Family share not appearing on 2 gen apple tv

my sister has a 2 gen apple tv and the family share content does not appear. how do i fix that.

TV rentals are only a recent addition, and your original appletv never had them.
you have not lost anything, your appletv still does what it did when you bought it.
if you want access to TV rentals then you need to buy a $99 second generation appletv.
only you can decide if spending $99 is worth it to get "limited" TV show rentals.

Movie purchased on iPad & synced to iTunes not appearing on 2d Gen Apple TV

I purchased Terminator 2 on my iPad a week ago and it is synced to my iTunes movie listings. However, when I tried to watch the movie on my new Apple TV (2d gen), it was not listed in my computer library drop down movies menu. I have home sharing set up on both my iMac and the Apple TV and it works fine for everything else: all of my music and every single movie (except T2) and TV show that I have in my iTunes account shows up in the Apple TV menu.
And, yes: T2 does show up in the MOVIES section of my iTunes account on my iMac and I can watch the movie on my iMac, iPad and iPhone without a problem. This one movie simply does not appear on the 2d gen Apple TV!
Any ideas? Thx for any assistance!

Why Family Share not show up on my MacBook Pro? Help

I am supposed to be part of a Family Share account. I can access Family Share & other family member's purchases on my iPad but NOT on my MacBook Pro that is running Maverick OS. I log into iTunes, click on the drop down window at the top where my name is located but when the window drops down Family Share is not an option nor am I able to see the names of the other family members in the group. I have tried going to "System Preferences" to "iCloud" and then try to look for "Manage Family" but it is not there. Even if I then if after getting to "iCloud" & logging into "Account Details" there is not anything about "Manage Family" or "Family Share"
Can you not participate with Family Share using Maverick OS?
I would REALLY appreciate assistance with this issue.

Hi susieqk,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The reason you are not seeing the Family Sharing account on your MacBook Pro is because Family Sharing requires OS X Yosemite on your computer.

Family Share not working

I've only just discovered this family share option and am trying to set it up on both my son's iPad's and iPod (my old iPhone 4). Each time I try it tells me they can't join as they are already part of the family. They are currently using my iTunes account details, but at the moment all my texts and phone calls are coming through on their devices, something I am trying to stop.
Does anyone know how to get around the needing a credit card to add kids under 13 to your iTunes account? I don't have one, and will not get a credit card just for this purpose, yet I want to try and give them their own iTunes id (as much to stop what's coming through on my phone, coming through onto theirs, as well as making iMessaging and FaceTime possible.
Cheers

Mary,
Having a credit card in order to add a kid to Family Sharing is a legal requirement to validate that you are taking financial responsibility for the purchases of the minor. After the initial setup, you can change to a debit card. But there have been no exceptions to needing the credit card initially (and not for lack of people asking).

TS3322 Photos do not appear in order on apple tv

Synced photos do not appear in order when viewed on apple tv. Shuffle is turned off, have downloaded photos from 2 cameras on computer & saves them in folder, renamed them so they are in correct order but when viewed on apple tv they are not in correct order. Have tried renaming them numerous times & they are not in correct order.

This used to work properly till Nov 2012.
After I upgraded to Ios 6.0.1, this has stopped working

Family share not receiving notification as organiser

I have Iphone 4 and my son who is 12 just got iPod touch. I set up family sharing on his ipod. He is getting notification 'ask to buy" when downloading apps but I as organiser am NOY getting notification. Presume this is because I have iPhone 4. Cannot delete my son from family share as under 13 PLEASE help my son very disappointed he cany download apps or music!!!!

I have the same problem but I am using an iMac as the organizer. My daughters new iPod does prompt her to ask to buy which she clicks ask but I never get notified. I opened a case with support and they said its a known issue they are working on but I have my doubts they will be very helpful.

Family sharing not working for music on Apple TV

We have Family Sharing set up and while we can see each other's purchases in Movies and TV shows we can not see our shared music.
Does anyone know how to view each other's music purchases on the Apple TV?
Thanks

Howdy dnajen1234,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
In searching for shared music with Apple TV I found this.
Which purchased content can I share using Family Sharing - Apple Support
If you turned on Share My Purchases, you can share most content that's also available in iTunes in the Cloud. You can share Music, Movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store. You can also share Books that you downloaded from the iBooks Store, and apps from the App Store. The availability of each content type depends on your country.
There are a few things that you can't share:
Songs added to iTunes Match from outside the iTunes Store
In-App Purchases
Items that are no longer available on the iTunes Store
Items that were hidden
Apps that aren't shareable
If you're on an Apple TV, you can't access shared music.
So it appears there are limits.
Take care,
Nubz

Family sharing not appearing

I updated to Yosemite and still do not have Family Sharing appearing under iCloud system preferences or in iTunes.
Everything on my computer is up to date. I cannot find any help for this when I search on apple webpage.
The only help says I should find it under Apple-System Preferences-iCloud-Manage Family but nothing to do with family sharing is there.

It's fixed. You should be able to see historical purchases. For me, the issue lies in an issue that I don't believe Apple has ever addressed--my itunes/App Store ID predates my icloud ID and Apple has never come out with a tool or process to roll everything into the icloud id. This fixed the issue for me: while my correct itunes ID appeared within itunes/App Store settings and my music/app purchases appeared, I logged out and logged back in. Afterwards, my partner's purchases now appear in both the itunes and app windows. The dual username for those two services has caused me several headaches over the years and I wish there were some way to consolidate them.

Family purchases not appearing post family sharing

My partner and I have activated family sharing, we're both on each other's devices as family and sharing is activated; however neither of our respective purchases appear in the other's itunes or App Store purchase history. I've reset both devices and deactivated/reactivated sharing across both users but it didn't help. Suggestions?

File Shares Not appearing

Good Afternoon,
I have installed/uninstalled arch about ten times in hopes of learning it and have learned quite a lot. And have tried over these past few weeks to avoid the forums as I enjoy the self-satisfaction of that golden google found solution. However, to be to the point, whenever I go to my network places under root or regular user, I cannot see my shared folders or shared printers.
INFO:
My computer: Running Arch Linux and Windows XP connected wirelessly to my router
The Server: Running Windows Server 2003.
I can see the folders, use them perfectly while booted into WinXP but not Arch
Other computers can use files fine.
Server is hardwired to router.
Pictures.
Thank You, Dan.

Now I'm not completely sure if this could be the problem, becuase I don't think you would see the windows network at all if it was, but do you have a samba client installed?
It seems though that smbclient should come in as a second tier dependancy for nautilus. (nautilus depends gvfs which depends on smbclient)
I guess you could also try and access your share w/ smbclient directly, though that might take some man page reading to figure out.

My back button does not work because the prior screen does not appear in the history. I therefore must go back to the blue screen and reload safari. Apple tech support could not help. Can anyone else help?

After I installed mountain lion my back button frequently does not work because the prior screen does not appear iunder History. Apple tech support was not able to fix the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions?

You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.
Seriously? It's physically broken!

I just set up family share, but my kids show up as adults using their existing Apple ids. I want their statis to be child so I can set some parameters. Can this be changed?

I Just set up family share using my children's existing Apple ids. But theit statis show up as adult, is there a way to change this?

No, it's only with family sharing that child accounts can now be created (by the family organiser), you can't change existing accounts to be child accounts. You will either have to keep them with their existing adult accounts, or you can create new child accounts for them : Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support

Family Share Ignoring iTunes Credit

Is anyone else having problems with family share not taking from iTunes credit and changing the admin's credit card instead?

This is happening to us as well. I setup Family Share with my children so we could FINALLY share purchases! However I've never let them purchase apps without an iTunes gift card balance. BUT now that I setup family share, its not using their iTunes credit first. For example: my son has a $21.00 balance in his iTunes account from gift cards. So when he wants to buy an app or song, I get the request, I approve it and it's purchased. However, my debit card is being charged instead of using his iTunes balance first!
Does owns that help explain the issue better?

Change on family share plan without permission; customer service no help at all

@VZWSupport
Posting this question here because I am having zero luck with *611 customer service and after 40 minutes on the phone with a rep I am ready to pay the early termination fee and leave Verizon after 15 years of being a customer.
I am part of a family share plan with five lines. Someone else in the family used my phone upgrade last month (with my permission), and this apparently changed my plan (did not give permission to change plan) but I was not notified that the upgrade was used OR the plan was changed.
Ever since it was first available, I have had unlimited data and have always reupped my plan to keep that unlimited data feature.
Can't email customer service and chat is never available, so I get someone on the phone last week who says they'll request the upgrade back to unlimited and get back to me within 3-4 days.
No response, so I call again today. This rep says that request was not processed, and after FORTY minutes, the outcome is:
* Unlimited data is no longer available so even though my plan was changed without my consent, I lost my unlimited data which I have had for years (I knew it was no longer available, which is why I never let my service lapse, so I could KEEP it)
* The 6GB / $30 consolation prize data package is also no longer available
* No additional data can be added to my plan for the rest of the month, unless I completely change my plan, which will also change the plan on the other four lines that are part of the family share -- not doing that without anyone else's consent
* The family member using my upgrade reset my contract so I'm stuck with this for another TWO full years
* They can add a $30 credit to my bill for next month, just in case I do go over my data
This is the WORST customer service ever. I mean, really. Fifteen years of continuous patronage and this is how we are supported as customers?
I had been debating breaking my line off (and my husband's line) and going onto a new family share plan, just the two of us, and purchasing new phones as well, but frankly, I'm ready to pay the early termination fee and stop doing business with Verizon. I've heard from various friends that after several years of being a customer with AT&T or Sprint, they receive the newest phones for free -- just out of the blue -- or some other amazing promotion for no reason other than being a valued customer.
Let's get this resolved via email, Verizon. If I have to talk to another customer service rep on the phone, it's going to absolutely ruin my day.

Thanks. My main issues are:
I was not notified of the change in plan
I was not notified of the upgrade
My approval was never requested for the device upgrade
My approval was not requested for the change in MY plan
What I am having difficulty accepting here is that unlimited data is no longer "available." I'm not trying to ADD or BUY unlimited data. I'm not even trying to BUY the 6GB data consolation prize that apparently isn't available anymore.
My plan was changed without my consent. My upgrade was applied to another line without notifying me. I'm not trying to add a feature I didn't have before. Doesn't customer service have a reset button? A restore point? I had this service two weeks ago; they changed it without my consent or notifying me; I want it BACK. Not a new add. An account restore to a point two weeks ago. I don't see why this is such a difficult concept.
Not only that, my plan was reupped WITHOUT my consent, when the upgrade was applied to the other line on the account. Now I'm stuck with this contract for two more years, and I did NOT agree to another two years.
They were more than happy to try and sell me two new phones and split our two lines off the family share plan, though. MORE than happy.
Going to have to look into the cost of early termination and really thinking of just paying full price for a phone and going with something like Smart Talk or Virgin Mobile, unless the reps at the store do double backbends to help me out and hook me up after fifteen years of patronage.
I calculated the amount I've spent just on my line, not including my husband's 15-16 years of being a customer, and it's upward of $10,000.
Ten THOUSAND dollars and this is how they treat their customers... smh.
Thanks for the reply, @elector. Appreciate it.
