  1. Transferring content from one console to another?


    My two sons have been sharing a console for some time now and I'm looking at buying a second console so they have one each (less fights I figure??)

    Anyhow, neither of them wants to lose any content or game progress so is there a way to transfer their individual downloads/games onto the new console?

    As you might detect, tech is not my strong point!!

    :)

    Transfering content license

    When i transfer content licenses from my old console to the new one, do i have to delete the downloaded content i'm transferring before i re-download?

    Thanks.

  3. Transferring Content Licenses from one console to another

    It was once every 12 months, but they've recently changed it to once every 4 months.

    BO2 Revolution map pack transfer

    A lisence transfer only transfers you console lisences for content from one console to another.

    It cannot be used to transfer content from one profile to another.

    Like CISphil said, you will need to use the profile that originally purchased the content to continute using the add-ons.

    If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

    Cheers!

    If you're attempting to transfer content licenses from one account to another, you should know that no such operation exists within the bounds of the Live service. It is possible, once a year, to transfer downloaded content licenses for the same account
    from one console to another to address an issue of unplayable content due to a console failure, but this in no way accomplishes the act of removing content licenses from one account to attach them to another.

    License Tranfering

    The license transfer tool does not transfer content between accounts but rather to new consoles. No content can be transferred from one account to another. As long as content is on the console that it was originally downloaded to, it can be used by all
    accounts on that console (with a small number of exceptions).

    Transfer one account to another

    Actually you can genious pay attention to the last line:

    Can I transfer content from one Xbox LIVE account to another?

    No. Content licenses are stored in the Xbox 360 console rather than in the Xbox LIVE account.

    To enable someone else's Xbox LIVE account to use your content licenses, you must download your Xbox LIVE profile and then transfer your content licenses to that person's Xbox 360 console.

    •To download your Xbox LIVE profile to a different Xbox 360 console, see Download, move, or delete your Xbox LIVE profile.

    •To transfer a content license from one Xbox 360 console to another, see Can I transfer a content license from one Xbox 360 console to another?

    After you've downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile and transferred your content licenses to another Xbox 360 console, the content can be used by all the profiles on that console.
