Will a password be required at point of purchase in family sharing?

I have activated family sharing but want to make sure that a password is required each time a purchase is made as when I buy myself.

Is that not for under 18's only??
Correct. "Use these steps to turn Ask to Buy on or off for family members who are under 18* in your family group."
If there is someone in your family sharing group who is over 18 and whose buying habits you do not trust, it would be best to remove them from the group, because you as the Family Organizer are responsible for their purchases.

Icloud password loop when declining an ask to buy purchase using family sharing

My daughter asked to buy an app using family sharing. I received the notification on my phone and when I hit decline, it asks for my icloud password. When entered, it asks continuously and will not finalize declining the purchase. Same process on my wife's phone. We were able to approve a purchase, just not decline one.
Help please.
I am using a 4s, my daughter and wife both have 5cs. All running iOS8 with family sharing set up.

Thank you Ms. SJ!!!!
I was having this problem with my youngest daughters account. Your post about establishing the payment history apart from family sharing made a lot of sense. My oldest daughter has had an account for some time that she had been adding iTunes gift cards to, so her account was "established" before it was added to our family sharing group. I had no trouble approving her purchases.
I had set up an account for my youngest daughter a long time ago, but used it only for email and iMessage on her iPod. My ID was used for purchases on the device. After Family sharing was launched and she got an iPad for Christmas, I decided to set up her ID as the primary account on her new iPad and added her to family sharing.
The first problem I ran into with Family Sharing was enabling the "Ask to Buy" function because since I set up accounts for my daughters a long time ago they were both showing as adults. I learned from another post that the fix for this was to change their birthdates to January 1, 2001. I did this and it has them listed as Age 14 on their family sharing profiles - fine.
I then ran into the same problem with Ask to Buy that David Wilkie described above. My fix was a little different from yours and less intensive.
Removed my youngest daughter from family sharing
Purchased an app using her account alone (with an iTunes gift card attached) to establish a purchase history.
I then re-added her to our family sharing group.
I had her purchase a song using "Ask to Buy" and it worked as expected.
Thanks for going through the legwork with support to find this fix and share it. I hope my experience can be helpful as well.

Will there be a way to merge iCloud accounts for family sharing in iOS 8?

My family of four has 5 Apple IDs. Each of us has a personal one that we use for mail, contacts, and calendars and we all share an Apple ID for use with the iTunes and App Stores. This way, we can all currently share content without having to buy it four times. However, Apple has solved this problem in iOS 8 with family sharing.
My question is how should I handle this with my current lineup of Apple IDs. I know there's currently no way to merge two Apple IDs into one, and I don't want to just transfer my credit card to my personal Apple ID, as I will lose my purchase history. I know I could add my current "shared" ID to our family account in iOS 8, but I'd like not to have a duplicate of myself. Any advice would be appreciated!

It's not necessary to merge the iCloud and iTunes Store accounts. The Family Organizer should use their own iCloud account when setting up Family Sharing. You'll also be asked to supply the iTunes Store account you want to use to share music, movies, apps, etc., with your family during the setup process. It appears Apple has already addressed this common problem.

Will I loose apps and settings if I move to Family Sharing instead of using one Apple ID?

I am looking at setting up Family Sharing. I currently have all of the families devices under my apple ID. If I create new accounts for each member of the family, will they loose all the apps and data on their devices?

Thanks mende1. Would you back up all the devices on itunes first, and then create the family sharing? I have all my kids devices tied to my account and I don't want them to loose all their stuff.
Thanks

When I turned off Find my iPhone, Apple sent me an email saying: I got an email from Apple saying: your Apple ID and password will no longer be required for someone to erase, reactivate, and use your iPhone. I don't understand!

I just turned off Find my iPhone after hearing about the hacking in Australia. I got an email from Apple saying: your Apple ID and password will no longer be required for someone to erase, reactivate, and use your iPhone. Does this mean that anyone can have access to my iPhone? I still have to put my passcode in.

What that means is the activation lock does not operate if you did what you said you did. Bottom line, turn it back on. That will then require anyone trying to use the device to have yoru Apple ID and password.

Connecting to an unknown network when a password is required.

I struggle to connect to an unknown network when a password is required. In settings, there's a tick as if it's connected but it isn't. What am I doing wrong?

- Googling shows that you have to join the network and then open Safari and agree to the terms and conditions and then the connect will be completed.
- Try:
Reset networks settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- Go to Settings>Safari and clearing history, cookies and data

Asking to enter a device password in the access point but I don't have an access point

I installed the Intel Proseet Wireless Client and upon connection to my Linksys router a wizard comes up asking me to "enter the device password to my access point or external registrar". It displays an 8 digit number in the device password field. My only option at that point is to go "back", "next" or "cancel". If I click "next" it eventually fails to connect to my wireless router. I do not have an access point installed. Only the router and cable modem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If its asking you for the Access Point password when you are trying to connect to your Wireless Network, It means you need to input the Wireless Security Key which you have setup on your Router.
When you are trying to connect to your Wireless Network and it ask you for the 8 digit password, you need to Flip your router upside down and below you will find a 8 digit pin number (0000-0000) it will be in these format. Just input the 8digit pin without (-) and click on Next and it will connect you to your wireless network. Once successfully connected to your Network wirelessly you should be able to go online Wirelessly from your Computer.

UserPrincipal.ChangePassword thinks the password does not meet the password policy requirements.

I am working with C# 3.5. My goal is to have a simple program to allow a user change their Active Directory user password via a web page. I have a console application to initially test the commands to active directory and I am running into a problem.
my domains password policy is as follows.
Enforce password history 24 passwords remembered
Minimum password length 7 characters
Password must meet complexity requirements Enabled
Store passwords using reversible encryption Disabled
The error I am getting is "The password does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800708C5)"
I believe the new password I am using does meet the policy requirements and I can't seem to get this program to work. All I want to build is a simple program to allow a user to change their Active Directory user password.
My test code is below.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement;
using System.DirectoryServices;
namespace ActiveDirectoryHacking
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
PrincipalContext adPrincipalContext = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, "192.168.1.26", "OU=Staff,DC=SFdev,DC=org", "John.Doe", "Initial Complex P234dfword");
Console.WriteLine("Validate user {0}", adPrincipalContext.ValidateCredentials("John.Doe", "Initial Complex P234dfword"));
UserPrincipal user = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(adPrincipalContext, "John.Doe");
Console.WriteLine(user.DistinguishedName);
user.ChangePassword("Initial Complex P234dfword", "e$213434sDKS really? www.microsoft.com");
//user.SetPassword("Initial Complex P234dfword");
user.Save();
Console.WriteLine("Press a key to exit.");
Console.ReadKey();
The .SetPassword works if I use a user with Domain Admin access but it appears the John.Doe is unable to change their own password with the .ChangePassword method.
The output until the exception is the following
Validate user True
CN=John Doe,OU=Staff,DC=SFdev,DC=org
I have no clue why any password I select for the new password does not work.

I looked into the password policy and this is what I have learned. There is a major difference between undefined and defined in policies plus making sure the defined policies are set with values that will provide the desired results.
Since this is a development domain and is used for testing I have tweaked the password policy to allow me to develop and test against the domain with a little bit more freedom than a production domain.
I have changed the policy to the following settings.
Enforce password history 0 passwords remembered
Maximum password age 0 days
Minimum password age 0 days
Minimum password length 7 characters
Password must meet complexity requirements Disabled
Store passwords using reversible encryption Disabled
Now, I am able to run my program against the domain testing the password change utility. My error was leaving some of the policy settings as not defined and not understanding what that really means for each setting. For development of a password change utility I need the flexibility to test and the relaxed policy changes allows me to run the program many times without having to work with test data that works around a more restricted policy.

HT201304 If you set restrictions to on for your ipad or iphone & you set the password restriction to immediately for in-app purchases will it ask you for your password every time you make a purchase over a certain time period or just the first time you us

I am setting restrictions on my iphone and my ipad for my four year old son as he somehow purchased an app for $99 unbeknowst to me.
Does anyone know if you set your restrictions to ON, there is a setting that is called "Require Password" and there are two choices to choose from
"immediately" or "15 minutes". What I want to know is if my son asks me to purchase an app that costs $1 and I let him purchase it. Be entering my passcode
will it not ask him for any future purchases or an in-app purchase where they tend to rip you off. I want to ensure that it asks for a password every single time anything is purchased whether it is an in-app purchase or an app. I am unsure what the difference is between choosing immediately or 15 minutes on this specific Restrictions setting. Thank you.

Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>In-App Purchases>Off. Then: Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>Require Password...set this to "Immediately".
Doing the above will accomplish what you want.

I'm in Afghanistan with limited internet options. I have a wifi service plan I am signed up for however, a log in and password are required via browser log in, not a security key attached to the wifi. Please help...

the appletv will not be able to work on it's own
you can use a computer or iphone acting the role of hotspot login using it's browser and getting internet access and then sharing it with the appletv
so the appletv sees it as a wifi router it connects to

I'd wait. What can't you do that you need? You mean you want to buy a new model, then why not wait for an actual new one, not the two year old 5,1, when you need to and have outgrown.
Yours will run Mountain Lion. yours is 4 yrs old and still supported and has life left.

After updating to OS X Mountain Lion, there is a password locked pdf document in the Downloads Stack. Does anyone know what password is required to access this file?

Hello, if your install disk is locked (I assume with FileVault) there is no way to change the password. If it weren't locked there were at least two solutions. As far as I know, the only solutions now are:
- contact your dad
- erase and reinstall the OS X clean
Let us know.

Strange white light appearing when password input required on locked apps!

Strange white light appearing when password input required on specific apps... Locked apps.
It is a thick white line) appearing momentarily on upper left side of my screen.
This only appears briefly as specific apps are opening up .....only on apps where a password is required,(locked apps) like password managers, Apple App Store, etc.
(this is a little troubling… And I'm wondering about the security of my phone now)
I'm using iPhone 5s with latest iOS 7.1 This only started after the latest iOS update!
Although this line appears very briefly, I was able to get some screenshots examples (see links)
[IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/1zo9dt1.jpg[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/260bns8.jpg[/IMG]
Apple has no idea what this is… They're only suggestion was to wipe the phone clean and reinstall from the last backup! If that doesn't work, they would replace the phone.
Before I have to do this, I'm wondering if this could be a phone app doing this, or the iOS or something easily explained/ remedied?
Any ideas?

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Searches and experiments
still not yielded an answer...
