Aug 2, 2012 10:53 AM in response to bigham_511by hood727,I don't know how to tell everyone at once so if you know how please get this around the forums;
With the computer off, using the left side of the keyboard press and hold;
Shift
Control
Option
and the power key for 5 seconds
1.....2.....3....4.....5...
then let go of them all at the same time
Nothing will appear to have happened- Turn your computer back on and open facetime- YEAAAAH Buddy! Just worked on mine and feel its my duty to tell others. No clue how to post in all. Thanks to a sweet girl named Rachel at Applecare.

Any other thoughts out there???

Sep 11, 2012 2:34 PM in response to Tom Greatorexby macphees07,My 2012 mac air has the same issue. A reboot will temporarily fix it. Seems like it's an Mountain lion issue.

Sep 22, 2012 12:21 AM in response to Tom Greatorexby warth0g,I have same issue on my 2012 Air. A restart will temporarily fix it but after I have closed the lid (sleep?) and reopened, Facetime doesn't work any more. Mountain Lion 10.8.2 didn't fix it so I guess Apple haven't prioritised the issue.. :-(
