I hope that help you by your configuration...
Your Device-ID is a cryptical number
thanks for the quick response. I did exactly the same, only with a different outcome
Ok that's crazy, just isn't it working with the Apple Watch, or is it not working with any of your devices? I don't have an Apple Watch and I can't test it ...
same result with my MacBook :(
hmm ok, do you use the ID with or without quotation marks? Without its correct... Then I have no solution to the problem. Sorry ... could you take screenshots of all node settings again?
finding devices works fine, so the iTunes account settings seem to be ok
oh, without quotation marks:-)
Ok :-D does that mean it works?
unfortunately not. just wanted to answer your previous question:-) all devices are found but I can't send a message to any, no matter what kind of device it is
Ok, than go to the next test... Working messages from the Icloud Website?
I have tested my own settings again, I only get this errors if the ID does not match. Do you have single quotes in your ID?
or other special characters in your id. In my ID's there are only characters (a-zA-Z) and numbers (0-9) and /, +, =
same with me, no obvious traps...
ok, then unfortunately I'm at a loss. Maybe someone else reading this can help. Another thing you could test would be an account of a friend or from a family member.
yes, i’ll try that. thanks anyway for trying - and of course for the node itself, it’s really useful!

Before I comment - I totally agree, a fantastic "node-red" implementation, really appreciated.
I have the exact same problem as described. Sending a message always fails with '500' 'Sending failed - check your device ID'
Summary: "Find My Phone" Works "Locate My Devices (Input)" Works (33 devices found) "Send Message" Error 500 - "Sending failed - check your device ID" [iMac, iPhoneXS, etc]
I will be happy to help diagnose.
I can confirm that using a different Apple account results in the same error.
I have an Apple "Family" of 5 people. Using the "owner" of the device as the 'Account' within the "Send Message" node => fails error 500 Using a member of the "family" as the 'Account' within the "Send Message" node => fails error 500
Both accounts mentioned work fine for the other "Find/Locate" nodes, and retrieve data for all devices known to the "Family".

Hello jochenv, please check if the Problem can be solvend with follow solution from RaoulSargent: https://github.com/PfisterDaniel/node-red-contrib-apple-find-me/issues/15#issuecomment-840477868

Hope this helps... Things I have recently found/learnt:
This means that if I create a flow and use 'MY' Apple ID Account, that flow can only find/msg devices belonging to 'MY' Apple ID account. It is a 1:1 relationship between Apple ID accounts and Devices.
In other words if the flow uses 'MY' Apple ID account and the flow wants to send a msg to my 'WIFE' iPhone then it will fail. To achieve this I need to have a switch in the flow to use a different 'find-my' node to send the message, with that 'find-my' node using the Apple ID account of my 'WIFE'.
Previously I was using a "FAMILY" Apple ID in the flow for all actions to devices that belong to that same "FAMILY" - This does not work. The 1:1 relationship is enforced.
As describe in Issue 15, I deleted my previously working flow and recreated it, and in doing so I discovered the change in Device ID and the 1:1 relationship. So I suppose the moral of this story is that just because it was previously working before, consider that multiple things have now changed and you should review the whole flow.
Hope this helps.
Hi, thank you for that detailed description. I couldn't have described it any better.
perhaps I am too dumb to enter it correctly, but I always get an error 500 when I enter the device id and want to send a message. message payload is empty in the debug node. thx:-)
