I cannot accept or decline invitation under Family Share. Why?

I send an invitation and go into my iCloud email and click on view invitation but it does not give me the option to accept or decline. Anyone know why?

Hi smwbruns,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing (i.e. if you are the one starting a family group, or if you are trying to join a group someone else has created). If you are still having issues either inviting or joining a Family Sharing group, you may find the following article helpful:

App store will not let me download the free Yosemite because a family member has already done so. Can I get it under family share?

I went to download the free version of OS X Yosemite, and when I clicked the "free" button a message appears saying that a family member has already downloaded it and the only option I have is to buy it. Can I access the free version through family share? If i leave family share can I download the free version?

We don't want you to leave your family!
I think that the best thing would be preparing an USB loader of the Yosemite installer and then use it for new installation process.

Find my friends won't let me accept or decline invites... It also won't let me send out invites.. I only have 2 followers

I just accepted 2 friends on find my friends but now it won't let me accept, decline, or send out invites... The buttons are there but not like "lit up" to press.. Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a solution?

Do you have any restrictions for purchasing apps on the phone? Settings > General > Restrictions. If you have a Mac computer or another Apple device can you purchase things in the App Store using the same Apple ID on something else?

Trying to set up family share and the invitation does not show the accept decline option so we can't accept the invitation. Anyone know how to fix?

invitation to family share does not have the accept or decline option to choose

Several things here so let me attempt to clarify.
For iCloud the reason the contacts where removed from he other device is because you updated your contacts, in this case deleted them, and then iCloud updated the other device to match. By deleting the iCloud account on the device it will stop the device from using that iCloud account and therefore nothing will change on the other device. By using a seperate Apple ID you can still use the features of iCloud, Find My iPhone comes to mind, without your content (contacts, message etc.) merging with the other device
For iTunes, you cannot use two Apple IDs for one account however if you use the same account iTunes on your computer will keep the content on each device seperate very nicely. You can also configure the settings for iTunes and the App store on each device to keep the content from automatically downloading to the other device. What I meant by share apps and music is this. What happens if you find a game, lets say Minecraft, that you really like and it cost, as Mincraft cost, $6.99USD. You buy it and play for a while and then you realize that your husband really likes the game as well. If you both use the same Apple ID for iTunes he can download the $7.00ish game to his device at no additional charge. If you use seperate Apple IDs for iTunes well... it look like he will also be paying for the game to have it on his account. Same goes for Music and Movies
I hope that clears things up. Let me know if you have anymore question.

Cannot accept invites from calendar

I have a BB Z10, software release 10.2.1.2977 , I cannot accept or decline an invitation anymore. It only provides the option +ADD TO CALENDAR
Thanks for the help

Is it an isolated case, or there are others who are having the same problem: No more acceptance with notification to the organizer. That functionality is required to inform the invite organizer that we acknoledged his invitation with an ACCEPT or DECLINE or TENTATIVE...

Trouble with viewing family share invite on email??

I am the family share manager and i sent out 2 invites to family members. they were not able to open the invite on the email. Has anyone ran into this problem???

A bit different, I've been sending and resending the invitations under Family Sharing but none of my kids nor wife have yet to receive a single invitation yet to attempt and open and accept ?? Had zero issues updating to Yosemite and IOS 8 across all my devices but family sharing I am spinning my wheels going nowhere. Docs said they can accept actual email or by invite showing up in family sharing under iCloud in System Preferences. Try the other...

Change credit in apple ID for family share

Went to apple ID site to change age from adult to child (8) didn't work. Further under family share credit is on but A) daughter has a credit B)site asked to change to visa because I used debit but in settings it's listed as visa and when we re enter the card as visa doesn't accept so can't go further to change adult to child or when older daughter buys app visa/debit comes up and won't let her choose credit she entered (gift card) already
confused!?

Why does my music not show up for my wife with family share?

With all new devices (MBP retina using Yosemite/iPhone 6’s iOS8.1):
I’ve create my family share list with my wife. None of my music shows on her phone, iPad, or computer. Under Family Share on the Apple site, it suggests the ability to share and download what you like. Not sure what is going on. Any ideas?

Hello JimAguilar,
The article linked below details how to go about your family members' content from your devices.

Family share invitation with no accept or decline buttons

I have sent a family share invitation to my husband and the invitation he received has no accept or decline button. Why?

Usually, that would mean that he is not running ios 8 or already belongs to other family.

When I invite someone to join my family share they click on accept and get an error message that they cannot join family share

Lori --
What can I say, but thank you, thank you and thank you!
Your timely response saved the day -- it was a little hairy there for a while, with .jpg files all over the desktop, but after resorting to pen and paper (still necessary at times) and recording the numbers of all files, I am now good to go.
The little green star and the bogue award of 10 points doesn't begin to convey how helpful your post, but it's all we're given (plus these words, of course).
To briefly sum up -- This morning (after the debacle last evening that started all this) I was trying to reconcile myself to the fact that my photos were lost for good and that I had only myself to blame.
Now, I have all my photos back (more than 200 hundred, some of them really kind of cool, if I do say so myself) and all are now sitting nicely in iPhoto waiting to be manipulated, edited and otherwise toyed with.
All thanks to you, Lori.
Not that I wish the heartache I just went through over the last 24 hours on anyone, but I do hope that I get the chance to help someone out as much as I was helped out today. Good Karma and all that.
This site flat out rules!
Thanks again.

Family Share question I invited, they received, but there was no place to accept or deny, what do I do now?

I Have an Ipad, I am the organizer for Family Share. i invited someone (MacAir) and he received the invite but there was no place to accept or deny.
this is for icloud and both of us were signed in. What do I do niw?

Hey stupefied,
Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines how to accept and join a Family Sharing request on OS X:
Start or join a family group using Family Sharing - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201088
Join a family group
You can accept or decline an invitation to join a family from you iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac. If the invitation is sent to your email address, you can also respond right from your email. To accept an invitation in iOS 8, go to Settings > iCloud > Invitations. In OS X Yosemite, choose Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Manage Family. Then follow the onscreen instructions.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How do i configure ical to email me when people accept/decline invites

Im running Mac 10.8.2 and im trying to get the calander to email me when someone accepts or declines my invites
My email is configured for smtp and my calander/contacts are managed by the icloud
The only way i know if someone has accepted is to open the event and check the status of the invitees
Many thanks

If you send an email to a non-existant email address, you would get a Mailor Daemon message from the server.
If you send a vaild and correct email address to the correct person, but they have used up their server quota, the email will not be deivered and you would get a response from the server.
If you sent an email with a vaild email address, but not the correct email address for that person, then that email would get delivered to that email address even though it is not for the correct person and you would not get any notification because it was delivered as instructed.
So, if the email is not delivered then you would get a response email from the server.
There are a variety of reasons for non-delivery:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounce_message
There is no method of any server knowing or indeed anyone knowing whether you have typed the correct email address for the recipient. That responsibility is down to you. Servers can only know whether it can or cannot be delivered for various reasons.

ICAL will not let me Accept or Decline new Invites from outlook users

Hi using Ical with mobileme new calender. Ical will not let me accept or decline any new meeting invites or change and updated invites sent to me.

So as the owner of a 140 year old brand who appreciates just how important it is to continue satisfying your customers, I have to wonder just how long will it take for Apple to lose the loyalty of its raving fans?
I love my iPad . . . except that it won't work with Adobe Flash which makes it kind of useless for many sites that I visit.
I love my iPhone, unless I actually want to use it outside of my home (Cincinnati is always 10 years behind, and our AT&T network is all but downtown for large parts of the day).
And I love my iMacs, so much so that I paid big bucks to integrate it into my office network (I am the CEO, so I can do that) and convinced my wife, mother and mother-in-law to switch from PCs.
Life was grand, integrated, happy!
And now, the MobileMe upgrade, which tried (unsuccessfully) to force me to Snow Leopard (I was able to complete the upgrade manually); then refused to work with Google Calendar (annoying, but I switched my wife's calendar to MobileMe and eliminated the need for Google Cal); but now, I cannot get Outlook notifications to work. Really?
If Apple is going to now be **** bent on making sure that their products are completely incompatible with Microsoft and Google, then I may have to switch back. I understand that Windows 7 is much better than the old XP that I gladly left behind. My cousin has an Android phone which appears to work great. There are now a plethora of new tablet PCs running Android that all appear to be great. And my wife was happy with Google calender and Google Docs, so maybe technology has finally evolved to the point that we no longer need Apple, Steve Jobs or his arrogant my way or the highway brilliance any more.
It is a sad day. I loved Apple. I admired Steve Jobs. But frankly, I feel that my loyalty is being taken for granted by an arrogant company that no longer gives a **** about its customers wants and needs. I NEED Apple devices that can work and play nice with Google, Outlook and Adobe Flash. And Mr. Jobs, if you are too **** proud to deliver this kind of functionality to your customers, the day is fast approaching (and may already be here) when I can find other companies that are willing to do whatever it takes to make my life just a little bit easier. My loyalty is not free, but comes at a price: namely, that you respect me as a customer. The Apple that I knew AND LOVED is fast losing its shine. Does anyone care?

I'm a meeting organizer and I'm using office 365Outlook. When an attendee invited to a meeting tentatively accept proposing a new time for the meeting, I get a message with "New Time Proposed" and, when I open it, the "Accept" or declined
or propose new time button is grayed out so that I cannot accept the new time. When this occurs, I must create a new meeting request with the new time that has been proposed.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
