3: If you can't make or receive FaceTime calls
Follow these steps if you cannot make FaceTime calls.
4: Reactivating FaceTime in iOS and OS X
If you run into FaceTime won't activate or not available on Mac, follow the steps below to activate or reactivate FaceTime on Mac.
Open FaceTime application in OS X and go to FaceTime on top menu, and choose Preferences. Moving FaceTime to OFF and then back to ON will complete the reactivation procedure.
5: Reset Network Settings
Resetting Network Settings will remove all saved Wi-Fi networks, Bluetooth pairing records, VPN or APN settings, but it will not erase other data & settings in your device, so it is worth trying when you cannot connect to FaceTime.
In Settings > General > Reset, choose Reset Network Settings. This will take a few minutes.
6: Repair iOS System
