Solution for family shared calendar using Mobile Me

Hello,
I don't think this issue has been resolved. Here's what we did:
Home computer is running the lastest update 10.6.4 ical is set to my (primary mobile account). It is a caldav account set to push. My iphone is set-up using a mobile account set on push(fetch data).
My Wife's iphone for the calendar to set to only cal.me.com. To set-up go to Mail/contacts/calendar (chose other) now chose caldav. Use the exact settings on the second iphone that you have on your home computer under ical- (your mobileMe user and password- with the server set to cal.me.com...
All subscribed calendars must be entered on each phone. With this you both can add edit and delete events in real time
I hope this helps, sorry if already posted.

Since no one has used Mobile Me, you will probably get the best answers currently available to all of us by reading the two links provided by Apple which are located at the top of the .Mac Discussions Category page: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=116

  • Can iTunes credit be used instead of credit card for Family Sharing Organizer?

    I'm aware that a member in a Family Sharing group uses their iTunes credit (gift cards) before the Organizer's credit card is charged.
    But what happens if the Organizer has iTunes credit? Will the members' purchases get deducted from that credit prior to the credit card?
    Haven't found any real info on this yet :/
    side question: if all of the members have iCloud Drive monthly fees, will that also get deducted from the Organizer's account? (either by credit card or iTunes credit)

    Sad but true, I've tried to pay for iTunes Match with my credit and couldn't because it's a subscription service, regardless the credit amount I have. The system ask me to pay with my credit card too.
    How are Family Sharing purchases billed?
    When you initiate a new purchase, it will be billed directly to the family organizer's account, unless you have gift or store credit. First, your store credit will be used to pay the partial or total bill. The remainder will bill to the family organizer. iTunes Store credit on your account isn't shared with other family members. So if the family organizer has a $50 credit on their account and another family member initiates a purchase, it won't deduct from the organizer's iTunes Store credit, but will bill the organizer's credit or debit card.

    Can I use paypal for family sharing purchases?

    Hi muchjk,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    No, the family organizer cannot use a PayPal account for the payment method. The article below provides more information about Family Sharing and supported forms of payment with the iTunes Store.
    What payment methods can I use in the iTunes Store

  • Can family sharing be used for apps bought on PC iTunes or ios6?

    We have various (free and paid) apps bought either on iTunes for PC, or on an older iPod Touch running ios6.  Will these apps be available on other iDevices if I set up Family Sharing on an iPad running ios8?  Can the PC or older iPod Touch be linked to the primary account for Family Sharing?

    If the app, book or movie was purchased by a member of the family, the content is available to all members of the family. You have one person that is the head of the family, provides the credit card. Any other family members purchase content such purchases must be approved by the head of the family.

  • How to publish a family shared calendar?

    In Calendar, Apple allows users to make a calendar public and share it over the internet with a webcal address.  However, I can't seem to find this function for the Family shared calendar that is automatically created when Family Sharing is activated in iOS 8.  Is there any way to publish a Family Sharing calendar so that other people can subscribe to it?

    Well, I figured a way to do this - sort of.  Note; this is NOT the most elegant solution, nor a full/real fix.  At least you will get a read only version of the Family calendar.  The caveat in this is that you require Microsoft Outlook at some point.  To make matters worse, I'm not exactly sure of the steps I took.
    My basic scenario is that our family has a Mac at home along with iPhones, but I use Windows at work.  Somewhere along the line I installed iCloud for Windows at work - and I believe during that install it saw that I have Outlook installed on my machine, and sometime during that process it created a link in Outlook to my the shared Family calendar.
    I am a bit vague on this because I don't actually use Outlook on a regular basis.  I was trying it out some time ago and never went further with it, and I only went to check it after I started looking into this Family calendar nonsense.  I note that now I can CREATE an event in Outlook and it will propagate back to Family Calendar and show up on our mobile device(s).
    Within Outlook, if you right click on the Family Calendar and select Sharing Settings (Image 1) you will find an option to "Publish a link to a read-only version of this calendar on iCloud.com" (Image 2).  Press the Copy Link button... then use that in your other application (Google Calendar for me).
    Not exactly the best solution... but until I find something else...

  • Family sharing calendar missing

    We are using family sharing. My daughters iPhone 5 is missing the family sharing calendar. She is on her own Apple id and is updated to the latest OS. when I look at the calendar app, the family calendar is not an option. She is set up on a child account but restrictions are not enabled in her phone. any help is appreciated.

    Hello Jacqui L Davies,
    It sounds like you may need to change the settings for access to the Family Calendar.  See if this section of the iPad User Guide applies to your situation:
    Share iCloud calendars - iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/8/#/iPadc2a14a22
    Share iCloud calendars
    With Family Sharing, a calendar shared with all the members of your family is created automatically. See Family Sharing. You can also share an iCloud calendar with other iCloud users. When you share a calendar, others can see it, and you can let them add or change events. You can also share a read-only version that anyone can view.
    Create an iCloud calendar. Tap Calendars, tap Edit, then tap Add Calendar in the iCloud section.
    Share an iCloud calendar. Tap Calendars, tap Edit, then tap the iCloud calendar you want to share. Tap Add Person, then enter a name, or tap to browse your Contacts. Those you invite receive an email invitation to join the calendar, but they need an iCloud account in order to accept.
    Change a person’s access to a shared calendar. Tap Calendars, tap Edit, tap the shared calendar, then tap the person. You can turn off their ability to edit the calendar, resend the invitation to join the calendar, or stop sharing the calendar with them.
    Turn off notifications for shared calendars. When someone modifies a shared calendar, you’re notified of the change. To turn off notifications for shared calendars, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Shared Calendar Alerts.
    Share a read-only calendar with anyone. Tap Calendars, tap Edit, then tap the iCloud calendar you want to share. Turn on Public Calendar, then tap Share Link to copy or send the URL for your calendar. Anyone can use the URL to subscribe to the calendar using a compatible app.
    Hope that helps ...

  • Family Sharing Calendar not "sharing" events among family members

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone has a similar issue and can shed some light.
    I've setup a Family with myself as the organizer.
    We have 2 iMacs, 1 MacBook Pro, 3 iPhones, and 3 iPads used by my three family members.
    The "Family" calendar now shows up on all devices but events made on a single device are not showing on any of the other devices.
    I've read all I can find and it appears to me that the "Family" shared calendar should sync across all family members without the need to "share" the calendar as we did in the past.
    Can anyone confirm that is the case?
    As a quick fix I simply "shared" the Family calendar (using email address's of the family members) and it is working, but this is essentially the same way we used to share a calendar.  Just doesn't seem to make sense to me.
    Thanks in advance for any insight!
    Jim

    I am having the same problem. I have done some testing and have found the following:
    If I create an event in the Family Calendar on my Mac it shares it with all devices; however, if I create a new event in the Family Calendar on any of my iOS devices it doesn't share with any of my devices including my Mac. This has only been an issue since I upgraded to iOS 8.1.
    I hope someone can help clarify if this truly is an iOS 8.1 issue and when they might come out with another update. This is a big problem for families trying to stay up-to-date with each others schedules.
    Thanks.

  • How do i show Family sharing calendar in outlook?

    i have the icloud add-in installed and i can see my personal calendar, but i would like to see the Family shared calendar as well. is this possible?

    thanks for your reply Jeff, however this does not solve my problem.
    The Family calendar is automatically created when you nable Family Sharing, as such seems to act differently from a normal calendar. i can see it on all devices and icloud.com but it is not included in Outlook when using the iCloud app for PC.

  • Can I be a part of family sharing and use my own credit card?

    Can I be a part of family sharing and use my own credit card?

    Hello SamLupien,
    As detailed below, all purchases are billed to the Family Sharing organizer.
    With Family Sharing, one adult in the family—the family organizer—agrees to pay for any iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases that other family members initiate while they're part of the family group. This also includes ongoing subscription purchases initiated by family members, such as iCloud storage, iTunes Match, and Newsstand subscriptions.

  • How do you find a notification for Ask to Buy for Family Sharing once it is off your screen and not in drop down Notification Center?

  • Family shared calendar events not showing in Today pull-down

    iPhone 5s
    IOS 8.0.2
    When I pull down the Today/Notification screen, the calendar section will not show any events that are entered in the Family Shared calendar. Calendar events in other calendars show up fine. Is this a configurable option?

    I should fix a mistake in the original post. Where I said, "And when tomorrow comes around, those events don't show in the Calendar app," it should be, "And when tomorrow comes around, those events don't show in the Calendar section of notification centre."

  • IOS 7: How to view shared calendars using apple Calendar server

    We use an OS X Server with Calendar server. On OS X you can see shared (delegated) calendars in Calendar by selecting the them in the preferences.
    Using iOS 6 one could view shared CalDAV calendars by adding the same account more than once each with a different server URL. A fair bit more work but once configured it worked like a charm.
    The Calendar app on iOS 7 still does not show delegated or shared calendars using the Calendar server from Apple. Because iOS 7 does not allow to add a CalDAV account more than once the iOS 6 workaround is no longer possible.
    How can I view shared Calendars on iOS 7?
