I'm not sure if this is the correct place to start this thread. I am having trouble getting FaceTime to turn on on my MacBook Pro. I don't think I've tried using it via my laptop since I upgraded to Lion a few months ago. It worked perfectly before the upgrade.
Problem: When I open FaceTime, the slider is set to "off." I slide it to on, and it hangs (see screenshot attached). The option to view preferences is grayed out. I don't ever remember turning it off; I'm not sure why it starts out that way.
I've googled the issue and searched these forums, but have been unsuccessful in finding a solution. Maybe I missed something.
Failed Solutions I've Tried:
1. I deleted the "com.apple.FaceTime.plist" preference file.
2. I added "8.8.8.8" and "8.8.4.4" to my DNS servers.
My info:
MacBook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2010
Processor: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 Mhz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
Software: Mac OS X Lion Version 10.7.2 (11C74)
I hope I did this right; I know it's annoying when there is an obvious solution out there or when someone doesn't post enough information. Thanks for any help!
