  1. Accidentally made a guest profile and i can't use my controller.


    I was transferring my kids' profiles and i accidentally made a quest under one of their names. I shut down and restarted. It automatically signed in the guest. I have only 1 controller. What can be done so i can sign back in with this controller?

    :)

  2. Xbox live guest not working

    I can't play live with a guest. I am playing cod black ops. I selected add a guest and my name tag (1) is signed in But when I hit A to add them, the nametag (1) isn't there. Just gust shows up. When I select the guest I get an error message sayingCant
    sign in to Xbox live. Please use a profile with a valid membership.

  3. NEW RULE

    I used to let my guest use my profile and wreck as the guest. Most times we see guests I break habit and expose myself a little more because they offer little resistance.
