    Multiple Xboxes


    This might be a Niche issue but I have multiple xbox ones in my house and one of them is attached to our main TV and cable service. Is there anyway to stop that xbox from signing out other xbox (s) when that tv is turned on?

    :)

    Hey there -

    The Xbox One has the
    Home Console     system which is designed for families with multiple users/consoles to share games across consoles without needing to purchase the same game multiple times. Making sure that is set up correctly should alleviate many of the issues you're outlining
    regarding sharing games.

    Regarding Destiny and needing to be logged in - Do you own multiple copies of the game digitally or on disc? If it's a digital copy, double check that your purchase for the game went through using the account in question's
    Microsoft Commerce account or the account's

    My Games     section.

    Let us know if that helps or if you have other questions we can help with. Multiple Xboxes :)

    I have a young adult son for whom we just purchased an xbox one s. We live in the same home, but I am for all intents and purposes, the admin on our family account. I understand that you need to watch for licensing etc., but I have purchased two complete
    copies of Destiny, one for the old xbox and one for the new xbox one s, and it's still telling him that the person who purchased the item has to be signed in. For a work around, we just leave me signed in all the time, but I think you guys need to rethink
    how this will be handled in the future. I purchase games, my son might purchase the DLC, depending on who is totally hooked on the game at the moment and/or has money in their account. I made absolutely sure that we would own two separate licenses for Destiny,
    since it's a game we would like to play together. For other games, only one of us would play at a time, so just like a book, whomever is using it.

    Thank you for reading my rant. As technology advances, and life situations are changing (more adults living at home, more husbands and wives who enjoy gaming together etc) The companies that provide those technologies will have no choice but to change also.
    I for one don't mind spending the extra for dual licenses, if it means we both get to enjoy it.

    Thank you - I just knew I'd done it wrong from the start!

    So with four of us there would need to be 2 "home" xboxes and 2 sets of the game we desire to play.

    No matter what console the profile that bought the games is signed into it will always be able to play its games and use its subscriptions.

    Each profile can set one console at a time as its home console and any other profile on that console can then play its digital games and use its subscriptions.

    With this in mind in your situation only 2 consoles at a time would be able to play the games.

    Let me see if I can explain it to you.

    P1= Profile with purchased games and subscriptions

    P2= Kid profile 1

    P3= Kid profile 2

    C1= P1s Home console

    C2= Console 1 that is not P1s Home console

    C3= Console 2 that is not P1s Home console

    C1 all 3 profiles can play any of P1s games and use P1s subscriptions without P1 being signed in

    If C2 or C3 want to play any of P1s games on either P2 or P3 then they would need first sign into P1 on either of those consoles then switch to their profile and then they can play any of those games or use P1s subscriptions Keep in mind going this route
    P1 would not be able to sign into any other Xbox One console to play because it will then sign out of that console and kick the person playing out of the game or online. So only the home console and one other console would be able to play P1s games and use
    any subscription at the same time

    i believe so.
    You can not share across three consoles. You can not post information like this, it is neither accurate or helpful.
