help with profile & achievements and using 2nd Xbox One

You are right about the home console thing,you can only have 1 at a time & it can only be changed 3 times every 12 months.

Does seem odd that they are not unlocking,i switch between 2 consoles quite a bit & haven't had this as far as I know.

Are you always using the save that is stored on the cloud as that will always be your most recent save when switching between consoles?

thanks for the response. Yeah, the latest save will always show up and will update just fine between the 2 systems but no matter what, no achievement will pop and not a single one is tallied on the app. My spare used to be my primary one and never had this
issue...maybe it's a jealousy thing

That post about achievements unlocking doesn't cover all solutions either.

When an achievement gets stuck (you will usually see that you have 100% completion but it doesn't unlock) simply log in to the same game with a 2nd profile and then back to the original profile (if you don't have a 2nd account simply make one for sorting
this issue out)

Destiny seems to have this problem more than most games and you have to load a Guardian in each profile before the achievement pops.

Was the 2nd player signed in? If so next time, try letting 2nd player not sign in when in 2 player mode (if allowed.)

Also make sure the profile you are signed into is the profile the game was played on as it may not grant achievements to other people besides then the profile the game was started on.

Hi All ... first thanks to all the assisted with my question ... compiling all of your replies I was able to make my scenario work with much success ...

This is what I have done ... hopefully it will help any of you out there

1. 1st of the 3 Xbox One S's

- this is my home Xbox

- purchased the digital download of Sea of Thieves

- allows 2 xboxs' to be used under one license

2. 2nd Xbox - transferred game onto this xbox

3. 3rd Xbox - purchased a physical copy of the game

4. Signed into Xbox Live with my ID and started up the game on the home Xbox

- 1st kid changed from my profile to their profile

5. I signed into the 2nd xbox with my ID

- this signed me out of the home xbox - my child was not kicked off the home xbox and they were

able to continue in xbox live

- my 2nd child then switched to their profile on the 2nd Xbox

6. I signed into the 3rd xbox with my ID

- this signed my out of the 2nd xbox - and as before my 2nd child was not kicked out of the 2nd xbox

and they were able to continue with the xbox live

7. my 3rd child then switched to their profile on the game

Viola !! all were playing ... they invited each other to a private channel chat ... using Turtle Beach headsets were

able to play and talk to each other

PS: this also worked with Overwatch ... and no indication this wont work with any other games we play
