my facetime isnt working i have wifi my friend said she tried to pik up and it just said facetime failed or facetime ended HELP ME APPLE BTW APPLE STINKS!!

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3367 is the article for troubleshooting facetime.

I have the same issue, just started about 12 hours ago. All of my devices and computers now get the same error "FaceTime ended" immediately after connecting with facetime.

FWIW, that troubleshooting document is of ZERO help. The problem clearly is something on Apple's side, as it's affecting only certain people.

Check this out. We're not alone...

It's being reported by many users that the problem is only occurring if you are running iOS 6 on your device. iOS 7 users are not facing the issue. If possible, upgrade your device. If you are not able to upgrade, you'll need to wait on Apple to fix the issue

Contrary to many reports, the issue is not restricted to iOS 6 only. Many are having issues with iOS 7 and OS 10.9 as well. Thinking it must be something on Apple's end. Wish they'd hurry up and fix this.

Agreed, I'm running ios7.1 and 6.1.2 and neither device is functioning.

Same here.

If you are running IOS 7 and also having problems ...I am surprised. I have five children running IOS 7 ... And they are not having problems with Face Time...only me, as I have successfully resisted updating to IOS 7 so far ....but this might be the thing that pushes me...I just don't like the graphics or the colors. Maybe Skype?

My wife is having the same problem and she's using IOS6 and I'm on IOS7. If you call or call from IOS6 device, that's the issue. If you're calling from IO7 TO IO7 device, no issues. She's been reluntant about upgrading, but I guess this will push her over the edge.

On the 18th of April, I along with the rest of my family members all started having the "FaceTime connection issue" around the same time and day. It only seemed to effect our iPhones. As we could FT ipad to ipad or iPod to ipad and vice versa with no problem... Our phones where on the iOS 6.1.3...

I opened a support chat with an apple tech and they couldn't tell me why this happening. However, they told me that I would need to upgrade iOS.... I was really trying to hold off upgrading, but wanted the FaceTime feature to work. So, after trying everything possible to make FaceTime work without upgrading and having no success, I upgraded the device. I tried FaceTime and it works fine.... I think Apple was doing some kind of maintenance on the 17th, after that many people (globally) started having issues with FaceTime.... Go figure... "I think it was a Conspiracy, to force everyone to be on the new iOS" Anyway, Upgrade it, you will feel like you have a new device! I'm glad I did!

I have upgraded but still not working from same dates :( I need FaceTime to keep in touch with my family.

If your family members upgrade theirs as well? If not, you can't FT them until they do as well. My wife and her mother both did and it's working now for both of them.

I had this problem, communicating between a laptop running Mavericks, and an old ipod touch running iOS 6. I upgraded to the latest version of iOS6 (not 7, that model touch can't run iOS7) and it fixed the problem.
