So I've Pre-Purchased Memory Maker - Now What?

2. Make sure all the adults change their settings on each of their Family and Friends indicating that their pictures can be shared - Click the box under each friend or family that says:
Share PhotoPass Photos
This friend can view and purchase my PhotoPass photos.

Several of my family and friends already say that they can "view and purchase my photo pass photos" but several don't.

How/Where do I modify this setting for all the adults-- can not find the "share Photopass Photos" setting under family and friends/ edit…
 
I just checked my MDE account and all of the ones going on our trip are listed as can view all plans and can view/purchase photopass selections. So once I prepurchase the MM we will be all set for everyone to have photos added to their magic bands and then I can download all of the - right?
 
My DH let me use his login to ask this newbie question. He bought the MM. He is "entitled." We are traveling with another family. We are all listed on DH's MDE. (He's FP+ enthused!)

Does the other family have to purchase a MM?

When we approach a photographer can anyone wave their Magic Band, or can only DH - the entitled- wave their band? eg. teens off by themselves want to have a picture taken.

I did see the instruction about having all adults change their settings for sharing.

Thanks from the DW

Yes.

Anyone can have their band scanned.

This is the important part, otherwise you won't be able to download the photos belonging to anyone not on your MDE.

Do these adults have their own MDE accounts, or are they just on someone else's account? If they are on someone else's account, I think their photos just link to that account. So, if the person who manages that other adult has given you permission to view/purchase their photos I don't think there should be any problems.

For the attractions, just go to the photo claim desk with the number of the photo and they add it on, make sure it is definitely yours as some CMs misheard me (probably my accent) and I nearly had someone else's photo. Also, if you think any are missing when you view you fill in a form and they do their best to locate them, unfortunately in November they didn't locate my Dinosaur photo as I don't think the CM put it in his Ipad properly as it was early days, I did look stupid in it, so it was no biggie, but, it taught me to double check they have done it if in doubt.
 
Actually all ride photos automatically download now-no need to visit counter-even when multiple people linked in account ride in different sections. All water park photos included (loved our Goofy one from BB!); also dis SOA at Poly and that photo is in their as well. LOVED being able to scan MB and have pics there (DS got such a kick out of having his MB scanned!LOL) We loved havng MM-our AK day we stayed nearly til park close and EE was deserted-we rode 5? 6? (will have to check ride photos) times in a row and started making faces or poses for camera :) nice to not have to choose which pic to buy. Just an FYI-Disney quest vids (like from the simulator coaster) are not included in MM.

Only if you have memory maker and magic bands. Without one or the other youd have to visit the counter.

As long as it shows as linked to your reservation on MDE, you won't need the MM card, just have the PP people scan your band after taking the photos. We didn't even receive a card after we purchased MM pre-trip. It was handy not to have to drag out a card, get new cards, keep track of cards this trip...LOVED it!

Awesome -- this is what I wanted to know. We didn't receive a card at all, but I do see it linked on MDE. We have time before our Oct trip, but I was wondering about this. Thanks! :)
 
Ok, what!? If you have a magicband and you have prepurchased Memory Maker, when you ride the ride you do not have to stop at the counter to get the photo loaded to you account? I must have missed that announcement. We had Photopass+ last October but had to stop each time. So how does this work? If you do not use a FP+ for that ride you would not have scanned your band?? How does it know?

This just recently started, I think about a month ago. I would assume that there's some kind of sensor where the picture is taken that picks up the Magic Band.
