  1. Xbox Gold Live sharing....want to use different profile


    I think I made a mistake by using the same gamer tag for Xbox Live Gold and playing games.

    My son grew up and got his own xbox and one digital game (minecraft), we play together, share the xbox Live Gold pass and share our games and we like to swap consoles. Sometimes I am on the Big TV, sometimes he is.

    My problem is that my account has to stay logged into one of the consoles at all times for it to work.

    If we both play I have to use the small 23" monitor with my Xbox Live Gold account logged in with all my gamer achievements, friends and progress attached to it. I also like my gamer tag.

    If I wait for Xbox Live Gold to expire and start it on a different account, I will lose all my xbox Live Games I have gathered over the years.

    I really want to detach my xbox Live Gold account from my gamer progress, friends and acheivements. Can this be done?

    thanks,

    Mike

    :)

    Hi!

    Of course, on the same console you will have to log in with the profile used to purchase the game and the other profiles will be able to use the installed contents.

    If instead the consoles are different, it is possible to
    share
    the contents and subscriptions.

    Console Profiles - Xbox Live Profile

    Unfortunately, the simple answer is no. Two (or more) profiles cannot be configured to share the same Xbox live profile.

    If you want both profiles to enjoy the rewards of Gold membership, you may want to shop around for a deal. Depending on what you want from a Gold Xbox Live account (paid account) - for example, connecting to Film or Music Applications) you may be able to
    share one account on a Gold Membership.

    So confused about how Family Plan going away will affect us!

    just wanted to add to your question #4 well the accts the same there is no difference but the thing is that on xbox one there is a feature where you can have one account that has xbox live gold and you can choose to turn on a feature to share that xbox
    live gold subscription with up to 4 other profiles.

    can i have Xbox live gold on 2 consoles?

    Hello Dawn Miller-Abbiss,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in knowing if you can

    share Xbox Live Gold
    between two consoles. It is possible to share the subscription between two different consoles. You must use the home console feature on the desired Xbox One. This will allow an account to share it's Xbox subscriptions and content to
    all other accounts on the console. You can set up the home console profile on your daughter's console, and she will be able to use Xbox Live Gold. We hope this helps!

    One account on two Xboxes? Please read ;-;

    And he has his own seperate profile which uses my Gold so I'd be using my profile on my xbox and he could have my profile on his xbox but he would be using his own account but getting free xbox live gold because gold is shared through accounts if wanted
    and he could download my games. This would work right?
