Why can't I make a call to a macbook pro

I try calling my daughter's macbook pro, using her email address....it says connecting, but never connects....she says it freezes on her end.  She is able to facetime with other macs okay.

If the Mac is that new, it's 10.6 - Snow Leopard.
Have you tried to FT with anyone else?

    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.

  • Why can't I connect to iCloud on my macbook pro?

    Why can't I connect to iCloud on my macbook pro?

    Not sure what you've tried so far to connect. But, make sure you have an Internet connection and log into iCloud with your Apple ID/password from System Preferences/iCloud.
    If the OS X you're running is prior to 10.7, you won't be able to use iCloud as this feature was added to OS X beginning with OS X Lion (10.7).

    Why can't I originate calls on my 4S after updating to IOS7?
    I can receive calls, and it lets me dial, but then nothing happens.

    Apparently I had lost cellular service and only my wi-fi was working.
    I took the phone into AT&T and the cellular suddenly started working.
    No explanation, nothing was done, but now it works.

  • Why can't I play Blu-ray Disc on MacBook Pro?

  • Why can't i find iWeb on my new MacBook Pro

    I have a new and completly updated MacBook Pro with OS X version 10.8.2, but i can't find iWeb in my system. How come? And where can I find it? Maybe download iWeb elsewhere?

    iWeb, along with iDVD, was discontinued by Apple from before Lion was released.  If you have the disks that came with your previous Mac you can use the disks that came with it to install iWeb.  Or if you have your previous Mac you can just copy iWeb from it to your new Mac.
    Be warned that iWeb 2 does not play well with Mt. Lion.  iWeb 3, however, works fine with Mt. Lion.  If you didn't have iWeb 3 previously you can get it by purchasing iLife 11 or 09 from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: iLife 11 or eBay.com.
    The following will help you launch your website in iWeb the first time:
    In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Why can't I setup iCloud mail on my MacBook Pro?

    Context: I had two accounts configured in my Mail.app - an Exchange account for work, and a personal iCloud account. I've had the iCloud account since it was .me, and it has worked fine until recently. It also continues to work fine on my iPad and iPhone and on the iCloud website. So here is what I have experienced...
    In August, this account stopped working on my mid-2010 MacBook Pro. I started getting errors telling me my password was not accepted by the account anymore, and no matter what I tried, I could never get the account working on that MacBook after that. I didn't really care that much at the time because I knew I was getting a new one soon, and sure enough I did. I received my MacBook Pro with Retina sometime in September.
    On day one, I configured all of my account settings through iCloud and the Mail app, and everything was great. Emails coming in and going out, notes being perfectly synced... it was great. This lasted until Thursday or Friday of last week. I powered up my MacBook and saw my iCloud account was offline in Mail. When I tried to take it online, I received (and still receive when I try to set it up) this error:
    "The iCloud IMAP server “p01-imap.mail.me.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages."
    I know the credentials are accurate, I know my Internet is fine (and I've done this at multiple locations, home/work/Beaners), and I know I've tried every troubleshooting step I can find for this. I did the signing out of iCloud and rebooting thing, that did not work. I also cannot enable mail or notes through the iCloud preference pane. I know this because when I try, I receive the following error:
    "iCloud Mail couldn't be enabled from the iCloud Preference Pane."
    It then suggests for me to set it up through the Mail app.
    Here we are.

    I still continue to see no answer to this. I have icloud enabled and working on my iphone and ipad but it just will not work in mail on the Mac
    All I ever get is the same message:
    The iCloud IMAP server “p01-imap.mail.me.com” is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable. If you continue, you might not be able to receive messages.
    Trust me, I've followed all the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • Why can't I receive a fax on my MacBook Pro?

    I have just purchased an Apple USB modem to be able to use the fax software that came with my new MacBook Pro.
    I sent a fax to Japan - no problem - it went fine and was received.
    However, I was not able to receive the reply. The incoming fax was not recognized by the MBP. I set the number of rings at 2 for the fax to be automatically picked up by my computer, but the phone kept ringing and the computer never got the fax. I checked all the settings and they are all OK. The menu bar pull down for fax never even showed me "Answer Now" to let me manually get the fax. All it shows it Status : Idle... in grey - not clickable.
    I quickly turned on the G4 and asked Japan to resend the fax. I got it fine.
    I've read a few other entries here - seems like the fax software with OS X is not very good.
    Does any one have any suggestions for what I can do? (My G4 is dying and I don't want to rely on it for faxing.)
    OR could it be my new modem? But it worked fine for sending...

    I don't have Leopard but I've seen Leopard's Sys Prefs Print& fax and it's kinda sorta similar to Tiger's. So I'm going from memory here, okay? In Sys Prefs' Print&Fax, you should see a list of printers and fax modems on the left hand side. If you single-click on the Apple USB modem that should be on that list and authenticate, it should "ungray" a "Receive Options" button. Then click on it. A new window opens. Is the "receive faxes on this computer" checkbox checked?
    Or are you still running Tiger on your MBP? Then in Sys Prefs' print&fax, faxing panel, is the "receive faxes on this computer" checkbox checked?

  • Why can't I sync iPod touch calendar with macbook pro any more with latest OS X?

    since most recent software update with my macbook pro, contacts, calendar no longer syncs when I connect ipod touch with macbook pro. hate the cloud and want to stay "old fashioned". how can I?

    If you have Mavericks the only way to sync those items is via iCloud.
    If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

  • Why can I log into some websites on my MacBook Pro and not on my MacPro?

    Only just started happening...I have used 3 different browsers on my MacPro and still can't log into some webpages where a password is required.
    Flickr, eBay, some on line shopping sites....
    i have deleted cookies, cache, history, everything. Reinstalled the application (Firefox and Safari) but nothing.
    Go to my new MacBook Pro and it connects..
    I plan to do a full combo download and install of 10.6.8 however can't work out what's broken? I use Virus Barrier and MacScan but have (I believe) turned them off.

    Thanks for the advice everyone.
    Working through them without much luck...
    New user didn't help.
    Have turned off MacScan.
    No improvement as yet.
    P.S. Not sure how MacScan and Virus Barrier X would interact as they seem to do different things... I got both of these as apps in bundles so didnt really specifically buy them.
    I can't see any proxy setting in network preferences so will need to go into virus barrier and check.
    Reading the "recommended text" on Virus's for homework.
    Tomorrow it will be Appzapper for them both if the patient shows no sign of improvement.

  • Why can't I finger scroll on my 17" MacBook Pro, 3.1?

    I have a 17" MacBook Pro, Model 3.1 and since I have installed Lion, I can no longer finger scroll.  I am able to scroll using the scroll bar, but not the fingers.
    Are the older computers not able to accommodate the all the new finger scrolling advances?

    Older laptops do not support the newer gestures; my Macbook is an early 2009 and does not. Your model is from late 2007/early 2008 - I would say gestures are not supported. Not sure where the cutoff was - I think it was late 2009 models.

  • Why can I not make video calls using Skype?

    I'm really baffled. I have a month old MacBook Air. I use Skype daily for work and personal business. Never had a problem until this evening. I went to make a video call and Skype was not linked with the camera - there was no option to make a video call and when I went into Preferences, it said I had no camera. I then used FaceTime - person I was calling also had FaceTime, so it wasn't an issue - but I've now spent an hour trying to solved the problem, including logging in and out of Skype, closing the app and reinstalling, all to no avail. The camera functions fine with FT and other apps - why will it not sync up with Skype after it's worked fine? Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
