Family members can't see playlists in music

That's cute. Just because you highlight a headline from an article and make it bigger doesn't mean it's true.

I did read AND follow the directions. Still no help. I have two playlists that I made before I signed up for Apple Music and when I "go to the drop down list to find 'share playlist'" (as you can see from the screenshot)...it isn't there.

So, I still have the same issue. I cannot share playlists that I created before signing up with Apple Music. As I said before, I could not do it before I signed up with Apple Music either, that's why I signed up with them (because I read the headline you quoted). If I am missing something, someone enlighten me. I'm not an idiot. I've been with Apple since the mid-nineties, I don't go and rant on forums until I have exhausted everything I know how to do and read all of the articles I can find.

Also, those playlists do not show up on my phone either and I'm the one who created them with my computer with the same Apple ID. I've tried everything. I've signed out of my Apple ID and signed back in. I've re-authorized my computer, I've restarted my phone so many times and so many other things that I'm not going to list them all here and I still have the same issue.

So tell me again how I shouldn't be ranting.

No, I didn't because as I said I already have a playlist curated from my own library. I don't really want to spend the time to duplicate a playlist of 6,300 songs using music from Apple Music. I used to be able to make my own playlists with my own music and put them on MY phones with MY computer using iTunes, but I guess Apple wasn't making enough money that way.
