    Alias


    My goal- Remove Parent's Email, add my Email.

    What happened- Can't verify my email to make primary.

    I've spelled my main Email correctly but when the Email verification is sent and I tap the link that verifies the Email is mine, the link says that I could've entered the wrong Email or to use a different account. I made up 2 different Emails just to transfer
    the account and those couldn't be verified either. ???

    :)

    Linking you xbox live account to a new email

    The easiest way that I have always done this is to go to
    http://account.live.com
    and add an alias to account. If you set the alias as a Primary Alias all emails from xbox will go to that new Primary Alias.

    Why I can't download my Xbox 360 profile?

    Emiliano, can you try adding a new alias to your Microsoft account?

    Go to Add an alias (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=864833). Sign in to your Microsoft account, if prompted.

    Under Add an alias, select: Create a new Outlook.com email address and add it as an alias.

    Select Add alias.

    Once the new alias has been added, go to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=842796 and select the new alias as a way to sign-in

    Then, try to download your profile on the Xbox 360 by using this new alias instead.
    You may find helpful to try to use first the recently created app password instead of your regular password.

    "Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account right now. For more info, go to Xbox.com/AccountSwap."

    For the Alias, would I just put anything? Since the alias isn't an actual email I wouldn't need to create a password for it. So then I would just make an Alias for Account 1 and make the Alias my primary and delete the email off of that account, then use
    that email as an Alias for Account 2 so then I would have the email associated with the gamer tag that I want. Right?

    Change of email address for an xbox account

    Would with the new alias could you add a password to that alias, or would it be the same?

    Hi there YojanWayne,

    Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is a question with Microsoft Account Alias.

    • If you remove an alias that's an email address from a Microsoft domain (like @hotmail.com, @live.com, @outlook.com, or @msn.com), you're permanently deleting the alias and it can't be associated with any Microsoft account again.
    • Make sure you save any info that you want from this alias before you remove it. All your email and contacts for this alias will be immediately deleted from the server and can't be recovered, and you won't be able to access Microsoft
      services like Xbox, Skype, and OneDrive if they use that alias.
    • If you're removing a primary alias, you'll need to choose another primary alias before it can be removed. If you’re using the primary alias to sign in to Microsoft services, you may not be able to sign in to these services after you delete
      the alias.
    • If you remove an email address from a non-Microsoft domain (like @gmail.com), then it usually becomes immediately available to be added as an alias on another Microsoft account.

    For more detailed information about how to add an alias, including why and how to set your primary alias, see the
    Manage aliases on your Microsoft account article.

    Hope this helps.
