family sharing

I purchased the Endless Numbers app on an iPad with child profile (newest gen iPad). I approved the purchase from my iPhone when the notification popped up. The entire app with in-app purchase downloads fine on my iPhone 7Plus. However, on the iPad, which is where I most need the app, it still...

I restored my iPhone 6 recently, and all the apps seem to have not been fully updated when using an iCloud backup, so I have like 73 updates to do. When I try to do those updates it says "Theres is a billing problem with a family member's previous purchase" "Ask the family organizer to update...

So I went onto the App Store today to download an app from another Apple ID which is linked with family sharing and couldn’t find the option to select the other Apple ID in the App Store. Family sharing is setup correctly on the iPad, I checked and it works fine on my iOS10 devices. I had the...

I just saw that iCloud Family Data Sharing is enabled in iOS 11 beta and was able to turn it on for my family. I haven’t been able to find much about this feature and the beta release notes do not mention any current issues with this feature. I have enabled devices on iOS 10 to use this features...

I setup family sharing a few years ago but had non-stop issues with a few things regarding its operation. All those details are a bit fuzzy at this point but again i tried to set it up a few weeks ago and add my daughter and had one of the same problems. 1. I don't want my kids or anyone...

Does anybody know how to access shared purchases on iOS 11? You used to be able to go with under updates and see other people in your family plans purchases, but that's no longer the case from what I am seeing. Any ideas?

can one send an invitation to a sister or brother's Apple ID or is it only parent-wife-child ?

I like Apple's Photo Stream. It's one of the best ways to circulate photos to family members. But there's one limitation I wish Apple would change. Shared Photo Streams let my wife and I post photos to one stream, so if either of us gets a photo or video of our kids, we can both share it to...

I first noticed the issues when my both of my iPhone 6 phones stopped accessing Apple Music. I also received a notice via email "Your Apple ID,*, was just used to download,*, from the App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID. You may also be...

Hi all, Is there any way to have my family's photos all uploaded into one location without having to manually add our photos to the family album each time we take photos? We use family sharing with separate iCloud accounts right now. When we try sharing an iCloud account we come across some...

Hi there, Since starting family sharing, my iCloud email display name has changed to the name of the 'organiser' of family sharing. Therefore whenever I send an email to somebody who hasn't got my email in their contacts, the name that comes up is not of mine. I have tried the steps on this...

My kids share an iPad Mini that's tied to my Apple ID (and shares my iCloud account). Now between that and 3 other devices tied to my Apple ID, I'm running out of iCloud space and and I really don't want to pay for more. The iPad is full of games and videos purchased/downloaded on either my...

I purchased a family apple music plan for myself and my husband. Since the family plan includes up to 6 users I just today put my father on the plan as well. My question is that since I'm the organizer of the family sharing plan will my credit card be charged if my father makes a purchase with...

I have a Family Sharing account with 2 of my family members on it. I want to add a 3rd user, my brother, who has never used an iOS device, but had purchases I originally made with his iTunes account on his Mac running Mountain Lion. He doesn't use any iOS devices, and his Mac hasn't been...
