Xbox live, 2nd profile

Sorry but this is wrong.

If you bought a all new Xbox 360 console, you can get 1 month free for 3 accounts on that New console.

When you make a profile on that console you go to join Xbox Live and it will show you a 1 month trial.

I have 2 accounts but don't know why the 2nd isn't accepting the same email and password as my 1st.

Yes you can have two profiles with Xbox live but only one of them will receive the one month free trial. Its how Microswoft keeps people from getting free live repeatedly. You have to pay for the Live on the second account. Hope that helps!

Have you done a license transfer to console 2? If not, was your profile signed into xbox LIVE on console 2? As I understand it, if you purchased the game on the 1st xbox then went to play it on the 2nd, you would need to have your profile on console 2 connected
to LIVE in order to access the content due to the licensing - unless you do a license transfer to the 2nd (in which case, your profile would need to be connected to LIVE on the 1st one to play it on that console).

Hi All ... first thanks to all the assisted with my question ... compiling all of your replies I was able to make my scenario work with much success ...

This is what I have done ... hopefully it will help any of you out there

1. 1st of the 3 Xbox One S's

- this is my home Xbox

- purchased the digital download of Sea of Thieves

- allows 2 xboxs' to be used under one license

2. 2nd Xbox - transferred game onto this xbox

3. 3rd Xbox - purchased a physical copy of the game

4. Signed into Xbox Live with my ID and started up the game on the home Xbox

- 1st kid changed from my profile to their profile

5. I signed into the 2nd xbox with my ID

- this signed me out of the home xbox - my child was not kicked off the home xbox and they were

able to continue in xbox live

- my 2nd child then switched to their profile on the 2nd Xbox

6. I signed into the 3rd xbox with my ID

- this signed my out of the 2nd xbox - and as before my 2nd child was not kicked out of the 2nd xbox

and they were able to continue with the xbox live

7. my 3rd child then switched to their profile on the game

Viola !! all were playing ... they invited each other to a private channel chat ... using Turtle Beach headsets were

able to play and talk to each other

PS: this also worked with Overwatch ... and no indication this wont work with any other games we play
