    2 Microsoft accounts, 1 Xbox account, purchased games using the wrong account


    Hi,

    I have 2 Microsoft accounts. My Xbox is registered with account 2 only, can't register it with 1.

    Accidentally I redeemed codes for aa couple of games on account 1 - the one without Xbox Live.

    How can I transfer them over to account 2 please?

    :)

    Hi GosiaSowa, I hope you're doing great despite the issue you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    I'm sorry but there is no option or feature yet to transfer games from one account to another but there is a workaround wherein you can share the games on your account 1 to account 2 through Xbox console with the help of the Home Xbox feature.

    1. Sign in to your account 1.

    2. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    3. Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.

    4. Check "Make this as My Home Xbox".

    When you're done you will be able to play the games that you own on account 1 using your account 2.

    I want to change my email on my account,

    • Thank you for the response.

      My account is not "lost". I can log into it on Xbox live and on the forum. (i posted this question from "account 2". I however cannot log into it on the Microsoft page, because it logs me into account 1, using account 2's email.
    • If I use email 1 or 2 on Microsoft page, it logs me into account 1.
    • account 1 email logs me into account 1 on xbox
    • account 2 email logs me into account 2 on xbox
    • I don't want account 2. but i want to use email 2 for account 1. for everything.
    • Email 2 is not listed as an alias on account 1. but that's the email my verification code goes to from account 1 and 2.
    • Anytime I use a code for account 1 or 2 it just logs me into account 1 on Microsoft.
    • Even while on this forum for account 2, I click "my Microsoft account" and it take me to account 1.

    New Minecraft launcher won't connect since I changed my main alias from my Microsoft account.

    When Minecraft stopped working, I used my Microsoft account. And this issue happened after I changed my main alias from E-Mail 2 to E-Mail 1. I can play Minecraft if I log in with my E-Mail 2.

    I purchased Minecraft on my Mojang account before the migration, but I don't use my mojang account and that Microsoft account that was migrated to.

    With my Mojang account (E-Mail 1) migrated to Microsoft account (E-Mail 4) I bad the Java Edition. With my first Microsoft account (E-Mail 1, now 3) I had Minecraft Bedrock Edition. And with the other MIcrosoft account (E-Mail 2, now 1) I have both Java and Bedrock.

    I purchased Minecraft Bedrock Edition on my Microsoft Account (E-Mail 1, now 3) from the Microsoft Store and I purchased Minecraft Bedrock Edition on my Microsoft account (E-Mail 2, now 1) from the Microsoft Store but the Java Edition I purchased from minecraft.net. On my Mojang account (E-Mail 1, now migrated to Microsoft Account with E-Mail 3) I bought Minecraft Java from minecraft.net.

    Cannot buy games with backward compatibility (Trial Gold)

    Hi there,

    There are two possible reasons why you are seeing this error:

    1. You have the locale on your console set to the wrong region. You can set your region in the Settings screen under Language and Location.

    2. Your Xbox account setting is wrong. Which means you chose the wrong country when you set up your account originally. If that is the case, please follow this
    guide


    An Xbox Live Gold account is not required to purchase any games or apps on the console, including backwards compatible titles.

    The only time a Gold account is required to download and play backwards compatible games is when said game is being offered as a 'Games with Gold' item. Games with Gold are for paying subscribers only, they can not be downloaded with trial account.

    Hope that helps.
