Xbox Live accounts on XB1 and x2 360's

DrZac · Apr 21, 2015

Apologies if this has been asked before but here goes:-

I have a 360 (Lounge) which was my original console and now is used mainly by my son. I have bought him a XBLG membership. I also have an XB1 (also in Lounge) which is MY baby and has my XBLG membership (yes, 2 memberships in household). I have now purchased
another 360 (Bedroom) so that me/son/daughter can play without disturbing people in Lounge.

Question is, can my son's XBLG membership be "installed" onto the Bedroom 360? I have also just seen something about a "family" membership; how does that work? Son mainly plays Minecraft and Tererria so is there somewhere online that can store his worlds?

TIA.

:)

Will you be able to share the same Xbox Live Gold account on 360 and One?

Yes, you can even be using the same account on one xb1, and one xbox 360 at the same time. Or one at a time (but not two 360's, or 2 xb1's at once)

Digital downloads over two XB1's

Hi all, sorry if this has already been covered but couldn't see it in the forums. I'm looking at buying all my games digitally, and I've got the below query which I need some assistant with. I've got two XB1's in my house, Let's call them X1 and X2 to
keep it simple. X1 is the main household xbox. If I was to buy ghosts on X1 under my account everybody on that xbox is able to play the game also, that much I'm aware (correct me if I'm wrong) My question is this: I've also got my second xbox, X2, in my bedroom.
If my brother/dad/dog are playing online on ghosts on the X1, would this restrict my access to the game on X2 (even though I'm the owner of the content)?

You can download your son's account to the 360 -
support.xbox.com/.../download-your-xbox-live-profile-to-another-360-console

There is a family setting on the One. I'm not too familiar with how it works, but this should give you an idea -

support.xbox.com/.../Xbox%20One%20Family It's basically a way to control child accounts on your console.

Since your son has a gold subscription, he can use the cloud to store his game saves -

Many many thanks. Not sure the family thing is going to help much but will look into it anyway. Other 2 items spot on though

Hi there.

Yay lets revive old threads. I prefer Xbox 360's UI. Much more faster. Less squares. Less boxes. Social section of UI on Xbox 360 shows your avatar and ALL of your friends avatars. Friend requests accept decline system asks permission. There's none of this
stalking and following nonsense. I see a huge amount of people on XB1 with disproportionate number of friends. For instance, 1004 Friends, 73 followers. That means they have 73 people who have this person on their friends list, and that the person is stalking
the difference. Can't play music in the background while gaming. XB1's UI is stored online, not like with 360's UI which is stored on your console. That could explain why it's slower and achievement notifications are at least 2x slower at popping up than on
360. However turn off the internet for XB1, and the XB1 is FORCED to use the UI the console has. Not to mention Xbox 360 has weaker hardware yet a more responsive UI than XB1. I expect the UI on XB1 to function much more fluid given that it's suppose to be
better hardware. Just goes to show the amount of bloat they add to the XB1 software, and they update the thing every month. I rate Xbox 360's UI 8/10 and XB1's 5/10 (still a pass).
