    games share with two xbox ones in same house issues


    i have two xbox ones the profile with gold and all games downloaded from store is on my day one edition, i recently bought a forza 6 console and put both profiles on each console and made the gold profile the forza console home and 2nd profile as home on
    the day one xbox. the forza xbox works great with both profiles (as it should) but the day one box only works with gold profile and when using 2nd profile says i don't own the game, i have had xbox support on his 3 times now with no luck in sorting out why
    this is happening, my only thoughts could be that the day one xbox is on the xbox preview programme and the forza isn't yet today the forza updated to the new dashboard!! and not the day one edition obviously because the forza is the gold profiles home xbox
    now so this is really confusing as like i say the forza xbox has now been updated to preview dash and works great on both profiles even though no games have ever been directly downloaded to this just transferred onto hdd with and external drive to copy over,
    the box where the games downloaded to doesn't work?? can anyone help me?????

    :)

    Two Xbox Ones in same house with same gamertag?

    Yes you can, you can have your gamertag on as many consoles as you want, but you wont be able to be signed into it at the same time on different devices

  3. Two Xbox Ones in same house with same gamertag?

    Setup: 2 360s, 2 Ones

    If I am hungry for achievements, I'll be logged into 1 360 and 1 One. They'll be sitting there simultaneously logged in at paused screens while I switch back and forth. However, you cannot sign into another 360 or One if you are already signed in - it'll
    kick you out.

    You can only share the games on the console that is the Home console. In order to use the games on a second console, you have to use the account that owns the game. So since the Forza console is now your Home console, both profiles would have to use that
    console in order to share the games. So it is working as it's supposed to.

    Whatever profile downloaded the games has to be on the non-home console and signed into Live to access the games at the same time. The 2nd profile will not be able to access the games on the non-home console without the purchasing profile online on that
    console. 2nd profile can only access games on the purchasing profiles home console without the actual purchasing profile.

    both profiles are on both consoles this was working last month as i used the forza console with my second profile and played multi payer with my son i then used the day one box with my second profile as that is the main xbox under tv in living room and is
    used all the time. the forza only gets turned on when we want to play together hence only seeing problem today, so something has changed in last 3-4 week of not using it, xbox support can't understand either as the day one edition is the console that has been
    used to download EVERYGAME on console so no licence transfer is needed, as long as first profile exists on xbox i can sign in as ANYONE as game is licensed to that console. xbox support tell me is should work, it DID work now it doest [tag:weird]

    It's odd that it did work that way because it shouldn't have. The Home setting is basically the One's version of a license transfer. So when you changed the Forza console to your Home console that would have moved your licenses to that console.

    I'm currently game sharing with a friend you need to go to your setting on the Xbox that didn't buy the game and set the profile that purchased the game as your home Xbox.

    i am just so confused and disappointed about this if i own 2 xbox ones and have them both is same house on same ip address i should be able to play any game i own on any console with any profile i have and think that microsoft should be able to recognise
    the same ip address and resolve this cos as it stands i can only use one xbox console to play games when i own 2 i know my first profile can use both but same issue exists where i own both console in same house but can only play one

    It is indeed very disappointing. I recently bought a second XBox One and am very frustrated by this. I wish the kept the Family Gold Plan. I don't recall this ever being an issue with that plan and multiple XBox 360's.

    The family plan did not affect licensing on the 360. The licensing on the 360 works the same as it does on the One. It's just not listed as being a Home setting and doesn't allow gold sharing.
