HT201493 Find My Friends: 'Notify Me' not working?

'Notify Me' not working?

Passcode lock has nothing to do with it
I think the iPhone 3GS does not support this feature, on an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6 open find my friends press the "Notify" button from the Me page you get the error message below
On iPhone 4S running iOS 6 no error message.

  • HT204407 My Friends Notify Me Not Working

    Although my entire family has iOS 6 installed, the "Notify Me" feature does not work.  I have My Friends turned on in the notification center.  What am I missing?

  • Find My Friends - Multiple Notifications Not Working (Only One)

    When I setup notifications in my Find My Friends, it appears that only the most recent notification I've setup works.  For example:
    I've setup two notifications:
    -Notify Person-B when I leave Home, Every time
    -Notify Person-B when I arrive Home, Every time
    In this situation only the notification for Arriving is working, since it was the most recent created.  If I delete the notifications and create the arrival first and departure last, then only the departure works.
    I'm hoping that I'm missing something here because this is a major flaw.   We want to setup multiple notifications, for example when I arrive and then leave my work, school, etc.  If you can only have one notification per person its borderline useless...
    Help!

    I've tried setting it to both; standard results in dots appearing over a blank background. Setting it to hybrid shows them on the satellite image, but with no street signs. Basically, for some reason, nothing from the map will display.

  • Find my friends app is not notifying when leave or arrive since new update?

    Find my friends app is not notifying when leave or arrive since new update?

    "Find My Friends" never worked even before shel left home. And she also has a new iPhone 6 (and I have a 6 plus ) on latest software update. We tried messing with it at home on wifi and on LTE with out any progress. I'm really disappointed with "Find my Friends" App. Especially for the App been made by Apple. Hope they fix the problem very soon maybe with a new update.

    I own iphone 4 ios 7.04, the new find my friends 3 app doesnt work. my iphone crushes 1 min after and I see the apple logo. please help

    Double tap Home button, delete Find Friends by swiping UP the app's preview in multitask-list.
    Press Home button when finished.
    Do a Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
    Start Find Friends again.

  • My friends browser is not working on his computer how can i download firefox to put on his computer

    my friends browser is not working tech support told us to download a version of firefox onto disc and download it into his computer. How do i do that without affecting my own browser.

    You can download the setup file (Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe) from http://www.mozilla.com/ - If using IE to access that page, choose Save rather than Run to save the setup file.
    Copy that file to a disc or USB flash drive and run it on your friends computer to install it.

  • My e mail notifier is not working althouth i have done a test with my server

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/834474''
    My e-mail notifier is not working. I have checked my e mail notifier settings and tested account which was ok.
    No e-mail notifications are showing but when i enter my windows live mail i do have emails in my inbox.

    I have already tried this but still the same. I have also tried un-pairing my speakers and re-pairing! Still get broken playback at times. This even happens when I am close to the bluetooth receiver.

  • HT204407 Find my friends notify me has not worked since the ios7 update. Help

    Ever since the update to ios7y find my friends app never notifies me when one of my contacts arrives or leaves
    I've reinstalled it.  I've kept it running in the background etc
    Not liking the new update at all. But would like up know how to fix the notify function on this app

    I finally got this to work. Here's my procedure (and it's not ideal).
    On all phones, background run must be ON for FMF.
    On my phone:
    Delete app
    Reboot phone
    On my wife's phone (yeah, this is why it's not ideal):
    Delete app
    Reboot phone
    Reinstall app on both phones
    Sign in on both.
    Setup geofence via Notify Me when (wife) leaves home on my phone
    Setup geofence via Notify Me when (husband) leaves home on her phone
    Et voila.
    Notifications started working again.
    So, it's not ideal because it requires your target to delete, reboot and reinstall/signin for this fix to work. That said, if you're using it to track your kids when they're out on dates or whatever, you should have access to use this workaround.
    Hope this helps!!

    Hi all,
    ok, i've done some experimenting - unfortunatley it may have made things harder to understand!
    I have a 4S and my wife a 3GS. I've removed Find my Friends from both and re-installed. Then i've added each profile again...
    Now when I use my wifes 3GS and search and find my iPhone, the 'notify me' button is enabled and I can set a notification.... However..... If I look at my Find my Friend to see my wifes profile, my notify me button is still greyed out!?
    Very, very weird!
    I have a 4, wife has 3GS.  I see the same thing.  (Both iOS 6. Both updated Friends app.)
    Must be a wife thing!
    (or more likely, another feature not available with a 3GS)

  • Find my friends app no longer works

    The find my friend app was working. But now it no longer works.  it doesn't work on my iPhone or my iPad. I've looked in settings to see what I can do, and I did read something where it says you can only use one device at a time. So I set it for iphone and it doesn't work. Any help?

    i am having problen with find my friend app.
    i Am currently running ios 8 on my iphone 5 while my friend is running ios 8 on iphone 6.
    however, on my find my friend app, it displays location not found for this friend.  I am certain she has accepted my invitation And has shared her location.  Are there any known compatible issues and is there any fix for this? 

  • Does Find My Friends notify friend when you set up a geofence alert on them?

    If I selected to be notified when my friend leaves a location, do they also recieve any sort of notification or push that I set up the alert on them? Or when they leave the location?

    Your questions are asking whether the person being located is being NOTIFIED. The answer depends on your definition what a notification is, but the short answer is NO.
    The device being located does not display any notifications: banner, alert, badge or otherwise.
    The device does not receive a text or iMessage alert.
    When an app is using Location Services, a solid location services icon is diplayed next to the time at the top. This includes Find My Friends' attempts to provide the device's location to the service.
    Please see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4487 and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4008 for more information on Find My Friends and Troubleshooing Find My Friends.
    *Solid location services icon is the small arrow icon. This is different from the outline of the arrow meaning an app will be triggered when a location or 'geofence' is entered or exited.

  • Find My Friends: Notify Me disabled

    Hi all.
    As the subject says. In the Find My Friends app, the Notify me button is disabled and therefore does nothing. Why?
    I have an iPhone 5, so up to date with iOS6 and the latest Find My Friends app. My wife has a 4S with a clean install of iOS6 and the latest Find My Friends app, plus I have at least one other friend with a 3GS, fully updated etc. The Notify Me button is disabled for all my friends list.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks :-)

    Hi Dan
    I'm guessing its because it didn't work properly and they're working on a solution. When I used it to notify me when my girlfriend had left work, I was always notified with the message that I had left work.
    That's my guess anyway, I just hope they sort it soon, I found it very handy.

  • Flickering finder and safari, and sound not working?

    Firstly the screen froze whilst the radio was still playing. I could move the mouse cursor but not click on anything.
    So, I did a safe reboot and the desktop reset.
    Everything now responds to the mouse but Finder is flickering when scrolling and Safari is really flickering - in hte window and address bar.
    The sound is also not working.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi Leroydouglas
    Just been playing with the desktops and found a bunch of open Finder windows along with a window asking me if I wanted to erase the Trash files.
    Seems like they were hiding behind an app window on one of the desktops  (found it by accident as I was scrolling through the desktops using the swipe gesture on my Trackpad).
    I've assigned the Finder to a desktop (desktop 1) and it seems to be OK at the moment (opens new windows and Trash icon works).
    I've tried opening Finder by clicking on the Dock icon in all the desktops and it opens without any problems (you can see it scroll to Desktop 1).  The folders on the desktop I couldn't before now open OK (again in Desktop 1).
    Looks like the quick fix to the problem is to assign Finder to its own Desktop.  I'll be keeping an eye on it  :-)
