Is that right, that find my Friends is not working with ios7?

The location of the device ( iphone, ipad) will only be updated if Find My Friends is running on that device. If FMF is completely quit, that device's location will not be updated. This is a terrible change from before !

  • 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.

  • 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?!?

    If nothing in that knowledge base article helps your WiFi chip has probably failed.

  • Find my friends app not working

    I am unable to add or receive followers. It has been working fine for ages then one of my contacts said they couldn't see me anymore. They have sentence numerous requests but it hasn't come through to me (nor has it the other way round) and now another contact can't see me. Anyone else have this issue and resolved it?

    Hey kw05,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:

    Issues with location requests
    You are not receiving requests from others to follow your location
    If you're certain someone has sent you a location request using Find My Friends, and you do not receive the notification:
    - Make sure that you're signed in to the Find My Friends iOS app with the Apple ID your friend is trying to follow. If that was not the case, check the inbox of the email address your friend used, and see if there is any location request email from your friend. If so, tap View Request in that message to accept or decline their request in Find My Friends.
    - Make sure that the option to Allow Friend Requests is turned on:
              - Find My Friends 3.0 or later:
              - On an iPhone or iPod touch, tap Me, then check Allow Friend Requests under Invitations
              - On an iPad, tap the List button, tap Me, tap Info, then check Allow Friend Requests.
              - Find My Friends 2.1.1 or earlier: Tap the Me tab, tap Account, then check Allow Friend Requests under Notifications.
    - Make sure that you're within the limits to accept follow requests. If you have reached a limit, you may not be able to accept more friends until you remove one.
    Your requests to follow others are not received
    - Make sure that you're sending your request to the Apple ID your friend is using to sign in to the Find My Friends iOS app.
    - Make sure that you're within the limits to send follow requests to others. If you have reached a limit, you may not be able to send a location request to more friends until you remove one.
    Note: If you accept a request from a friend that you’re not following, a follow request is sent to your friend automatically (Find My Friends 3.0 or later).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • IOS6 Find My Friends Notification not working?

    I've read some of the other posts but still no dice. I have a 4S and my friend has an iphone 5. We both have always been able to track each other in Find My Friends. Recently I tried to use the Notify Me button for when they leave or arrive at a location and I've never got an alert. the Notify Me button let me select it, I could enter in the criteria but never received an alert.
    I've signed out and back in, made sure there isn't an update for it (Version 2.0 (2A77), etc. but no dice. I've seen notes about needing Passcode or whatnot to be on, but we already had a passcode.
    I am not in Do Not Disturb mode and Notifications are on for Find Friends.
    Anyone have any other suggestions?

    It is in passcode mode and the app is closed out on my iPad and it still notifies me.
    I did another interesting test. My mom just got the iPhone 5 a few days ago.  Here's the setup.  I have a new iPad, 4S, and 5 all running iOS 6 and all on the same WiFi connection.  The iPad and 4S are set up on my account and the 5 on my mom's.
    When I send a friend request from my mom's 5, it instantly shows up on the lock screen of my iPad telling me I have a friend request, but never shows up on my 4S. When I send a friend request from my 4S to my mom's 5 it instantly shows up on her lock screen.
    So the notifications for this app seems to work just fine for the latest generation of iOS products. 

  • HT5594 Has anyone noticed that since downloading IOS 7, that Find my Friends, is not working that well.  It consistently shows my daughter in the River, when she is at home.  It worked great before the download, and now it is barely working.

    My daughter and I both have an Iphone 4S.  We use Friend finder to locate each other when we are in different parts of the state.  It worked wonderfully for like a year, until we downloaded IOS 7, and now it barely works.  Whenever she drives out of her neighborhood it seems to kick in and work ok, but still not great.  When she goes back to her apatment it shows her at her address for a split second, then it quickly jumps to another location far from where is actually is.  I also downloaded another Family finder app, and it shows the exact same thing.  I have a GPS tracker in the car, and it works just fine up there in the same neighborhood, so I don't know how the technology is different.  Can anyone help because she is 7 hours away from where I am in school, and I worry!!

    Thanks to all, tried both suggestions and they worked wonderfully, seems to be all OK now. Many thanks again!

  • Firefox Find on Page does not work reliably in XML.

    I'm troubleshooting xml in firefox. I noticed that CTRL -F find on page does not work for finding strings "reliably".
    Sometimes it finds something and sometimes it doesn't.
    "Strings that are there"..
    You can find next, next, if it worked, but then if you find previous it will fail at some point.
    (View source, find on page) works though.. but not a native page.

    Make sure that "Match case" on the find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check mark.

    you will have the most up to date itunes available for your os 10.6.8. to get a newer version you will have to upgrade to a newer os.

  • I just changed the hard drive on my computer and my music and videos that I got from my friend will not play because I don't remember his password.  Any solutions????

    I just changed the hard drive on my computer and my music and videos that I got from my friend will not play because I don't remember his password.  Any solutions????

    If you are talking about your friend's iTunes password, you are not supposed to use or have his password or even his music,etc. in your computer...

  • I have a website that I am building. Transferring word docs to the site by copy/paste does not work with firefox.Why?

    I am trying to complete my website data entry with fire fox since the security of internet explorer is questionable. I am having no success in transferring written or graphic documents from Fire Fox to my website.

    I assume this is a sitebuilder tool. Could you mention which sitebuilder it is?
    Is the problem that a paste button provided by the sitebuilder does nothing when you click it? This could be related to a Firefox security feature that bars sites from reading your Windows clipboard. Or it could just be broken. If it's a sitebuilder button, I could look into past threads for possible solutions/workarounds.
    For pasting text, instead of using a button provided by the sitebuilder, can you use one of the Windows shortcuts?
    * Ctrl+v
    * right-click > Paste
    * Edit menu > Paste ''(if you use the classic menu bar)''
    That might not work with images...
    Finally, I will say that Internet Explorer 11 is a pretty solid product. If you need to use it for your website builder tool because it only works well in IE, I don't think you are taking a lot of security risk there. Just don't stray over to random sites you don't trust.

  • HT1414 Things that i downloading the first time it not working now why is that

    Things that i downloading the first time it not working now why is that

    Hi there,
    I would restart your device and pc, it could also be a faulty USB connector.
    Try reinstalling iTunes.
    You could also try running iTunes as an administrator (Windows), you can do this by right clicking on the icon and clicking "Run as administrator".
    If this still continues, then take your device to an Apple retail store.
    Hope this helps!

  • I upgraded Safari in my Mac (10.6.8 Leopard) but the new version does not work with my system so that I now have not a working browser. How can I solve the problem and/or install back my previous Safari version?

    I have upgraded Safari in my Mac, but the new Safari does not work with my system. So I find myself without any working browser. How can I solve this problem and/or install my previous Safari version?

    Reinstall Safari 5.1.10 for OS X 10.6.8: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1569. Might do the trick.
    But, frankly, I don't think that simply reinstalling the old Safari will work because of all the peripheral, under the hood changes that happen when you upgrade from one version of Safari to another. Reinstalling 5.1.10 may be insufficient to turn back the clock. (This is the moment where a Time Machine or another form of full backup would save your bacon.)
    While you're getting a copy of Safari 5.1.10, get a copy of Firefox (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/), too, so that you have an alternate browser to use as you're sorting matters.
