Family sharing - one member get's message no valid payment method

Hi there,
I have family sharing enabled for my wife and two daughters. The latter can download stuff the app store and update apps. My wife however get's a message that there is no valid payment method attached to the family. But the three other members can download new stuff and update existing apps easily.
It gets weirder when my wife leaves the family sharing cause she keeps getting the same message.
iPhone 6, iPhone 5 and 5s working great. My wife has a 4s.
Any clues how to solve this?
Tnx a lot, Paul.

Hi Nancy,
I also found Note 445233 - FPY1: Separate exception indicator for 'amount check'
"FPY1
During the payment method check the system states that a payment method is not qualified, because the company code-specific amount limits (minimum amount and maximum amount per payment method and company code) prevent this (fields TFK042E-VONBT and TFK042E-BISBT).
The result is the general exception indicator
'006' No valid payment method found."
Hope this helps

Family sharing says I do not have a valid payment method

I'm Trying to set up family sharing and it says "your family must have a valid payment option". Yet the credit card is valid and is used to make iTunes purchases all the time. Help!

I Got it to work!! I just went into settings and put in my credit card info again.

I am part of a family sharing setup. Can I have my own payment method so the organizer does not get charged for my purchases?

Yes. Just redeem gift cards so that your own account always has a sufficient credit balance. Here is how it works:
Family purchases and payments
After you set up your family, any time a family member initiates a new purchase it will be billed directly to your account unless that family member has gift or store credit. First, their store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer's card.

I already have a valid payment method for my iTunes account, but can't get past the Family Sharing setup prompt telling me to add a payment method . What to do?

I had the same problem and found a bunch of others did, too. Unfortunately all the posts had no responses! Anyway, I previously had my payment method linked to my paypal. I tried changing it to my credit card and it worked. Don't know if there's a bug with using paypal but that seemed to be the culprit for me. Good luck!

Hi why do i getting the message like "Your payment method was declined"

hi why do i get the message like "Your payment method was declined"

What are you trying to use as your payment method, credit card, debit card ... ? If it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method in all countries - from this page :
You may be able to use other payment types in your country, like debit and Maestro cards.
which implies that they are not accepted in all countries, and there have been a number of posts about them being declined.
For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use a debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

I am trying to manage family sharing and I get a warning "invalid apple ID" that accounts can participate in one Family at a time. How can I add my daughter when I can't even access my account?

Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account.

I have 2 ipad 2s. On the newer one I can log in and update to IOS 5 with no problem. On the older one I get the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled." Why does it work on one ipad and not on the other?

I have 2 ipad 2s. On the newer one I could log in and update to IOS 5 withno problem. On the older one I get the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled." No other explanation. Why can I log in on one ipad and I'm disabled on the other?

Well, I spoke too soon. Yes, I'm using the same account on both iPads, but I just changed my password for the umpteenth time and now I get the disabled message on both iPads. Just yesterday I was able to upgrade one to IOS 5 but got the error message on the other. I'm getting more confused by the minute.

To download shared content, your family must have a valid payment method

I'm trying to share movies bought on my account with my son and keep receiving the message "to download shared content, your family must have a valid payment method". I already have a credit card linked to my account. Help?

Hi Mel3b,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with Family Sharing. If you are getting the "valid payment" alert message when you alreadyt have a credit card on file, you may want to try re-entering the card details on the account, even if you know they are currently correct.

Paypal not a valid payment method for family sharing

I have had paypal configured on my account for years. But now, for some reason while trying to set up Family Sharing on my iPad, it thinks Paypal is not a valid payment method. Should I be trying to set up Family Sharing from iTunes instead of my iPad?

I've read from others that at the preset time you have to use a credit card rather than a debit card. If you're using a debit card you might try entering a credit card instead, at least until the debit card option is restored.

But for another vendor its posting clearing this error occur only for particular vendor. Any can help me to rectify my error.

Hello,
We were get the same error message and found that the solution was that the vendor must have an address.
In OBVU, Payment method / country, the required master record specs had Street checked on. This reqiured an address for the vendor. Once we entered an address the F110 payment run was successful for this vendor.

Is this a pre-paid card thing? Or different billing address than your iTS account?
