  1. Purchased Saints Row 4 DLC Game on Husband's Gold Account but I can't use it on mine.


    My husband has a Gold account so he buys the games and I use them on my account.

    He already has changed his account to be a shared Gold account so I have full access to his stuff.

    I'm playing Saints Row 4, and used his Gold to download the DLC (it can only be purchased from the game menu as I couldn't find it in the game store.. But I don't know how to access it from my game. It doesn't show up in the quests. It's supposed to show
    up after an hour of Gameplay and I'm almost done with the game.

    When I go to the downloadable content in MY game account it says it needs to be purchased. I'm not going to do that again as I already paid for it.

    Does the DLC need to be loaded? or is this an xbox account issue since it was an in-game purchase on my husbands account?

    Any help from anyone would be appreciated

    :)

  3. Xbox live gold

    I purchased xbox live gold for my husband's xbox one and my xbox one but we both can't use it. I didn't have to purchase one for each account before so don't understand why we both can't use it when we are using the same WiFi in
    the same house. We are using separate xbox ones so we both can't play our online games on our profiles. How can i enjoy xbox live on my Xbox one without logging into my husband's profile

    Purchased Saints Row 4 DLC Game on Husband's Gold Account but I can't use it on mine.

    Alright what I can recommend is to make sure the DLC is actually installed to your Xbox's harddrive. Sign in as your husband and check your Saint Row 4 game files by going to 'My Games and Apps' and clicking start on SR4 and selecting Manage Game. See if
    the DLC is installed or if it's in the ready to install list.

    DLC is shareable across accounts since it's not like a Season Pass licensing. However, I've never played SR4, and since you said you bought it from the game menu, it might be some kind of odd DLC licensing.

    Hey StaidSugar57479 -

    Sorry to hear about the issue. To clarify a bit - It sounds like you're playing the Xbox 360 version of Saints Row IV via the Xbox One console's Backward Compatibility feature, is this correct? Let's try a little troubleshooting first and see if that works.

    • Uninstall the game and any/all DLC
    • Power Cycle your Xbox One
    • Re-download the content
    • Make sure the account that owns the content is signed in as well
    • Try again
    If that doesn't work, please fill out
    this survey
    regarding Backward Compatible games so the information can be passed along to the appropriate teams. Also be sure to let us know if it works or doesn't.

    Thanks!

  6. Thank you both for the help.

    @His Pet Leaf you are correct. That did the trick. I'm new to the One interface and didn't know about the Manage Game section. And that's where it was.

    @Miss Bijoux - I appreciate the help and it was a One download. (At least I'm pretty certain it was).

    Thanks!

    Which one should I pickup Gta V or Saints Row IV?

    [quote user="HASHxBROWNS"]

    GTA 5!!!! Saints row 4 is 60$ DLC, If you ever played saints row 3 that is. Saints row 4 gets boring quickly IMO. Wait till a price drop for saints row 4, its only worth like 20$!


    [/quote]

    The funny thing is that it literally is $60 DLC. This game was meant to be an expansion pack for Saint's Row 3.

    Saints Row IV DLC

    Hiya The Atrain 11,

    The Saints Row IV DLC is not included with the Games with Gold. Xbox One has the re-mastered "Saints Row IV: Re-Elected" title, which includes over $80 worth of DLC. But at this moment, the backwards compatible Saints Row IV from Xbox 360 does not come with
    DLC with Games with Gold.
