  1. Gold Live account under new profile, need moved


    I received a Gold Live membership for Christmas. Had an offline profile on the Xbox 360 not linked to an email or anything. Xbox wasn't even online. Redeemed the Xbox 360 Gold Live membership under my old email address (hence, a different profile).

    I want to bring the Gold Live membership to my offline account (which I now have registered with an email). I tried merging them on the Xbox but it won't work.

    Help please

    :)

    How to Download, Move or Delete Xbox Live Profiles

    You need to download, move or delete your Xbox Live profile in certain circumstances. If you want to play on multiple consoles of your own or of your friends, you will have to download or move your Xbox Live profile from one console to another.

    In addition, you might need to download the Xbox Live profile for the following reasons:

    • You deleted you Xbox live profile by mistake.
    • You need to use your Xbox LIVE gamertag on another console.
    • You want to use your existing Zune or Games for Windows account instead of creating a new account.

    You can also move your profile to the other consoles using a USB flash drive.


    How to download Your Xbox Live Profile

    You can easily download your Xbox Live gamertag to a console by following a few easy steps:

    • Press the larger X button in the center of your controller which will lead you to the Xbox Guide.
    • Select Download Profile to start download. If your do not find this option, sign out of your profile by pressing X.
    Enter the user ID of your Microsoft account (Windows Live ID) which is associated with your Xbox Live gamertag and then enter the password. Select the desired storage drive to save the profile.

    Note: A Microsoft account is essential for signing in to any Microsoft services like Xbox Live. You have to provide your parent’s Microsoft account information to download the profile if your account is an Xbox Live child account.

    You can save your "Microsoft account" password on the console, so that you don't need to provide it to sign into your profile again. The Remember Password option is off by default. It is better to save the password on your own console not to be asked to enter the password again and again at the time of singing into your profile. If you are using a console that is not yours, you may want to leave the Remember Password option off (unchecked).

    Now you should be able to sign in with your gamertag on the console.

    **If per chance you did opt to check the Remember Password option on someone else's console, your password can be remotely removed off of that console. Check out How to Password Protect your Profile on Xbox Live.**


    How to move your profile to another console

    You can easily move your profile to another console using a USB flash drive or Xbox Memory unit following these steps:
    • First off, plug a USB flash drive or an original Xbox 360 Memory Unit into your console.
    • Go to the Settings option to select storage and then select All Devices.
    • Select Gamer Profiles and Press Move.
    • You need to select the USB Storage Device or Memory Unit
    After performing the above successfully, remove the memory unit or USB flash drive and insert it into the console on which you want to move your profile. You are required to enter your Microsoft account password which ensures the security of your account.

    After playing on another console, if you want to move it to previous console, remove the USB flash drive or Memory unit and take it back to the original console and repeat the steps above.

    **You will be asked for your Microsoft account password when you move your profile to a different console. This is to protect you and your account if the device is ever stolen. If you want to find out more, check out How to Password Protect your Profile on Xbox Live.**


    How to delete a gamer profile


    You can delete unused profiles following few steps:

    • Go to Settings to select system.
    • Select Storage
    • Go to All Devices and select Gamer Profiles.
    • Select the gamertag that you want to delete.
    • Press delete.
    Note: You can delete the profiles only or you can delete both the profiles and items (the associated saved games and achievements).

    No she doesn't need her own profile or gold membership, she just signs in as a guest while logged into your account.

    You would have to contact support. They should be able to cancel the subscription and give you a token for the remaining time to add to the correct account. 1-800-4my-xbox if you're in the US/Canada or

    Transfer a profile with live gold from an xbox to another xbox! Please, help me

    Not sure I got what you are asking, but if you just want to move your gamertag (profile with the live subscription) you can either move it with a usb or redownload it with recover profile when you selective profiles. The gamertag(profile) should be able
    to access live since it was a gold subscription. If you want to permanently use this new xbox as your primary, you can transfer your all your licenses under account and license transfer.

    Parental Account Locked Out - Asking for Help - AGAIN!!

    Email that you need to create a new account? Did it have any link to contact the Live team in any of the emails? You shouldn't need to create a new Live account.

    There is a way to move the gamer tag over, however you would need the password from the Live account the gamertag is established under.

    Hi,

    You're getting that error because you're trying to sign up for Xbox LIVE using an e-mail that's already in use with your account. What you'd need to do is download your profile. To do so please visit this page here and follow the instructions under "Download
    Xbox LIVE Profile".
