  1. Son can't play Fifa 17 as it's downloaded under my login


    Please can someone help?

    I have no knowledge of Xbox - I bought one for my son and set it up yesterday- I set it up under his name but as he is a child I was required to enter my email as the parent. We proceeded to then download FIFA 17 via an online code. Now if my son is logged
    in it wont let him play the game - says the person who bought the game needs to login. So when I login in as me the game is available. But I do not want to be a player (only thought I was set up as a parent for security) - my son does and wants to play under
    his login. How can we sort this?

    :)

  2. Account profile

    I've set up my sons xbox one s (Xmas present) and downloaded fifa 17. However I have downloaded it under my account as I was setting up parental controls. Is there a way for me to give him overall access to the game without him having to open my profile?

  3. Help with FIFA 17 XBox One S download

    Do you need an Internet connection to play FIFA 17? We recently purchased an Xbox One S and it came with a FIFA 17 Full Game download token. It has been installed after using 60GB of Internet usage. Now it is saying my son can't play the game without being
    online (If I had of known an Internet connection was needed to play the game I wouldn't have bought it). It is really confusing as my other son has FIFA 17 for his PS4 and he doesn't need an Internet connection to play his.

    Games sharing

    I purchased Minecraft for Windows 10 when it last year. My son's computers are setup with me as the administrator and they are family/child accounts. If I login and download the game, then they can login later and play the game. I am not sure what the
    limit is but all three computers are under my Microsoft account. I have not tried it with any other games.

    "Disc region is incorrect for this console" on digital download

    Please do not "resurrect" old threads from last year.

    But to answer your question: FIFA 17 is probably region coded, and the disc can only be played on consoles with the same region as the disc.

    If the disc is a different region than your console, you can't play FIFA 17 from that disc on your console.
