  1. Can 2 Xbox consoles use the same Xbox live account?


    We have an Xbox One that we have used for over a year and it is connected to our Xbox Live account. For Christmas, my sons got an additional console for their playroom. They have connected it, set up profiles on our family account,
    and downloaded games. However when they are trying to play online with the Xbox Live account, they are getting an error message that says, "Your profile does not have the correct permissions to access Xbox live functionality." How can I fix this?

    :)

    ps help me understand if I need another gold acct!

    THANK YOU both for your responses!

    I wish 1 xbox live gold subscription would allow 2 family members with their own gamertags to use any xbox ONE console, any time (I can dream, right?)

    so, if we have 2 xbox ONE consoles, and 2 xbox live users with their own gamertags......and we want them to be able to use either console to play xbox live (either at the same time or not, in the same game, or in their own game)-------we will need 2 xbox
    gold subscriptions with each gamertag being a primary account so that they both can use either console interchangeably.

    someone please correct me if I am wrong!

    muchas gracias

  3. xbox 360 and xbox one?

    Hi.

    I have an xbox360 and it works perfectly, but I'm going to buy an xbox one.

    I will use the xbox one normally, but sometimes I will use the xbox 360. (they will be in different rooms).

    Can I use the same account in xbox live for the 2 consoles? The 2 will never work at the same time.

    Thanks

    Accounts

    You can achieve game sharing in 2 way.

    All account can use Xbox Live and Game Pass on the Home console of the account that have active subscriptions.

    Another way is to set an Xbox different from the one used by the account that have active subscriptions as home, in this way the other account(s) on this home console can use Xbox Live and Game Pass, and the account that have the subsciptions can always
    use it in any console if is signed online.

    But this works for 2 console at the same time, I think there is no way to gameshare on 3 console.

    Xbox live for more than one person

    Hi ViksterVikki, yes you can use only one Xbox Live Gold or GamePass sub between many familial accounts on the same console or in the same house between 2 consoles. Just make the main Xbox set as "Home Xbox" to your older child account and he will give
    his advantage to all others account on the same console.

    Stay safe.

    can 2 separate xbox live accounts play via one xbox360 device?

    REWRITTEN (why is there no edit option)

    Hello, my brother and I play offline with one xbox360 console and 2 remotes in same game with 2-player mode. Our dad purchased one xbox 360 gold live account which we play by taking turns. Our dad wants to know if by buying a second xbox360 gold live account
    we can both play at the same time using the same xbox360 console on two seperate xbox gold live accounts on two remotes in same game. Can someone please confirm if this is possible or do we have to buy a second xbox 360 console?

    Error 80151103 cant download Live profile

    So I tried to download the main/primary gamertag on 2 other consoles, and got the same error 80151103 cant download Live profile. I have 2 other gamertag profiles on the same Xbox live gold family account, and I can sign-in and use them fine, I can sign
    off 1 console and download the secondary accounts on other consoles too.... just not the primary account. So the Xbox live account main/primary account seems to be corrupt or something like that. Since I cant sign-into the Xbox live with the main/primary
    account, I also cant do any Xbox account setting updates either. Seems like Im stuck in a loop here
