Find My Friends - Server Error when logging in

I have been using Find My Friends on my iPad4 and iPhone5 for about a month but now I am getting either an error suggesting my Apple ID password is wrong, which it isn't or I wouldn't get to post on here - plus I have checked via appleid web portal.
Currently it says "Find My Friends Alert - Find My Friends is unavailable due to a server error."
However, my friends are logged into their iPads and iPhones using the service without a problem.
Any ideas?

Solving Find my Friends Alert "Find my Friends is unavailable due to a server error, is actually caused by how you have logged onto Apple - I have found.
This seems to be a common thread that stems from before Apple introduced email. At that time I first created an Apple identity for the 3GS, it was using the email address I already had. On subsequent iPhone hardware and software upgrades that introduced Apple based email, like @me.com and latterly iCloud, logging onto an updated software version you are invited to use the Apple based identities which you invariably do. This can be a mistake as original Apps are linked to the core identity based on the original one that first set up, and unless this is used then some Apps like Find Friends give misleading error messages like Cannot find Server, or Server error, when the problem is how you have logged on.
Merging those multiple identities would be a solution, but one that I haven't yet found.

  • Find my friends server error

    Hello,
    I have a Iphone 5 32gb with IOS 8 that is why i am here. Also i have a Ipad 2 32gb, iMac 21 last 2012 and a Macbook pro 13 mid 2013, so i use iCloud and all the service a lot.
    I have to apple id, i created the first one in 2009, and later i buy some services of me.com, so i create a me.com account too.
    I upgrded to IOS 8 yesterday, all is right, but when i was to configure find my friend, i saw that you only can login with the iCloud account and no other account like before. I try to migrate from the other to the iCloud account, but say that i did't have any friend in the other account (that is not true, i had my brother). So i was to add my brother to the iCloud account and it is imposible and also if my brother want to add me i can't accept the request. The app send me a menage that say " Find my friends alert, Find my friends not available due to a server error" I try to unistal the app and reinstall it, and the error persists. But here is the rare thing, when i request by imenssage that I want to see his position it is all right, but when he request to me and i accept, this don't work.
    Can any help me to understand what is happening?
    and when can we merge two apple id account? this would solve a lot of problem!!!
    Than for all!!!

    I have a solution for the problem. Yes it is because we have our main email without verification. I went to apple support, i clicked in iCloud, then go to contact with technical support. There you go to Introduction,  then go to account and configuration, then go to iCloud account solution problems and contact by phone to apple care. there you say your problem with the main email verification. They ask you to change the email, they send you a change pass email, you change he it and you got the email verification. And now you can use find my friend with no problems. PROBLEM SOLVE!

  • HT204407 Find my friends server error

    When trying to add one of me friends it came up with server error !! Any help

    I ended up being able to solve it. It turned out the e-mail address associated with the account was not set up correctly.
    I found out by accident when I tried to get Find My Friends to work on an older device with iOS 6. When I installed Find My Friends on that device, the App Store said the latest version required iOS 7 but I could load the previous version of Find My Friends.
    This older version turned out to be much more helpful: instead of the server error, it told me exactly what the problem was. I just selected the correct e-mail address (which was the only one in the list, but not actually active) and everything worked correctly from then on.

    Hi Subhadeep!
    Think I'm getting closer (Lol). I did as you suggested and changed the web url to http://localhost:8888/Documents/projects/whoknew/. As you suggested I moved the local site to the Documents folder under the sub-folder projects. It is connecting to the server, but now I am getting the requested url cannot be found on the server. Below are screenshots of my current settings.

    Hi,

    did you put the user/pass details in SOAP UI while executing the call?
    you can do in the the SOAP UI attributes on the left and down corner
    you need to put user and pass otherwise XI will not accept the call

    Hi Easwar ,
    Though I am not connected to this error, but interested in the last parameter of xcm.scenario on this URL
    http://hostname:50000/xxxb2b/b2b+/init.do?xcm.scenario=JCO_NCACLNT708+*
    Is it possible to pass dynamic JCO client name to the xcm.scenario parameter through a SAP portal entry?
    And if so, what exactly is required to do this ? I saw a SAP note(SAP Note 1021959 - Portal settings for ISA iViews)
    to set parameters and values like xcm.scenario, portal, callbackurl etc in the Portal System Landscape Directory to Key  called ISA_B2B = "/init.do?scenario.xcm=<YOUR_XCM_SCENARIO>&portal=yes&autoentry=yes&shop=<YOUR_SHOP>&
    callbackurl=<THE_CALLBACKURL_BELOW>"
    I have a Portal WDP appln that maintains the values of <YOUR_XCM_SCENARIO> and <YOUR_SHOP>, the challenge is to pass these 2 values to the Portal System Landscape Directory Key( ISA_B2B).  I am understanding there could be a .par application that will need to be integrated with the WDP application to update the Key attribute when a user performs some action/event on the WDP Screen ?
    Your thoughts and direction will  of be big help and much appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Portal Developer(Newbie)

  • 500 internal server error when trying to create users

    I am getting a 500 internal server error when trying to create users. What is the cause? We tried reinstalling the latest java jdk release and that didn't help.

    Check whether your DBControl or ASControl service is still running or crashed. EM is not able to connect to the Management Server.
    For instance in Windows, you may see that the Servise is not started. Then check for error logs in $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/logs for any related error messages in the log files

  • I get an access denied error when logging into extension builder 2.1 on Flash Builder 4.6

    I get an access denied error when logging into extension builder. The error is: You are not eligible to use CSIDE1 services due to the Service Eligibility Requirements.. Very frustrating since there is no other option than to read the adobe legal docs.
    Before this started happening I was prompted to put in my birthday (WHO KNOWS WHY ADOBE NEEDS MY BIRTHDAY). I filled it in wrong and now this....
    PLEASE HELP

    Ok this problem is fixed.
    Info for anyone else who faces this problem.
    Apparently when adobe designed the extension builder installer package, they decided to get cute and try to figure out what version of the software, the extension builder package files should be installed into. So if you have FB4, FB4.6, and FB.7 there is no telling where it will go. Also if you try moving these folders somewhere else out of the applications directory, the installer will still find them on the system. I finally figured this out by watching my system log and seeing
    11/22/13 12:13:46.258 AM cp[70909]: Cannot make directory /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app
          Location: /Users/myuser/Downloads/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6-adobegarbage/plugins/com.adobe.cside.ui_2.1.0.201304282312/icons: No such file or directory
    After removing every single instance of places the package installer was trying to use. It finally resolved to the correct FB4.6 location. Why adobe could'nt spend a little extra time add a destination selector in the package installer is beyond me, but hey i only wasted 3 days trying to figure this out.... Sadly it isnt the first time i've wasted copius amounts of time fighting Flashbuilder problems.
    Halligrimur, thank you for your help. It did lead to me solving the problem.
