I experience what seems to be a well-documented problem from the past. When I try to add a family member to share access to my home, I get the error that says the invitation failed because the Apple ID for the family member I invite is not registered with iCloud. This only happens with a family member. I have two other family members where the invitation worked as expected.
The Apple ID of the family member I'm trying to invite is 100% valid and working. The family member's Apple ID is part of our family group in iCloud, which is linked to the family payment method and shares our 2TB iCloud storage upgrade. So I don't just know that ID is registered with iCloud, it uses shared iCloud services across the same family group that I'm trying to add to home / homeKit sharing.
I have tried all the common "corrections" I could find online; deletes all shared accounts from home and repeats them, invites them from the Hue app, restarts / resets devices. No luck. I have successfully invited and added two family members, but for some reason the one family member's Apple ID will not just collaborate.
Thanks in advance.
