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

    I am experiencing the same thing. I have verified that my subscription is shared with my family. Looks like it's a large issue. @Microsoft what's going on?

    Update: my Family Subscription now appears fine in my account, but when trying to open Word (or any app) it says it is being updated. I guess they were updating the system. If someone knows more, please hit me up!
