    Cant change settings on a child account


    I'm trying to use my account from 360 over to the xbox one but it says its a child account and wont let me go online or add people and i really don't want to lose it all because it wont let it join the family thing and my other profile isn't able to change
    it and i don't know what to do.

    moving gamertag to another microsoft account

    Hi Defended,

    If the account is an adult account, it is unable to be set as a child account. This is why it is not working correctly. You would need to create a totally new account set as child. Reason for this is once a birthdate is put on Xbox.com, it cant be changed
    at all. You can change the one on Microsoft but it doesn't change the Xbox date.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Demote Adult account to Child

    Hi Nicole,

    The only way is to create a new account as a child account. The birthday on Xbox.com is the one that cant be changed once it is set. So the adult account will stay an adult account. If you make a child account and the games are on his adult account. Set
    the adult account as home, put a passkey on it so he cant log on it. Then the child account can use the gold and the games.

    Thanks,

    Brad
