  1. Game/Family Sharing doesn’t seem to be working.


    I have my account and my boyfriends account signed in on our Xbox and the Xbox is set as our home Xbox for the both of us.

    Two friends of ours do the game/family sharing where if one of them purchased something, they both have access to it. Theirs is not connected to ours though.

    I’m coming across a problem that on my boyfriends account, we purchased the battle pass on Fortnite so I figured it would show up on my account when I try to play Fortnite, like it shows up for our friends. However, none of the items we purchased on his
    account for Fortnite is showing up on mine. I don’t know how to fix this and I hope someone understands my problem and what I am trying to say.

    :)

    THIS IS ***

    People need to stop moaning about family sharing. Just because microsoft was going to allow you to share your game with 10 people does not mean the publishers will. They would have had the ability to block family sharing i believe. Questions for family sharing
    were left unanswered. Would players be able to play multiplayer through the sharing function? I would not be surprised if this family sharing was for singleplayer only. I am sorry, but i would rather take no drm and no always online check thing then a feature
    that could possibly turn out to suck tremendously.

  3. What exactly was Family Sharing

    "Family Sharing as it is" is unfortunately none existent, Family Sharing is a different service to what use to be the Family Gold plan and both are none existent at this stage, i do like that the 1 Gold plan covers an XB1 in its entirety for every profile
    on that console,

    me personally i would prefer the Family Sharing plan over the old Family Gold plan if it ever come down to choosing one or the other.

    Family Sharing was to share digital games among 10 people,

    Game/Family Sharing doesn’t seem to be working.

    not everything applies to game sharing

    Ingame items is one of them and it's case by case and is profile specific

    Game sharing is mostly for Dlc not Ingame items

    MLB the Show settings

    This seems to be an issue with account that are part of a greater family account. My step son is a part of my family to limit his play after a certain time of night - and this seems the be the only correlation with why his account doesn’t work for the show 21 online.

    Other online game’s work fine, but there seems to be something the game doesn’t like about family managed accounts.

    This is his favorite game, can we get assistance with this?

    Hi I got banned 3 days ago

    Yeah but what if your family members doesn’t live with you? It doesn’t actually pacifically say they have to live with you to game share with them.
