Setting my Xbox account on PC

PYCapache · Dec 30, 2015

Maybe stupid question (buy first console), but:

I have Xbox 360, which I want to hold until some day. Can i redeem codes and buy games for my account on PC browser now, and play those games after setting up Xbox?

:)

Question about xbox and W-Microsoft10

They can't play on your account PC, instead you reverse it. You play on PC and get them their own account on xbox one, they can play online free because of your live account (assuming your xbox one is set to your home system).

This lets them play with you on your xbox one with their own account signed in (no xbox live gold for their account needed, just yours), while you are your pc under your account.

Easy.

Can't stream from Xbox One to PC - to continue sign in on your console using this account

I am on the same account on PC and Xbox. I have tried a different account and different PC, still get the error to continue sign in on your console using this account.

I have tried the following. Signed in and out of my accounts on PC and Xbox, removed the Xbox from the PC app, deleted and re-installed the Xbox app, installed the Xbox beta app, hard reset the Xbox, wiped the Xbox to factory settings, wiped the alternative
mac address. Nothing has worked.

Hi there,

Yes, you can log into xbox.com with your account and purchase anything offered through the store. You can download the items later onto you console.

You can also redeem codes on the site by going to:
account.xbox.com/.../RedeemCode

I hope this helps. If you need more details, please let us know.

I couldn't find settings for DOB in Xbox, I am doing this from PC though. Can I access that info from my Xbox account on PC or do I need to on Xbox Console? And it shows in my family settings that it is only me, there are no other accounts on it.

Another thing I am wanting to know is if my Xbox account is even involved with my Minecraft Account or is it just Microsoft? I don't own Minecraft on Xbox or anything just PC, Nintendo Switch, and Mobile.

Hello. Xbox Game Pass is currently in Beta for PC. In order to game share from Xbox to PC. He would need to have his account with your games on it, then have the Xbox set as his "Primary" or Home Console. Hope this helps.

I didn't understand , I set my xbox as home xbox and and added my friend's account still my friend can't access my ultimate subscription.

Also the gamshare works when I sign in to his account in my xbox so it works in my xbox but doesn't work in my friend's pc

I've logged in to my xbox account on xbox.com and there's no issues there.

Tried the time setting, didn't do the trick.

In regards to the removal of the microsoft account. Does that mean to remove it completely from my PC? And wouldn't that cause some issues since that's the account I'm using to log on to my PC in the first place.
