I have shared my Apple Music subscription with a family member, but they cannot access the music. What do I need to do?

With a Family Apple Music subscription, everyone gets their own music library. You can share songs that you purchase from the iTunes Store (with or without an Apple Music subscription), but not music that you lease with an Apple Music subscription. You can however share playlists (which are just the names of the songs). For more info, see:
