Change Purchase Sharing preferences in Family Sharing on Mac
On your Mac, use Purchase Sharing preferences in Family Sharing to share purchases with other family members.
Note: To share purchases, family members must be in the same iTunes Store country or region. If a family member changes their iTunes Store country or region, that person might lose access to other family members’ purchases, and installed apps that were shared from other family members might not work. See the Apple Support article Change your Apple ID country or region.
To change these preferences, choose Apple menu 
, then select Purchase Sharing in the sidebar.
