Hey everyone, I started having this weird bug that I can't seem to figure out. Basically, whenever I get a phone call on my iPhone, I get the ringing on my Macbook Pro as well. However, whenever this happens one of my paused youtube videos unpauses and starts playing in my chrome window. Does anyone else have this bug or know a fix?
MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.14
I solved the problem by disconnecting FaceTime on my Mac from my iPhone. Go to FaceTime on your Mac, select Preferences, and uncheck "Use your iPhone cellular account to make and receive calls when your iPhone is nearby and on Wi-Fi." That stopped it.
Hey Apple, any fix to this? really annoying, especially since the clip that plays makes it impossible to hear the other person in the call
Apparently this bug is fixed in the next version of Chrome (current release is v75, fix is in v76): https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=961308
Same issue happens to me. I am using Mojave v10.14.5 (18F203). This is very disturbing and annoying
This is a bug with Chrome. The Chromium team are working on it for V76, but the stable version is not out as of the date of this writing.
Such a funny bug. I have this issue too
Thank you for this Robert. It's finally been solved! I wish your post was at the top of the page!
Happy to help.
Thanks a lot! I was going crazy!
Agreed. It's a workaround. I believe the Chromium team are working on a solution for the next version of Chrome. Once they fix the problem we can reconnect FaceTime—if we choose to do so.
But does this mean, I won't be able to then answer calls on my Macbook?
Unfortunately for us that use this function, turning off answering calls on the Mac is not an option. I will just wait for Google's 76 update and hope it is fixed.
THIS THIS THIS!!! 100% the same. . . trying to fumble around with so many tabs AND Desktops open is a nightmare. PLEASE FIX THIS!
Please fix this. I keep a few Youtube videos pulled up a lot for research. When I get a call, I loose my place. Very frustrating.
I would also like an answer to this please!
Yeah, this is a longstanding issue. Super annoying.
When receiving phone call, youtube video unpauses
