Switching home consoles and family sharing

what happens when i want to use the home (series x) and send my kids to the xbox one?

my daughter is trying to play on the xbox one and it says i have to sign in, but i am in the other room playing the main (home) xbox series X

how do we work around this?

honestly, i will probably never play the original xbox one console where everything was purchased and all games sit.

i would be playing on the 'home' xbox series x

If your account is the one that the games/subscriptions are purchased on, then you can play on any console as long as you're signed in regardless of whether it's your Home or not. The other profiles would have to play on your Home console in order to access the games and subscriptions.

If you switch your Home setting and make a different console your Home, it will remove the Home setting from the console it is currently set to.

You can only share on 1 console at a time. So you'd need to set the console they used the most as your Home. If they decide to use the non-Home console, they won't be able to access the games/subscription unless your account is also signed in.

Amazing, so it is no drama to switch the original xbox one to HOME then and have the new one be our primary xbox and still have all the games i transferred and copied over?

And if i play on the home console (xbox one) does everyone else still get to sign in and play on the new primary xbox X ?

i am just confused about me being signed in and what happens to the one i am not signed in on

thank you

You would need to set the console everyone is going to use as your Home, so the Series X. Otherwise, they won't have access to the game/subscriptions. You would then be able to sign in and use the Xbox One and still have access since everything is tied to your account.
