Fable 3 games for windows live adding friend problem

Games for windows isn’t really supported anymore. Your best bet would be to add them in the Xbox app.

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 Hilmiruy

Is this happening on PC buddy?

If yes, is this the steam version?

And, only with this game?

I'll be waiting for your answers, greetings from another Microsoft user!

I'm having this problem as well. For me, it's Fable 3. The game itself will run, and it appears to be connected to the correct gamertag - has my profile pic and points displayed, and tells me when friends are online. But when I try to download any of
the DLCs inside the game, I get error messages, and if I try to log in to the Games for Windows Marketplace app, either through the game or directly (which I have downloaded and installed straight from XBox.com repeatedly, in compatibility mode and normally,
with Microsoft Essentials and without, and many, many reboots), while it accepts my username and password, it does not appear to be connecting to my account, as in that app my profile picture is blank, there are no achievement points, and it cannot see my
purchase history. "There was an error retrieving your purchase history. Please sign out and try again later."

I have also tried providing an exception in my firewall, and logging in to the XBox app first (which allows me to launch Fable 3 as well, but still is no help with the DLC at all). I also copied the paid DLC codes out of Steam and added them manually to
my XBox account. The codes were accepted and it said they were added to my account, but the game still cannot see them. And since Fable 3 isn't a Windows 10 game, it doesn't show up in the My Games list, so I can't verify that now.

having issues activating your Fable 3 DLC:

1. Right-click on the game in your Library list and select "View game CD Key"

2. Copy any additional CD Keys you may have for additional content. If you can't view the entire CD Key, you can move the bar between "ITEM" and "PRODUCT CODE" to reveal the missing information.

3. Launch Fable 3 and log in to your Games for Windows Live account.

4. Press the Home key on your keyboard to activate the Games for Windows Live overlay and click on the button with your profile name and avatar.

5. Click on "Redeem Code" and enter the 25 digit code to redeem your DLC content.

6. Once the installation is complete, the content will be available in-game.

When you start Fable III, please be sure to log in to the Games for Windows Live account which you registered your game and content to.

i recently reinstalled fable 3 and can't download my previously purchased dlc either, it just says an error occured. i have no problem connecting to xbox live for windows or anything like that. It's irritating since i've paid for it.
