    2 gamertags on 1 microsoft account


    I find myself with 2 gamertag tags on my Microsoft account. I have my original gamertag I received when I bought my XBox One and another gamertag that was created years later when my daughter put XBox Gold on my PC. Both gamertags are linked to the same outlook email.

    I am trying to transfer my Elite Dangerous commander on my XBox to my PC profile. To do this I need to log into XBox Live but the portal doesn't see my XBox commander because it belongs to my XBox gamertag.

    The XBox gamertag is also completely invisible from my Microsoft account.

    Can I merge the gamertags into 1?

    :)

    changeing xbox live off my gamer profile

    1.Consider the following scenario:

    ◦Gamertag A is linked to Microsoft account 1. ◦Gamertag B is linked to Microsoft account 2.

    In this scenario, your gamertag is Gamertag B, and you want to move it to Microsoft account 1.

    2.At accounts.live.com, create a new Microsoft account. You'll only need this account as a temporary means of moving your gamertags.

    Example: ◦Gamertag A is linked to Microsoft account 1.

    ◦Gamertag B is linked to Microsoft account 2.

    ◦Microsoft account 3 is free.

    3.Switch the gamertag that's linked to the Microsoft account you want to use to the Microsoft account that you created in Step 3.

    this is what i have found what to do. but no switch gamertag button only change and when i try to change it says allready used.

    Switch gamertags between two Microsoft accounts

    If you try to switch your Xbox LIVE gamertag to a Microsoft account that is already linked to another gamertag, you will receive a message that says “the Microsoft account (or Windows Live ID) you’re switching to is already linked to another Xbox account.”

    Before you can switch your gamertag in this case, you must first remove the existing gamertag from that Microsoft account:

    1.Create a new Microsoft account. You will only need this new account as a temporary means of moving your gamertags. After the gamertags have been switched, you will no longer need this Microsoft account.

    Example:

    Gamertag A is linked to Microsoft account 1.

    Gamertag B is linked to Microsoft account 2.

    To swap gamertags A and B between Microsoft accounts 1 and 2, first create a third temporary account: Microsoft account 3.

    2.Switch the gamertag that is linked to the Microsoft account you want to use to the new temporary account you have just created.

    Example:

    Gamertag A remains linked to Microsoft account 1.

    Switch gamertag B to Microsoft account 3.

    Microsoft account 2 is now free.

    3.Now switch your gamertag to the Microsoft account you want to use.

    Example:

    Switch gamertag A to Microsoft account 2.

    Gamertag B remains linked to Microsoft account 3.

    Microsoft account 1 is now free.

    4.To complete the swap of gamertags between the two original Microsoft accounts, you must wait 30 days. (A gamertag can be switched only once every 30 days.)

    Example:

    Gamertag A remains linked to Microsoft account 2.

    After 30 days, switch gamertag B to Microsoft account 1.

    Microsoft account 3 is now free and no longer needed.

    I can't associate my outlook account with my xbox account

    Hello MxYg

    A gamer-tag can only be associated with 1 Microsoft account. Both your Microsoft account each have an assoicated gamer tag.

    Step 1 ) Create a temporary account in order to proceed with the transfer method.

    Note: Do not accept the terms if you plan on logging onto xbox.com with that temporary account. Accepting it will give a random gamertag.

    • Gamertag A (Main Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 1 (secondary account).
    • Gamertag B (secondary Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 2 (Main account).
    • Microsoft account 3 is free. (temporary account)
    Step 2) Sign in to your Xbox with your main (old) Microsoft account. Change the account associated with the gamertag with the temporary account. By doing so you will set your main account free from any Gamertag.

    Use steps 1-9 on the link below to change your the Microsoft account associated with your gamertag.

    support.xbox.com/.../switch-gamertag-to-different-microsoft-account

    • Gamertag A (Main Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 1 (( secondary account ).
    • Gamertag B (secondary Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 3 (temporary account).
    • Microsoft account 2 (Main account) is free.
    Step 3) Sign in with your main Gamertag. Change the secondary account with your main (old) account. (Apply the same procedure in the link )

    • Gamertag A (Main Gamertag) is linked to Micrsoft account 2 ( Main account ).
    • Gamertag B (secondary Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 3 (temporary account).
    • Microsoft account 1 (Secondary account) is free.
    After following these three steps your main gamertag should be associated with your old Microsoft account.

    • Gamertag A (Main Gamertag) is linked to Microsoft account 2 ( Main account ).

    @24,

    Did you try the Xbox version of the ole switcheroo?

    Before you can switch your gamertag in this case, you must first remove the existing gamertag from the Microsoft account you want to use. Here's how:

    1.Consider the following scenario:

    ◦Gamertag A is linked to Microsoft account 1. ◦Gamertag B is linked to Microsoft account 2.

    In this scenario, your gamertag is Gamertag B, and you want to move it to Microsoft account 1.

    2.At accounts.live.com, create a new Microsoft account. You'll only need this account as a temporary means of moving your gamertags.

    Example: ◦Gamertag A is linked to Microsoft account 1.

    ◦Gamertag B is linked to Microsoft account 2.

    ◦Microsoft account 3 is free.

    3.Switch the gamertag that's linked to the Microsoft account you want to use to the Microsoft account that you created in Step 3. ◦Microsoft account 1 is now free.

    ◦Gamertag B remains linked to Microsoft account 2.

    ◦Gamertag A is now linked to Microsoft account 3.

    4.Switch your gamertag to the Microsoft account that you want to use.

    Example: ◦Gamertag B is now linked to Microsoft account 1.

    ◦Microsoft account 2 is now free.

    ◦Gamertag A remains linked to Microsoft account 3.

    5.To complete the switch of gamertags between the two original Microsoft accounts, you must wait 30 days. After 30 days, switch Gamertag A from Microsoft account 3 to Microsoft account 2. ◦Gamertag B remains linked to Microsoft account 1.

    ◦Gamertag A is now linked to Microsoft account 2.

    ◦Microsoft account 3 is now free.

    6.Cancel the Microsoft account that you created in step 2.

    Example: ◦Gamertag B is now linked to Microsoft account 1.

    ◦Gamertag A remains linked to Microsoft account 3.

    ◦Microsoft account 3 is cancelled.

    Notes

    •When you change to a new Microsoft account, the current funds in your original Microsoft account do not transfer to your new Microsoft account.

    •You can move a gamertag to a different Microsoft account only once every 30 days. ◦This includes new gamertags downloaded from Xbox Live.

    ◦If you try to move a gamertag before 30 days have passed since the last time you moved it, you’ll get the following error message:

    Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account right now.

    •To change the Microsoft account associated with a child account, you must provide the Microsoft account information for the adult account that has parental control.

    •You can choose to require input of your Microsoft account password to sign in to Xbox Live. For more information on how to do this, see Password protect your Xbox Live profile.
