I want to receive Facetime video calls on my MacBook Air and my iPhone at the same. They are on the same apple id and I have it set up on my phone to use multiple devices and I cannot get it to work.
Is this setup possible?

I'm not following why everyone else is saying this can't be done. I have people facetime me all the time on my phone, by using my AppleID email address. I also contact others this same way, and it works just fine. In fact it has the added bonus of ringing ALL iDevices linked to that address. So when someone facetimes my AppleID, it rings on my iPhone, Mac, and iPad all at the same time, allowing me to answer it wherever I am at that moment.
I didn't do anything special to set this up... just went into FaceTime under Settings, and added the email address(es) I wanted people to be able to reach me on. Works fine.
Maybe this is specifically a problem on the iPhone 4 as opposed to the 4s which is what I have?
You can add another email address for FaceTime in your iPad:
This will allow you to call your iPad uniquely with this id.
Similarly, you can add another email address to your MacBook Pro's Facetime:

FaceTime audio and video route to one device by design. You would need to add a second account on the second device to get two seats at a FaceTime meeting with your two devices.
