    Multiple Xbox Ones and profiles for children


    Hi I was wondering if someone could clarify for me something which I am having trouble understanding since its quite complicated and revolves around the licencing of games Ive bought through the Xbox Store.

    I recently upgraded my Xbox to the new X version which Im very much enjoying so far but as this has liberated my old Xbox One I want to give it to my youngest son. My elder son already has an Xbox One so that makes 3 in my household. My eldest sons Xbox
    is marked as my Home Xbox so that he can share my games without needing to sign in my profile and I can also purchase games for him through my account and they are usuable for the both of us. This means that on my Xbox One X I need to be signed in to play
    my own games which is fine, but now my 3rd Xbox will be given to my other son and he will want to play all the lego games of his which I have bought for him under my account.

    How can I go about getting my games playable on the respective consoles of my children without needing to be signed in with my personal account? Is there some sort of way to share my accounts games with both children on 2 different consoles?

    Thanks in advance

    Chris

    :)

  2. Multiple Xbox Ones?

    The XBox One console, how it handles xbox live profiles and how those profiles and moved to other xbox one consoles is very different than the xbox 360.

    It may help to spend some time
    here
    , and then go into
    support articles
    specific to any questions you may have after reading.

    In short, you cannot put a profile on a jump drive, etc. (it requires them to be downloaded to each console using the internet only)

    You also need to think about digital vs. disc purchases based on what meets your needs. (I don't want to input my preferences onto your family)

    I would recommend specifically looking at the following:

    -Getting Started with XBox One

    -Signing In

    -Xbox One Family

    -Xbox One Home Console and
    Usage Rules

    This is a lot but I'm careful not to "sale" you on anything, but instead try and point you to information. If you have specifics, feel free to reply or drop into a live chat session.

  3. Multiple Xbox Ones

    You can use Xbox lives home settings to share your accounts and gold privledges between family members. A Google or YouTube search can show you how to set this up. It allows any accounts associated with the main account access to the gold service of live
    as well as access to games purchased. Its a pretty good system for 2 consoles or less.

    You can gameshare only among two consoles. The third account with the third console will need to get the game again

    Afraid not.You can only set one console as your home console at a time therefore only gameshare between 2 consoles.

    Xbox Game Pass Ultimate family sharing

    Yes. But what about households with multiple XBOXes. There can only be one home XBOX in use with Gamepass or Gold, which means that, with multiple children, they are restricted to using only one of the XBOXes. What is the reasoning behind prohibiting multiple
    XBOXes as home XBOXes?

    Multiple Profiles on One Xbox

    You should be able to sign in under his profile manually with the controller

    This is my reservations about all the kinect auto sign in stuff. If you have kids walking in and out of the room all the time it seems like when you are trying to play a game it's gonna have all kinds of interruptions.
