    Do I need to go onto the actual Xbox to set screen time limits?


    Please show me how to set screen limits. Do I need to go on the Xbox itself as well as Microsoft family? Very frustrated at the moment as my son seems to be able to have unlimited use and I have set it for 2 hours a day during the holidays. He is 13 and
    got the Xbox for his birthday last month. A novelty perhaps but I need to set limits or he will be on it a lot more.

    :)

    Should I stream to Windows 10 or buy a new monitor?

    Hi Marlin Do I need to go onto the actual Xbox to set screen time limits? :) To initailly set up your new Xbox One you will need a screen to go through the initial setup. The streaming option is great if you have a good router with a good speed and no interferences, but it may eventually give some problems if any of
    the requirements are not met, also there is a very slight delay between the actual screen and the streamed version which would make it difficult to play games where you need a quick reaction time. So I would personally suggest to get a screen for it if possible

    we can't process your payment

    Hi
    TheDreamyWriter
    ,

    You also have the option to go to your local store, grocery store or game store and purchase a Microsoft currency card and just

    load the money onto it.. and redeem it onto your Microsoft account to be able to make the purchase. Also, I agree with the

    comments above about speaking to an actual Xbox Live voice agent so they can get into your Microsoft billing account and see

    what the issue is with your payment instrument. Follow the link below to set up a call back from an actual agent

    Do I need to go onto the actual Xbox to set screen time limits?

    Can I move my Xbox One profile from one MS account to another?

    So if I create another adult account I can manage the adult account he is already using? I didn’t think you could manage the screen time on an adult account. How do I do that? It doesn’t give me the option to set screen time limits for the adult account
    he is using. I created a second adult account but it doesn’t let me set the screen time limits on the other adult account.
    You're actually correct, if limiting game time is the goal, you would not be able to do that to an adult account. This means the alternative suggestion would be the way to go for this scenario.

    Child won’t accept invitation from parent

    Is he account an actual child account that is in a family with an adult? If so you can always go to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028244/microsoft-account-set-up-screen-time-limits-for-your-child to see about setting up the time limits for the
    child account for Xbox and Windows 10 Devices.

    You can set time limits by creating a child account for the person you are wanting to add these limits to. All you'll need to do is set up a
    Family Account then add your child to that account.
