46 (for a Swedish number) in front of every number to be able to make a call. Unfortunately the only way I can find to edit a phone number in the phone number dialer is to erase them from the last digit. Not very efficient if you want to replace the first digit!
    Why can't I edit phone numbers anywhere in the string of numbers as anywhere else in the phone and its apps?
    Now I have to copy the number either into a new contact or the notepad, edit and then dial.

    Copied from my answer to your other thread for your convenience:
    Unlike the iPhone, Android allows developers access to basic system functions. Although this means there are lots of apps that do interesting things like scheduling text messages (the one thing I really miss from when I had an Android), it also means the OS is significantly less secure. Apple's choice was security and stability. Google's was open platform at the expense of security and stability.

    I am traveling in Chile, South America. I purchased an Entel sym card and I can make and receive phone calls, but the internet only works on WiFi. Do I need to region unlock or what? I willl only be here for A month and a half so I don't want to buy a phone. Any suggestions?

    Most of the current Apple Intel based computers are comparable in CPU speed. I don't think it is so much the model of laptop as it is the memory, and storage capacity of the machine. If you are going to use FCP on a regular basis, perhaps as a professional or semi-professional, then you should think about the maximum memory and a very large capacity internal disk drive. For instance, one hour of finished compressed video will take up about 1.5 to 2Gbytes of disk space. If you add up the raw footage and still imagery and audio, you'll use up your disk drive capacity real quick. So a hard disk on the order of 750Gbytes @ 7200rpms might be good for video editing. 5400RPMs might be slow to rendering times. Rendering a video might take up a lot of memory so more memory is better e.g. 8Gbytes.
    As a rule of thumb, once you get to about 80% of your disk drive or memory you'll see degradation of performance.
    You can check out macsales.com. THey have a menu system that will allow you to pick and choose from various alternatives. BTW, it's been said that although Macs are typically spec'd at a certain memory size, macsales.com found that Apple computers will actually support higher memory levels. That is, if 4Gbytes are spec'd, some machines support 6Gbytes. macsales.com will provide the guidance for you.
    You might also consider buying an external disk e.g. 500Gbytes to carry around with you for back-up or transport to another machine.

  • Why can I not make a call or receive a call using my earbuds/mic?

    Why can I not make a call or receive a call using my earbuds/mic?

    I have the exact same problem.  I just updated to 4.3.3 and now my inline controls on my earphones don't work.  The earphones work, but the controls don't.  It doesn't even recognize that there is a mic attached.  Even with the earphones in it still uses the built in mic. Why did my controls stop working?!

  • Why can't I make any calls on facetime, the call drops after saying connecting.

    Why can't I make any calls on facetime, the call drops after saying connecting for a few seconds. I'm using an iphone 5, 32 GB on IOS 6.0.1 over 3G network in Muscat, Oman. Just to be clear, I was able to make facetime call in Muscat about a week ago.

    I am able to receive phone calls on my iPad air 2. But, I can not make any phone calls. I am using an iPhone 6. I have set up both as required. What am I overlooking?

    Hi Bo S.,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you cannot make an outgoing call using your iPad. Included below are the instructions for using Continuity to make calls from your iPad. If you are set up correctly and still are unable to make a call after following the information in the article, please let me know at what point in the process the failure happens and what happens at that point.

  • Can't make a phone call

    I keep getting an error that I can't make any phone calls on Samsung S5. I just missed an important call, and I can't call them back. Now they're closed. I'm furious. I have internet and text is slow but going through. I can't even call to get help on this issue. I saw a response to pm @ATTMobilityCares. How do I do this? How do I get help if I can't call? My truck is at the mechanic, and that's the call I just missed, so I don't even have transportation. Ughhhh!
