  1. Family can't use apps because of XBOX gold


    I am a longtime Xbox LIVE GOLD member. My fiancee cannot use any of our apps such as Netflix because her live account is not gold. This seems absurd, is there any way that--at least in my own home--my family can use my xbox one apps? Maybe there is an obvious
    way to do this I am unaware of, but for now this makes using the xbox as a media center worthless.

    :)

    My secondary Gold Family Pack Accounts still say they are free accounts.

    So I previously had a Gold Family Pack Account until my XBOX was hacked. They shut down that account and took care of things. Now that I'm able to use this account again, I renewed my Gold Family Pack. But the secondary accounts I had before still say
    they are free accounts and I can't use any of the content or play games on my other machines because of they aren't showing up as my Gold Family Account. Any ideas? My primary account does work.

  3. Is this not false advertising?

    Without XBL Gold you can't use the APPS, so what it means is for $5 a month you can have XBL Gold and use the APPS. Some apps like HULU and Netflix needs a subscription.

    I assume its the same console. If so go to settings and set your console to the home console. Then anyone can use your gold privileges.

  7. It is odd it never prompted me when I set it up though. Instead it just constantly harassed all the users to sign in as someone else.

    Adding a family member to my gold account.

    Hi there,

    do you have a family pack subscription or a gold subscription, because you will need an active family pack subscription to be able to do so.

    -

    If you don't have a family pack subscription, you can't get it anymore, as it is discontinued and the only other option would be to get a seperate xbox live subscription for that other account.

    -

    If you do have a family gold pack subscription take a look at this link:
