Can't play xbox at the same time as my son

AugustVukosovich · May 28, 2022

My son has his own gamertag under my account. Just now, I tried to log in to play Dying Light 2 but it said I'm already logged in on another account. My son said that when he logs on to his gamertag, that it won't let him play any of my games. It tells him he doesn't own them. I already have one set as a home xbox though.

Yes to both however on your console you have to be signed in online to play all your games

Only your profile can roam

Is the console he's using the one you set as your Home? He can only access your games on that console without you being signed in.

That's a very good question. I don't know which one I set as the home console it was so long ago. I will check though. So, only the xbox one that is set as the home console can play my games without me being signed in? Also, if I set his up as the home console, will I still be able to log onto my xbox on my profile and play all the games I've purchased?

And thank you so much for your help.

Hi Zeroice,

The issues began before I cancelled the subscriptions.

My son's still can't play shared games unless my profile is logged in

But if I'm logged in to one xbox, then it logs me out of the other xbox.

So both son's can't play at the same time, why can't they play these games from their profiles?

Bimnog, so it is a port conflict issue that can't be solved on the Virgin Media router by configuration? I'll not be happy as my son and daughter could both play on their own Xbox 360s at the same time going through the old Superhub router with no problems.
