Where does FaceTime get your contacts from?
This is on a mac, not an iPhone. I rarely use FaceTime but I went to call a friend. When I went to my contacts list, it has a whole bunch of people listed. I know all these people but most of them not well at all. I thought it was from my phone, but some of the people, I've never had in my contact list before. And some who were, were not on the list. My high school chemistry teacher is even on there. I'm super confused haha.
Your mac syncs the contacts you have on any device when you log in with your apple id. It got them from your phone or another device (like an iPad?) I believe it also has the ability to sync from Facebook and your email.
Either your phone contacts (if you've ever plugged one in) or your email contacts - ever emailed your chemistry teacher about homework or something? That'll be why the address is on there.
Open Address Book. Any contacts there? When you use AppleID on more than one device, such as also on your iPhone, the contacts are combined.
Apple Mail also syncs contacts to FaceTime from all the email addresses there. Annoyed? I would be also, but the only recourse is to send feedback to Apple to allow unsynced, full user chosen contacts. That will probably happen in the year… No.
- When you sync your iphone to your computer does it copy everything onto your pc? I have broke my iphone to the point where it is un repairable, i only sync my iphone the other day to my pc does this mean everything what was on my iphone was copied and saved to it? Or have i lost everything?
- Is it normal that your iphone stores numbers for all your facebook contacts? I just connected my iphone to facebook and now I have every phone number of my contacts. Is that normal and does that mean they have me now?
- If you FaceTime on an iPhone 4 does it add on to your bill? Hi I'm 13 and my dad sent my an iPhone 4. If I FaceTime on it will he be able to see if I FaceTime or text?
- I restricted FaceTime from my child's iPhone 5s but she can still make FaceTime calls to her friends because there's a video icon? There's a video icon next to her friends name in her phone list. How can I completely remove this icon please?
