Unable to download Super Meat Boy free through Xbox Live Gold on Xbox One

I have Xbox Live Gold on Xbox One and am not able to download Super Meat Boy (an Xbox 360 game) for free. We spent about an hour on the phone speaking to an Xbox Support employee, but he was unable to fix the problem and suggested I post it here. On my Xbox
One, I chose Super Meat Boy in the Gold Members Area. After selecting Show Price, an Xbox One Compatibility Page explains that I can play this Xbox 360 game on my Xbox One. After I selected Continue, the following error message appears: "Sorry. Your account
is unable to make this type of purchase on Xbox.com. Please complete this transaction from your Xbox." I am trying to complete this transaction on my Xbox One.

Thank you for your help in resolving this issue. I am looking forward to playing Super Meat Boy.

Unable to download Xbox live Gold free 360 titles on Xbox One

This problem has been happening when I try to purchase an Xbox live Gold 360 game on my Xbox one. I go to the games with gold page on my home screen and up come the games with gold and the deals with gold, currently the only free 360 title is Super Meat
Boy. I go to the Super Meat Boy page and press 'Show price'. This brings up a page saying, 'Super Meat Boy features Xbox One Backward Compatibility. You can play it on your Xbox One and Xbox 360'. There is then an option saying 'continue' to continue the purchase.
When I press this an error appears saying, 'Sorry, your account is unable to make this type of purchase on Xbox.com. Please complete this transaction from your Xbox.' All of this is being done from an Xbox One mind you. This problem occurs with all 360 games
I try to purchase, not just the games with gold.

This issue may also relate to the fact that in My games and apps page, the Ready to Download section does not display the xbox 360 games available for download due to xbox live gold.

This issue is not urgent but would like to have it solved by the time Xcom: Enemy Within, finishes being an Xbox live gold 360 downloadable title.

Thanks

 

Can't get Games With Gold Super Meat Boy on Xbox One

We have an Xbox One and Xbox 360.

All three of my children have gold accounts.

On our Xbox One, when we try and go to the Games with Gold tile and select Super Meat Boy, we are sent to the Super Meat Boy page and click Show Price.

Then it says "Xbox One Backwards Compatibility" and we hit Continue. But then it says "Sorry, your account is unable to make this type of purchase on Xbox.com. Please complete this transaction from your Xbox."

Does this mean we have to do it on the 360?

 

It means your account is a Child or Teen account. You won't be able to download the title from your console as it can't verify parental permissions. Even if you have purchasing privileges on the Xbox 360, the Xbox One uses a different marketplace so those
privileges do not apply. Best thing to do would be to download it on a 360 and then go to My Games and Apps on your One, or have the parent account log in and download it for you.

 

I turn 18 in about three months. Will my account switch to adult automatically?

I do not have a 360 so I cannot download the game there. My sister has the adult account on our Xbox One, but she does not have Live Gold so she can't get Super Meat Boy for free. My mom gave me a gift card for Live Gold Access a few months ago.

I am able to download the free Xbox One games fine. It is only the 360 game that is the problem. I'd really like to be able to download it and feel I should be able to since I am a Live Gold Member.

 

Yes. It will automatically update it upon the first time signing into the console after you reach the age of majority: 18. You can find more information
