I purchased an IPAD with retina display here in UAE, not knowing that it is not facetime enabled...is it possible to activate facetime once i send it to our home country so my daughter can use it?
iPhone 4, iOS 6.1
All iPad sold in the UAE have FaceTime disabled. No way to enable it.

No.
I beg to disagree...not all apple...iphone or ipad here in uae is facetime disabled...some shops are selling with facetime so i want to know if it is possible to change the settings and bring it to an apple service center in my country and change the program of the IPAD...
Thanks...
No harm trying Apple in your Home country.

@Katie_G Those shops are selling gray marked products that were not intended
for the Middle East. Most have been hacked to operate in other
than original market and have no local warranty other than what is provided
by retailer.
iPhones and iPads sold through approved retailers in the UAE, KSA and some
other Middle Eastern countries have FaceTime blocked per government
restrictions, and FaceTime cannot be installed even when taken out of the
restricted countries.
I bought an ipad here in UAE and i will be sending it to my home country...is it possible that they change the format and add facetime so my daughte can use it?
