How do I add my child's birthday to their AppleID?

I have had email addresses and appleIDs for my kids since MobileMe. Now, when I try to add them to my familyshare account, the system won't let me do it without adding a birthday. Their birthday's are set to mm-day-0000. There is no birthdate associated with the account. Why can I not change it? We have had these accounts for years and they are using them for FaceTime etc. Thanks for your help.

Hmm i guess it is something special because you created these accounts under MobileMe instead of iCloud... I'm not very sure about this topic, I would contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/) or wait until one of the forum cracks can help you;)

  • How do I add my child's phone to my device list on FIND MY IPHONE  app on my phone?

    How do I add a device?

    Hi Bucknamc,
    I would recommend doing one of two things:
    1) As Gail suggested, go to Settings > iCloud > Find my iPhone, and turn it on. If you are going to do this, you should also go to Settings > General > Restrictions on your child's phone, and select "Don't allow changes to accounts." This will ensure your child does not enable other iCloud functions, which would cause your data to appear on each other's devices.
    2) This is a better solution, in my opinion, since it does not involve sharing an Apple ID. If your child has their own Apple ID (you can create one at http://appleid.apple.com), you can download the Find my Friends app and add them on there. There is also a setting in the Restrictions menu to prevent Find my Friends from being turned off. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8

  • There is no place in add a field in contacts to add another person.how can I add another child?

    I'm trying to add another child to my contact info and can't find the place to do it. Went to add field but there wasn't any choice for adding another person.  This is my first Apple product and I must say I'm not very impressed.

    Hey Memeyork,
    Within the Contacts app, you would want to press the + sign at the top right to add a new contact. Here are some other ways you can add contacts to your iPhone:

  • How do you add a person's title to their contact?

    Searched and Searched,  could not find any answer.
    Thank you,

    Look in Contacts > Preferences > Template tab > Add Field > Check Title.
    Then when you edit the card the Title field should be available.

  • How do you add people's pictures with contact info?

    How do I add photos of my friends with their contact info?

    See this...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302493
    I would imagine that they just have to be in the program you are syncing from. If you are on Windows XP, the pics would have to be in Microsoft Outlook.
    You would add it here in outlook...
    If you are adding contacts manually (by dragging the vCard files to the iPod) then you cannot have pictures displayed.

  • HT1688 How do you add to the birthday calendar when info is not included in Contact info, i.e. child's birthday?

    I'm trying add birthday info that I maintained on my former cell phone which had an option for addition of independent birthdays.  From what I've read in the IPhone 4 Manual, this type of info is only added when part of a Contact's info (Address Book Info).  So what about independent birthdays, like a child or children of a Contact?  I don't want to add each child as a separate Contact as this would be a waste of space.  Other than creating an event in the main calendar, is there a method to add these birthdays with the birthday icon & preferred Alert notifications?

    I've run into this problem before when using a VI that's in the Advanced Analysis library. Building the DLL resulted in "lvanlys.dll" being copied into the "data" directory of the place where I created the DLL. When distributing the LabVIEW DLL I had created to the target platform I had to also distribute the "lvanlys" DLL. In my case there was no license issue since there was a license for the target machine but it only had the run-time engine installed. I don't know why the "lvanlys" DLL wasn't in the run-time engine install. All I know was that I had to include the "lvanlys" DLL to tag along when I distributed my LabVIEW DLL. I suspect a similar situation is occurring with you and you need to provide these "auxiliary" DLLs if they're not in the run-time install directory of the target machine. You will need to check about any licensing issues though!

  • How do I add a birthday filed to my contacts? I have OSC Mountain  Lion on MacBook Air.

    My contacts folder does not have a birthday field. How do I add one so I can transfer the birthdays to my calendar? Thanks.

    Not sure if it was the same in Mountain Lion, but in Mavericks click the "+" sign at lower left of a contact and a menu to add fields appears. One of the fields available to add is Birthday.

  • How do I add multiple birthdays to address book cards?

    I am trying to figure out how to add multiple birthday's to cards in my address book.  Example I have Jennie & John Smith & their daughters Sue & Susie.  How do I add a birthday for each one?  There does not seem to be a way to add more then 1 birthday but I can add as many URL's, e-mails, phones, address etc. as I want?

    Hi RSER,
    Apologies in advance for quantity of detail following..
    Currently there appears to be no way to add an additional birthday. (Haven't explored command line options)
    There are shareware options that will allow you to utilise the 'anniversaries' field to make additional birthdays and add them to iCal.
    Personally, when I want that level of individual detail for a person I make a sep. card and add a note or 'related person' item.
    I can only assume that the decision was made by Apple that we can have (and do) any number of phones and emails etc, but usually have only one birthday (some lucky people ie Queen Elizabeth have an official public holiday 'birthday' in some Commonwealth countries, so they get more gifts... but then have your issue)
    With iCal you are potentially stepping into a minefield (so many things could be improved)
    But consider that Apple have a key philosophy of simple.
    There is enough for everyday use, but not so much it is overwhelming to the new user
    If you want advanced functionality/technical capabilities, buy a 3rd party product
    Certainly there are additions I would like to see:
    The 'related names' field would be very useful if it were threaded within the address book to link/refer to other contacts, not just a static field.
    Threading within contacts would also be convenient for adding names/addresses to an appointment in iCal (but not have to send requests etc)
    Making a contact a 'Business', should allow multiple 'people', or as above, tie in multiple contacts
    Maybe something for v6...
    Maybe I should buy another app too
    Hope that at least eases the pain.

  • How do I add a birthday to my calendar without it being an event ?

    How do I add a birthday to my calendar without it being an event ?

    Add them as a Contact.  They don't have to have a phone number.  Just create a Contact with their name and relevant information.
    Your Contacts app is used for more than just phone numbers.  Email addresses, physical addresses, date of birth, etc.  Use the 'Add Field' option to see all the possibilities.

  • I got birthdays in my ical on mac and iPhone 4 but how can i add anniversaries

    I got a mac pro and have updated to mountain lion, i use the mac cal to synchronize to mac cal on iphone 4s and vise versa, I got birthdays on my cal but would like to add anniversaries to it as well how do i add them so i dont forget important dates and also in my icloud i have 3 colours for different entries e.g. green for holiday , blue for home and green for work, so how do i add another colour for something else for a different entries called "events" and add anniversaries like birthdays. Ta Juss p.s i also have a problem with birthdays they all duplicated.....

    Go to "File" and create a new calendar, name it "Events" or whatever you like and pick a color.  Then, go to the date you want the anniversary on and create an all-day event naming it however you like.  Under repeat, choose to have it repeat every year and select never for when it should end.  You will now have a calendar of anniversaries and other events.  Just make sure to select repeat every year and never end on each item you want in that calendar.

    Hi,
           As far as I know this is not possible with OOTB Dialoge in the current version. However there are 3rd party tools like TK Dialogs which provide this feature. Here is the link for the tool and few comparison as to when
    to use OOTB v/s TK Dialog.

  • How can I add the Happy Birthday widget to my mac?

    How can I add the "Happy Birthday" widget to my dashboard?

    Open a Finder window and click on the Macintosh HD on the left under Devices. One of the folders showing will be the applications folder; drag it onto the dock to the right of the System Preferences icon (individual apps can go to the left, but folders need to be to the right).
    Hope that helps.
    P.S. Don't forget to update your equipment settings/signature.

  • How do I add Holidays to my Calendar Server?

    How do I add Holidays to my Calendar Server?
    <p>
    Adding Holidays to your Calendar Server is done via the Netscape
    Calendar Client by going to the Edit|Holidays pull-down menu.
    This option can only be accessed by those users who have been given
    the admin rights to add holidays.
    If you wanted to give "John Smith" admin rights to add holidays on
    a Calendar Server with a node id of 10000, you would do the
    following:
    o Login as 'root' or 'unison' to your Calendar Server.
    o Change directories to /users/unison/bin.
    o Run the command:
    uniadmrights -e "S=Smith/G=Bob" -hday -n 10000
    Now the user John Smith can add/delete/modify holidays on the
    Calendar Server.

    Include birthday in your contacts using the Contacts app.  Then in Calendar go to the list of calendars (touch the red Calendars at the mid bottom of the screen), scroll down until you find the Birthday calendar, and touch it so that it has a tick mark beside it.  Not only will the birthday show up every year, it will even tell you how old they are!

  • How do you add a custom label to dates in contacts.....

    How do you add a custom label to dates in contacts- I have multiple birthdays in contact group and want to change label through customise to add additional birthday- unless another way to add second birthday to contacts and identify each one?????? or way to link contacts with same address phone number etc but id birthdays?????

    You have some contacts with more than one birthday?
    To add a custom label for a date, select Edit for an existing contact. Select Add Field. Select Date. Scroll up with the Info window above the date selection and select Other for the new date selection. Select Add Custom Label and then select this label for the new date field for the contact.
    As far as linking dates with multiple contacts, the answer is no to that.
