Why does my FaceTime take 4ever to connect?

I have a macbook pro. I tried calling iphone5s, took forever to connect. I called a iPhone4 and it was quick help!!!!

It could be a problem with the other person's connection. If that's the case, there isn't much you can do about it.

  • Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on facetime?

    Why does my iPad2 suddenly keep losing connection on FaceTime and tries to constantly reconnect?

    Does it happen anywhere that you use FaceTime or only in your home WiFi network? If it happens with your home network, have you tried power cycling your router? Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
    Turn WiFi off and on in the settings. Reset the network settings.
    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all?

  • Why does apple tv take hours to record

    Why does Apple TV take hours to record movies?

    Not sure what you mean by 'record movies'
    If you are trying to rent a movie and it's taking a long time before it starts then that is due to your connection.
    720P requires 6mbps for instant streaming
    1080P requires 8mbps
    You can switch to SD in the settings
    To check your connection go to speedtest.net

  • Why does my iBookPro drop its WiFi connection so often?

    My question: why does my iBookPro drop it WiFi connection so often, and what can I do to prevent it (or at least extend the duration of active connection)?
    I have an iBookPro running OSX 10.9.5, with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM.  I think my iBookPro is about 3 or 4 years old.
    What seems to happen is that I will use my iBookPro accessing mail & websites for a few minutes, and then when I try to send an e-mail, mail puts up a message that it cannot send mail with the selected server, so I need to either try a different server or try later.  Meanwhile I notice that the WiFi signal indicator shows full service, but when I run diagnostics it shows that the internet is not connected.  Opening the WiFi icon in the top menu bar shows that it is looking for Networks.  After an indeterminate time it finds the network I have had highlighted and logged into (my WiFi -5G router) since I opened my iBook when I arrived at my office.
    I often find I have to turn WiFi off, then back on, to get connection with the internet. 
    What's going on, and what am I missing?

    Hello jBookProAm, 
    If you are having issues with your MacBook Pro with maintaining a Wi-Fi connection, then take a look at the articles below to get it sorted out. The first article will talk about using Wireless Diagnostics, which you have already done, but also you look at the additional troubleshooting within the article for assistance. You may want to also create a new location as another troubleshooting option and those steps are in the second article.

  • Why does the keyboard take over and type c's all across the search box (no hands involved)?

    Why does the keyboard take over and type c's across the search box (no hands involved)?

    There are only three possibilities. Either a dangling hand hitting the c key, or if you have a bluetooth keyboard connected and something is pressing a key, or you have some bad harware.  Eliminate the first two, and if you still have the problem, take it in for service or replacement

  • Why does Perl 5.12 want to connect to daryl.dostech.ca and who the heck is Daryl?

    After recently installing Lion I'm getting a lot of Little Snitch hits from Perl.  WTH?  OK, I know perl is a proramming language great for string manipulation and widely used in network programming but why does something like that want to connect to a guy like Daryl?  I did a little investigation and it seems he runs or has something to do with the Spamassassin open sourcing here: http://spamassassin.apache.org/
    OK, fine.  So mail spam filtering?  Great!  But mail isn't running on this computer and I'm not running a mail server either. So why is OS X Lion wanting to connect to this guy?

    why does camera roll take up all my storage data and how do i get it free for space

    You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have  by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Why does App store take me to a different country store, yet does not return me back

    Why does App store take me to a different country store, yet does not return me back.
    Im in u.s., was searching for app, was asked to change store, i did, tried downloading canadian app, was informed i had to purchase from u.s. store (is this true, even though it is a free download) then it left me there without instructions on how to return to u.s. store.
    Now ipad is stuck in canadian store. How do i return to u.s. store?

    You have to find an app that is only available in the US store.
    If the problem is on an iPad, etc:
    Go to a search engine (like google) on the iPad/iPhone Safari and type in abc app download. Then find find a link that says iTunes.apple.com/us/app/abc-player. Tap it, and it will access the App Store. Eventually, a box should pop up that asks you if you want to switch to the US store. Confirm that, and it should bring you back to the US store. You don't need to download the abc app.
    If on a computer:
    I haven't confirmed it yet, but I believe there is a flag icon at the bottom of the iTunes Store main page similar to the one at the bottom of this page that you can use to change your country.
