IOS and Mac OS X users who have problems with FaceTime already have an official solution from Apple, although more than one will not like it at all: updating the system. Apple has acknowledged the FaceTime flaw that many users have been suffering from for a while and that prevents them from using the video calling system for Mac, iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, and ensures that the flaw is caused by a necessary certificate having expired, and therefore the only possible solution is to have the latest version of the operating system for each device installed. This means that if your device is one that supports iOS 7 (from iPhone 4 and iPad 2 onwards), you must necessarily update to the latest version of the system available (iOS 7.1.1).
With the problems that some users of other systems have to get their devices to update to the latest available versions of their operating system and Apple users complaining because the apple company forces them to update to the latest version. It may seem strange, right? But is that many iOS users don't want to upgrade to the new iOS 7. Either because the new aesthetics of the system do not like, or because it seems to them that its performance is not adequate on their device, or because they have Jailbroken and do not want to lose it, or simply because they are fine as they are and do not want to change simply on a "whim" from Apple.
It is a policy that Apple has followed since its inception and that there is no alternative but to accept it or change the system. Something similar happens with Mac OS X users, although this time it does not force them to update to the latest operating system (OS X 10.9 Mavericks), but simply to the latest available version of the one they have installedEither OS X 10.7 (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion) or the aforementioned Mavericks. One option that Apple could offer to iOS users would be to launch a security update but one that does not force to upload to iOS 7, but allows anyone to follow iOS 6, but that is too much to ask, or so it seems.
