  1. How do I change my child's email address for their xbox account?


    How do I change my child's email address for their xbox account? None of the previous threads answers this question as it has since changed. Please include step by step instructions. Under the Family Settings, there's only these options: Edit profile picture, Manage consent, Remove from family group. There are no other options to change the email address. It's extremely frustrating trying to figure out this seemingly easy task. My kid is going to lose all of his gaming history if I don't change his email asap.

    Thank you is it possible to change the email address associated with the account? For example- the account is with my email address. Could i change it to my childs email address? Then create another account with my email address and add his account
    to the family?

    separating accounts

    you cannot transfer games/DLC or save from one account to another but you can change the account email address. It can be a multi-step process however I do not know that you can make an account a child account once validated as an adult, if that's what
    you want to do.

    Add an email address verify it works

    update primary email address, make sure it works

    Remove old email address.

    EA - Star Wars Battlefront Online Features Age Restriction?

    How do you log into your Child's EA account? When I created the EA account on the Xbox, on the Home Screen of SWB, I was asked to put in my own email address (which is logical) for verification/parental consent purposes, since EA already knew the account
    would be for a minor (I guess based of the Xbox Live/gamertag info). I then created a username and password for the account and submitted. Once I received the email from EA/Origin, I verified that I was the parent/guardian and that was that. Not once during
    did the process did it ask for my child's email address or age.

    When you go to ea.com to login, it asks for an email address and not a username. Since no email was assigned to my child's account, I cannot log into the account. If I use the username and password, I get an "Invalid email address" error message. EA did
    not send any information or provide a means to me to manage the child account.

    I would love to change the age on just the EA account, but, I do not think it is feasible. I read on another forum that I need to change the age on the Xbox Live account and then create a new EA account that is linked to the "now instantly >13 yr old child"
    Xbox Live account. Not worth it and I do not want to give my child that much control. We can play online on my account. My child is much better than this old man and I can level up faster.

    Thanks again for all the info.

    How do I change my child's email address for their xbox account?

    I understand your annoyance, dear, but I would like to tell you the following: currently, if a person opens an account that in the long run is an account of trophies and achievements obtained like someone who claims to have a gifted account, of course it is always recommended that that account be separate and unique. For that person, as a player and independent advisor I handle very little information on accounts or modifications, it would be best for you to contact Microsoft support and wait for a concise response.
