Can you have more then one Xbox 360 profile in are Microsoft account ?

Hello TxOutlaw,

Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are experiencing issues with an Xbox 360 account. When you are unable to click on the account tab on an Xbox 360, this means that

you are not connected to Xbox live. On the home screen, press the Xbox button on your 360 controller. You should see an option to connect to Xbox live from the menu that pops up.

As for having multiple Xbox accounts on one Microsoft account, this is not possible. For assistance with account management, we suggest contacting a live agent here: Contact Us

Hope this helps, let us know how it goes.

on your xbox 360 you need a profile, it can be linked to the account or not, on the 360 itself the profile is mandatory for it to start, on xbox one it only accesses the profile already made if it is linked to a microsoft account.

Hello DazzaSM86 L! I'm Khaji, happy to help you today.

Make sure you have logged into the correct account on your console. Also, make sure with your old console that your account data and the profiles you have added to them are correctly synchronized.

If you have more than one profile saved to your account, you can change profiles by following these instructions. Please note that if this was a guest profile, it will be deleted when the host logs out of their account:

On Xbox Series X/S or Xbox One:

- Press the Xbox  button to open the guide.

- Select Profile & System and then select Add or Change.

- Choose the profile you want to change to.

- Enter the password to sign in to the Microsoft account for the new profile.

To do it on Xbox 360:

- On your Xbox 360 console, go to Social, then select Sign in or Sign Out.

- Select your profile to log in.

- Select Continue and then sign in to the Microsoft account to get the new profile.

If the problem persists, make sure you have an internet connection, and restart your console.
I hope this can help you.

All Microsoft Xbox accounts have an Xbox 360 profile that can be downloaded to either a real Xbox 360 console or to the Xbox 360 emulated dashboard on Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Even if you made a new account now, it would still have a 360 profile.

When you run a backwards compatible 360 game on your Series X for the first time, you will be asked to enter your email address and password. This is so the 360 profile can be downloaded. It does this because that is how the Xbox 360 does things.
