The addition of cameras to the iPod Touch has allowed for the device to make FaceTime calls. Now iPod Touch owners can call iPhone owners and see each other face-to-face almost effortlessly.
However, FaceTime is easy to initiate on a phone. You simply call someone as you normally would and touch the button that says "FaceTime." Simple.
Unfortunately, the iPod Touch doesn't have a phone App, which means you can't just dial someone's number and initiate a FaceTime call. Same goes for someone with an iPhone trying to contact someone with an iPod Touch…they can't just dial a number.
So how does one make a FaceTime call on an iPod Touch? We'll tell ya.
First things first:
- As you may know, FaceTime only works over wifi. That means that both parties must have a wifi connection and their device (Whether it's an iPhone or iPod Touch) must be connected to the internet over a wireless network.
- You must also have an Apple ID. If you don't have one yet, you must create one. Your Apple ID is the same ID you use to log into iTunes and make purchases.
1) Launch FaceTime on your device:
2) Sign in with your Apple ID.
3) Choose your current region in the location screen.
4) You will also need to enter the email address that others should contact you on through FaceTime. If it's your first time, you should check your email for a confirmation message. Know that if you already use your iPod Touch's email App to check your email, the confirmation is automatic, because it's already registered with Apple.
Now You're ready to go! You've signed in and created your account. It's time to make a call.
5) Now you must choose someone from your contacts (make sure they have also set up their FaceTime account)
6) When you see that person in your contacts, if your FaceTime settings are on, you will see the FaceTime icon near their contact information, as shown below:
Know that for your contacts, you can add their email address for those who are on an iPod Touch and you can add the phone number for those who are on an iPhone 4.
5) Now have fun talking face-to-face. Check out settings such as portrait and landscape, switch cameras, show dad his new grandson, or your boyfriend your new haircut, you get the idea.

My iPod touch doesn’t have FaceTime!
your ipod should have facetime
You need to go into your App Store and download “FaceTime App” It’s FREE! Then you can FaceTime with your anyone with an iTouch (4th) or iPhone4 that is likewise set up. Works international and it’s FREE!
Cud anyone pls provide ur Id or number so fat I can check my iPod?
when i facetimed my friend at the mall it went through but when i did it at home it says their unavailable
they have to be on WIFI
When I Press The Number To Call Someone On Facetime It Says “Name” Is Not Avaliable For Facetime ????
Confused :/
ONly people with iPhone can get facetime calls and they have to be on wifi.
If your Face Timing from iPod to another iPod, you need to have the persons email in the home or work section and not try to Face Time with their # for texting app. That was my problem.
If its something else, best of luck to you!
what do u have to type in to face time to get theyre contact ?? do u type theyre e-mail adress ? please s0omeone tell me
also how do you log into facetime ?
If using e- mail address to use I touch, can you see what someone is saying on your e- mail? Also can you
Listen?
Someone should try to facetime me because mine wont work like at all and I have no idea if its just the people I try our what. It stinks. 815-661-2205
trying to call my friend using her e-mail but I wonder if she needs my e- mail in her contact list to make facetime call ipod touch to ipod touch
no, she does not need your contact info. it will work for as long as both address on each side are configured for facetime.
Just used this for the first time calling someone in new York (I’m in London). They have have a touch and I have an iPad 2. Works fine but only as long as we are on the landline at the same time. We do not use the phone as we can see and hear each other over the facetime but as soon as we hang up the home phone the connection is dropped. Any idea why this might be? Like I say it is our first time so might be missing some obvious. Thanks Edward
Is it possible to have facetime on five different ipod touch 4g with the same itunes account?
yes, but the will not be able to call each over unless your will add 5 different emails for your facetime.
I’ve done everything it says to do…but all I show is the person’s icon…their name….their phone number…their e-mail address …& a button that I cn click to …”SHARE CONTACT”.
If I click on their e-mail address it takes me to a page where I can type a message and send it.
But if I click on their phone number it does NOTHING!
I don’t show any other choices but “SHARE CONTACT”.
I’m connected to wi-fi & as far as I can tell all of my settings for this are ‘on’.
if you buy a used ipod is there a way to set up a different facetime account other than the one that was set up by the original owner
how do you download facetime on the computer
on facetime it says to sing in with my apple acount and i do but when its verifying it goes back. What do i do?
Ok just like Linda Murray, I did everything it said to do but I do have the FaceTime button, I just don’t have the camera next to the word “FaceTime” like this article shows… What am I doing wrong?
Hey i need someone to facetime with ive never done it and sounds fun no wierdos please and no one older than 18

Ok I have set up my FaceTime and when I try FaceTime it says the person is unavailable? What do I do?
can you facetime with 2 ipods that are set to the same apple id? my childrens ipods are set to my email address. and are trying to facetime eachother but it says they are not available. any thoughts?
yes you can do it, just on facetime each device needs to be configured with different email
