Family share invitation with no accept or decline buttons

I have sent a family share invitation to my husband and the invitation he received has no accept or decline button. Why?

Usually, that would mean that he is not running ios 8 or already belongs to other family.

  • I can't accept my family share invitation

    When I open my family share invitation it tells me to click on view now to accept the invite. I do this and am redirected to a page that gives me the same instructions. How do I accept the invite?

    I do not believe you can on ipod touch that you use, since it is not compatible with ios 8.

    Lori --
    What can I say, but thank you, thank you and thank you!
    Your timely response saved the day -- it was a little hairy there for a while, with .jpg files all over the desktop, but after resorting to pen and paper (still necessary at times) and recording the numbers of all files, I am now good to go.
    The little green star and the bogue award of 10 points doesn't begin to convey how helpful your post, but it's all we're given (plus these words, of course).
    To briefly sum up -- This morning (after the debacle last evening that started all this) I was trying to reconcile myself to the fact that my photos were lost for good and that I had only myself to blame.
    Now, I have all my photos back (more than 200 hundred, some of them really kind of cool, if I do say so myself) and all are now sitting nicely in iPhoto waiting to be manipulated, edited and otherwise toyed with.
    All thanks to you, Lori.
    Not that I wish the heartache I just went through over the last 24 hours on anyone, but I do hope that I get the chance to help someone out as much as I was helped out today. Good Karma and all that.
    This site flat out rules!
    Thanks again.

  • Family share invites not being sent

    Hello,
    I have two family members that do not receive their iCloud family share invites.  All are running the current version of IOS. My Mac has the latest OS, I have tried everything.. Does anyone have a suggestion?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Jkirk11,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with Family Sharing. If you are having issues adding family members to your Family Sharing group because they don't appear to be receiving the invites, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article helpful.

  • Family Share invitations it takes me to the iCloud sign in page, not the invitations tab.

    When clicking the Family Share invitations it takes me to the iCloud sign in page.  How can I get to the iCloud>Invitations area?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • Way to start family share plan with 4 lines

    Im extrememly new to this & right now I would like to start a family share plan with 4 lines. Will I be able to get 4 smartphones at a discounted price? I heard that you if you want 3 lines there has to be 1 basic phone along with 2 smartphones & 2 basic 2 smart for a plan of 4. I need a little confromation since it was really hard looking for info on my exact wants online. Also right now I'm already on a grandfathered family plan with a friend but I don't mind paying the ETF since the line was suspended last month & my friend won't be able to pay the bill pillage until next month(I have paid my portion of the bill for this month also even though it wasn't enough to reconnect the lines) & I can't deal with not having a phone any longer! Yes my phone is a necessity since I don't have a home phone. Will I be able to keep my number? Sorry if this post is all over the place.

    I'm not sure where you heard about a basic phone requirement because that is false.
    If you are a new customer then yeah you get the phones at a discount. You would be a new customer if you were under someone else's plan I assume. Whose name was the account under?
    4 smartphones would be $160 in "line access" charges monthly. Then you have to chose how much data you will need.

  • How to set up myself as family share organizer with my own Apple id when someone else has gotten a new phone and used my Apple ID on it and set up family share for themselves?

    its my Apple ID and it's basically been hijacked on a device I dont own and someone else has been set up as family share organizer in my own Apple ID and I can't seem to do anything about it.

    You really need to get the apple id straightened out before you start, or you will pay the price forever!   You have a couple of options.  I assume your dad is cooperating with this project.  I think you are probably right about using his apple account.
    Make sure you have established the second e mail address and that to works.
    Log onto apple.com, and in the upper right, log into the account.  Once in the accout, click on the area where you can change you data, and add the second email address.    Apple wil verify the adress by send it an e mail, and won't do anything further until you respond to an e mail sent to that address, so watch for it.
    After the address is verified, on your accout page, make that address your primary address contact from apple.  That way if apple sends confirmations for apps and things, they will go to the new address, and your mom won't see them.  Then set the pad up using the same aple Id as your dad.  Remember, you have not changed the apple id or the password, you have only changed the e mail address for contact.   ( you can change it back after the surprise)
    The other suggestion...  I have given a coule of pads to folks, and one of the real fun parts for them and for you is o
    Ending the box, and doing the set up.  It is a great way for them to learn enough to use it.  Press the buttons etc.  pick their own apps.  You can gift her all the apps you want, and she can learn how to download them herself.
    I gave a pad to mom in law, and did pretty much what you are planning, and at the end of the day, having it all set when she openied it made it harder for her to learn, rather than easier.
    But you are doing a god thing, and I am sure she will enjoy the pad.

  • Family share plan with different contract dates

    We currently have a Family Share Plan where my two daughters were added at different times, so we have 3 contract end dates within the same year.  Is there any way to get these dates in synch without any penalties or changes to the plan we've been grandfathered with?  It seems that any changes would penalize our family.  Any ideas?

    My daughters are in college now and, hopefully, one of these days they'll be ready to take on their own bills and make their own choices.  Let's say they choose to go with another company and we agree I carry them until their contract end dates.  Wouldn't that break *my* contract under the family plan, automatically switch me to another plan and penalize me? 
    As for the same-day renewal, are you saying if my contract date is tomorrow and theirs are later this year, I can renew them so that we all expire in January 2015?
    Your contract would not be broken by dropping lines. You'll remain on the same contract plan until the owner of the account(you, I assume) chooses to change plan. You can even go back to a single line "Nationwide plan" assuming you're on the Nationwide plan now.
    As far as contracts you'll have to wait until they all reach the 20 months and then "upgrade" them all at the same time.
    FYI,  If any line has an unlimited data plan, you lose the unlimited data for that line if you upgrade at a discounted(phone) price.

  • Family Share - does not give me the option to accept

    I have created family share on my ipad and emailed an invite to my 9 year old son. He does not have an apple account because he is too young. I want him to accept the family share invite but he can not unless I log in with my apple account. If I do this it says I am the organiser!!  Now my sons ipad thinks he is me and when he adds games to his they appear on mine!! 
    Please help!!  What do I do ?

    Hello Caroline, 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like you're setting up Family Sharing so your son can download items from the App Store. 
    Since your son is 9 years old, you need to create an Apple ID for him using the steps in this article:
    Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support
    You will be able to add this new Apple ID to the iPad your son uses. 
    All the best,

  • Approve purchases- family share with android phone

    Our kids have iPods and we have iPads as well.  Our mobile phones are Android based.  I set upfamily sharebut would like to have the ability to approve or decline purchase requests using my android phone.  I know that there isiCloud for Windows but haven't seen anything for Android.  Does anyone know of a way to approve or deny purchases using an Android phone?  Thanks for any help!

    According to this site (http://www.bgr.com/2010/11/06/verizon-wireless-testing-sprint-like-70-450-minute-unlimited-plan/), Verizon is coming out with a Family Share Plan with unlimited data & text and 1400 minutes of shared talk time for $139.99 a month.
    This is $10 a month higher then Sprint and has 100 fewer shared minutes. It also includes GPS Navigation, Sprint TV and Radio, and NASCAR Sprint Cup Mobile which isn't available with Version. I think Verzon has a navigation and video service but they charge for it.

  • Why does my music not show up for my wife with family share?

    With all new devices (MBP retina using Yosemite/iPhone 6’s iOS8.1):
    I’ve create my family share list with my wife.  None of my music shows on her phone, iPad, or computer.  Under Family Share on the Apple site, it suggests the ability to share and download what you like.  Not sure what is going on.  Any ideas?
