Getting online but not sharing location message from daughter's cellphone however her location service button is on.

Find My iPhone would show the location of your daughter's phone if it is being shared, but again, not sure what message you are referring to in regards to Find My iPhone. Here is the support article for sharing location:

Share your location with your family - Apple Support

Possibly that will help to clarify what you will see and where.

Sorry, but not sure what you are asking. Please provide specific information as to what it is you are trying to do, and what the issue is when you try to do it. We cannot see your device, nor can we intuit what it is you are asking about with scant information. We need a complete description of the issue as you are seeing it.

I'm having this same problem. On my iPad's "find my phone" my daughters phone shows up as "online but not sharing location". Her share location is on. It has always worked before. Did you ever get a satisfactory answer or figure this out yourself?

Hi, I am also having a similar issue. I track my teenager's location by signing into icloud -find my iphone and usually see her location just fine if her phone is powered on. But today, I am seeing a message that says "Online - No location available". I looked at settings in privacy/location and find iphone and they all seem to be on. I did not confirm that my teen is signed into their own apple account though. I am wondering if your question about one is signed on to their own apple account might be the issue. I believe that my teen might sometimes sign into her friends' apple accounts to track their locations, so I wonder if this might cause the message I am getting. What is confusing is if she is not signed into her own account, how would the cloud service know that she is online? Confusing...

Any more info you could provide on this subject would be appreciated.

Thanks,

If you are signing into iCloud.com/Find My Phone using your daughter's Apple ID, it would appear she is signed into her phone using her Apple ID. You may be getting the No location available because she is somewhere that the signal strength can't pinpoint her. I've seen that happen a few times.

Is she signed in using the same Apple ID you are using? Are you signing into Find My Phone using her Apple ID?

I would like to get online on my imac

Not worried about a daughter just want to get on

Try going to iCloud.com.
