Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Family Sharing Organizer

I recently got a new iPhone 13. I gave my old iPhone 11 to my son (wiped clean first). For some reason he is now showing up as the family organizer in our family sharing and as a member. (Even though he is lidded in under his own account). It’s as if the Family Organizer is tied to the phone and not the account. What is going on and how do I fix it?

Have you done as described in this article? -->> see this Apple article: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Then you remove the old iPhone 11 from your account, see this Apple article: Check your Apple ID device list to see where you're signed in

After that let your son sign in with his Apple ID into the iPhone 11.
