iCloud family sharing - accounts

In recent years, I used an Apple ID for all devices. We finally quite peripheral, so I use iCloud family and add members. Two of these members are children who have devices that is unique.

The question - we go to invite them and enter their e-mail address, it tells me I can't send an invitation to myself.

I signed my account main iCloud on each device.

Any ideas? Thank you

It gives you this error because everyone in the sharing of the family should have their own Apple ID.

  • iCloud family sharing Question

    Dear Apple,

    My name is Noah Gilbert, and I happen to be the Expert IT with our family.

    Unfortunately, for these past years, our family of 4 shared an Apple ID and somethings happened.

    When one of us call each other, that the contacts of the things up, and also when you go in recent, there are people that I didn't call, but have called others in our family, and it's something that are not nice and also very scary.

    I read upward on your iCloud, sharing of family and are generally fascinated on this subject, but when diving into the details, it's when it gets a bit murky.

    If all 4 of us was to create an Apple ID and had to get the sharing of the family, what would happen to all of our data.

    The main question is:

    What would happen to all our Contacts, Mail, calendar, iTunes purchases and also the App Store purchases?

    Also, when it would be and current execution, will be our contacts and the stuff of colander, be separated into different lists of info.

    I would really appreciate it if someone from this community come back to me, please.

    Thank you

    First, everyone should have their Apple ID individual to avoid confusion you describe above.  If that were the case, then all the Contacts, calendar, e-mail, purchases of App Store and iTunes purchases will be remained connected to these accounts; under family sharing, however, there are some things that can and cannot be shared.  You can have a read more about it here - What are the types of content can I share with sharing family?-Apple Support

  • iCloud family shared storage

    I have a long video on my iPhone, I've shared on the sharing of family and now is visible on my iPad, I deleted from my iPhone because of the size.

    where is it stored? Is there a limit to how much you can share and time of when it will remove

    For shared albums are limits the number of albums and articles in the albums, you can share.

    For shared albums is without time limit how long an item will remain, but there are limits the number of items that you can download in a certain period of time.

    See this list: My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing limits - Apple Support

    The elements are stored in iCloud and will remain, as long that you do not remove the shared album or the items contained in the album.

    But you must keep a backup on a computer; just in case where you accidentally delete your share of the album list the shared. You will not be able to restore from iCloud.

  • Family sharing and iCloud iOS 10?

    Hello

    I'm after some tips on iCloud and sharing of the family. (devices have been upgraded to iOS 10)

    I used to have several devices (2 iPhones and iPads 2) 1 Apple ID.

    Because of mixed text, etc. messages and cross the composition, I enabled sharing of family.

    The original Apple ID (now used to connect iCloud as well) is on my iPhone and has the credit card for App store purchases related.

    My wife has her own Apple ID / iCloud login & "procurement families" are related to the "original" ID

    2 questions:

    1. I want to be able to share contacts through synchronization iCloud (currently syncs OTA to Outlook on a Windows PC) - I know that this could not be done directly under iOS8/9, but I was wondering if this can now be done under iOS10?
    (I know there was a way to have the 2nd iCloud account on each of the devices for synchronization of contacts, but want to avoid if possible workarounds).

    Maybe there is a way to have the "original" as the master Apple ID / organizer represent (Sync contact, purchases, etc.) and introduced myself as a member of the family, as I did for my wife? (ie. so we have 3 apple ID for 2 devices) - is it possible?

    2. Similarly, was it an easy Save photos of each device to this single account iCloud "original"?  (he has 50 GB storage, barely used so much space to save the photos on the other phone).

    Thank you

    1 iCloud contacts cannot be shared.

    2. in order to save photos to each device, as you say, each device must be connected to the same ID of Apple/iCloud.  Why not consider sharing photos via the sharing of the family?

    The sharing of family purchase don't apply to the Apple store? How fresh Spotify my sister by charging me by iCloud family shares? And without notification, or by e-mail.

    Say you that you be billed for the purchase of your sister? If it is then see the page that you have published since:

    After you set up your family, anytime a family member throws a new purchase, that it will be charged directly to your account, unless the family member has gift or store credit. First of all, their store credit will be used to pay the invoice total or partial. The rest will be billed to the card of the family of the Organizer. The family Organizer, the revenue generated by the transaction will be sent to you. Learn more about how are charged purchases made on iTunes Store.

  • Family sharing - child accounts are adults

    We have four adults Apple ID all related to the same family sharing.  I created the ID Apple before family sharing the existence when I created two accounts for my children so I did the adult accounts (if I remember correctly, when I tried specifying their actual birthdates he told me that the miners could not have Apple ID...).  In any case, this is the current configuration, the family shares with everyone as an adult ID.

    I have two specific questions.

    1. How can I force all purchases to devour the credit on my ID?  My account is the "Organizer" and I have a credit of $30 on my account, but the other day my son (who is an adult Apple ID) bought a game and he charge my credit card $1.06 instead of take it from my account credit (his account has no credit balance).  I guess it has something to do with the fact that his ID is an adult instead of the child...  No indication as to how I should proceed?

    2. the two children just got several gift cards so that they will be adding credit balances to their identity papers.  According to me, this means that whenever they purchase something it will use up to their credits before it charges my card.  Is this correct?  And if so, it brings back me to question 1, once they use their entire balance how can I force it to use my credit on my account before it charges my card?

    Thank you!

    You are right #2.  If they have in-store credit, which will be used for purchases before going to the credit card of the Organizer.

    There is no way to get their purchases to use your store credit.

  • Family shared & Apple pay payments

    I got iCloud family configured sharing with my partner for some time, with my main flow configured as a shared payment card. I changed since that to my debit card to our account to join.

    I pay Apple set up on my iPhone and only linked it to my main debit card - it is the card available only to pay Apple.

    If I'm shopping in the App Store / iTunes - what card would be charged?

    It will be any method of payment you have linked to iTunes - payment methods that you can use in the iTunes Store, the App Store and the iBook Store - Apple Support
