Facetime setup on iPhone etc

[Anonymous]

I recently was having issues with using Facetime between my iPhone and iPad. I managed to solve it by doing the following.

Basically when I was trying to Facetime my iPad from my iPhone, It would show on my iPhone's screen that my iPad was busy at this time, but yet the iPad rang once and went off.

Here's what I did:

On the iPad:

Go into Settings, down the left handside of the screen choose Facetime.

Next touch the Apple ID and sign in, and select email address for to be reached at.

Make sure in the YOU CAN BE REACHED BY FACETIME AT section,  that you only have the the email address ticked.

On the iPhone:

Go into Settings, scroll down until you see Facetime, touch this.  On the next screen, make sure that you ARE NOT signed in with Apple ID. And only have phone number selected, in the YOU CAN BE REACHED BY FACETIME AT, section.

Facetime should now work perfectly.

Glad I could help. In light of that, it would seem you iPad has developed a fault in its microphone. If you want to, at least you can go to the Apple Store or contact Apple and tell them about the fault and that you've tried the earphone's microphone and that works OK. If you can get to an Apple Store, I reckon they might swap the iPad on the spot
