Hi Joseph. You have to turn off wifi on both your iPhone and your iMac. When I did this, everything worked. Shawn Sent From My White MacBook On Oct 18, 2014, at 1:54 PM, Joseph ablindvou...@icloud.com wrote: No Go! Hello folks. Well here’s the summery. I switched off the Wi-Fi on my

If you go below the choice on the mac that says the iPhone is dimmed, you should see the number (if it is a number), that you've chosen to call. Rachel. On 10/18/2014 11:54 AM, Joseph wrote: No Go! Hello folks. Well here’s the summery. I switched off the Wi-Fi on my iPhone. After about a minute

Hello, I am using ethernet on my iMac but they are both on the same network. Perhaps that’s the problem. But why wouldn’t it work through ethernet over the local Wi-Fi network. Ok, I’ll switch to Wi-Fi on my Mac and see what gives. On Oct 18, 2014, at 11:58 AM, Shawn Krasniuk

Hi Joseph, When you arrow or VO down Below where iPhone says call using iPhone is dimmed, do you see the number? If so, press enter on the number and the call will connect. Does that work? Cheers, Ed On 18 Oct 2014, at 20:42, Joseph ablindvou...@icloud.com wrote: Hello, Disconnected

It has worked both ways for me. I have to say that the quality wasn’t spectacular though so I’ll probably only use it when really helpful. My phone usually sounds terrific but my Mac sounds like an old cell phone, LOL. On Oct 18, 2014, at 3:12 PM, Cheryl Homiak cah4...@icloud.com wrote: I
