    How to make an adult account into a child.


    My kids has always just used my account since he never played alone or in his room. Now that he is a little older and has a setup in his own room and am wanting to set him up a child in the MS family so I can monitor and set screen time limits. He really
    wants to keep the original account as it has all his gamertag and accomplishments, so I setup another adult account and linked them. I have changed the birthday and name on the original to his now so it should be a child, but it is still showing as an adult.
    It did go through prompts when I was changing the info that made me think it was going to change it, and did have the new adult account give permission to allow the new account to change, but it still shows as an adult and wont let me set screen times for
    the parent account. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Changing Child Account Into Adult Account: How Do I Do It?

    How do you change a child account into an adult account? I'm 20 Years Old now, and I can't sign up for Netflix. I made sure my age was accurate on Hotmail, and nothing worked. How do you sign up for Netflix if you have a Child Account? And if you can't,

    You would have to create a new child account and to be able to set the parental controls. Changing the birthdate on the MS account does not transfer over to the Xbox account. Unfortunately no progress or Gamerscore would be able to transfer to the new account
    should you create it.

    Parental control settings

    I can't remember 100% but I am sure whoever set up the child account can change it. Like if you made an adult account on the xbox before making the child account that adult account can change wether the child account is a child account or and adult one.
    I will just test this out myself now and post how it went

    Black Ops 3 "This current profile is not allowed to play on Xbox Live"

    Make sure that you still have a valid Xbox Live gold membership. Now, if you're a child account, sign into the parent account on your Xbox One and once signed in, go to Settings > All Settings > Accounts > Family > select the child account > Privacy and
    online safety. Make sure to set it to adult default. If it's already set to that settings, set it to child then save then switch it back to adult and save. That's how you refresh the restriction of the child account.

    how to make child xbox account adult

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community and Happy New Year.

    Hello Jake, I see that it has two questions, the first unfortunately it is not possible to turn a child account into an adult, what you must do in these cases is to place your account in a family and give the permissions for that account.

    As for the Apple Ear buds they are not compatible with the Xbox standard so you will not be able to use the Microphone.
