live account / multiple consoles

SuperTrooper266 · Jul 29, 2018

We just got an xbox one and also just got a gold live account. We have 2 360's in the house as well. Are we able to create separate gamertags for everyone in the house on the single gold account and also have all consoles running at the same time?

Xbox 360 to Xbox One back to Xbox 360 again..

As others have said, your Live account can be present on a 360 and X1 at the same time and you can be signed into Live on both consoles with this account at the same time.

Have i got lucky or is there an explanation?

A single console can have multiple accounts set it as their home console. So yes, it is because your console is still set as their home console.

No you will not be able to share gold across multiple consoles.

You can share the gold on the One, but on the 360 each account would need their own gold subscription.

The easiest way is to just purchase it on both accounts.

When you purchase content it's tied to the gamertag it was purchased on as well as the console it was purchased on. The console license allows all profiles on a console to access the content. So say Player-A purchases the game on console-2, Player-B can
access the game also and Player-A can redownload the game on console-1 and play it as long as they are signed into Live.

Ah. I see. And since there is a limit on the number of license transfers (once per year), it probably isn't worth the hassle as Smwutches implied.

Thanks. You both enlightened me.

Let me try and simplify this as best as I can. Put both accounts on your friends console and make all the purchases from your gamertag on that console. Now download your profile to your console do a license transfer and both of you guys can play the MP game
while saving a few bucks in the process
