    Change Microsoft account associated with GamerTag


    I'm trying to change the Microsoft account (moving Gamertag to another Microsoft Account).

    I have found:

    On the Xbox360 I go to >Settings>Profile>>Account Security>Change Microsoft Account (which says on the right side when that's highlighted 'Change the Microsoft account that your Xbox profile is linked to')

    It will not let me change it.

    Additionally, I have been directed to http://xbox.com/AccountSwap to change it over. That link does not work. When I type that in the address bar it forwards me to:

    https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/account-profile/manage-account/forgot-microsoft-account-solution

    Does the new account have to have Xbox Gold Live BEFORE I change it over? Is that the hold up?

    I know saved games won't transfer over, money won't, etc.. But this display WITHIN the XBOX menu to 'Change the Microsoft account that your Xbox profile is linked to' seems to be exactly what this is for.

    Thank You

    :)

    Xbox Profile transfer

    Hi TK,

    Technically transfers cannot be do but you can change the email address associated with a microsoft account.

    In order to associate the gamertag with another account you will need to create a whole account with an email address and then do the following to associate the gamertag to that account. How
    to change the email address associated with your Microsoft account

    microsoft gamertag not working

    This does suggest Microsoft account is associated with the wrong email. What I would do is on the Xbox with the Gamertag you believe is the right one is check the E-mail address associated with it. A Gamertag is associated with a Microsoft Account but
    the E-mail address that is associated with a Microsoft Account\E-mail address can change. Hope that helps and makes sense.

    How do I annihilate my xbox account?

    The gamertag will forever be associated with your Microsoft Account, unless you change the gamertag or the Microsoft Account. You can create a new gamertag at
    http://signup.live.com then change to the new Microsoft Account it on your console.
