iCloud family invitation problem

We share an Apple ID as a family and we are trying to set up family sharing iCloud storage and it won’t allow other family members to accept invitations because it says they are Family organizers

The reason that it says is that you are all Family organizers is because you are all using the same Apple ID. You can’t share an Apple ID and then use iCloud for Family Sharing Storage. Family Sharing and iCloud Storage Sharing requires that all members have their own Apple ID and iCloud accounts.


You should set up Family Sharing and go from there.
