. The Camera or microphone doesn't work: Camera and the microphone are an essential part of the FaceTime app. There is a chance that Mac's hardware is not connected with the system which could result in the application to crash. There might be multiple reasons that would cause the camera and the mic to stop performing its function. FaceTime is not available all across the globe therefore, the FaceTime app does not come preinstalled in all iOS devices. Therefore, if FaceTime is not available in your country, you will not have a preinstalled FaceTime app.
I do not know what you mean by reset. Try the following if you have not done so already:
- Unfortunately, you can run into an issue where you get the dreaded 'There is no connected camera' error when trying to use your Mac FaceTime camera. By reading the message, you might think this is a hardware issue, but it is usually caused by the software or an application that is already using your camera.
- If FaceTime is not working currently, you can see a hint on that page. While, if the page shows it is available currently, you need to use another method to fix the issue. The next method is worth trying. Fix 3: Check if FaceTime Is Working in Your Current Country. FaceTime is not available in all countries all over the world.
