    I want to purchase the Battlefront Season Pass right now to play but I am in college and on my roommate's Xbox. If I buy the Season Pass or any content really while I'm on this Xbox and signed into my account, will I be able to use it when I'm signed in
    on my Xbox at home too or will I essentially be buying these things for my roommate? Does it stay on the Xbox Account or the Xbox?

    :)

  2. Can I get purchases on my original Xbox if I made them on a different one but was still signed in

    I want to buy a DLC right now but I am in college and on my roommate's Xbox. If I buy it signed into my Xbox Live Account will I be able to use the DLC here in college on my account and when I'm at my house on my Xbox? Or would I essentially be buying this
    for my roommate?

    Purchase made through Windows 10 Xbox One SmartGlass

    Hello everyone. This is my first time posting on the Xbox forums so I apologize if i made any mistakes as to where this should be posted.

    Here's the deal, i wanted to pre-order the ESO: Morrowind upgrade for my account so i decided to do so before its release in a few days that way i can get the pre-order bonuses. Using the Xbox One SmartGlass app on my Windows 10 computer i head over to the
    market place and purchase the pre-order upgrade. After everything is done i get an email saying that i made that purchase. The thing is the purchase was made through the email that was signed in to my laptop and not the email that was signed into the Xbox
    One SmartGlass. So now i have a $40 pre-order upgrade on a Gamertag that has been inactive since 2015 and not the Gamertag that i intended to purchase the upgrade for.

    I'm not sure why the purchase was made through that email even though i was using a different email on the SmartGlass app. So my question is is there any way i can have the purchase transfered over to the intended account or if i can get refunded so that
    i may be able to purchase the upgrade through my xbox next time?

    Anything you purchase is tied to your account. So yes, as long as you are signed into your account you will be able to redownload it on your Xbox at home.

    The GamerTag that the original purchase was made under is the only account that can download the purchased content or game to a console.

    Are you logging onto the 2nd XBOX 360 console as a different gamertag

    If you are, you must sign out of this gamertag and sign in with the one that purchased it.

    A gamertag can also only be signed into one XBOX at any one time

    Inquiry regarding re-release of a once pulled XBLA game, Wolfenstein 3D

    No, no region changes. I purchased the game when it was originally made available. It was taken off of the marketplace. And it has since been placed back on, under a different product number/code. Yet if it is still the same game. I am wondering why it asks
    me to purchase again. I can still download my original purchase by going to my download history. That is the only way. As my version of the game is no longer in the market place. Was just curious as to why this was done this way.

    My child can’t use the add ons?

    Secure your account and sign in. Switch user to your daughter while keeping yourself signed in, and she'll be able to use everything associated with your account.

    I have to put a pass-code in every time upon signing in, and also to make purchases; a couple extra steps, but keeps others from making purchases from my account.
    Hi.

    Thanks for the replies and I really appreciate the help.

    I have tried these suggestions but it has not made any difference to my daughter being able to use the add-ons that came in the box.

    JRG; We have both been signed in at the same time and she can play the game (on both of our accounts) but the add-ons are still not visable on her account.

    (I havnt set up any pass-code as you mentioned because it hasnt asked me to. I’m not worried about that side of it at the moment but may have to do that later.)

    Jasmine; I tried “downloading the adult account” onto the xbox and it said that it already existed. I then made sure that the adult account was the home xbox account. Now it has solved one other problem that I had, -as you said,she now can use the xbox
    without signing on to my account first and then hers, so that is much easier. I think that by making the xbox “my home” has solved that. It’s interesting that apparently it should have been set to “home” when it was purchased but i’m sure I did’t change
    it!

    Now, is it possible that the add-ons are not usable on other accounts because they are specificaly bought in a certain game so can only be used by the person who purchased them? Not that I bought them in the game as they came in the box as an electromic
    download. This means that I would have to purchase them again from within her game and she could download them for her personal use. Only a guess? As I said before that I had previosly tried to download them whilst signed into her account for that reason but
    it wouldn’t allow me to. And the same may be true for the coins that came with the original purchase and can only be use by myself,so I would need to purchase them again for her.

    That would be a bit stupid as they could only be used by the purchaser and not the child!

    Phil.
