Change organizer

My husband set up family share in 2015. He passed away in 2018. The credit card he used is no longer valid and it won’t let me change it because I’m not the organizer. What do I do?

See if anything here helps.


You need to disband the existing family using the steps in the article below. The new organizer (you) can then set up the new family and invite the family members to join the new family. If there are children under 13 years old, the new organizer needs to leave the existing family, set up the new family, and then the under 13 years old children can be transferred to the new family.
