How to stop family sharing on my apple id

Family share is now on, which requires a credit card. I want to remove the card info and use cash gift cards from apple. Family does not allow cash nor paypal. So no family sharing for me. How do I turn it OFF.

How To Use Family Sharing on one Apple ID ?

OK....I like the new family sharing but I got around this in past in creative way.
I have one AppleID that whole family uses.....no iCloud, only use ITunes to Sync, and on each iPhone or iPad for Text & Facetime I disable in settings all but that phone # and/or email for that user. Obviously all the emails for the family are loaded/verified in my Apple ID.
For payment I had no Credit Card on account but bought the kids iTunes gift cards.
I'm trying to avoid having to setup a bunch of Apple ID accounts.
I'm hoping I can get best of both worlds........but have not upgraded any device to iOS8 yet so have not tried.
I'd like to keep the single AppleID, load in Credit Card info, go to Share and invite the other family members, set restrictions, etc.
However, my question is will/how does the "invite" work if all members are listed under same Apple ID ?
Thx.

How to setup Family Sharing iOS 8

Ok, here's a scenario that I'm sure many people will currently be in - a central Apple ID for purchasing App Store items that is shared between family members, and individual Apple ID's for each family member for email, calendar, contacts etc.
With ios8 family sharing how do you setup so that everyone can still access shared apps from the original "shared I'd" but also operate under family sharing with individual Apple id's?
Example, say we use the Apple id [email protected] as the current shared ID which has all books, music, apps purchased and has a current store credit balance. This one is setup as the AppStore ID on each device. Each family member then has setup as their icloud Apple id a personal Apple id such as [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] for email, contacts, iMessage etc.
I'm assuming the organiser becomes [email protected] but if that is on my device, can I still invite my own [email protected] on that same device to retain access to my emails, contacts, iMessage etc ?
Sounds as though Apple has done the right thing for new setups, but not necessarily covered existing users who followed their previous options - which came with its own shortcomings.
Please help

Hello,
It should be in Settings > iCloud and right underneath your iCloud account at the top, there should be an option to setup Family Sharing. Then it is following the steps outlined. Take a look at the page below for everything on setting up Family Sharing and also creating an account for child that is under 13. I have aslo provided an image of where it should be located under your iCloud account.

HT201081 how to disable family sharing and remove credit card

I updated all of out Apple mobile devices and set up Family Sharing. I thought this would be a great idea. Quickly I was proven wrong. I liked the idea of linking my wife's account and mine, and the ability to add my kid as a child under my account (with his own itunes account). The ability for each account to be linked was convenient, but my problem, and many others I have seen posting online, is it being necessary to leave the credit card on file. Second is the premissions setting. This again is a good theory, but with children and their always wanting new games and other apps, it quickly became inconvenient to have to give permission to download even a FREE app. So here is what I would like. The option to add the ability to download free apps, and request permission for purchasing apps. If this in not possible, than the ability to completely disable family sharing, thus allowing me to remove my credit card info from the iTunes system and prevent unwanted purchases.
If anyone has any suggestions on disabling the family sharing I would greatly appreciate it.

Direct from the iPhone User Guide.
“Leave Family Sharing. Go to Settings > iCloud > Family, then tap Leave Family Sharing. If you are the organizer, go to Settings > iCloud > Family, tap your name, then tap Stop Family Sharing. For more information, see support.apple.com/kb/HT201081.”

HT4914 How does the family sharing allow members to share music in iTunes Match?

Same as title, How does the family sharing allow members to share music in iTunes Match?

Yes, you can stream or transfer music ripped from CDs to other computers via Home Sharing.

Need advice on how to best approach Family Sharing, multiple devices, Apple IDs, etc.

My wife and I both have iPhone 5's (soon to be 6's) running iOS 8, I have an iPad (v2) running iOS 8, and my wife just got a MacBook Air (running Mavericks, soon to be Yosemite). We also have Apple TV (v2) running the latest OS. That's five Apple devices shared between a husband and wife (not counting my two-year-old's unsupported iPhone 4 used for kid games).
We have always just used the same Apple ID for everything. However, things are changing fast. We have both upgraded to iOS 8, we will soon be getting iPhone 6's, she now has a MacBook Air that will soon support Continuity, and we will purchase iCloud Drive storage for our iPhone 6's to free up photo/video storage space from our phones. We need to rethink and reorganize how we manage these devices because my wife does not want my email, iMessages, contacts, or Safari bookmarks showing up on her new MacBook, but she would like to use the upcoming Continuity feature.
In the perfect world, we would like the following: We would like to have separate: 1) email, 2) iMessages, 3) contacts, 4) Safari bookmarks, and 5) photos/videos. But we would like to have access to: 1) each others' backed up photos and videos stored on the new iCloud Drive, 2) iTunes, App Store, and iBooks Store purchases, and 3) a shared family calendar.
Right now, using the same Apple ID on all five devices, we are able to successfully do all of the above by setting up different email accounts on each device, by designating different phone numbers and email addresses on each device, etc. However, when my wife set up her new MacBook Air this morning, she told it to import Contacts from the Apple ID, but it looks like it imported everything from an old iCloud backup of my device. How can my wife totally integrate and sync her own iPhone and MacBook Air without getting the bookmarks, contacts, etc. from my iPhone? Is there a way to do this, whether through same/different Apple IDs, the new Family Sharing mechanism, or a combination of both? Any considerations or advice that I am not thinking of?
Thanks so much,
New At This
PS - I am very computer literate and can implement complicated solutions if necessary, but I am not familiar with any cross-device sharing options or even the OS X interface at all.

here's a mockup of sorta what I'm going for:

Family sharing with multiple apple ids

Just a question about family sharing. My husband and I have decided to have separate apple ids but family sharing allows us to share purchases but does this also include iCloud storage or do we each have 5GB. Also if we do this route with our son what happens to his purchases we've approved when he decides he doesn't want to be on family sharing when he's 18.

Hi Nat8506,
Happy Holidays! I've included complete information for Family Sharing below, but to answer your specific questions:
Each Apple ID has it's own 5 GB of iCloud Storage
Once you son turns 18, if he decides to leave the Family Sharing, any purchases made with his Apple ID will remain his and no longer available to the family.

What happens to your content when you stop sharing?
When you leave Family Sharing, your Apple ID is removed from the family group, and you stop sharing music, movies, TV shows, books, and apps with any remaining family members. In addition, any photos, calendars, and reminders shared by the family group will be removed from your devices. If you chose to share your location, you'll stop sharing your location with other family members, and your devices will be removed from the family Find My iPhone device list.
Any content that your family shared with you isn't automatically removed from your device. You can purchase it again or remove it to free up space on your device. If you downloaded an app from a family member’s purchase history and made In-App Purchases, you'll need to purchase the app yourself to access your In-App Purchases.
Any DRM-protected music, movies, TV shows, books, or apps that you previously downloaded from other family member's collections will no longer be usable, and other family members won't be able to use content downloaded from your collection. Learn more about Digital Rights Management (DRM) in iTunes for Mac or iTunes for Windows.
You'll keep any purchases you initiated while part of the family group. However, if the organizer was paying for your iCloud storage or any other ongoing subscriptions, you'll need to start paying for them yourself using a valid payment method on your account. Learn how to add a credit or debit card to your iTunes Store account.

Help using family sharing and separate apple id's

My husband and I are currently using the same Apple ID and I would like to separate our devices by creating a new apple ID for one of us. What is the best way to do this? Will family sharing make this easier? I am not using family sharing currently. I want to make sure that the user with the new Apple ID doesn't lose everything.

Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library. Note that once done you cannot "share" apps under a single Apple ID. Each of you must purchase your own apps under your own Apple ID. When you decide to split up like this one of you will need to re-purchase the apps that they want to use.
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.

Family Sharing on the Apple TV 3

I Have multiple apple products, of which are some apple tv's. until a few days ago all the devices were using the same Apple ID which was mine. We recently decided to use separate Apple id's for our family members, and using family sharing among the devices.
The problem/concern I have since enabaling family sharing is that my iTunes movie purchases on the Apple TV no longer has an "all movies" option, and instead has a "shared movies" option right below the "recent purchases".
my first question is, what is what happened to the "all movies" category? I found this option very helpful and useful. Sure all my iTunes movie purchases are still categorized by genre. I liked how the "all movies" showed how many movies I have purchased, and I kinda enjoyed looking through all the movies to find one to watch.
My second question is, how can I get that option back whilee still using family sharing?

AppleTV 2 and 3's main icon Music section is a shambles.
There should be a Music store as there was on AppleTV1. Crazy you can't access Purchases unless subscribed to itunes Match.
As Winston says you are probably not looking in the correct place for local streaming of your music library.

Family Sharing / Delete child apple ID

On this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT201081
It is mentioned that :
“Children under 13 can't be removed from a family. If you need to, you can transfer the child to another family or delete their Apple ID.”
How can I delete their apple ID ?

Hi Jastect,
In order to edit an Child Apple Id you can just go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and log as your daughter and edit all data (except id itself and birthdate). This is possible only if you know the password :-) even without knowing, the recovery procedure is working fine.
In my case:
- I created an Child apple ID (as described in Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids), child is -13y
- As mentioned in Leave Family Sharing : "Children under 13 can't be removed from a family. If you need to, you can transfer the child to another family or delete their Apple ID". ok, fair enough. Then I want to delete the id... But I cannot find where the delete option is available ???
Hopefully someone can help.

How to use family sharing when already sharing the same iCloud account

My wife and I started separate iTunes account many years ago, and thus made many purchases on each account. Some time later we started using iCloud, and when we did, we decided we wanted to share the same iCloud account so my wife, for example, could add entries in the Notes app and I'd be able to see them, and vise versa. In addition, we have another iPhone for our daughter, and with that she has her own iCloud account in use on her phone, however, she is signed into my iTunes account on her phone (so her/my purchases were on the same iTunes account, namely mine).
Now, years later, Family Sharing came along and I'm trying to figure out how I can also make that work with the iTunes and iCloud setup we currently have. My hope, with the Family Sharing feature, is that my wife's purchases (on her iTunes account) and my purchases on my iTunes account would be able to be shared. That said, how should I go about setting up Family Sharing such

sounds like you only need to share with the other account that your daughter used. the same id in icloud on wifes devie is fine. this article will help. Sharing purchased content with Family Sharing - Apple Support Peace, Clyde

How to disable Family Sharing

Tried to set up Family Sharing for wife and two kids. Disaster. Everyone is locked out for 364 days.
How can I disable Family Sharing?
I do not want my purchased content locked up in some Apple beta test.

Can't I just back out of this Family Sharing debacle and go back to sharing the previous way that worked fine? Just have everyone in the family use the same AppleID.
