    Two 360s in the same house


    My old 360 is showing its age so I recently bought a new 360 so I can play my library. The old 360 still works but is showing its age. I decided I could use it to play a separate Skyrim game from the beginning. I transferred all the contents on the old
    machine to the new one so the old machine no longer has my LIVE account so I can't access things like the XBOX store. I was hoping to get the DLCs I have on the original. I instead now ordered the Legendary Edition and will use that on the older machine but
    it would be nice to download things. Anyone know if there's a way to share the account? Right now it's telling me I can't because 'someone' already has the same account.

    :)

    Two Xbox ones in the same house

    Hello

    If your account is set as home on her console then her account should receive the benefits of gold.

    How ever while using your console only the account that has purchase the gold subscription will have access to gold features. (Online Play, Voice Communication, and Gold Deals)

    Essentially the way Gold sharing works is any addition accounts on the home Xbox of the gold account will also receive benifits.

    That means that if I setup the home console in the bedroom, she won't be able to play anything that needs live if I'm playing in the living room?

    My account was transferred to the new 360 which seems to have removed it from the old 360. I assume this is a feature to prevent sharing the same account with friends. I may be an unusual case that I still want to use both machines (different places in the
    house such as outside in nice weather). I'm assuming you can't have two 360s sharing an account? Problem is I don't have two emails to make separate accounts.

    I bought the Legendary Edition to be able to load the Skyrim DLCs physically. I hope there's no need for a connection to load these.

    two 360 consoles in the same house. plz help

    Transfer cable is like a real hard copy / back up of something. Liscense transfer will put all of your data you bought to your new xbox.

    If your mother is using the old one (if she has a hard drive) she will still be able to use it.

    It will download the next time you sign into Live, so you will have to sign in to whichever console you want it downloaded on.
