Q: Lync hijacs "Default for calls:" settings in FaceTime

Hi

 

I´m trying to set up my FaceTime to receive and initiate calls from my IPhone. I get the notification when I receive calls, but I get an error message when trying to answer. In the setting for FaceTime the setting for ”Default for calls:” is set to LYNC. When I try to change this setting to FaceTime and restart the FaceTime app the setting is always converted back to Lync.

OSX El Capitan 10.11.3

IPhone 6 IOS 9.2.1

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.2.1

    Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:

    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices/com.apple.launchservices.secure.plist

    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select  

              Services Show Info in Finder (or just Show Info)

    from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.

    ☞ Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?

    ☞ In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?

    ☞ What is the Modified date?

    If you don't have read and write access to the item, change the settings as directed here. Note, however, that if one file has wrong access settings, most likely others do as well. If the item is locked, unlock it.

    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.
