  3. 2 Xbox Ones, 2 people, 1 Live Gold account?

    Hi in reply to your question Yes you could share gold with her but your account would have to be on her xbox and your account would have to be signed in to share xbox live. With setting the home xbox's yes you both would be able to share games if both of
    you have each other xbox's set as home. You only can game share 3 times a year though.

    If you have any more questions or are a little confused here is a link on how gold sharing and game sharing works.

    MrHomicidex, your profile is showing as "free" here. Since your account is not Gold, you will only be able to play multiplayer if you are using the home console of somebody with a Gold subscription. If your brother has the Gold account, you will only
    be able to share that Gold on the one console he designates as his home console.

  10. Hey there HaywireRegent48!

    As this thread is quite a bit old, I recommend creating new thread if you have further questions. This way you can receive support specifically tailored to you. Just to clarify, in order for your kids to access your library, you will need to be signed in
    to the third console. Thanks!
