  1. Can't play game even with profile that bought it signed in


    Long story short, if you play on your profile, but keep the one who bought games sighed in on the side, you can play their games. I can do this with my brother and cousin's profiles. But if my account os signed in on the side, other profiles can't play my games. None of us are console sharing, just sighing in the profile we need

    :)

    Can't play game even with profile that bought it signed in

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today MichaelKennedyXP

    In order to properly game share with someone else you need to enable Home Xbox in the other console.

    If I recall correctly, the thing that you're saying is a workaround not official. (Sign in with the account that owns the game, open the game and switch the profile)

    If you're not able to play using that method is due to is not supported and you're trying to trick the Xbox system. (That could lead to an account ban)

    What is the expected time to resolve this issue?

    I can't even sign in to any of my profiles so can't even play offline if I want to save progress!

    Everyone With Sign-In Error PLEASE READ

    I am very displeased with microsoft and this system, becuase you should not have to be signed in through the internet just to play a game that you payed $65.00. All you should have to do is be signed into the xbox not servers. I bought titan fall today and
    cannot even play it. can't even play campaign mode. I mean what is this, you buy a game and can't play it all becuase you have to be signed in, it is ***.

    With Xbox Live down, Xbox does not work

    Same here.

    Can't sign into my account offline. Network page just hangs. Disconnecting from net doesn't work. Power cycle doesn't work.

    Can't play any games, even in in single player. Can't even log into my console profile. I know XBL is down but why can't I sign into my console and play something offline?

    xbox game access

    Hello Tan

    Games that are bought on a different profile has to be signed into on your console to be played on a different profile even if they are installed.

    If this does not help try setting that profile to your home xbox which allows game sharing.

    For any uncertainty try www.xbox.com/support.
