Sabrina, If your friend doesn't have a 4S, or a 5 when it's released, you won't be able to FaceTime over 3G. The same goes for iPads with 3G functionality. You need the new iPad or later, I believe. I could be wrong about the iPad requirements, but I'm not about the phones. -Original Message

Hi, In the next week or so I am doing a consult via Facetime. Does any one know a convenient means for recording the audio from Facetime? The video is not of great concern, but capturing the audio would be valuable. Thanks for any thoughts. -Len -- You received this message because you

Hello, Create an iCloud account using the email address you want to use for Messaging and FaceTime. To do this, go to iCloud in Settings, and double-tap the button for entering an Apple ID. Your iCloud account can be different from your Apple ID. Best, Anna On Aug 23, 2012, at 11:48 AM

I've checked and can't see anything random, except phone number saying dimmed after it - did you say this didn't matter? I've discovered I can't FaceTime on my iPad or iPhone even though they're both set up. I tried turning off both FaceTime and the devices, but no difference. On 5 Jun

Hello Veronica, I am curious as to why you say Facetime is way more fun than Skype? Yes, Facetime does work well, but of course the other party does need also a Facetime compatible device such as an iPhone or iPad. Katey is also correct in that Facetime only works on WiFi unless you

This is all good but you must be connected to wifi as Facetime does not work over 3G unless your device is jailbroken. Christopher Hallsworth On 13/05/2012 02:47, Frank Tom wrote: I don't know if this has been discussed, but FaceTime is a great app for the blind. Call up someone you know

I totally agree with Veronica on this! I love FaceTime! Last week, when I got a Kindle, I had my brother do FaceTime with me to read my Kindle's Mac address, and some of the settings that didn't speak. He says the visual quality is much better than Skype. Definitely a helpful tool for blind

Yes, face time does require wi fi because it would really chew up a lot of data charges on 3G. And yes, it defaults to the front facing camera, but it's really easy to switch. It's also easy just to turn the phone around sometimes because the nice thing about Face time is that you don't have

Yes, in normal situations you have to be on wifi to use facetime. However if you jailbreak you can get past that. Just know it eats through data quite a bit though. -- Raul A. Gallegos Bartender, I'll have a Bin Laden What's that?... Two shots and a splash of water. Home Page: http
