how to share storage across entire family?

Hi,

I have a family of four with 3 iPads, 2 iPhones, 1 iMac, 1 PC laptop and 2 Apple ID accounts.

How can I share all our media (photos, media, docs) across all accounts to make it easier to manage/edit/view, including sharing storage on iCloud?

Right now I use Google cloud storage which does fine but it loses SloMo videos during the upload process. If Apple storage were similar in price and worked on all devices under a single account I would use it in a heartbeat.

Thanks,

Ryan

Greetings Whimpy,

After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to share account content with another Apple ID. You may also want some iCloud information. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

Family Sharing makes it easy for up to six people in your family to share each other’s iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases without sharing accounts.
