Family Sharing Issues.

ELPITAMAN · Nov 29, 2021

My daughter has her own Microsoft/Xbox Account. I have her as part of my family in my Microsoft account. I have Gamepass Ultimate. On my Xbox One X, I added her user/account to it so she can switch to her profile and play using my benefits and games that I own.

There are two weird things that are happening:

1) While she is on her profile, she has access to my games and it shows that she can download Gamepass games. But she can’t cloud play them like I can on my profile.

2) She was playing Fortnite on her profile. I logged in on my iPad and started playing a cloud game and it kicked her out saying that I was logged in somewhere else.

Why is this happening? Does this mean that I can’t be logged in somewhere else while she is logged in?

It's an issue with the new store on the preview program.

Yes i am, I've done further research and discovered that because I got the newest Dashboard update last night that it doesn't work with him, he's in the preview program too, so maybe we just have to wait till he gets it.

But I'm also confused as to why it's not showing up on xbox.com that I've "Already Purchased" it, I know my Credit Card was charged for it.

Yep. I have both my daughters using my old Xbox One X (which is setup as my home console) while I play on my Series X. Works a treat.

1) If you have the console set as your Home and/or your account is signed in on the console at the same time as her, she can access your games. Since she is not subscribed to Game Pass Ultimate, she would not have access to Xcloud as that is only for subscribers.

2) Make sure your account is signed out on the console when you're done using it. It shouldn't signed her out of Fortnite as long as she is definitely using her own profile.

Yes, as long as you leave the One X as your Home console. That's what allows her to access your library/subscriptions.
