    Hi, my family have 3 xbox ones for myself and my 2 kids. I have gold and want the kids to be able to download and play free games such as fortnite. What do I have to do to set up accounts for them? Many thanks.

    Multiple xbox ones in same home

    Hello GlennHadleigh. In addition to what has already been provided by other Ambassadors, the link below will provide information on creating and managing child accounts if you want to manage their Xbox usage, etc from your account:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/browse/my-account/manage-account/Child%20accounts

    If they are older, or you don't need to manage their accounts, their accounts can be set up the same way you set up your account, as an individual account.

    I'm also attaching the support link for sharing your Xbox live. Sharing a membership is limited.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/xbox-live/xbox-live-gold-sharing-features

    And adding family members to your account:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/security/add-family-member-on-xbox-one

    Even free games, such as Fortnite, require an Xbox Live membership to play online.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes,

    Cowgirl

    Multiple xbox ones in same home

    The first time you sign in to an Xbox One and save your password, that console becomes your home Xbox. The console designated as your home Xbox is where you can share games and some content with others who sign in (with their own account) to that console
    with you. Never share your password or account sign in info.

    Home Xbox switches are limited to five per year.

    What can be shared

    Share your Xbox Live Gold subscription with anyone else who signs in to your console.

    Share games and downloadable content purchased from Microsoft Store with anyone else who signs in on your console. You can even share games downloaded as part of a subscription.

    What can’t be shared

    Account specific items may not be able to be shared. Some examples are:

    • In-game content purchased within the game with in-game currencies like Minecraft Skin Mashups or Halo REQ packs
    • In-game currency such as Minecraft Coins
    Certain pre-order bonuses and special edition content falls into these categories, so you may not be able to share those items as they can only be redeemed once from the account of the person who purchased the game.

    Play offline

    On your home Xbox, you can play downloaded games while traveling, or in the event of a network or service outage. You'll need to ensure that your console is designated as your home Xbox before you go offline. For more info, see Using
    Xbox One offline
    .

    If you have more than one Xbox One console, or if you sign in on multiple consoles, we recommend you designate the most frequently used console as your home Xbox.

    Note You can have only one home Xbox at a time. You can share purchased games and Gold with others only on your home Xbox. You get 5 switches per year. Customer support cannot offer additional switches.

    Designate an Xbox One console as your home Xbox

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    2. Select System > Settings > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.
    3. Do either of the following:
      • Select Make this my home Xbox to designate the console as your home Xbox.
      • Select Remove this as my home Xbox to remove the designation.
    When you change home consoles, all device licenses for digital content will move to your new home Xbox. These device licenses will no longer be available on your previous home Xbox. In other words, when you switch your home Xbox, access to your content comes
    with you to your new home Xbox, and anyone signed in can enjoy it. Your previous home Xbox will still give your friends and family access to your stuff when you’re signed in to it.

    Can I change my home Xbox console to a different console?

    You can change which console is your home Xbox up to five times during a one-year period. This period works on a rolling basis, starting the moment you switch your home Xbox for the first time. If you reach your limit of home console switches for the year,
    you’ll get a message letting you know the next available date you can change it.

    Note Customer support cannot offer additional switches. If your console shows you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select Help when you see the message, Can’t make this your home
    Xbox
    . You may be eligible to receive an exception.

    You can also get help with your home Xbox in Xbox Assist. Press the Xbox button to open the guide, select System > Xbox Assist, choose My Xbox Assist > Search, and then
    enter My Home Xbox.

    Your gold Subscription and any game purchased with your account, will be available on the Xbox you have designated as your home, no matter if you're connected or not, and on another console when you're
    actually signed in on it. Since you can sign in only on one console at a time, this means you will able to share gold (and or games) only between 2 consoles, not all 3. The "best" setup will probably depend on the daily usage of the 3 consoles and the games
    played.

    Xbox one wireless not working right?

    So are there multiple xbox one's in your home? The same network? If they are in your home that could be an issue. Some routers can't handle multiple xbox's connected.

    If that's not it let us know.
