    I have three people signed onto my Xbox, me, my girlfriend and my eldest son.

    Despite countless times retraining the Kinect it still has trouble signing me in.

    It's constantly confusing all three of us. Just got a text from my gf saying that the Kinect signed her in as me while I'm sitting here at work.

    It signs in my 2 year old as my 5 year old that has a profile (this I can mostly understand as really young siblings can look quite similar at times), what I can't figure out is why it's confusing me and my girlfriend.

    I've even hard wiped the whole system and set everything back up and it's still happening on occasion.

    Now I can hear you start to type, sounds like your Kinect is ***. And you might be right if it didn't work the majority of the time.

    Both my gf and I can be sitting on the couch, the exact same distance away from the sensor, I say Xbox on and the majority of the time before the picture has appeared on my TV the console has signed her in. I can sit for a good 3/4 minutes before it signs
    me in sometimes. Usually when it does this I have to manually sign in and tell it I wasn't recognised and then it lies to me and tells me it'll do better next time.

    So, people with multiple profiles on the console. How does it work for you and anyone have any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

    :)

    Transferring game

    You cannot transfer game ownership between profiles.

    However, multiple people can have the same Home Xbox, so on the profile that owns the content go ahead and ALSO make it the console their Home Xbox and the game will work for all users on the console.

    Let us know how you get on.
