Family sharing

How to send link for family sharing? I’m using my email but it’s asking me to send a link to myself.

It seems you may already be part of a different Family Sharing group with the other address. You would have to leave that group before that address can join yours. Realize that Apple identifies you as an email address, not John Smith or whatever. An Apple ID (email address) can only be part of one family at a time.

If you still have questions or problems:


Contact Apple. Click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
