Hey there FacetimeIssuesIneedhelpon,


We understand you're seeing an error about your iPhone when trying to use FaceTime on your Mac. We'll be happy to help.


To begin, we'd recommend going through the steps here: Sign in to or out of FaceTime on Mac

This explains how to sign into FaceTime on your Mac so you can use it.


Afterwards, use these steps: Use FaceTime on Mac

This will guide you through how calls can be made.


If you still experience this after those steps, tell us more about the issue.

- Are you able to sign in?

- What is the exact error message?

- If you can sign in, does this happen when calling all contacts or just some?

- Can you FaceTime from your iPhone?


Cheers!
