i can not dial number in mac ,i have a problem says "iPhone calls not available your iPhone must use the same iCloud and FaceTime account" what can i do? its the same account!!!!

Possibly something you've already checked: do both your iPhone and your Mac meet the feature requirements for handoff support?

Here's the fix: iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage

we have this problem too...we can't do anything .ithink we could wait for iOS 8.1 or yosemit update

Your cellular phone number must appear in Messages and FaceTime on your mac. That is the fix.

Just something else to check:

I had logged into iCloud during setup with a mac.com address for iPhone and macbook and they both worked. For my iMac, i used a me.com address. The iMac got the message "iPhone calls not available ...". I logged out of iCloud and logged back in with the mac.com address and it worked. They all tie to the same account, but it appears that it was treating them as different accounts.

To be clear - on your iPhone go in to settings, in to FaceTime and check that the Apple ID it's using is the one your using on your Mac.

You can of course sign in using a @mac, @me and @icloud account so simply make sure you're using the same account on both devices. I had been using @me on my iPhone and @icloud on my mac - once I made my iPhone use @icloud.com it all worked.

What I found was - when adding the same account to my iPhone, on my mac a message popped up asking if I wanted to add my cell phone number to iMessages and FaceTime - I clicked yes, and could then make calls from my Mac. Hope this helps!

Here is a solution that worked for me:

1. Go to "Settings" on your iPhone.

2. Go To "messages".

3. Turn off "iMassage" and then turn it back On.

4. Your Mac will ask you if you wish to add your cell phone number (even if it was added in the past).\

5. Try calling a cell phone number now.

Worked for me.

Good luck.

This works! Thanks!

This did the trick for me as well (step 4 wasn't necessary though). Thanks!

I had this issue too, and the info above helped me.

Although I was logged in on imessage, i was unabe to select the outgoing id (checked what it was by sending an imessage to myself). Loggged out of imessage and loged back in then could select the correct account.
