How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?
Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when. Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb. I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!) We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
* Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
* Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
* And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
* CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
share our calendar
share our contacts
share a family notes
msgs/facetime for each member
mom: iphone, ipad, imac
dad: iphone
kid1: iphone, macbook
kid2: ipad
kid3: ipad
Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness. Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.
