IPhone :: No Facetime Option Or Settings For 4s IOS 5.1
Apr 20, 2012
An iphone 4s without facetime! I bought an iphone 4s from a retailer, i found out that the iphone 4s was originally came from UAE with a carrier etisalat. so called etisalat and i was informed by the Representive that the facetime was really banned in the country and was remove with the IOS 5.0.1 as defualt but they also verified that the iphone is factory unlocked, then i was advised that all i need to do is to restore the my iphone and i will have my facetime back since it is not banned in this country (Hongkong). so I tried to update my iPhone to iOS 5.1 however facetime setting still missing! check restriction no facetime, check phone setting and theres no facetime activation option. tried to factory reset the phone and choose country and region facetime still not available. So what i did is called apple and i talk to apple care Representative a very rude Agent and loves to Interupt his customers. i was told that whenever i update or restore my iPhone it contact the UAE apple server. and it doesn't make any sense im not in UAE im in Honghong. So i ask the rep. what can we do to make itunes contact hongkong or singapore apple server instead. Apple cannot give me a direct answer.So ask him if it something to with IMEI , Model or Serial Number, and they cannot give a direct answer again..... Come on Apple whats the sense of you releasing a factory Unlock if theres a Restrictions i Know that it the Law of UAE but you should do something About based on the location of the Customer....
i'm aware that there is no facetime in UAE before i bought my iphone 4s.
i'm just wondering why other iphone 4s purchased in local store in UAE have facetime option and mine which i bought in apple store UAE don't have facetime option.
Ok, so I have had my iphone since launch day. My fiance got hers today. We were going to try out the facetime so when we got home we logged into the wifi, but neither of us have the facetime camera icon under contacts, and when we call each other we don't have that option. What am I doing wrong?
I am a iphone 4 (OS 5.1.1) user with the device being bought from UAE but using in Saudi Arabia. I cannot see the option facetime or iMessage anywhere in my phone and settings. I searched a lot of threads on google but none helped me. How do I use facetime?
My iPhone4 , IOS 5.1 doesn't have Face Time activation option in the setting. Even if I try calling an iPhone contact , face time option is not available .
I just got a iphone 4s and am having problems with my imessage. I can turn it on using my apple id but my mobile number does not appear anywhere for me to choose it as an option. I keep getting "waiting for activation." The same thing is happening with facetime. I don't have the option to choose a mobile number.
I bought a new iPhone 4S and it seems that it misses the FaceTime functionality. I googled alot and all the solutions didn't fit my scenario, it doesn't appear anywhere, not in settings, not in Settings -> Phone, not in Settings -> General -> Restrictions and not in the contacts.I even checked in which country this phone should be in to make sure it's not for countries that doens't allow FaceTime at all and I saw that it was intended to be used in North America so this is not the case.
I just got a new iPhone 4s, the problem is i can't find the FaceTime icon in the settings nor in the calls, i can find it and use it on my other iPhone, i don't think because my location, because both of them are in the same area. Is there any way that i can activated FaceTime?
I have iphone 4s ios 7.1.2 facetime is not showing on the mainĀ home screen nor in settings and also no any option of facetime in restrictions I checked the list my network is supports facetime I am in malaysia I tried everything reset my phone switched of camera from restictions then I comppletly reset my iphone and all the steps i followed which are mentioned for troubleshooting....
I am trying to update my iphone 4 with the IOS5 update and its just not happening. After finally finding a program to transfer my music, etc off my phone to my pc i tried to do it through itunes but it keeps timing out, over and over again. So I have now gone to the apple site to find a way - it says you can do it through your phone using the 'Software Update' option in your Settings on your phone. However, I DON'T HAVE THE 'SOFTWARE UPDATE ' option in my settings - its just not there
I just bought the iphone 4s, as did my boyfriend. Both of us have no problem texting other people via imessage and text, but when we try to imessage one another, it comes up with two different windows. I checked the "Receive at" portion of the imessage settings, and although we both have our phone number linked to our apple id, it only shows up with email address. No Caller ID option, or phone number. The "remove email address" portion is also greyed out, and where my imessage is turned on, it says "waiting for activation." I checked with my apple id, and the email address is verified.
I have an Iphone 4S on ios 5.1.1, and there is no option for 'personal hotspot' anywhere in settings! How do I fix this? I have restored my iphone, but that didnt help. When I go to Settings > General > Network I get these options: Enable 3G, Cellular Data, Cellular Data Network, Data Roaming, VPN, Wi-Fi. My friends have iphones and have a 'Personal Hotspot' option. Surely we all have the same OS since we are all on 5.1.1! How can this happen? All other forums have told me to 'Acivate Personal Hotspot' with my carrier. But how can I do this if there is no option in the settings?
iPhone 4s, ios 5.1, Verizon customer. I have never had an issue until this phone. Why I can see the "delete from server" option, but I can't check it? It's really annoying to delete emails from my phone and then have to go back and delete from my computer.
I know this is everywhere, but my case is different. I had problems with my lockscreen which never turned off. I went to another forum and asked for tips, they said to Reset All settings (not erase all content). I did that, and guess what, it is stuck in the apple logo and sometimes with the spinning wheel. Now I CANNOT go into DFU mode because I do not have a backup of anything and if I restore im screwed and all my apps, contact, etc. will go away. I have access to the iPhone system folders (iFunbox, diskaid, etc.)
