Issues with multiple iPhones using one iTunes/iCloud account...?

I have been using an iPhone 5 since February. Within the last two weeks, two other lines on our family account have started using iPhones (the 5c). All of them are using the same iTunes/iCloud account.

There are a couple of small issues that I can not figure out on my own and I was hoping someone could help me.

First, when I download music, the other two phones are getting notifications from the iTunes store about turning on Automatic Downloads. We do not want/need automatic downloads and I would like to turn these notifications off. How do I do that?

Second, when I visit the App Store or iTunes Store on my phone, I have to enter my iTunes password to make a purchase or download something (even if it is free). The other two phones on my account do not. How do I change that?

I think that is all for now, but I appreciate your help! Thank you!

    When it comes to automatic downloads Settings-iTunes & app stores and make sure they are off.

    You cannot change that. When you download something it will ask for the password. You can change the amount of time in between when it asks you in Settings-General.
