Hi,

I'm registred as a gold memeber on my xbox 360. I live with my family. Few years ago, we could share the xbox live gold with all members of my family with the "gold family" registration. But now I saw it disapeared... Only one member has access to the gold
functions. my question is: How can I share one gold registration with all different xbox live account of my family members. Thx for the help.

u think they will eventually add 3rd party HDD internal support

my external needs to be plugged in to an outlet so its only an inconvenience if I want to move my xbox from my living room to the family room. Still prefer external.

On the 360 each account has to have their own gold subscriptions. Gold can only be shared on the One.

Q: Everyone in my family is already an Xbox LIVE Gold member. Is there a limit to how long my Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack subscription can be?

A: An Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack subscription cannot exceed 36 months. If your family members have more than 72 months of Xbox LIVE Gold membership remaining combined when they are added to the Xbox LIVE Gold family pack, any remaining time on their subscriptions
in excess of the 72 months will be cancelled and you will not receive a refund for any time beyond 72 months.

Q: I have multiple consoles in my family. Does my Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack have to reside only one of those consoles?

A: When an individual is added to an Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack, that person’s Xbox LIVE account must be on the same console as the primary account holder. However, once they are a part of your Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack, that person could recover their
account on a different console and still remain a part of the Family Pack, as long as they reside in the same country as the primary account holder.

I believe this answers your question:

Yes, I use my microsoft account to sign into my xbox live account. I also have the xbox app on windows 10, and am definitely logged into the same live account (although I cannot see my mother's account on the xbox app, while I can see it on the console).
If I go to settings, it shows my microsoft account.

The thing is, my microsoft account existed without being connected to a family before I created my xbox one live account. It seems that it was only linked to a family when I made my xbox live account, so it seems to be only tied to a family there.
