Why my location is not shared with friends on Find My Friends?

I'm not able to share my location with friends. 'Share My Location' option is disabled and I couldn't enable it. Sometimes it is getting enabled automatically and after sometime it is disabled. However my location is never shared with friends. My friends are receiving a messages 'Location is not available'. Location sharing is enabled in settings>privacy>location services>find my friends and also in iCloud>Advanced>Share My Location>. It also displays the name of the friends currently my location is being shared. But my friends aren't able to see my location. What do I do?

You probably using a Wi-Fi iPad without GPS.

  • IPhone Bluetooth not sharing with iMac - WHY????

    iPhone Bluetooth not sharing with iMac - WHY????
    How can this function not be available on iPhone - What an embarrassing disgrace Apple!!
    I refuse to conform to iTunes - NO!
    Am so over your lack of basic user services Apple - sort your **** out!!!

    The simplest answer is that the existing Bluetooth is not suitable for this purpose. With a max speed of 2.1 Mbps (0.5% that of USB), it would be pretty painful to use for this purpose - a backup of a 16GB iPhone would take a whole day. Transfer a movie? It would take an hour.
    On top of that, Bluetooth doesn't provide a standard mechanism for the type of data transfer and synching that iPhone needs -- they'd have to write their own propriety one and you'd still have to use proprietary software to do the data transfer / synching.
    A better mechanism would be standard Wi-Fi, which would be MUCH faster than Bluetooth and for which the protocols necessary are already in place. It's still comparatively slow to USB (about 10% that of USB), but much faster than Bluetooth. However, it appears that Apple's research has led them to believe that waiting an hour or two for the phone to backup over Wi-Fi using the existing mechanism is still undesirable.
    From what they've indicated about iOS5, however, it seems that they will be supporting more over-the-air updating and synching mechanisms, meaning that, for the first time, you can do most everything but backup the phone without iTunes (though document exchange for certain apps is much faster and easier with iTunes, it won't be necessary).

  • Printer hp laserjet m1212nf mfp is not shared with the homegroup

    Dear friends of HP
    I'm using the excellent HP Printer, but everytime Iturn it on, it asks me to make a "SMART INSTALLATION" if not my PC doesn't beguin to print and the default printer stays in grey color in the Control Panel.
    I'm using windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits.
    I've contact a lot of times to the israeli HP support and they kindly "fix it" by uninstalling and re-installing my printer.
    The next time I want to use the printer the same thing happends and asks me to make the Smart Installation.
    Today I've got from Windows Troubleshot this error:  "Printer HP Laser Jet Professional M1212nf MFP is not shared with the homegroup."
    The printer driver installed is:  "LJM 1130_M1210_MFP_Full_Solution"
    Please help me to fix this troubleshot that is bothering me for more than half an year.
    Yours sincerelly: uzi2003

    Hi Uzi,
    It seems as the HP Smart Install feature is trying to reinstall the printer upon each restart.
    Try following this tool by selecting Disable to turn off Smart Install for the printer:

    Next reboot the PC and try printing again, as well check if any prompt appears or not.
    If you still experience any printing issues, try following the HP Print and Scan Doctor below and check again:

  • Why are my fields not moving with my Dynamic stamp ? Only the artwork appears

    Why are my fields not moving with my Dynamic stamp ? Only the artwork appears

    Sounds like you're a candidate for Lightroom...based on the time you don't
    want to spend in Photoshop.
    Photoshop install media is likely created in large batches, perhaps in a
    foreign country, so it's understandable that you get Photoshop 11.0.0 is on
    the media.
    I don't know as I would use ProPhotoRGB as my working space in Photoshop.  I
    was merely suggesting that you look at your color settings to make sure
    things were the same on both machines.
    How do you know your actions are the same?  Did you copy the action
    recording from one computer to the other, or did you merely record the same
    steps on each one?  Have you compared the details of each action step in the
    Actions Palette to make sure they are the same?  The symptoms still sound
    like something different than sRGB being the output color-space, or the fact
    it isn't embedded on one or the other of the computers.
    How are you viewing the JPG when it looks the same or different than the
    RAW?  Are you looking at the side-by-side in Photoshop, or side-by-side in
    Bridge, or are you using a mixture of viewers, one Adobe, and one not?  And
    are you using the Canon Codec on Vista or not?  The Canon Codec would be
    showing the camera-preview in the RAW not the RAW adjustments that Adobe has
    done.
    While the OS shouldn't be causing a difference in how the action is run, a
    difference between OSes may make a difference in the processing to show up.
    The camera profile associated with a RAW file is visible in the
    third-from-right tab in ACR over at the right.  The one with the little
    DSLR-camera icon on the tab.
    Can you attach the two JPGs on a reply, here, or if not, upload a ZIP of the
    two JPGs and the RAW to a file-sharing site like http://www.rapidshare.com/
    and post the download link(s)?

  • Why Toshiba notebooks are not delivered with the common Vista install CD

    Our household now has two x Toshiba laptops, both of which were supplied with MS Vista Home Premium pre-installed.
    The nature of the Recovery Media provided with these machines is such that (a) we do not have sufficient flexibility over volume/partition sizes, program locations etc., and, more specifically.
    It makes it necessary for the majority of the bundled software (Norton Security etc.,) to be installed by default in the event of a system failure. (And immediately uninstalled following recovery! An unnecessary waste of time.)
    Bearing in mind that a proportion of the price paid for each laptop must have included a cost for the Vista Operating System, does anyone know if it is possible to obtain a Master Recovery disk which ONLY consists of the operating system, and which allows us the flexibility of configuration which used to be available when the OS was purchased as a separate product.
    Additionally, please let me know if it is possible to purchase Toshiba laptops as a RAW machine, i.e no OS supplied, and I will then buy my own and cut out the rubbish which is supplied on the pre-installed media.

    >Why Toshiba notebooks are not delivered with the common Vista install CD?
    The answer is very simple: software is bundled to hardware and when you buy notebook you buy license for preinstalled Vista version and you can install recovery media so often you want and it belongs JUST to your notebook model. It cannot be used with other notebook or PCs.
    If you get usual Vista installations DVD it can be installed on each computer system. For such purposes you must buy Microsoft installations DVD.
    As you already wrote Toshiba recovery image contains much software that can be not useful for you. You can remove it from the system and nobody force you to use them. I do the same.
    After clean OS installation the first thing I do is to remove or software I don't need or I don't like.
    I optimise preinstalled OS on my own.

  • Why does Apogee Jam not work with the Ipod Touch 4G

    Hi,
    I have a Apogge Jam an it works fine with my Mac Book, but it does not seem to be compatible with my Ipod Touch 4g.
    Only the Gibbson L&M app recognize the Apogee Jam, but no other App (Ampkit, ....) :-((
    With the IPhone 4 it shall work, can tell me anybody why Apogee Jam is not compatible with the Ipod Touch 4g (
    although the Gibson-App works)?
    Is there perhaps still other Apps which work with the Ipod Touch and Apogge Jam?
    Thanks
    Michael

    I cannot answer the specifics, but I would guess it is a software issue because Griffin iTalk app will cooperate with the Apogee JAM on an iPod Touch 4g running iOS5.  If this app can do it, then one would presume the other apps could be updated to do it also.
    From last week up until yesterday, Apogee actually listed the 4G Touch as a compatible device with the JAM.
    Apparently there was some confusion about Garageband now supporting iPod Touch and its functionality with JAM.

  • Why does Server Monitor not work with non-Xserves?

    Does anyone know why Server Monitor does not work with non-Xserve computers? We acquired a Power Mac for a server, based on there being no apparent difference except for the obvious. Turns out there are some differences after all.
    Do Power Macs lack some hardware components or is this just a software thing?

    God question, unfortunitly I dont have the answer but I would also like to know why the software only works for X-Serve....Is there any 3rd Party Software that is similar to "Server Monitor"?
    Thanks

  • Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

    Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

    Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

    spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.
