Family share can't open notifications on any machine

My son is sending over family share ask to buy requests and I am unable to open them on any of my devices. Have tried on my iPhone 6, my macbook air and my macbook pro.
What gives?? Frustrated mom and frustrated kiddo here.

I have this issue too, when I first set it all up it was working fine but now only initial app purchase requests are coming through, in-app purchases have this problem now. The text in the menubar of my iPhone/iPad turns black and the screen is unresponsive. It acts as though it's loading the form but never actually does. I have to press the home button to kill non-existent form.
It also amazes me that Apple didn't include this into one of their Apps, or create a new one. I would have made it badge the Settings app like when there are software updates, then when you open Settings there is a number next to the iCloud section, that leads you to the purchase request. Putting it in Notification center is fine but honestly, who really uses that thing? It was the last place I looked for the "missing" requests and tapping them still did nothing.
I've always loved Apple but as of late they've turned into a "New Features!" shop and not a "Fix bugs, release quality" shop. It's sad really...

  • The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin, how can I eliminate this problem without dropping m. firefox?

    A few days ago I tried to e-mail a friend, when I started A box came up and it required me to add a plugin..Java. I contacted my e-mail courier and microsoft, they told me that is was a plugin from Mozilla Firefox. Since then I must go through Java to send or open an e-mail... this is NOT to my satisfaction, it takes too long for all of this to open and if it is not cleared , I am dropping Mozilla and going elsewhere. Why has this occurred? Is this a result of the last update? If so can I delete the last update and continue on the other version?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == last week

    Sorry, I have no idea what you mean by '''"The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin,"'''.
    If you think your problem is caused by the Java plugin, you should visit the Java support forum for assistance.
    http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
    If you could explain what you mean by '''"time unfriendly''' issue with my e-mail account", maybe we'll be able to help you solve that issue.
    It might be helpful for us if we knew exactly which web-mail provider you are using. It seems strange to me that viewing or sending web-mail would actually "need" Java for operation, its more likely that some other item on the web page needs Java to run some advertising or other garbage that isn't a necessary part of the web-mail functionality you want to use.

  • I am trying to scan document that I will then attach in an email.  When I attach it it shows up as a picture within the email instead of an attachment an people can't open it.  Any help here?

    I am trying to scan document that I will then attach in an email.  When I attach it it shows up as a picture within the email instead of an attachment an people can't open it.  Any help here?

    What kind of Mac are you using, and what version of the operating system?
    You should be able to select the document that you want to attach and then use the contextual menu (right click in some worlds) to compress the document, producing a .zip file. You can then attach that to the email and it won't appear as a picture within the email.
    If I recall this correctly, the "compress" part in the contextual menu may have a different terminology.

    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks a lot!

    Thank you Srikishan, I reviewed the link you provided, it solves uninstall and re-install problem for one laptop, however, we have many laptops, can't do manual registry clean up for all of them. The installation was done by mobile client silent script, needs to be successful the very first time.
    This error only happens with the very 1st installation, means fresh OS that never had any SAP, I am wondering what is the installation program trying to change in the registry, does it have to go that deep into registry? and what other components are affected by the error "Can't open registry key "HKEY_LOCAL-MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP\SAP DBTECH"?
    From the log, the command ran before the error was "CALL: SDBINST -b -t sapmc -f C:\Program Files\SAP Netweaver Mobile Client\MaxDB Files\sdb_MIDB_sample.cfg", is it a sample program and do we need it? is this caused the error?
    for remaining errors(many of them), there is one very odd
    "SYS: "c:\sdb\programs\runtime\7300\bin\irconf.exe" -i -p "c:\sdb\programs\runtime\7300": Error : Cannot find any installed version of CPC Driver.."
    What caused it?
    Thanks,
    Grace

  • Time machine is not working. I get a message: You can't open the application "Time Machine" because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    Time machine is not working under "Applications". I get this message: You can’t open the application “Time Machine” because it may be damaged or incomplete. What do I do?
    Time machine under system preferences lets me setup time capsule. But backup fails because "Volume is in use" Help please!

    It does sound like you have a corrupted install.
    The volume in use error is something we see all the time.
    Look at C12 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    But I suspect you have more serious issue.
    I would run a disk verify on your local OS disk. A5 in the above reference has some info.

    Call Apple and make a appointment.
    You have 3 months of care and up to 3 years with paid AppleCare, let them handle it and bring everything in.

  • I can't open Appleworks (or any appleworks documents)

    I don't know what happened, but suddenly I can't open Appleworks. It disappeared from my dock. I made a new alias to put there. If I click on an Appleworks document the Alias icon bounces up and down once, and nothing else happens. Same if I click on the alias icon in the dock. If I click on Appleworks in the Applications menu nothing happens. If I highlight a file and try to open it under "Open With" under the File menu in Finder nothing happens. Any help anyone can provide would be appreciated, as I have a lot of important information stored in those documents. Thanks!

    I had a similar problem & did what you said & AppleWorks opened from the desktop. What do I do with the folders on the desktop?
    If you really applied what I described:
    +Drag the folder:+
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:AppleWorks:
    +and the file:+
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.appleworks.pli st
    +on the Desktop.+
    and if in this case AppleWorks.6 behaves correctly, you may trash the items which I asked you to move on the desktop.
    Often, it's a good idea to open the
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:AppleWorks:
    folder which you moved on the desktop ,
    grab the "AppleWorks 6 Button Bars" file and move it in the newly created
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:AppleWorks: folder.
    Doing that you will recover your set of custom buttons; Of course if you didn't created custom buttons this task is unneeded.

  • Can't open iwork or any documents

    Can't open Keynote, Pages or Numbers...or any of my documents...they now say they are in the incorrect format, says the file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format. Help??!

    Hi Jo,
    Do you have at least 15% free space on your HD?
    Run Repair Disk: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart >immediately hold down c key and keep holding it until you see “PreparingInstallation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue >click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > open Disk Utility > selectyour HD in the panel on the left side> click Repair Disk at bottom of mainwindow. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok”twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility such asDiskWarrior or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need toreinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD (repair utilities can onlyrepair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quitDisk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go toApplications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.
