Facetime for Mac not working

I'm stuck on the sign in logo for the past hour

I have the same problem too,
on a Macbook pro 13', non-snow leopard


Downloaded and installed standalone 2010-005, but nothing

I have the same error - iMac Pentium (OS X 10.5.8) and I've already re-installed the patch - no joy. Any help appreciated!

the webpage says

Requires Mac OS X v10.6.4 Snow Leopard or later.

:((

i'm getting the same error message and have this update installed already

I have all the updates and it is stuck at signing in.... have reinstalled,,, still no luck

I'm from Australia and I also havent had any luck signing in since 4:30am AU time and it's now 10:51am maybe it's only working in certain locations while in beta???

It is really odd... I've been trying for a few hours,,, am giving up.. going to let them work the problems out and will try later on

Do you have any IP blocking software installed? Anything that could cause the FaceTime app to not connect to the Apple servers?

I read on how others are able to facetime must be rolling out slowly and im on the west coast cali
screw it ill wait and try tomorrow

I dont have port blocking apps just the basic firewall stuff from System Preferences.app and FaceTime is allowed however I checked out http://apple.com/au/mac/facetime and confirmed that this page is active but when I click download it doesn't work, so i assume that its only gonna work in certain locations while in beta, unless anyone out of the US can confirm that would be great 😀

Facetime for Mac requires Mac OS X v10.6.4 Snow Leopard or later. Your profile indicates you are running 10.5, Leopard.

Thank you for pointing that out, yes my profile indicates 10.5 however I am running 10.6.4 I just haven't updated my details yet….anyways still no luck for me I tried changing settings on the router and I tried a different Apple ID and still didn't work any help/ideas is highly appreciated!!!

Wow...so I got it to work but there has to be a better solution. The problem is the router/modem.

My iMac is connected to a Vonage router/switch via an ethernet cable (not wireless).
I turned off the internal ethernet of the iMac and turned on WiFi and connected to a neighbors network and I was able to sign in right away and am using Facetime without a problem

So now how can I fix this permanently? Do I need a new router or what is it about the router I have that isn't allowing it to work?
