  1. Can't play games without signing into another account


    So, my stepdad got an Xbox One S & I got his Xbox One. On his Xbox One S, he has Rainbow Six Siege. I transferred/copied or whatever, Siege to my console and it keeps saying to sign in with the account that purchased the game. I gave my stepdad the money
    to buy it, but he bought it on his account. If I sign in to his account on my Xbox, he can't play on his Xbox. Is there a way to play the games I want to play (that my stepdad bought on his account, but I gave him the money to buy) without signing in to his
    account or just paying for them all again?

    :)

    Hi DiamondMiner

    Mikeysoonerfan is correct. If your stepdad signs into your Xbox and makes it the the Home Xbox, then sets you up on his Xbox. Your Xbox will be the home one with you as primary user, and your stepdads Xbox will be secondary with him as a primary user. Confusing,
    I know, but have a look at this web page. It will explain a little better:

    Hi there,

    As suggested above. Your step dad can make your account his home on your console.

    To do this

    Have him sign into his account on your console. Go into settings, select general then head over to personalization. Down the bottom there will be my home xbox.

    You can have your stepdad make your xbox is home xbox. His live account will be active on your xbox and give you access to most of his games and his gold account. He will still be able to log into his xbox. If he is worried about you messing with his account
    he can always password protect it on your xbox.

    No, you can't play the game without signing into the account that purchased the game.
