Apple Music not working for family sharing

I have a family plan and invited my daughter to join my family sharing. She accepted but the Apple Music isn’t letting her use Apple Music. I have checked to see if it is on through just my device and it is. What else can I check or do?

Hello Janicep527,


It sounds like your daughter is having trouble using Apple Music with Apple Music. Are you the organizer of the family sharing group? If so, let’s make sure that Apple Music is enabled in Family Sharing. Tap Settings > Your Name > Family Sharing > Apple Music. You should see “On” next to this option. 


If these settings are correct, can you let us know what exactly happens when she attempts to use Apple Music? She may try to sign out of the iTunes Store and then sign back in.

Have a great day!
