I'm not sure what part of Chufu's response was insightful and it certainly was not the solution to my problem. In fact, it really quite frustrated me and was kind of the crummy answer you get from customer service when they're talking to you like your're an idiot. I've been working in IT for 20 years and I don't report a problem without first making sure it isn't something I did. Of course I read that in the original announcement, but family sharing was clearly being offered to me in the app. It clearly was trying to let me sign up, but then something went wrong. To follow up, the problem continued to occur for the next day or so. Finally, on a whim, I deleted and recreated my family group. After that, things worked fine. There is definitely some sort of bug in the system, and more importantly probably an error message that isn't being reported that should be. It's pretty frustrating for the error message to be effectively, "It didn't work".
