I've got OSX 10.8 running in VMware 12 and Player.  I'm running Player on an MS Surface Pro 3.  I can connect the MS LifeCam to the VM.  However, when I start Facetime in the Mac VM, it does not open.  The little "wheel" just spins, but the app never runs.  I'll be grateful for any suggestions.  Thanks!

I am also having problems with FaceTime in an El Capitan vm running in VMware Player 12. In my case, the app opens, but it doesn't accept my sign-in; the same sign-in as other OS X apps like Reminders and Notes, which work fine.

You have to spoof real mac setting to get FaceTime and iMessage to work, see link below:
