  1. Can't connect to own account on Xbox One


    On my own Xbox, I've tried many times to connect to my own account, but the circle just keeps spinning and than it disappears. I've tried connecting to my friend's accounts (already registered on my xbox) and they work fine, but, I want progress to be saved
    on my account. How do I fix this?

    :)

    your profile may be corrupted , try this and see if it helps...

    ....go into settings and remove all the profiles , (make sure you have the email and password to get them back ) after you remove the profiles , shut the xbox down by holding the xbox logo on the console for 8 seconds till it powers down , while it is off
    , unplug your modem and router for 30 seconds to clear them also , plug the modem and router back up and when they are online , turn the xbox back on , when it is all the way up . re add your main profile ...it may sit there and sync a little while but all
    SHOULD be good afterwards ...

    Password Problem

    Hi there,

    to achieve that each user will need their own Xbox Live Account(s) (Microsoft account and seperate email)

    If that currently isn't the case that it's advised that each person has their own account.

    One downside though is that any achievements save games etc, can't be transferred to another account. (Some games like Fortnite have progress connected to seperate accounts, which can be connected to a different Xbox Live Account)

    See this link for some more information regarding child accounts and family settings:

    Transfer gamertag from one microsoft account to another

    Unfortunately this is not possible and since your email is a Microsoft email (Live, Hotmail or Outlook) you can't switch the email to another one and have the account not be connected to that email anymore, technically.

    You can switch the login emails around but you CAN'T switch TO a Microsoft email when you do this (Live, Hotmail or Outlook). You can switch to another email provider but you can't switch between Microsoft emails as they're permanently connected to that
    account they were created on. For example, you can't switch this account's email login to another Microsoft account because that email is attached to a Microsoft account already.

    The only solution is to start over and have him create a new account and have the account that owns all the games to be set as the my home xbox account on the xbox one so that the new account can play all the games that account owns BUT the saves and any
    progress will not move over and some DLC will not share, also.

    Why do I not own Halo Master Chief collection anymore?

    Anything you own will show as owned in the Xbox store or appear in your purchase history. If you can't find the game then it means it's not owned by your account and was most likely redeemed on another one.

    Cannot join any clubs because of privacy settings

    I am not aware that I have a child account, I never created it like that nor are there any 'parents' connected to my account. So it can't be a child account.

    What do you mean with try another account? If I switch to another account I don't have any games on there, and as I said earlier, I do not own an Xbox One, I'm on Windows.

    Xbox Backwards compatibility issues

    Are you sharing a Gold membership from someone else? Gold memberships do not transfer from the Xbox One to Xbox 360 online play. In order to play BC games on the Xbox One you would still need to have your own Gold membership.

    If you do have your own Gold membership then perhaps your account has been corrupted. Follow the instructions at the video link below to delete and redownload your gamertag from the BC menu.

    I can't redownload my account when the BC 360 dashboard says can't connect to Xbox live. Also, yes gold share does apply to 360 games
    IF you are playing them on
    XBOX ONE.
