license transfer question

I know that you have to redownload when moving content from one to another but if you don't, does it stay licensed to the old one?Click to expand...

license transfer question

I got my kids a 360 for their birthday. Over the years I've downloaded several games for them with my account. I hit license transfer and to put them on theirs not thinking it through. Will the others still be licensed to mineif I connect to live? When exactly does Xbox live change it when you select the transfer and the redownload just lets the 360 know, or does the redownload itself change it?

You can try contacting support. In some circumstances they will do a manual transfer.
support.xbox.com/contact-us Otherwise, you will have to wait the 4 months to do another transfer.

A license transfer won't get you banned. The system is set up for license transfers. If they were transferring licenses between profiles that could get you banned.

The transfer of licenses doesn't expire, there's the time limit between transfers that applies, but unless you plan on using another console in the near future, then that shouldn't matter for your case.

In order for everybody on the new console to have access to games purchased by the other profiles on it (like with the old one), each profile will need to do a License Transfer. This is because when you purchase a game/app/dlc, etc., you get two types of
licenses. One is for the profile that purchased it, and allows that profile access to the content on any console. The other is for the console that the item was purchased on, which allows the entire family share content that one person has purchased. This
is the license that transfers to the new console when you perform a license transfer.

What you are doing can be considered marketplace theft and can get yourself and your friend banned.

pretty sure what you are doing or attempting to do is against the rules. license transfers are only for those who bought a new console and want to transfer the license from the old console to the new one nothing more/nothing less.
