  4. Make sure Console Sharing and Offline Play is enabled.
    Now, maybe you've added the account as a guest and that will make it disappear from your console, so you won't have the possibility to enable "Console Sharing and Offline Play". So please make sure you've added the account as a user and not as a guest.
