    Xbox License Question


    Im hoping this is the right forum for this question. About a month ago, my brother bought an xbox one, it was the first in our household so we both put our accounts on it. Since then, I bought a digital copy of Halo the Master Chief Collection and downloaded
    it on his xbox. Today I finally bought my own xbox one and it was a version that came with a downloadable Halo MCC. My question is this: I want to play the game with my brtoher. However, since it was my account that downloaded it on his xbox, when I make my
    new xbox my account's "home xbox," will it revoke his ability to play the halo mcc I downloaded? If this is the case, would he be able to just delete it from his hard drive then use the code for the Halo that came with my Xbox? I know this kinda rambled since
    Im tired, but hopefully someone will understand and be able to help. Thanks in advance!

    :)

    Do I have to license transfer again?

    My original console is Xbox (A) it has all my content. I recently transferred my license another console Xbox (B). I went back to Xbox (A) and bought a DLC.

    My question is do I have to license transfer again to Xbox(B) to get the content I just bought from Xbox (A)? Or does the license stick to Xbox(B) and I could just download it there?

    Side Question:

    Its been a month since I did my my first licenses transfer how many more times can I do this?

    Xbox License Question

    Removing your gamertag from his console will disable his ability to use the game. However, give him the code for the game and he can redownload it himself for his gamertag. If you have a USB 3.0 external hard drive (ranging in size from 256GB - 16TB) then
    you can move the game onto that for use on your console without the need to redownload it yourself.

    Licenses question.

    Hey there, so you're re-downloading previously purchased movies on to a new HDD? With TV shows and movies Unfortunately, you cannot transfer film and TV show licences from one console to another because of licensing restrictions.

    So it looks like you only get 1 license per console. More information here:

    To be honest, I thought you could transfer movie and TV licenses until I read it at that link!

    So we both learnt something new today, sorry I couldn't be of further help.

    Ok. I did the license transfer after buying the new HDD cause I thought that would reset it.

    License Transfer Question

    A license transfer won't get you banned. The system is set up for license transfers. If they were transferring licenses between profiles that could get you banned.
