    Had an old useless email in 360 account profile. This dated to before the days when you could change the primary email or add aliases. Lived with it for years and years. Finally decided it had to be resolved. Support pointed me to using the transfer
    profile feature now available to 360.

    Created a new account, with proper email, following the transfer instructions. Then used account change option on the console and transferred the gamertag / profile / achievements / history over to the new account. Changed the log on information to the
    new account and logged in to the new profile, all without problem or errors. Shut the 360 down and then restarted. Everything looks fine, gamertag there, achievements there, game history there. Just one problem I can't fix.

    In the upper right of the home display the gamertag / funds / email appear on a rotating basis. The old wrong dead email still appears, cannot figure out how to make it pick up the new one. I have been able to shut it off, but I can't make it display correctly.
    Any help?

    Thanks for reading

    Ralph

    Adding my partners Xbox 360 Username to the Xbox One

    It sounds like you created an offline profile on your 360 for your partner. Unless it's an online profile with a unique associated email address, you won't be able to transfer it across. Your profile transferred, but your partners isn't attached to it, it's separate and offline on the 360.

    I'd look at trying to convert the offline profile on your 360 to an online one, associate an email with it, then load that up in the One.

    Xbox 360 system transfer HELP

    So I shared an Xbox 360 console with a sibling and we each had our own profiles. So I purchased a new 360 Slim and wanted to take everything associated with my account on the initial console (profile, achievements, game saves) to the Slim.

    I transferred everything on a USB but although my profile and achievements transferred onto the USB and loads on the Slim, no game saves to be found.

    What can I do to harvest the game saves from the original console without causing problems to my sibling's account and content on the original system?

    360 displays wrong email (profile id) in upper right, after performing profile transfer to new ...

    [tag:Ralph] the Old try the steps below:

    In your console, Go to Settings »»» System »»» Storage »»» Select your local storage »»» Go to Profile folder »»» Erase all profiles (but keeps files, erase only the profiles) »»» Repeat it to all of your storage devices

    After, Go to Settings »»» System »»» Storage »»» Select your local storage »»» Go to Games and Apps folder »»» Erase all corrupt games and apps (with an "!" in yellow) »»» Repeat it to all of your storage devices

    Then, Go to Settings »»» System »»» Storage »»» Just select one of the storage devices and press Y »»» Clear system cache »»» (Repeat this procedure 3 times)

    After all the steps above, Turn off you console, and remove the cable of the Power Suply for 3 minutes. After restarting your device, enter again with you account (Social »»» Log in / Log out »»» Download Profile).

    This should solve your issue, please, let me know if it worked for you

    Hugs

    Xbox 360 account transfer to xbox one

    Hi, sorry but you can't transfer your profile from the 360 to xbox one as far as I am aware using a USB device. You'd need to download the profile using these steps.

    From the Home screen, select Sign in in the upper-left corner.

    Select Add new.

    Type in the email address and password that you use to access your Microsoft account.

    Changing email addresses on a profile .

    Thanks to everyone who responded to my questions & I apologize for the lateness of this post . Last night I was able to swap the email addresses on my profile apparently successfully . The only caveat is that the old address is still displayed on the 360
    consoles windows display in the upper right corner with my profile . Is there something else I need to do or will the new address appear in 30 days ? Now that I've finally made it this far I don't want to screw things up .

    I guess emptying the money in my account & waiting for previous 30 day waiting periods to expire were the keys to completing the email swap . It would've been nice if MS had sent a confirmation email notice to my new address for some kind of assurance that
    I had succeeded .

    If anyone knows why my old email address display hasn't changed to my new email address please let me know & again , thanks to everyone for your advice , I sincerely appreciate your efforts !

    My map packs are missing?

    To download history works in a new console first he have to use the transfer license tool for that sourse works.

    You can do that by PC or console, both ways works and the way is similar

    Go to your profile (in 360 go by settings) account management and use transfer license after that go to profile your profile and delete just profile (profile only maintain the rest) after that for just avoid problems clean your cache and download your profile
    again (do that for your new 360 gain permision to acess your download history because after use the tool your console gain autorization to transfer from the old one to a new one).

    I hope i help you and forgive my bad english it´s self learnerd.

    P.S: You have do right most of pases for transfer content for a new console (transfered the archives), you just (maybe) forgot a pass most of people forget...use the transfer license tool (in the web site if you can´t use the old model or in him self if
    he works or still in your hands...)after that MS identify you have a new one console and permit the content transfered works propely in new console included download history)than after the transfer license that´s the time to transfer down your profile by XBLA!!!

    I hope i help you and forgive my bad english,it´s self learnerd.
