Hello, friends.
In order to run FaceTime on Lion, solving the server registration issue, you must create a new password key in Keychain, with the following parameters:
Name: com.apple.facetime: registrationV1
Account: registrationV1
Where: com.apple.facetime
Then, restart your Mac.
Best regards!

Thanks and this is good but I am no programmer and have no clue where to find the key chain. It would have been nice if you gave a little more detail on this fix, which we users shouldn't even have to deal with. They should have resolved this with a simple login.
Thanks,

Sorry, didn't work for me :-(
ditto. doesnt work for me. even tried restarting. sigh.
now the trash wont even empty properly but another problem for another time...
When adding a new password item, you must supply a password.
Are you giving it your factime account password?
Then *after* it's been saved, it seems like you would have to go back into the item and edit the "where" to be correct?
In looking at my other mac (that works) I do see two entries:
com.apple.facetime: registration
com.apple.facetime: registrationV1
Neither of them seem to have passwords explictly set. Yet I don't see a way to do that :/
Didn't work for me either, tried all possible solution stated above.
Doesnt work here either.. :\
Anyone else notice it deletes the file you make when you try to login to facetime and makes a new one with ur email
This just worked for me I'm a happy camper LOL! 🙂😁
follow link below for possible solution.
Hello, DigitalAddict.
Yes, you must supply a password, your Apple ID password.
Good luck!
Didn't work for me either, tried all possible solution stated above.
Same here. WHen i try to login and erases the file u made and puts a different one.
It works for me, thanks Macarion.
Finally! It works! Thanks so much, this was driving me insane.
Still not workin' for me. I've tried all of the fixes:
Hosts file
DNS change to 8.8.8.8 on router
Adding password item
Glad these fixes are working for some folks.
I hope Apple can figure out what's going on here and repair it as Facetime was working great in Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
Might be a weird question but are you on a legit mac?
(Probably) SOLVED: Facetime on Lion
