How can I sign into a child's profile of a Microsoft family account on Nintendo Switch...

Hello!

I'm an independent advisor and a member of the Xbox Community just like you.

I will be glad to help you.

Each Nintendo account is associated to a Microsoft account, the same Microsoft account cannot be associated to several Nintendo accounts.

If you are looking for members of your household to use your Nintento account licenses, for example to play Minecraft, you should check with Nintendo support to see if this is possible. You can do so at this website

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/

Note: This is a non-Microsoft website. The page appears to be providing accurate, safe information. Watch out for ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

Best Regards.

Sorry to hear it. It sounds like your account is a child account. The parent account would need to grant access at
https://account.microsoft.com/family

How can I add the Nintendo switch console in the list of devices and apply the new grants? My daughter is logged in (Minecraft) using her xbox account but no new device appears here.

Hello,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We understand that you're having trouble connecting your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch. It sounds like you may have accidentally clicked on the Xbox sign-in page instead of the Nintendo Switch sign-in page.



To connect your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch, please follow these steps:



1. On your Nintendo Switch, go to System Settings > Users > Add User.

2. Create a new user account and select "Sign in using a Microsoft account."

3. Follow the prompts to sign in to your Microsoft account and link it to your Nintendo Switch.



If you continue to have trouble, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist you further.

Sincerely,



Microsoft Community Moderator

Hi again Elixir,

You can try changing it from the internet. Here how:

Change your child’s Xbox privacy and online safety settings
Applies to: Xbox OneMicrosoft account

Only a parent using the Microsoft family group feature can change Xbox privacy and online safety settings for a child account. If you're having trouble changing your child's settings, make sure your Microsoft account is a parent account in a family group.
See whether you're listed as a child or an adult in a family group by signing in at account.microsoft.com/family. To change your child's settings:

• Sign in to the Xbox settings page with the parent’s Microsoft account. You may be asked to verify that you're the account owner. If you're having issues
  signing in to a Microsoft account, go to Microsoft account help.
• Choose the gamertag for your child's account. If you want to update the privacy and online safety settings for the parent or adult account, choose that gamertag instead.
• Select the Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab,
  review the settings currently in place, and then update those you want to change.
• Select Save before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't save the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved.
• Have your child sign in and sign out of their account to make the changes take effect.
