You are not talking to Apple here... we are all just users like you and have no inside knowledge of why FT is not operable over 3G, except for what Apple has said about the subject. I suspect it's a bandwidth issue.

  • Why can't I use FaceTime on my ipad2 using cellular network

    I can not successfully use FaceTime over my cellular network as advertised by the ios 6 upgrade.  I even got I message stating I had to use FaceTime over a Wi Fi network.  What's going on?

    FaceTime over 3G/4G is only on the iPad 3, not the iPad 2 - from the bottom of http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/
    3. FaceTime video calling requires a FaceTime-enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi-Fi connection. FaceTime over a cellular network requires iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, or iPad (3rd generation) with cellular data capability

  • Why can't I use FaceTime on my iPhone 3S?

    iPhone 2, 3 and 3S users should be able to use FaceTime just like Skype. Is there any way to activate FaceTime on my iPhone 3S running iOS 5.0.1?

    Well, I just thought it could work like Skype or Tango, I use them happily on my iPhone 3S using the rear camera. Also, I've tried FaceTime on my friend's iPod Touch 4 and it has an option to use the rear camera (Again, like Skype). Why not release an update with that? I think is a good idea. Anyways, thanks!
    So explain how you are video chatting using the rear camera? Obviously either A) you cannot see the person you are talking to because you are talking to the back of the phone or B) They cannot see you because you are watching them on your screen on the phone. What is the point of video chatting if you cannot do both A and B above at the same time? Just because Skype makes an inferior app doesn't mean it is worth using on a phone without a forward facing camera. Also my iphone 4S can change to the rear so people can see what I am looking at but most of the time I am facing them chatting. One other thing, facetime on my macbook only has the forward facing camera so I cannot change cameras on it. If you are seeing a trend here it is that you need a forward facing camera to use the phone and a iphone 4 or better. It was one of the selling points of the iphone 4 just like siri was the selling point of the 4s yet it is not on the 4 which is capable of handling it too.
    One final thing. There is no 3S. It is a 3GS or a 3G.

  • Why can't I use FaceTime on ipad? I had the ability, then I got my new phone and can't answer on my iPad, but can answer on my phone.

    I have been using my iPad to FaceTime. She. I got my new phone I started using facetime on that also. Now I can't get my calls to connect on my iPad. I have tried changing my settings so that only when you call using my email on my iPad and my phone number on my phone and selecting both on both devices and still no help.  What should my setting be on for my iPad and my phone so I can FaceTime on either one?

    Yes.  You are being paranoid.
    There is no Fcetime icon on any iphone.  You turn it on in settings.  Select a contact and scroll down to the facetime button in order to make a facetime call.
    You cannot delete or add the app store.
    It was likely on another page, in a folder or you have restrictions set.
    Don't know what "can't download anything " means.

    Why can't I use FaceTime on 3G internt

    This feature will only be available when the new update ios6 comes out in sept or october and will only be for the iphone 4s or the new ipad if havent got one of these devices then facetime will only work over wifi the reason apparently the older devices are unable to handle it requires more processing power.

  • Why can't I use data connection for FaceTime on iPhone 4

    My iPhone 4 says I have to use wifi in order to use my FaceTime and I was wondering why can I just use my AT&T data connection instead.Every other iPhone could use their FaceTime but the 4 cant.We have an update to be able to use both ?

    As already provided:
    "I believe AT&T requires that you be on one of the "shared" data plans in order to do FaceTime over cellular. If so, either change your plan or complain to AT&T, as this has nothing to do with Apple."

  • Why can my daughter use my cell number on her iPad for FaceTime and I message

    Why can my daughter use my cell number on her iPad for FaceTime and I message

    That's an account-level setting on the iPad.  Presumably you use your cell number as your Facetime account credentials on your phone, and the iPad is linked to your account as well?  You can go into the Facetime settings on the iPad and change what accounts can be reached on the iPad or used to make Facetime calls.  Same goes for Messages.

  • Why can´t i use face time call with on my ipod touch with ios6

    Why can´t i use face time call with on my ipod touch with ios6

    iTech, First change your apple password, than go to 'setting' and than click on 'Facetime' and make sure your facetime email is right than retry. Also calling apple support can help you or the best way is to go down to the apple store for direct help. I really hope that what i have told you have helped and try to reset your iphone.

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?
