Tell you what, I will give a plug and say you can read all about family sharing in Mr Mosen's book, "iOS 8 Without The Eye", which you can purchase from
www.mosen.org
he probably does a better job at describing this anyway smile.

the organiser had any veto over were family members under 18? So the
organiser has to be very trusting or generous? Or have I got this all
wrong? Harry

Right. But I guess the new feature is that all purchases can now be
shared between all Apple IDs set up within the family sharing group.
The other new feature is if one of the members makes a purchase and
they do not have sufficient credit or a credit card on file with
Apple ID, the organizer approves or rejects each purchase.

Hi there the kind of set up you have is basically what I have done
with my children. My own Apple ID is what has been used to purchase
apps. So for all intents and purposes, their devices are my devices.
They have their own Apple IDs for things like iCloud face time and
messages so that those will be individual to them. Because of doing
it like this for many years, this new family and friends sharing
feature of iOS 8 is nothing really new to me. I don't see what the
difference is when compared to what people are already doing like
what I described and like what you described.

A question I have is my wife and I have multiple I-devices. Her
iPhone, iPad
Air and my iPhone 5. All these devices are set up with my ID. She
has her
own Apple ID, but only uses it to sign into Facetime and iMessages,
her own
Kindel  account and so on for example.
I've always just backed up the devices on my computer as she
doesn't even
have iTunes installed on her computer. The only thing we ever buy
are apps.
So if we wanted to set up Family Sharing with me as the admin, how
is that
going to work? Is it as simple as signing out of the app store on her
devices and her signing back in with her ID or is she going to have
to start
from scratch and sync through her computer? All devices are still
on iOS
7.1.2. Would it be best for her just to do the iOS 8 update over
the air
instead of me setting it up through iTunes on my PC as I've always
done.
I have another family member with a similar situation. As in having
their
iPad Mini under my ID.

If you can share subscriptions then I haven't found a way either. I
have an
iTunes Match subscription which expires next week, not too bothered
about it
though as didn't suit my needs, I prefer storing music both locally
and in
the cloud in case my internet ever goes offline.

Sounds downright awesome.  Now that this is known, the phone will
be updated
in the near future, and the apps will be added.  Thanks for this.

They sure can. They would go to the purchased section as normal.
Here
they will see an extra section called for example Christopher's
purchases. If they tap or double tap on that they can download
what I
have purchased. Very neat!

What if I want to buy them an app for Christmas without their
knowledge?

   Chris,



   Family sharing is so you can see the purchases of another family
member and he/she can see yours. You have to add one first. It will
all be
on one credit card. You will be able to download each other's apps
and music
for free. I guess there is also a calendar that you can share.

   I just upgraded to IOS 8.  Can someone please explain what is
family
sharing, and how does it work?

   Thanks for any help,
