Xbox one log in issues with Multiple Xboxes in our home.

Ojibirish · Nov 9, 2020

We have two Xboxes and the home-style setup where I can share my Xbox live gold is working. My issue now is, I Cannot jump on to the Xbox to play at the same time as my kids without one of us getting kicked off. We used to be able to play together but now
it isn't letting me. This just started recently and I cannot figure out what is going on.

Does anyone have any input on how I can get it back to where I can play on my Xbox at the same time as them? sometimes I wanna jump on and play Xbox with them and or play on my own. But now it is not possible at all. I got four kids and myself who all have
an account to play. My youngest tried playing on the Xbox downstairs with her brothers who were upstairs and it got into this battle where my account needed to be added and none could play at all. This is an issue we have never had. I don't want to have to
buy an Xbox live account for each kid cause that will be expensive.

Again any insight from my ramblings would be appreciated here. Thank you in advance.

Hello, If its two accounts that you play on. Go to yhe kids xbox put your account on it and go to the settings and go to personalization then My home xbox then set your account as their home xbox and theb they will be able to play on their account without
being signed into your account and that way they have all the game you play and your gamepass and Gold. And you will be able to sign into your account and play at the same time as them. Let me know if this helps!

As long as your Xbox isnset up as you home Xbox then anyone who is logged in on it will be allowed to use you game pass games or any other games you own. You can then play any of your games anywhere else you login.

It sure would be nice if Microsoft just allowed us to share our games with our family members. For example, for those of us with multiple children, if they're logged in on multiple Xboxes only the child logged into our "home Xbox" can use our games. Please
Microsoft allow us to share our games with our own children. We cant afford to buy the same fame multiple times in the same family!

So are there multiple xbox one's in your home? The same network? If they are in your home that could be an issue. Some routers can't handle multiple xbox's connected.

If that's not it let us know.

The My Home Xbox feature is for use in a family within one house on one console with multiple accounts on it, it's not really meant for sharing between two houses.

To use the My Home Xbox feature like this you will need to log in with the account that owns the games/gold and make it the My Home Xbox on the console where the account will not be logging into often. This console will have all access to that account's
games and gold membership while it can log in on any other console without my home xbox and use the games and gold there as well.

See here how to do this:

Please note that you have 5 moves of this per year and you can only have one My Home Xbox set at a time.
