    Family members can't sign into accounts on Xbox1


    I have set up a family group and added two child accounts, but neither of the two child users can sign into their profiles on the Xbox1. The message displayed is "There's a problem with your account. fix it at account.live.com then come back to sign in."

    From what I understand this is a generic error message. Equally unhelpfully, there is no indication on account.live.com what the problem is on their accounts. Can someone please assist with resolving this issue, thanks

    :)

    Account settings

    Two ways to tell if he is in a family as a child account already.

    Sign into his account at account.microsoft.com/family if there is no other family members then he is an adult in his own family.

    Sign into his account on the xbox console go into settings and under the account tab go to family settings and go down to manage family members and it will tell you if there are any family members in the family there.

    Error code 0x80a40403

    hi there i would suggest if the steps below dont work head over to https://support.xbox.com/ and chat to an advisor there to walk you through the steps in the mean time

    If you’re receiving this error code when trying to sign in with a child account, it may mean that the child account isn’t a member of your family.

    Child accounts that aren’t members of a family won’t be able to use the Xbox Live service until they’ve been added to a family. To verify whether the child account is a member of your family, sign in to your Microsoft account and see if the child’s
    account is listed on the Your family page.

    Sign in to your account

    If the child account is a member of your family, go to the next solution. If the child account isn’t a member of your family, you’ll need to add them so they can sign in and use Xbox Live. For info, see:

    Add family members on Xbox One

    or

    Make sure that your privacy settings are set so that the child account can sign in. To do so, have the child sign in to their account at www.xbox.com. Then, when prompted, the adult account associated with the child account should sign in to www.xbox.com
    and give permission for the child account to sign in to Xbox Live.

    Sign in to Xbox.com account

    Parental consent removal from Microsoft family account

    It may be easier to do it on a computer.

    Sign into the current parent account at account.microsoft.com/family

    It will show anyone in the family under the family member that you want to remove there is a choice for more options when you click on that it will give you a choice to remove from family.

    Sign out of that account and sign into the account that you want the child on at account.microsoft.com/family and there would be a choice to add a member where you can add the child to the new account.

    Keep in mind while the child is not a member of a family they will not be able to do ANYTHING until added to a family.

    Gold Family pack only allowing 3 accounts

    • What is a primary and secondary Family Pack account?
    The Xbox LIVE account used to purchase a Gold Family Pack membership is the primary Family Pack account. All other Xbox LIVE accounts associated with the Family Pack membership are secondary accounts.

    To see and add family pack members:

    On your console, sign in using the Xbox LIVE account that you used to sign up for a Family Pack membership (the primary account).

    Go to Settings, and then select Family.

    The primary and secondary accounts are shown. To add or remove family members, please see

    Managing Gold Family Pack members.

    xbox account telling me its a child account tied to a parent account but I don't think it is

    They need to create a family group where you will be added as a member. They need to sign in to htttps://account.microsoft.com/family and then add your Microsoft account as a member.
