  1. Family Account: Change type from member to organizer (Child to adult)


    How do I convert a child account (member) to and adult account (organizer)? I've modified every known setting and my son is still unable to make xbox purchases under a child account, even when I set the alerts/permissions so I have to give consent. I believe
    the only options remaining are to modify the account to make it an adult account (if possible) or to create an entirely new account, which I don't believe I can transfer his annual ultimate game pass (a $60 loss if I do this).

    Does anyone know how to convert the account?

    :)

    Cant purchase Game Pass Ultimate, keeps taking me to Family Safety page?!

    Hi Evopwr! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Being the organizer of a Microsoft family doesn't change the child status of the account, the family organizer needs to be an adult account the child account must be added as a child account thst will allow the adult account to manage this settings

    Why can i not change my privacy settings

    It seems you're currently using a child account due to a mistake during the account creation. Even if you change it, there is a big possibility that it will lead to other issues in the future. I suggest you add that account to a family group, once done, change the title from Organizer to member (the account you are having issues with). The organizer should be the adult account.

    Switching Organizer to Member?

    Its not possible to change from an organizer (adult account) to a member (child account). Whether the account is an adult account or child account is dependent on the date of birth entered when the account was first created. The date of birth on the Xbox
    account cannot be changed either.

    Hi. My name is Brilliant and I am happy to assist you today.

    Unfortunately only organizers of a family group can remove family members. Only the adult who granted consent can remove a child account from the family group. If the adult cannot access their account, the adult or appropriate guardian should attempt to recover the adult account. If you're locked in a family group, then your account may be lost forever.
