All of a sudden I'm being asked to subscribe to get Microsoft 365 but am sharing a family subscription with my husband. It says my subscription has been cancelled and directs me to the payment section. On his device it says i cannot be invited as I'm already sharing but i have lost the connection and can only view or print documents but not change or start new ones.. Can you help

    Yet another added to the list - obviously something has broken behind the scenes.

    I also had the same issue this morning. I had a document open and all of a sudden, a message popped up informing me that my subscription had been canceled/expired. I checked my family subscription, and it was renewed just 3 months back. If someone could help, I would highly appreciate it!

    Found a workaround. Try logging in as the main family member instead of trying to activate Office as a family member. Upon that, you can switch back to the family member.
