    Sharing between consoles


    My brother and I both own an xbox one but we both have bought several games. He has a few games like FIFA16 and I have EA Access. I recently found out about Home Xbox and read that you can share content between systems. I want to be able to play his games
    and he wants to be able to play my EA Access. I also have my son that has a gamertag on my xbox that needs to be able to access the content on my system.

    Any suggestions on how to do this or places where I read up on how to use the Xbox home feature to share content? Thanks.

    :)

    Sharing DLC between gamertags on same console

    Yes, the dlc can be used by all accounts on the console you originally purchased it on. He should just be able to start the game and play it. Try it, and post some more info if it doesn't work.Sharing between consoles :)

    Sharing between consoles

    For one ea access cannot be shared as free content using ea access is account depemdent

    Individual subscriptions like ea access and mmorpgs aren't shareable

    In your case with the dlc it's not possible your brother will have to buy his own content

    You only one home console and a roaming profile

    That's it

    You give your brother access to your home console your son loses access to your dlc and has to use your profile which I never recommend

    Only your gamer tag can use it on any other console with roaming profile

    2 XBOX One Consoles, 3 accounts, 1 XBOX Live account - How do you make this work?

    It's not possible, you can only share it between two consoles.
    I'll explain: You have A and B consoles. Shared A on console B, and when B is shared on console A, no one can share it on another console. But if console A shares on console B but console B does not share console A, console B can share C console. But console
    B cannot share game console and member console A. Console B would need to have its membership and games shared by the C console.

    It is best for you to share only between two consoles. And the third console will have its own membership and games.

    Sharing games between two consoles

    Set the second console as the "home console" and your good to go.

    Sharing games between two consoles

    The account with the Gold subscription will have to be the one that purchased the games and will have to be set as one of the console's home xbox and then it will have to be logged into the other one.
