Find my Friends can no longer be installed after iOS8

I Have had Find my Friends on my iPhone with iOS 6 and then 7 and used to work fine, but since I upgraded to iOS8 I can no longer install the App, it will start to install and then delete itself from the home screen. It will have all the entries in the Settings menus until the iPhone is restarted, this is as if it's forbidden to be installed on my iPhone. It's iPhone 5 model ND662KH/A.
i tried different Apple IDs but no change on this phone. The same can be installed on my iPad and there it works properly, just why it will not install on my iPhone 5?!!

Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Sharing an Apple ID is never recommended for these reasons.
They can create their own: http://appleid.apple.com and you can add them at the addresses they use for their ID.
Sharing an Apple ID is not recommended because all of your data gets merged and when it gets deleted from one device, it deletes from them all, such as Contacts.

So, have you created an iCloud account and is your device connected to iCloud?

HT201412 My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work, As long as I have this situation I can do nothing on

My i Pad 3 shows "cannot Access Find My Friends open the app and review your sign in information to continue sharing your location. And I have two buttons : Later and Open but they don't work. As long as I have this screen situation, I cann't do anything on my I Pad. Please help !!

I have the same problem on my iPhone4. It is obviously a bug in the software. Once it pops out I am locked out of my phone. I can't even begin to describe the frustration this causes. All that stuff about holding down the buttons is useless. the phone won't even shut off. I can take a screen shot like that or go to voice control. Even when I got to a wifi connection, I can't get on. This app blocks everything else. This is a serious bug and can have serious consequences. The only thing my phone would do is go to voice control and let me play iTunes or phone people. Some smart phone hey?
I have finally got to a place with a wide enough wifi to connect my computer and restore the phone. This has lasted over a day!
I don't even know why Find My Friends is on my phone. Is it part of the package and how do I turn it off?

Perform a Reset...

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Find my Friends will not work on my iPhone 4S / iOS 8.2

Im having iPhone 4S on iOS 8.2 (12D508) (unfortunately).
When I want to open my Find my friends app, im getting the message "Sign into your iCloud And then Go to iCloud settings) but when I click that and actually go on iCloud settings I can pretty much see i am logged into my iCloud.
I can also see that in advanced settings, where Share my location option is on, im getting pop up alert saying "Share My Location Unavailable. Unable to connect to server. Please try again"
How to get my Find my Friends app working, for gods sake?!?

Start here: WiFi Greyed Out
If nothing in that knowledge base article helps your WiFi chip has probably failed.

I have the same apple id on three devices need my daughter to be separate on find my friends, but right now we have to pick which device is found, can I change this with a different id? We share an itunes.

I have my phone, ipad, and touch all on my itunes and same apple id. It is my daughter's touch and I want to have her on my "find my friends" but it is not allowing her device to be separate than mine. Do I get her a separate apple ID, and can that still put her stuff on "our" itunes?

You'll want a separate iCloud account for each user in addition to the main Apple ID used for purchases.
Let's say you have a family of four (husband, wife, and two children). Here is what you will need:
Main Apple ID for shared purchases in Tunes (everybody will be using this)
iCloud (Apple ID) account for husband
iCloud (Apple ID) account for wife
iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 1
iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 2
Yes, you can have both an Apple ID and iCloud account setup on the same device. On each iOS device, setup the main Apple ID account for the following services:
iCloud (Photo Stream and Backup are the only items selected here).
Music Home Sharing
Video Home Sharing
Photo Stream
Additionally, on each iOS device, add a new iCloud account (Under Mail, Contacts, Calendar) that is unique to each user for the following services:
Mail (if using @me.com)
Contacts
Calendars
Reminders
Bookmarks
Notes
Find My iPhone
Messages
Find Friends
FaceTime
On your individual Macs (or Mac accounts), use the main Apple ID in iTunes. Then, use the unique iCloud account in/for iCloud.
Now that everbody is using separate iCloud accounts for your contacts, calendars, and other things, it will be all be kept separate.
The only thing that is now 'shared' would be iTunes content (apps and other purchases), backups via iCloud (if enabled), and Photo Stream (if enabled).

How do I use Find My Friends App on the computer?

I have a windwos 7 and im trying to locate my brother's Ipad but I can't. Is there any way to look up my brothers Ipad from Icloud.com?

No you cannot use "Find My Friends" on the Mac or PC, because there is no App or Web App for that. If your brother lost his iPad and enabled Find My iPhone, then he could use his Apple ID/iCloud account to locate his device by using "Find My iPhone".

In iOS 8, how can I share my photo stream AND assign different names to each of our devices in Find My Friends?

I'm using the iPhone 5c, and iPad mini, and my wife has a 5c, too. We used to use my iCloud account as the main account on everything, so we could share our photos as we took them. But now in iOS 8, Find My Friends is moved to iCloud. I can't add my wife to Find My Friends, because it lists me on all of the devices. How can I go back to taking a photo and it showing up on her device while allowing us to find each other?

I chatted with Apple tech support. They said [add rolling eyes here] that this is easily solved with the new Family Sharing feature. In other words, I sign in on my phone, my wife signs in on hers, and we share our photos in the Family folder. Of course, no photos are automatically shared in the Family folder. It's just a shared folder, something anybody could have created in iOS 7. I would still have to drag all of my photos and my wife would have to drag all of her photos to the folder in order to share them. Also, I notice that app updates on her phone are strangely being downloaded under her account, so when we make a change, it says the downloaded app will have to be deleted, because it was not downloaded through my account. This Family Sharing thing is a joke. I told the tech support lady that this didn't feel like much of a "feature" at all. She suggested that I provide feedback if I didn't like it, which I did.
So there is no way to do what I'm wanting to do under iOS 8 at the moment. I love Apple products, but wow, iCloud is a disaster at the moment. Just look at all of the people who upgraded to iOS 8 and upgraded to iCloud Drive without understanding the implications. Now they're getting an error message that they need to download Yosemite in order to access their documents, even though Yosemite isn't available to the public yet. Not well planned. In the meantime, we just don't share our photos in exchange for finding each other for lunch.

HT201493 can 2 pepole use find my friends on 2 devices with the same apple id

My wife and I are connected to the same Apple ID we would like to use Find My Friends to follow each other but only one of use shows up on the map,

The app should locate both phones if they are using the same iCloud account and the app is signed into the account. If they are using different account, sign out, then sign back in with the other account to track the other phone.
If one of them isn't showing and you're signed into the correct iCloud account, go to Settings>iCloud on the phone in question and turn Find My iPhone Off, then back On.

I have iPhone and iPad with the same apple ID. How to share both my devices for Find My Friends ?

Hi -
I have an iPhone and an iPad using the same apple ID. I'm unable to share location from both the devices at the same time for "Find My Friends". I am only able to pick one device. Any help to share both the devices is greatly appreciated.

Find my friends is designed to locate DIFFERENT Apple ID's. So if you want to use FMF for this purpose, you would need to create a different apple ID for one of your devices.
OR, you could use the Find My iPhone App. Which will display ALL of your devices.

HT201493 How can I add my daughter to Find my friends when we have the same itunes account and that's how they make us log in?

How can I add my daughter to Find my friends when we have the same itunes account and that's how they make us log in?

1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Then on the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers
Contnue to use the commpn ID/account for Settings>iTunes and App stores.

Can you find your friends or find my friends on to locate someone if you share the same ITunes account?

Can you find your friends or find my friends on to locate someone if you share the same ITunes account?

Any iOS device that shares the same iTunes account and has Find my Phone enabled under Settings > iCloud can be located using the Find my iPhone app or www.icloud.com.

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified. Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!

Can't use Find My Friends on iPhone due to Apple ID not being verified.
Can't do this as I can't access my .mac email any longer and I can not change the primary e-mail address for my Apple ID!
So my options are:
Create a new Apple ID, use that and lose all the apps I've purhcased with it (a fairly substantial amount)
Somehow Migrate these purchases over to a new Apple ID
Apple let me change the primary ID for the account
Anyone else ran into this before?
I've tried accessing the mail through a mail application using the correct server information, and trying both the old 6 character password and the one I had to change it too after they updated the security guidelines - neither work.
Help would be greatly appreciated as I can see more services down the line not working without the address being verified!

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going 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 should not need to verify the old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, 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.
