Family share invitations not being received

I have set up family share via IOS 8 for my wife, and the invitation shows as being sent on my phone, but has not been received by my wife's email account. I have removed her invite and re established it several times with the same result. Anyone understand why?

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. In particular, if the family members are present, you can actually add them directly on your device by having them enter their Apple ID:

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...

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.

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,
Jeremy

Group addressed e-mails not being received

My new iPad seems to be receiving e-mails that are specifically addressed to me just fine. But, I have noticed that e-mails addressed to a group of recipients (including me) are not being received on my iPad while my computer does. For example, my employer will send out an e-mail to all of the employees (as a group). I can view the e-mail on my computer but the iPad doesn't receive it. And, I'm using the same e-mail account on both. Why?

OK, I've worked out how to set up a sub - account.
BUT
Concerned that if I set one up it will impact on my current BT Yahoo account, ie could e mails be diverted or will the sub account only be used to persons I share it with? The BTYahoo sub-account is a stand alone account and will only get emails that are addressed to it. If you want emails from it to go to your main account you would need to set up a forwarding rule.
Also if/when I get replies will I see them on my normal BTYahoo e mail "In Box" page or on a different page? No. You would only see them in your "normal" email inbox if you do as I suggest above and have them forwarded to your "normal" BTYahoo email. If you don't do that the sub-account email behaves in the same manner as any other email account and you would need to log onto it to see the emails.
Also
Do you think it will solve the question posed above? You would need to establish what the problem is in the first place such as are the notifications being blocked by your spam filter, are they being sent etc because the same thing could happen if you have them sent to your new sub-account email.

Email notifications not being received

Email notifications are not being received every time a customers submits data. We stopped receiving notifications after the email came about shutting down the service. We have a half dozen forms live on the web and none of them are sending out notifications. One example is located at Online Complaint | ORCAA. Nothing has changed from the backend and both email addresses that should receive notifications are verified.
I submitted data to the form and received a notification, but not the 2 email addresses that are listed on the FormsCentral backend. The Adobe domain is whitelisted with GApps.
Thoughts?

I've tested your form a bit and it seems that email receipts are working. For me to test email notifications I would need to be a co-author. If you can add me to one of the problem forms I will investigate further and let you know what I find.

I'm being asked to enter my ID password on my ipad for icloud, but the email is no longer active and reset remails are not being received.

I'm being asked to enter my ID pswd on my ipad 2 for icloud. but the email address and ID are no longer being used, and reset emails are not being received. How can I deactivate this? I have another ID which works fine, but this issue with the old ID is not allowing me to use my ipad. thanks.

If your iPad is signed into an old ID and you are trying to change it, if the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Sharing photos by email - Emails are not being received

My photos which I have shared by email are not being received, even though I have a confirmation that they have been sent (one photo has been sent).
I am using a @me.com email address and I have tried to send a photo to myself and this has still not been come through.

Do you have iPhoto setup to email the photos itself or use Mail to email the photos?

Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4.

Yahoo e-mails are not being received on iphone 4. I had to go website to retrieve about 50 emails from last couple of days. Everything looks correct in settings and I haven't changed anything that I know of. Please help if you've encountered this issue.

I tried the suggestion of deleting the account and starting over from scratch (twice), to no avail.

Samsung note II, known issue of aol mail not being received on phone

I spent hours on the phone with Customer Service this past Wednesday & Thursday because my aol mail is not being received on my new phone. I just did some research online, and found out this has been an issue with AOL and Verizon since December 2012. The Customer Service rep told me this just happened the past week! What a bold faced lie!
I purchased this phone on or about July 3, and the AOL mail was working fine until this past Wednesday.
This is a know issue, and yet the lie right to your face about it.
I had a C/S rep tell me he would call me back later in the day, before he left work. I told him, I have heard that before. Oh, no, I will call you. Of course he didn't call. Your C/S reps think they can say whatever they want, but the calls have been monitored or tracked someway by your computer system.
I see many others have the same problem with the Samsung Note II and their email accounts.
Since December this has been going on, don't you think it's time you fixed the problem?
Two years ago, when I spent $200 on a phone, I said never again. But yet I wanted a 5.5" screen so I paid up! Never again!

I FINALLY spoke to someone today who was able to solve my problem so far.
In the PLAY STORE....look for K9 email app.....and download that...put in your AOL email address and password. You should now be able to receive your aol email on your phone.
It seems he has a Note II also, and had the same problem.
You would think that MANAGEMENT would tell all their C/S reps how to solve the problem. I guess they would rather lose a customer who has been with them for 10 yrs.

Sent mail is not being received

Some of my emails use my me.com account are not being received by the recipient.
The emails show being SENT in my SENT box.

I have a similar but perhaps unrelated problem. Every now and then, I send an email on my gmail account using Mail. The sent mail appears in my sent box, but never arrives, and does not appear in my webmail sent box (where it usually does, using gmail). Most of the time it works, and it even works most of the time with people it has had a problem with, including mail I send to myself at work at my professional address. Usually arrives...but not always. I don't know how to trust my sent mail box without always going on the webmail to make sure it actually went out. I only have this problem when using the Mail application, but there are no other common characteristics (attachements, ISPs, etc) to say there could be a problem with one of those things. Anyone else have this problem?
