  1. download to which console license option


    In all the updates, I still haven't seen a console license option. when going to download something, have a option of which console you want it to be license to. for those that don't have internet or have a crappy connection, can take a flash drive, with
    your profile, and blank mem space on it, to a family, friend or even public library. buy and get that download (game, dlc) and have it licensed to your console back at your house.

    :)

    Braid - My xbox does not recognize that the full game is unlocked

    If your console was recently repaired or if you’ve purchased a new console, use the license transfer option on your console to transfer content licenses. Here’s how:

    1.On your console, sign in to Xbox Live using the gamertag that you used to purchase the content.

    2.Go to Settings and select Account.

    3.Under Your Billing Options, select License Transfer.

    4.Follow the instructions to transfer the content licenses.

    5.After the licenses are transferred, you need to download the content again to update the local licenses. For information about how to do this, see Download content you’ve previously purchased.

    After you follow these steps, content can be used by other profiles on your console and when you’re not connected to Xbox Live.

    yes, you should try the license tranfer with your old account

    Heres the link:
    support.xbox.com/.../download-content


    and here are the steps wich also are inside the link

    `

    You can transfer content licenses from one console to another once every four months.

    `

    If your console was recently repaired, or if you’ve purchased a new console, use the license transfer option on your console to transfer content licenses. Here’s how:

    `

    On your console, sign in to Xbox LIVE using the gamertag that you used to purchase the content.

    `

    Go to the Settings, and then select Account.

    `

    Go to Your Billing Options, and then select License Transfer.

    `

    Follow the on-screen instructions to transfer the content licenses.

    `

    After the licenses are transferred, you need to download the content again to update the local licenses. This way the content can be used by other profiles on your console and when you’re not connected to Xbox LIVE.

    Save DLC to Memory Stick to use on this Account and Xbox Live Profile

    There is no DLC that is not downloaded from the xbox. You can not download DLC from this site. The only option you have is to download it from your xbox when you get home. The DLC HAS to be downloaded from the XBOX-it attaches a console and a profile license
    at this point- Each of which is necessary to have to use the content. You will only be able to use the content on either A. the console that has the liscense attached to it or B. the profile which has the license attached to it.

    I hope this helps a little.

    DLC not accessible by everyone in my Family Gold plan.

    Most DLC is licensed to two things. The account which bought it and the console it was first downloaded to.

    With the first license the account which bought the DLC can use it on any console as long as there is a connection to Live. Offline play is allowed on the console it was first downloaded on.

    The console license which is given to the 360 it was first downloaded to lets all accounts on the 360 use it, online or offline.

    So your account should be able to use the DLC if it bought it or if you are playing on the console where it was first downloaded.

    Xbox 360 Help

    You can, if the content was first downloaded on that console after the purchase.

    If you switched consoles after the account purchased the DLC, that account has to sign in on the new console, and do a

    License Transfer
    , and then re-download the DLC again.

    With the DLC-owning account signed in on that Xbox 360 console, go to the settings hub on the far right of the dashboard, and then to "Account". There under "Your Billing Options" is the option to do the "License Transfer".

    After the License Transfer is done, you need to download the updated usage license of the Broken Stell DLC simply by re-downloading the DLC from the marketplace or your download history. If you still have the DLC on that console' storage device, it will
    simply download the tiny license file instead of the whole DLC.



    After the License Transfer and re-downloading the updated usage license, the DLC can be used offline again by any other account.

    Can't play games installed to HDD on another console?

    If you downloaded those games on a HDD using your console, Those games are licensed to your console and will not work on another console with transferring those licenses to her console which would require you to download your profile to her console then
    doing a license transfer. after that those games will work

    HELP!

    Unfortunately some downloadable content is restricted to the purchasing profile and will only work if that profile is logged into the console. That could be the case with Skyrim.

    -

    The license transfer only changes which console the content license is bound to. If it was purchased on the the console you transfered it to, all you did was lock the content license to the console for four months. Here's more details on what the license
    transfer is and what to do after your do one:
    support.xbox.com/.../download-content


    -

    When purchasing content, on the page that says "Confirm Purchase" there is a line above it that says "Limits of Use" or "usage restrictions" (can't recall which). That option when clicked will tell you the useage restrictions for the content, i.e. who will
    be able to access the content on the console.

    I hope this helps.
