Can I share my contacts list with family members?
can I share my contacts list with family members in the same way as sharing tunes and photos? If so how do I go about setting this up?
Perhaps you should read these Apple documents about what is stored by iCloud. The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview:
Your iCloud account includes 5 GB of free storage for iCloud Mail, Documents in the Cloud, and your iOS device backups. Your purchased music, apps, books, and TV shows, as well as your photo stream, don’t count against the 5 GB of free storage ........
Here’s what iCloud backs up:
Purchased music, movies, TV shows, apps, and booksPurchased music isn’t backed up in all countries. Purchased movies and TV shows are backed up only in the U.S. Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore. Some previously purchased movies may not be available in iTunes in the Cloud. A movie’s product details page in the iTunes Store shows if the movie is unavailable.

Can you share iCloud drive storage with family members?
Seems like this would be a common question but Apple Support search came up empty. So, can you share iCloud drive storage with family members?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can share they space if they all use the same Apple ID, but that's not really a good idea, because you'll then share contacts, calendars, photos etc etc. -

Can I share a Reminders list with someone else through iCloud?
I am wondering if I can create shared lists with my wife (separate iTunes account) in Reminders on iPhone/iPad that we can instantly update through iCloud. We're essentially talking about grocery lists and the like. (Yes, I know there are grocery apps out there but that's not exclusively what we're trying to do). We both have iOS 6 or higher. I have found a few posts related to this question but it appears as though the sharing functionality might have been lost with a recent iOS upgrade. Not sure though. Could anybody help?

Can I share my iCloud storage with family
I purchased 50 Gig of storage on iCloud for my daughter going off to college. I'm now wondering if other family members can all use that allotted space.

Can I share icloud drive storage between family members?
I am looking for easy offsite storage that can be easily accessed. I have been reading a bit about the icloud drive, and it seems simple to add and open files. Can I share the storage with my husband and his computer or not? We currently use carbonite as a backup program. Would icloud drive replace that?
Thank you.
KatieiCloud Drive is tied one AppleID. If you want to share it, all family members would have to use the same Apple ID.
The only Family Sharing Apple Supports for family members with different AppleIDs is sharing your purchases: iTunes items, iBooks, AppStore Purchases, see: http://www.apple.com/icloud/family-sharing/
But iCloud Drive cannot be shared between different AppleIDs, and it is also not meant to be a cloud backup.It is used to store your current working copies of your most important documents, that you need on all devices, and keep the documents updated on all devices.

HT4539 Can you share books through IBooks with family on different IPads?
I bought a book on my IPad and my daughter wants to read it on her IPad 2. Is there a way to share the book?
All content is tied to your account id, but if she has access to your account then she can have the book on her iPad - if she syncs via a different computer and has her own iTunes account then you could copy the book onto a flash drive from your computer and copy it onto her's, authorise your iTunes account on her computer, and then do File > Add To Library to add it to her iTunes library

Is there a way to share icloud storage plan with family members?
I have set-up my icloud storage plan to 200G and i want to share the plan with my husband that only has the default, can i do that? I already have family sharing of photos, apps, etc.. but i want to share storage space. Thanks in advance.
Sorry, but iCloud Storage is tied directly to the iCloud ID that it is linked to, and only to that ID.
Sorry

How can I share contact list with another MAC
How can I share my contact list with another MAC?
Hi,
There does seem to be a presumption in the other reply that your girlfriend is living with you.
A File transfer via Bonjour would then work.
Also the File Sharing in System Preferences > Sharing would cause her computer to show up on your Finder's side bar as a Share.
With iChat if you both have AIM Login names you could still do File Transfers.
(It is slightly more complicated if you have Jabber ID logged in alothough not impossible).

Can we share our photos in the family on different mac´s with Time Capsule?
Can we share our photos in the family on different mac´s with Time Capsule?
It depends on the size and number of photos you are sharing around.
Nothing wrong with putting a copy of the photos on the TC if that works for you. Each person can access the photo just fine like that.
I am not saying don't.. just beware of the risks so do it prudently..
But if the library is too large, you will steal space on the TC that should be used for backups.. if all the computers in the network are backing up to it, don't use too much of the spare space.
Better to buy a firewire drive (or USB but firewire 800 are much faster) and connect it to a computer that is regularly turned on. Share that drive to the network. It will then also be backed up correctly to the TC although again be careful of the amount of files, and still keep a straight copy backup somewhere else.
I am recent convert so workflow on the Mac is not my forte.. so perhaps some of the wiser heads can also drop in and post a reply. -

can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro? I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.
I agree with Chris CA that this is the way I would *expect* iTunes to behave.
When I look at iTunes from my account (my music is in ~/Music/iTunes/ and not available to my spouse's account), I can see in my music library all my rips and my purchases, just as I would expect. I can use Store>View My Account (<myAppleID>) and all is as expected. Home sharing is NOT on.
Doing the same from the other account is not much different, actually. Nothing in the library yet, of course. Store>View My Account (<herAppleID>) also works. I CAN authorize my computer to play her music. I CAN view her iTunes purchases. When I attempt to download the purchases to HER library, though, I get the following dialog box:
Now I interpret this to mean that this computer (mine) will not download from a different AppleID (also mine) for 90 days. Is that [interpretation] correct? -
