  1. Can my cousin make my Xbox his home Xbox by removing it and adding it if he has no more...


    Recently, my cousin got hacked but was able to get his account back but since then, I've been unable to play games that he's been gamesharing with me. I've checked multiple times that my Xbox is still his home Xbox but I was wondering if I could remove it and re add it to try and fix it.

    :)

    Can my cousin make my Xbox his home Xbox by removing it and adding it if he has no more switches?

    No, and you cannot gameshare outside of your physical household, even if they are your cousin

    Doing so risks account and hardware bans.

    My Friend cannot make my account my home xbox

    Me and my cousin try to share games, he made my profile on his xboxone home, and when he downloaded my games, i made my Xbox my home Xbox. Now he didn't download my games and made my xboxone profile his home again and the when he finally downloaded the games
    i try to make my xboxone home again and now he deleted my profile off his Xbox and now my profile has no home Xbox because theres a limit. I'm trying to make my account on my xboxone home again and it says i have to wait a year. This is not fair seeing how
    he still can't play my games.

    I accidentally put money on a different account i did not know i was signed in on and now i can't purchase xbox live since the account is underage.

    Ok, maybe your cousin could request to buy Xbox live and his parents can approve it, then he can make your console his home Xbox?

    Gamesharing

    Make sure that your cousin is in fact the person that bought the games you are trying to download. If someone else in your cousin's family bought the games, your cousin can only play the games that are shared to his console.

    If he doesn't own games himself, they won't show up on your console.

    Also, it might be just written wrong, but you don't make his account the "main account". Your cousin's account has to set your console as their "Home Console" in the settings under "Personalization".

    Make sure your cousin is signed in with his own account on your console, then presses the Xbox button, goes to "Settings" and under "Personalization" checks that this console is designated as his "Home Console".

    BEWARE! Do NOT turn this setting off and on for no reason, as each account is limited to only 5 console changes per 365 days!!!

    If your cousin used up his 5 Home Console changes by setting and removing the Home Console setting from your console multiple times, he'll have to wait 365 days from the first Home Console change to be able to change it again!!!

    Sharing Xbox live gold with multiple profiles?

    Hi Jittery,

    Thanks for the reply. The home console sounds like it is not set up correctly. To make sure, when signed in on your cousins profile, go to the home console setting the box on bottom should read remove my home Xbox.

    Thanks,

    Brad
