    Getting password loop when trying to add my new Xbox account onto my console

    Hi there! This is Virginia O.

    I understand that you want to sign into your Xbox.

    I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

    Please change your password before you try signing in to your Xbox.

    Go to https://account.microsoft.com>;; Security> Change my password.

    Kindly try to sign in after changing your password.

    If incase it won't work, please turn on your two-step verification by going to https://account.microsoft.com>;; Security> two-step verification> Turn on.

    When it is fully on, please test it out and sign in to the Xbox.

    If it will still not work, kindly turn off your Xbox. Unplug all the cables connected to it. Leave it at rest for 2 minutes. Plug in all the cables back and then turn on your Xbox.

    Let us turn off your two-step verification first before signing in.

    Sign in to https://account.microsoft.com>;; Security> two-step verification> Turn Off.

    Once done, kindly try to sign in to your account.

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    Using the same email address on more than one device

    When you said the message you get with your email address says "already in use" are you trying to create a new account? If so, you already have an existing account with that email address.

    Sign into the console with that account you know the password to as seen here:

    http://support.xbox.com/my-account/manage-gamertag-and-profile/add-remove-account-xbox-one


    If you don't know the password please see this page to help you reset it (for your email account):

    https://account.live.com/password/reset


    And the problem should be solved.

    I can't play my brother's downloaded games

    Your brother will need to download his profile onto the new console and perform a license transfer onto the new console. When he purchased the content, it was licensed to his account and to the console that he made the purchases from. Transferring the licenses
    to the new console will allow any user on that console access to the content.
