    Cannot download a family account on Xbox 360


    Hey everyone!

    I'm having issues with a family account and, I'm afraid, it is rather complicated to describe:

    I've set up a Microsoft account for my 12 year old son. That account shows up in my family group on my account's page. Furthermore, I can see the my son's gamertag when I edit the online settings for Xbox on my account's page.

    However, when I log into my son's account on xbox.com, I'm immediately asked to create an Xbox profile. When I proceed here, I have to give permission and right after I enter my own password to do so, I get an error page, something like "page not found",
    which is very weird for an automated process. I doubt that this is due to the profile already being created because I had this very problem many times before the gamertag was set up.

    Still, since I can see the gamertag as described above in the online settings for my family, I thought that I could download my son's profile to the console. But that doesn't work either: I can download my own profile. And my son's gamertag shows up in the
    selection on the console as well. But, when I try do download his profile from that selection, it shows "Hello [my son's gamertag]" and the progress bar, only to stop after 5 seconds with error code 80150016 saying that there is a problem with the authorizations
    used to log in (in german: den Berechtigungen, die für die Anmeldung verwendet werden).

    If I try to download my son's profile by logging into his account on the console rather than my account, the picture is very much the same: it shows "Helly [my son's gamertag]" and stops downloading after 5 seconds, this time with error code 8015190A.

    I've done some research on those error codes. I've cleared the console's cache and rebooted several times. Since I cannot log into my son's account on xbox.com (see above), I cannot change his avatar to re-synchronize his account either. I've spent about
    6 hours in chat and 2 hours on the phone with the support. Everytime they said they would "escalate" the problem internally and come back with a solution. One time, that soulution was to start from scratch with two new accounts -- which I did, without any
    substantial improvement. My last try was to start from scratch on the console, not an the accounts pages, with two new email adresses. The problem remains the same. I tried on three different browsers, one of the being Edge, and in two different home networks.
    The result is always the same.

    So, here are my questions:

    1. Does anyone of you have an idea on how to solve this?

    2. Has anyone successfully set up an Xbox profile for a minor kid via xbox.com? If so, how did you do this?

    3. Has anyone successfully downloaded a minor's Xbox profile to an Xbox 360? If so, how did you do this?

    I'm happy for every input whatsoever. Thanks!

    :)

    Xbox family share question

    yes home console setting changed the mechanism

    change child account to adult account still does not work - I can remove the child from family and add it as adult but when I remove the account from family this account cannot login on its Xbox One S without a parental permission even the account is not
    part of a family anymore - thats strange

    why I want to remove the account from family: its because this account cannot download Xbox 360 gold games - always getting "Your account is unable to make this type of purchase on Xbox.com. Please complete this transaction from your Xbox" - support page
    says I have to download the game from Xbox 360 but only Xbox One S is available also tried that via browser - still not working.

    did anyone experience something similiar?

    greetings

    Unable to download RP rated games/demos

    if you have family settings you cannot download demos

    as you still are considered a child account

    My Profile Is Simply Gone? (Did not delete items)

    So, update, I can view profiles on another account just fine, and I can download the other accounts profile, but I cannot do either on this one account, the only one that matters. I don't know why, but I simply cannot do anything on this one account, and
    it is very frustrating. This happened after I was removed from an old accounts family, and then it asked me to create a new account for one, but that was on the xbox 360 itself, so I did not, created a new one on here, added to the family, and when that still
    did not work, I tried deleting and redownloading the profile, and now I am here. So that's a big problem.

    Map Pack/ downloading in general problem!!! Need Help

    and as his physical region is not the same as his account he cannot download the mappacks

    2 things

    1st everyone in the family pack must have the same regional accounts

    meaning if he cannot use the regional migration tool without forfeiting access to the family plan

    2nd he has to make an irish account to match his actual location to download the DLC as blackops mappacks are region locked to the region they are purchased in

    however he can use his family account to play it

    3rd yes DLC is only linked to the gamertag that purchased them not the family plan

    Guitar Hero Import Failure

    You will need to login to F1rebreath, and download the content onto your XBOX 360. If this content was redeemed on F1rebreath and it is on the same console as JYbrorWIN68 then you should be able to access it just fine. You cannot redeem the code that you've
    already redeemed on another account again. It's also not possible to transfer Microsoft Points from one account to the other unless you are in a Gold Family Pack.
