How do you make an xbox 360 account (xbox live) To xbox one?

Hi

Nothing special is required all you need to do is log into an Xbox One console using the account you used on the 360 and it will recognize your live account.

how do you connect your xbox live account to your xbox 360?

I have the same question. On the Xbox 360 you could create accounts there were not tied to Xbox live. This allowed my guests to have their own avatars and play games with their own local profiles.

How do you do this on the Xbox One? Think of friends of my children who do not have email or Xbox live accounts.

It's pretty annoying that you can't make an offline account at all, I liked how it worked on the Xbox 360 where you could make a local account and then have an option to convert it to an Xbox Live account at a later date.

Do you have a valid Credit/Debit card on the account? You need one on the account to make the purchase

You can not use xbox live gift card currency for backwards compatible games unless you are doing it from the xbox 360 console itself.

Is your account a child account? Child accounts can not purchase 360 backward compatible games.
