Question: When I go into Media and Purchases and view my account (on iPhone 12), it shows that if I want to change my country, it’s managed by a Family account: hohappleid… I don’t want to change my country, but I’m concerned about how it’s controlled by a Family account…and what is hohappleid? Have only discovered one other post regarding this, and it was the same id name, a few days ago:(
Thanks so much!
iPhone 12 Pro
I have same thing my family is managed by “hohappleid” I don’t even have family sharing turned on! If I start family sharing as main member it goes away but if I turn off family sharing it comes back after couple of minutes “hohappleid” is controlling my family account!
Apple needs to come up with a solution for this I thought this was my previous employer but now after seeing multiple people with this issue I am not sure. I have also been through multiple devices.
I have also been dealing with this same issue forever now. I have been through many devices and new accts and I can’t get rid of it. Apple has attempted to assist me an all they have done is had me factory reset my phone which seemed to make it worse. I am 100% sure my screen is constantly being watched as my passwords are constantly compromised and my find my and locations are constantly being turned on after I turn them off. I am sorry everyone is dealing with this also but glad it’s not just me. People make me feel like I’m losing my mind lol
There is nothing to fix. HOH stands for Head of Household and is a standard term used to describe the person in the Apple Family group that is often referred to as the Organizer. All Apple is saying is that the organizer’s (HOH) Apple ID controls the region of the group.
Apple has a rule that all members of the Family Sharing Group must be in the same country or region. What your seeing is an explanation under the setting to change country/region, that the Head of Household (Apple Family Sharing group) Apple ID controls the country setting and other group members can’t change the setting. Everything is working the way it’s supposed to.
Recent iPhones sold in the US have 2 eSIM cards labeled IMEI and IMEI2. The IMEI number(s) are burned into an EPROM and can only be changed by replacing the entire logic board, an expensive component if not replaced under warranty.
The name of an iPhone and other Apple devices you own share there names with the other devices. For example, one time l had to use 3 iPhones. I named the iPhones and it was a convenience to me so I could tell them apart. For example my Hotspot and AirDrop remember device names.
Because your phone has MDM on it, as mine do too, unfortunately for us. once these people are into your system it’s spreads
Family account is managed by hohappleid…?
