Restricting access to explicit content in the iTunes Store
You can restrict access to explicit content in the iTunes Store so that others who use your computer can't preview or buy:
- Items with a Parental Advisory Label (from the Recording Industry Association of America)
- Movies that don't have a specific rating (from the Motion Picture Association of America)
- TV shows that don't have a specific rating (from TV Parental Guidelines Monitoring Board)
To change access settings, you must be an administrator of your computer.
To restrict access in the iTunes Store:
- Choose iTunes > Preferences and then click Parental.
- If necessary, click the lock and type your administrator password.
- Select one or more of the checkboxes in the iTunes Store section.
- Click the lock.
Make sure you protect your password. Anyone who knows an administrator password for your computer can change parental settings.
