Re: How do I enter numbers on face time audio?

[E.T.]

   I have not done this but see if this works on automated systems 
where you need to enter a menu option. Mute your call, this should allow 
you to respond to those prompts.

I am not sure that I understand the nature of your question, so the suggestion 
I am about to make might not even apply.

The only way I know of for making FaceTime or FaceTime audio calls is to make 
sure that the person whom I wish to call is in my contacts.  Once in my 
contacts, making a call is as straightforward as telling Siri, for example: 
„Make a FaceTime audio call to Mike Busboom.“

Once in a FaceTime conversation, I do not think that it is possible to send the 
tones representing the numbers to your FaceTime partner.  This approach works 
on the Mac, as well as on the iPhone.  Although I do not own an iPad, it would 
probably work their, too.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

Mike

Dear List,
Can someone tell me why I can’t press numbers using the top row, or the num pad 
while on a face time audio call?
Here is what I did.
In Text Edit, I highlighted a phone number
Pressed VO+Shift+M to open the menu.
from there I chose face time audio call.
after face time opened, I VO+Spaced on the call button.
Now I need to enter account numbers and select options, but I am not able to 
enter numbers.
Thanks in advance.
