Apple Music works over Family Sharing on iPhone, but not on Macs

Hello,

I have a problem. Once added to family, Apple Music works fine on the iOS phone. However it does not work (tries to put me into a free month subscription) on MacOS Apple Music app.

I see the same behaviour on Mac OS 11.6.6 and 12.4.

Actions taken so far:

signing off from Apple Music account and on again
removing and adding back family share
combination of above
adding/removing computer as a device for playing Apple Music

What else ?

Thank you,

Mario

Are you using the same Apple ID on the Mac as you are on the iPhone? Did you follow the steps in the 'On your Mac' section of:

Turn on Sync Library with Apple Music - Apple Support

and the 'On your Mac or PC' section of:

Join Apple Music on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or PC - Apple Support
