Family Sharing - restricting content for the kiddos

Is there a way to setup some type of content or rating restrictions on our kids devices when sharing apps, music, etc with the entire family?  While most of our music is clean, and apps are appropriate, it would be nice if we can rating-restrict (or restrict by "E" in music) some of our content while allowing the good stuff to be used by the young ones.
Anyone have any idea on how/if this can be done?  Thanks in advance.
Chris

    I have 2 iPhones sharing an apple ID (mine and my partner). we have just created separate ID's now that family sharing is available. but the partner's ID wouldn't let her update apps purchased on my ID! Help Please

    This is happening to me also but only with certain apps. The message I get with the apps that won't update is "Update Unavailable with This Apple ID. This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled".

  • Does family sharing allow content not purchased through itunes?

    Most of my music has been ripped from my CDs, not purchased through itunes. The family sharing feature in ios8 sounds tempting since I currently have 4 of us working from a single account which causes some issues at times. Will I still be able to share the ripped CDs and other content not purchased from itunes with other family members if we split up and then turn on family sharing?
    Thus far, the 5S that just arrived today is the only device with ios8 on it. The other iphones and ipads in the house will need to be updated when it seems safe to do so. We are also running itunes on two macbook pros and a few PCs.

    Yes, home sharing works with both purchased and ripped music, as well as videos.  It does not allow you to move content from one computer to another; it allows you to stream content from one computer to another computer or device on the local network (or connected via a VPN).
    If you want to access music outside of your network and copying it is a problem, then you might consider Match.

  • Family sharing keep asking for payment account

    Hello,
    I want to family share my iCloud account.
    Using my macbook pro 15 retina with latest yosemite, first asked for a payment account so i created a clickandbuy account and already used it for payments in the itunes store. now if i want to turn in family sharing it ask for a activated payment account and links me to the itunes store where i already set everything and can't accept anything because its already done, if i try again the same happends again and again both on ipad air 2 and iphone 6 plus.

    The issue seems to have resolved itself, I assume the issue was a glitch on Apple's end.

    Hi..I recently bought an IPAD and I absolutely love it.  I have been Skyping w/my family during this deployment for the past two weeks until yesterday.  The camera on my side just stopped working.  I am able to see my family.  Any help.

    Try closing the Camera/Skype app:
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal the Task Bar
    2. Hold down the Camera/Skype app for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen
    If the above doesn't solve the problem, do a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

  • Creating content for the iBooks store

    Where can I find out about creating content for the iBookstore? Is this store open to individuals like the app store is? Thank you for any help you can offer.

    Sorry, no, I don't know how a company signs up with the iBookstore. I've not seen Apple say anything. I can only presume that either Apple approached the largest of the existing aggregators as they did the large book publishers, or those aggregators contacted Apple and were able to get to someone within Apple, but who that person might be I don't know.

  • No shared library found for the database with ID DBID

    Hi SDN,
    We're trying to connect our BW system under WIN/MSSQL 2005 to an source system (RSA1) witch is an DATABASE DB4 on OS400.
    when we check the database connection, it gave us the error
    No shared library found for the database with ID DBID
    in SM21 we've found
    As well as the standard connection, an attempt was made to set up
    another database connection, under the specified ID. The Shared Library
    for this second database could not be found.
    The Shared Library is usually found in the the Executable
    directory (profile parameter DIR_LIBRARY) under the name dbs
    <dbs>slib<os_ext>. <dbs> stands for the database type and <os_ext>
    stands for the operating system-specific extension of the Shared
    Libraries.
    The database type is determined from the entry that corresponds to the
    specified DB ID in the table DBDCON. Check whether the data in this
    entry is correct.
    someone can guide me were to found DBSL library for this time of external connection from Windows to DB4?
    thanks in advance,
    best regards,

  • How do you add an iTunes Gift Card so that all purchases of any members of a Family Sharing Group can use the credit?

    How can all family members of a Family Sharing Group use a gift card that has been been applied to the iTunes master account? I added a gift card to our master iTunes account for my grandson, and even though he's a family sharing group member, none of the purchases I have approved from his requests have used the gift card credit. A search of the iTunes support site failed to turn up anything that even remotely addresses this topic. It would seem reasonable to assume that any purchase made by any family member should be able to use the gift card credit since all purchases go through the master account, but this does not appear to be the case.

    Regarding your statement about the gift card balance being used if redeemed to the organizers account - http://www.apple.com/feedback.
    Regarding redeeming the gift card to the child's account, it is the same as redeeming to yours.  You have to be signed in to the iTunes store using the child's apple ID, then redeem the gift card there.  If you already redeemed the card on your ID, you won't be able to redeem it again.

  • 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

  • Can family sharing be used for apps bought on PC iTunes or ios6?

    We have various (free and paid) apps bought either on iTunes for PC, or on an older iPod Touch running ios6.  Will these apps be available on other iDevices if I set up Family Sharing on an iPad running ios8?  Can the PC or older iPod Touch be linked to the primary account for Family Sharing?

    If the app, book or movie was purchased by a member of the family, the content is available to all members of the family. You have one person that is the head of the family, provides the credit card. Any other family members purchase content such purchases must be approved by the head of the family.

  • Family Sharing and iTunes for Windows

    My wife and I have family sharing set up and working fine across iOS devices and my macs.  She uses iTunes for windows and we can't find how to access my purchases on her machine.  We looked in the same place it is in iTunes for Mac and there is no place to drop down and look at the other users stuff.

    @TigerFrank, not sure whether you got your answer but for any reason if you haven't then here are the steps to see the purchases from all the family shared accounts in your iTunes for Windows...
    Once you're in iTunes, you see your account name on the top, on the right side of the Apple logo.  There is a little pointing down arrow, click on it
    on the opened up menu, click on Family Purchases
    on the Family Purchases window, on the top left you see your Name with the little pointing down arrow, click on it again
    on the opened up menu, select the account you want to download the music from.
    That is how you do it, because I just learned about it and thought I would share the information so that others also get benefited from it.  Hope, this helps...

  • Restrictions block for the store?

    Hello,
    I was just wondering if there was a way to get passed the restrictions block for apps and itunes on my ipod touch as i cannot remember the password?
    Its been locked for a while now as I didnt want anyone to buy any apps as I have a very young family but now they have matured I have wanted to buy songs and apps but I was unable to since I counld not remember the pass word?

    Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • Family sharing approval screen for iCloud storage is blank

    I have family sharing set up with my spouse and kids, and both me and my spouse are set as approvers.  We all have iOS 8.0.1.
    My daughter needs to purchase an iCloud storage plan.  She's able to pick the plan, enter her iTunes account's password, and gets the pop-up saying that her parents will be asked.
    We then get the notification pop-up on both parents' devices (iPhone 4s and iPad 4).  But on our devices, when we click on the notification, a dialog box comes up that takes up most of the screen but is empty.  The only thing is a Cancel link in the upper left.  So we can't approve or reject anything.
    Any ideas?

    (In my original post, a correction, all devices were 8.0)
    I Upgraded all devices to 8.0.2.  Then initiated a purchase of music in iTunes on my daughter's phone.  The approval worked, although I had to enter the iTunes password several times on both ends, which was annoying. I was then able to do a storage upgrade purchase.
    So, I'm not sure what actually fixed it.  I think it may have been complicated by the fact that, I originally had my credit card associated (also) on my daughters Apple id account, and removed it (since family sharing made it unnecessary).
