How to re-configure family sharing if you're not recognised as the administrator?

How to re-configure family sharing if you're not recognised as the administrator? I have several apple machines. Four of them use i.o.s. 8. I want to configure family sharing, but it will not start. I says that it is already configured and suggests that I ask the administrator (it uses the name of that person, which is me) to send me an invitation. It does that on all my machines using ios 8. So I'm at a loss, how to solve this.

It sounds like you aren't logged into your (organisers) iCloud account.

    Hi Saramos,
    When setting up Family Sharing you must have a credit or debit card as your payment method. See this article for reference -
    Family purchases and payments
    When a family member makes a purchase it will be billed to any gift or store credit that they have first. If none exists it will be billed to you.
    As the family organizer, you may not set your billing method for purchases to anything other than a credit or debit card. If you have a store credit such as from pre-paid cards, it may not be shared with other family members. See this article for reference -

    how do I delete family sharing from my i. Pad air

    Hey Lacey07,
    Depending on your setup for Family Sharing, you can either remove others if you are the organizer unless the accounts are for kids that are 13 and younger. If they are 13 and younger, they can be transferred to another Family Share account to then be removed from your account and at that point you should be good. Take a look at the article below to explain further about Leaving Family Share.

    As you connect your ipod to iTunes, an option in the upper right of the screen will appear. When you click this, it will show the different menu for your ipod.

    No. You can't see that on the box. Don't buy iPhones from unauthorized sources and you won't have a problem.

    This usually indicates a problem with your router or cable modem, your ISP's service or cabling outside your house.  First thing I'd try is rebooting the router/cable modem (turn it off, wait 1 minute, then turn it back on).

  • Shared Services database content not found in the specified database."

    Trying to configure Version 11 and get the error: "Shared Services database content not found in the specified database". Relevant details on my issue as below:
    - I'm running Windows 7 and SQL Server 2008 on my local machine.
    - I did have a previous installation of Hyperion 9 on my machine which I uninstalled before installing 11. However, after uninstalling, I could still see the Hyperion EPM (empty folders) in my "All Programs", which I manually deleted.
    - Now I've installed Essbase 11, and for now am trying to configure Hyperion Foundation only (Common Settings and Configure Database is greyed out, I checked deploy to applicaiton server. I left the calculation manager and workspace blank).
    - The next window is the "Configure Shared Services and Database Registry" option. I chose "Perform 1st time Configuration of Shared Services Database". When I enter the relevant details, I got the error mentioned above. My error log file entries are as below:

    I believe version 11 supports Windows 7, but correct me if I'm wrong. What's going on here? Any suggestions on what I should try ?

    Actually when I installed version 9, I never got around to configuring shared services and so never had a shared services database in SQL Server to begin with.
    One question about the registry entry you told me to delete: The (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hyperion Solutions) which currently exists would be the entry for version 11 which I have installed right? It's the only entry for Hyperion Solutions in the registry.
    After uninstalling versino 9, C:/hyperion still existed on my machine (though it didnt have all the subfolders which it did prior to uninstalling), so I manually deleted it before installing verison 11.
    I wouldn't mind installing it on a compatible version of windows, but the thing is that at this point this is all that is available to me.
    and I don't have any other oracle products.
    thanks....

  • Shared Services database content not found in the specified database - EPM

    I installed three VM machines (Workstation) for the following on Windows 2003 OS:
    VM1 : Oragle DB 11g, Shared Services. Workspace
    VM2 : Financial Management, EPMA, Calc Manager
    VM3 : Microsoft Active Directory
    I have configured Database and Shared services successfully and all machines talk to one another.
    Also, I created the appropriate table spaces for the Hyperion products with the right access on the database. And, I am able to connect from the client (VM 2 to the Database VM 1)using SQLplus.
    When I tried to configure Financial Management, using the EPM System Configurator and put in the following values:
    Database Type: Oracle
    Server: VMDatabase (Name of VM1)
    Port: 1521
    SID ORCL
    Username: HFM
    password: *********
    It returned the error message: "*Shared Services database content not found in the specified database*"
    Can someone please help on what I need to check, Please!?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi,
    Information from Oracle Support:
    Shared Services database content not found in specified database
    Cause
    There is a flag in the shared services repository that indicates the shared services database is to be used as a registry. If that flag is not set, the configtool will not re-configure the database as a shared services repository.
    Solution
    Note: Make sure the Shared Services repository is backed up before doing any Shared Services Registry changes.
    The registry flag isRegistryDB must exist and be set to true on the Shared Services Database Connection.
    epmsys_registry.bat VIEW DATABASE_CONN
    Find the shared services database registry entry. The entry in bold will be missing. The italicized item is the 'unique_id' referenced later (different in each installation).
    COMPONENT - 3
    NAME - Database:ORCL:HSS
    ID - +11d1def534ea1be07ad8eb3012d2e3d310a7ff4+
    TYPE - DATABASE_CONN
    HOST - Database
    HYPERION HOME - /home/hypadmin/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1
    PROPERTIES -
    isRegistryDB = true
    dbUserName = HSS
    dbJDBCDriverProperty = oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
    dbJdbcUrl = jdbc:oracle:thin:@Database:1521:ORCL
    registryDatasource = EPMSystemRegistry
    registryDatasourceJNDI = jdbc/EPMSystemRegistry
    dbName = ORCL
    version = 9.5.0.0
    dbPort = 1521
    instance_home = /home/hypadmin/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1
    dbPassword = GABaMyyplja+wLNCmLs8ag==
    Run the following update to populate the isRegistryDB flag with the unique_id being the ID field used in the DATABASE_CONN registry entry.
    epmsys_registry.bat addproperty #unique_id/@isRegistryDB true
    Repeat the epmsys_registry VIEW DATABASE_CONN to make sure the flag is now set.
    You will be able to reconfigure the shared services repository.
    You can mark it as Answer/Helpful if you feel so.
    Cheers!
