  1. Game saving issues between multiple accounts on XBOX ONE


    I was playing tomb raider and i got about 6% of the way through, then I was going to let my girlfriend play under her own account, and it will allow her to play off of my save. We have separate gold accounts, and I just don't understand it, It's not like
    xbox at all to share saves like that... On 360 if you signed into one account, even if the game allowed you to have multiple save slots, it would still have individual save slots for individual accounts. Is this something that they changed on the Xbox One
    for all games? Is this an issue with automatic sign in with Kinect? Is this just Tomb Raider? Also, a side issue, I dont fully understand the whole player one/two dynamic on this console, either. There is no indicator that tells you who you are, I learned
    that when you use the guide button and it takes you home, it has your home screen, but it's still a bit confusing.. I just got my xbox one, and it just reminds me way to much of windows 8. and windows 8 blows IMO. i can get used to the mediocre interface,
    but I dont want it to interfere with my game saves.

    Thanks,

    Max

    Savegame lost

    Hello Mr Siffish

    Thank you for reach out to the forums page, We have had a few reports of users having issues with save files on XBox One. This is potentially due to a few issues:

    • Asynchronous errors between the local save and Microsoft cloud save storage
      • It is possible that connectivity issues on XBox Live are causing issues during file save transfers.
    • Players signed in with multiple profiles
      • In the event of a local co-op session, the game will save to the account that initiates the game session. If you sign in and initiate a game session with a different profile, it will have a different saved game path.

    NFS heat missing progress

    Normally game saves are specific to a profile, that way multiple people can play the same game at their own pace, normally these are not transferable between profiles

    Is it possible to move Xbox Live/Games for Windows Live Gamertag from one MS Account to Another Microsoft Account Email?

    One account= one gamertag= one wallet= one email= all purchases= all games= all saves.

    Nothing can be merged between account sorry. Only Gold,Game Pass and games can be shared between "users" on console with the "Home Xbox" setting.

    Games from one profile to another, PLEASE HELP!

    There are a couple of games that allow game saves to be transferred between profiles. Mass Effect is the only one I'm aware of. Otherwise, saves cannot be transferred between accounts.

    2 saves on 2 different Xbox accounts

    good evening

    Yes, it is possible to have separate saves on the same console for different Xbox accounts. To do this, you'll need to ensure that each account is signed in to the console and the game separately. When you start the game, make sure that you are signed in to the correct account before launching the game.

    Additionally, many games will have the option to "Save As" or create a new save file, separate from the existing one, which you can use to create a new save file for your account, so you can progress separately from your partner.

    Another option is to create multiple profiles on the console, each with its own account and game saves. This way, you can switch between the profiles to access the different saves.

    Keep in mind that some games may not support multiple save files, or there may be a limit to the number of save files you can have. The best way to confirm this is to check the game's manual or visit the game's official website.
