    Adding an Account Passcode


    When adding an account passkey, using "2" in the passkey is really sensitive. I tried on two different systems with different controllers to input "2" into the passkey. One press results in multiple presses on the system.

    Hello, if you set the DOB on the account to be at least 18, you will need to go to Settings, Account, Promote Account. Adding an Account Passcode :) If the account is still a child account, you will need a passcode, if you have forgot the passcode, enter the passcode in wrong once
    and then select "Reset Passcode" Adding an Account Passcode :)

    Automatic SIgn in not working

    The issue is the live passcode that you have setup on your account. ("hit the sign on to xbox live button and put my 4 digit passcode in.") The live passcode is there to prevent the connection to live on your account by anyone without a passcode.

    Just remove the live passcode and then It will auto sign in to live for you again, You can remove the passcode in account management or by downloading your profile again.

    Stop children from buying things on Xbox in one simple step!

    Yes 100% agree. Too many parents not using correct accounts. If it is a family xbox then the adult account should be the only one with access to a credit/debit card. Added with a passcode.

    My son signed his XBOX Live into other consoles

    HI,

    No It is not possible for Microsoft to remove it remotely.

    best thing to do is change the password to the account. You might also consider adding a passcode as an extra measure of security.

    Wont let me sign in my account offline!

    I believe you are referring to the passcode of the account, the four-digit combination of button presses? The only way to remove this is by recovering the account, or knowing the passcode. I'm sorry, but if the passcode was easy to bypass, there wouldn't
    be much point in having a passcode.
