Hello dwborger,


From your post it appears you are trying to add a family member to Apple Music. The article you came from, What types of content can I share with my family?, explains what content is eligible for sharing. This does include an Apple Music family subscription.


Take a look at the steps outlined here: Get an Apple Music family subscription - Apple Support


If you have any issues, if you post exactly what you are seeing, someone here may be able to help.


Have a good day.

If Family Sharing is set up, then everyone in your family group should have access to Apple Music if you have a Family Subscriptions.


To confirm the type of Apple Music subscription you have, open the Music app. Tap on Listen Now, then tap the icon in the upper right corner of the screen. Tap Manage Subscription. If Family is selected, then all members of the family group should be able to access it. Follow the steps on this page to subscribe: Get an Apple Music family subscription - Apple Support


If you are trying to add another member to the family group, then follow the steps outlined below depending on which device is being used:


Add family members to a Family Sharing group on Mac - Apple Support

Add or remove members from your Family Sharing group on iPhone - Apple Support


Keep in mind that the family organizer is the only one who can add members.


Have a good day.
