Q: App requests from iCloud Family member
Hi,
Made the colossal mistake of buying my daughter an iPod Touch 5th (iOS 9.3.5) for her birthday and setting her up as a family member in iCloud, so any app she wants to download (and God, there are so many of them) has to be approved by me. Not a smooth process.
First of all, my daughter, for some reason, is required to enter her AppleID twice in succession in order to request the app. Can anyone suggest why?
Then, her app requests don't seem to be coming through to my Mac (MacBook Pro 2011, OS X 10.10.5). I can approve apps in person on her iPod Touch, but I've got fat, old fingers and it's a profound annoyance. I can't see any requests cached anywhere - Notification Centre, for example - and my daughter has to repeatedly request the apps.
I'd be very grateful for any suggestions. Thanks.
MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), 2.2GHz i7, 16GB RAM, SSD
