WhenI turn on family sharing and invite others (who accept the invitation), no family album appears for anyone in their Photos' Shared Albums for either the iMac w/OS v.11.5.2 or the iPhone w/IOS v.14.7.1. What am I doing wrong?

My invitees have access to my iCloud storage, so at least that part is working. There is no specific listing to share photos in the Family Sharing panel of either the Mac System Preferences or the iPhone Settings/Apple ID settings.


While the Family album should automatically populate, users may still need to enable Shared Albums for iCloud to be able to see this album. From the article below, Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Photos, then turn on Shared Albums. Have each member of the family complete this step.


We made a Tech Support visit to our local Apple Store and were told that Family Share albums no longer populate and that a Shared Album, as you mention above, is the only option left for sharing photos. Parenthetically, purchased songs added to our iTunes Library cannot be shared using Family Sharing either. Both types of sharing have been discontinued since the creation of the Apple Music Service. Now we can only share Apple Music with a family music plan.


OK, so not sure what you mean. How, exactly, did you "sign up for a Family Sharing iCloud plan"? You can set up Family Sharing, and then if you purchase at least a 200GB iCloud plan, you can invite other family members to share the iCloud storage in your plan.


Family Sharing is set up and you invite people to join. iCloud Storage Family Sharing is a separate service that you can use or you don't have to use, just like Apple Music Family Subscription. These are additional services that you can sign up for under the Family Sharing plan.


But the Family album under the Shared Albums should be there whether you use the iCloud Storage sharing or not. Once you successfully set up Family Sharing, you should immediately see the Family album under the Shared albums. It is not the first album in the group, and on a Mac, depending on how many shared albums you have, it can be really buried.


So when you are going through your photos, have a think about the album too, and what sort of layout you might want. Once you have the photos you want to include it can be a good idea to separate the images into folders, for example, particular holidays, events, time of year. This will save you time later on.


Having said all that, images can also be striking when sat against a plain background page, creating a more classic and understated look so that whatever your style there is always a way to make your photos pop, and your book totally customised. You can see examples of a plain background page in the images to the left and right above.
