This itunes account is setup to use family sharing with a different icloud account

I am doing the Family Sharing with my sister. When she tried to download from my purchased on her ipad, she got error massage as the title said...and couldn't see my list of purchased. Can someone help on this?
We are using our individual itune,apple ,and Icloud accounts.

Yeah - not sure why that is happening only for Apps. Might be best for you to give Apple Support a call. You are still within your 90-day period, so the support will be free of charge. Here's the link - just follow the prompts and it will take you to a page where you can set up a call:

  • Another "This itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different icloud account than Apple ID "

    I saw another thread on the matter but thought I would post because the circumstances are different. Here is how it happened.
    I have had an Apple Store account for years and until recently our family has only had our one Mac and my iPhone 4. Thus any purchases we have made on the Apple App Store were made only with this account.
    We recently purchased two iPhone 5S's--one for my wife and one for my daughter. Neither had Apple IDs so first we set up my wife's iPhone and created an Apple ID for her. Next we used the Family Sharing feature to set up an account for our "under age 13" daughter.
    Because I am still waiting for my iPhone 6 Plus to arrive, and because the iPhone 4 cannot upgrade to iOS 8, and because my Apple ID is the only account with any apps that have been purchased in prior years, I set up my wife as the Family Organizer but when I set up her account, I chose the option to "share purchases from a different account" and entered the information for my Apple ID.
    My daughter is able to view my prior purchases on her iPhone, but when my wife tries to view my prior purchases, she receives the message "This iTunes account is set up to use Family Sharing with a different iCloud account than <her Apple ID>."
    I hope Apple is reading this. I would be more than willing to help them on this one as this feature is one of the main reasons I put our family on iPhones.

    I had this problem. I finally figured it out yesterday. Try this:
    On the device that is having trouble seeing purchases, go to Settings>iCloud>Family Sharing> Then tap on the user of the device you are on. Under "Family Purchases" make sure it has the AppleID of the person for that device. Mine originally had my husbands AppleID in there (he is the Organizer), but I changed it to mine. That doesn't make it so that the purchases are under me. The purchases remained under my husband, but my ID had to be in this spot for it to work.
    After that, I closed settings, then I went to Settings>iTunes and App Store> click on the AppleID and Sign Out, even if it has the right AppleID in there. Then Sign In again using the AppleID of the person on that device. Again-- even if it has the right ID in there to start, still sign out and back in.
    See if they show up. If they don't show up still, try doing a restart (hold down power button and home button until it restarts).
    They should show up by then, but if they don't, at that point, try to go into iCloud and Sign Out and back in.
    I think the key is having the right ID in "Family Purchases". I hope this works for you.

  • "this itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account"

    I set up an iCloud family. Until now, everyone had their own iCloud account, and we had a separate iTunes ID (not an iCloud e-mail address) that all of our purchases were made under.
    So, I set up that Apple ID as the master account and added everyone's personal iCloud accounts as members.
    Then, I went into iTunes prefs and logged in as my iCloud account.
    When I go to the App store and go to Purchased, it says:
    "this itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account than <my iTunes Apple ID>." Then there is a Learn More link that takes me to my iCloud and shows my family group with the same Apple ID as the organizer.
    Does anyone have any idea what happened to cause it to think that I am not in the same family group?
    Thanks.

    Update...I now notice:
    Going to: App Store>Updates>Purchases:
    1)  The message “This iTunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account other than <her iCloud ID>...”  Is now showing up on my iPhone and can no longer see any of my purchases or hers. 
    2) The same message above is now showing on my iPad mini (it didn’t before).  But, I can still see both hers and my purchases on my iPad mini. 
    3) The message "This iTunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account other than <my iCloud ID>…” still showing on her iPhone and she still can’t see her or my purchases.
    iTunes Family Sharing still works fine.
    Note: If I Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store then log out of my Apple ID, then go to App Store>Updates>Purchases and log into my Apple ID from there, My purchases show up (not hers). I then toggle between Updates and Purchases and the message pops up and unable to see any purchases, again.  Same thing happens when I do it to her phone except her purchases show up (not mine).
    I emailed this update to Apple...waiting for a reply.

  • How do I use Home Sharing with two different apple accounts?

    How do I use Home Sharing with two different apple accounts?

    Morning Saintine,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Home Sharing enables you to stream or transfer music, movies, TV shows, apps, and more among up to five authorized computers in your household. To do so, you will need to Turn on Home Sharing on each computer using the same Apple ID.

  • I just bought a macbook pro and want to use my own iCloud account for my iPhone. How do I sign off of the current account on my iPhone and sign in with my own iCloud account?

    I just bought a macbook pro and want to use my own iCloud account for my iPhone. How do I sign off of the current account on my iPhone and sign in with my own iCloud account i set up my mac?

    On your phone, Go to "Settings", "iCloud", scroll to the bottom and "sign out."  Assuming you have the the account password/security info of the current account, it will delete everything iCloud related upon your approval (don't worry, everything will remain in the cloud.)  Once signed out, in the same settings location (under "Settings", "iCloud") sign in using your Apple ID and Password.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can i use family sharing in 2 different countries?

    I currently live in the China, but my son lives in the US. We want to use family sharing together but apparently we have to use the same credit card. And frankly I can't use an American card on a Chinese account or a Chinese card on an American account. Is there anyway we can share our purchases?

    According to Family Sharing - multiple countries ??? , no, we can't, and because of the different availability of content across different countries, it is unlikely that this will be possible in the near future.

  • Apple Pay Setup with 2 Different iCloud Accounts?

    Hello,
    I have 2 different iCloud Accounts.
    One (my main account) in Canada.
    The other one in the United States.
    I am with citi bank in the US.
    Can I setup Apple Pay on my iPhone 6 with the US iCloud, but keep my main Canadian iCloud account as the main account to sync everything (contacts, bookmarks, calendars, etc) without the US account interfering.
    i.e. I would only want to use my US account to setup Apple Pay.
    Thanks,
    Nicolas

    Hi Nicolas ....
    I understand what you are trying to do but only one iCloud account is allowed per device.
    Apple Pay is only works in the United States.

  • Can i use home sharing when two different apple accounts are on the same computer?

    will home sharing work when two iTunes Libraries are on the same computer?

    Can you be more clear about what you mean. More detail please.
    Is this the solution you are looking for?
    Log in to both user accounts and launch iTunes. Turn on Home Sharing from the 'Advanced' menu at the top of the screen.
    Leave iTunes running and use Fast User Switching to switch between user accounts. You will notice that each user's library of media is available to the other user and you can copy media from the other user to the current user's account.

  • Recently created a new iCloud account, but want to use my previous iCloud email address (created with a different iCloud account)... help needed!!

    Guys,
    I hope you can help me out on this, but I have a problem...
    A few years ago I created an iCloud account on my old iPhone 4S.
    Back then, I used an email address for iCloud registration that's no longer active.
    Anyway, I also made an iCloud email address back then.
    - Now I have a brand new iPhone 5S (totally love it)... and I just created an iCloud acccount with an other email address than I used back at the time I had my old 4S.
    But... now I would like to use the same 'old' iCloud email address that I used on my previous 4S iCloud account.
    Since that previous iCloud account is linked to an email address that no longer exists, I don't know how to do this!!
    Can someone please help??

    Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
    Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account.

  • HT4865 my ipad was sync with other icloud account. i tried to delete the account to be able to sign in with my own icloud account. but i cannot delete it because i dont know the password of the other account what can i do?

    how can i sign in with my icloud account without entering the password of the other account?

    Sorry kokorokok,
    You are going to need the iCloud ID and password of the previous sign on in order to delete the account:
    Removing Previous Owner from Device
    All the steps in the link above must be followed in order for you to get your iCloud ID signed onto your device.

  • Can I use two computers with the same Icloud account

    Hello. I want to sync icloud to 2 different computers (Win 7). I have a computer at work and at home, and wonder if it is possible to synchronize Outlook calendars from both computers with the same icloud account

    Hello again.
    I've tried to sync with 2 pc. Took a backup of everything first, on pc nr 1. Deleted the contents of the browser and Outlook on the PC nbr 2. Then synced up to icloud. works great.

  • Any way to sync icalendar across 4 different iphones, each with a different icloud account?, Any way to sync icalendar across 4 different iphones, each with a different icloud account?

    Basically the subject describes my question. Any way to sync icalendar across 4 iphones? so each of us could access the app, change an event time, location, etc. and it would edit across all 4 devices. Any pointers would be super helpful. thanks

    You can share an iCloud calendar. Easiest way... log into icloud.com from a browser on your computer. Go to the calendar. Create a calendar to share. Click the little wifi-looking sharing icon next to the calendar name, invite the people you want to share it with, and Bob's your uncle.

  • Can I use 1 computer with 2 different iTunes accounts and devices? We're afraid we're going to wipeout one library or the other if we do??

    My son got an iPhone and wanted his own iTunes account. Now his computer died, and he wants to connect to his iTunes account on my computer. When it asks to sync the computer, a message comes up and we're afraid either his or my library are going to be wiped out by trying to do this. Is it possible to use 1 computer with 2 different iTunes accounts and devices without wiping out one of the libraries? Thanks for any info.

    If the content was not originally purchased/synced to the device from your computer it will erase and replace the content from the device with that of the computer. If you have content that you want to backup you can transfer purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848 check this link out

  • 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.
