    I noticed I associated a wrong email, now it tells me to go to www.xbox.com/AccountSwap


    I created a email address because xBox live was not allowing me to associate my hotmail.com address to xBox Live on the xBox 360. I noticed I entered the information inccorectly so I am now trying to use a different eMail address I have used on for my Games
    for windows live. Now I am recieving Login message "Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account. For more info, go to Xbox.com/AccountSwap"

    What the Hell, if it works for Games for Windows Live why can't I use it for xBox360? Isn't that the whole purpose Microsoft has the option to use one email for multipule devices, to allow migration of saved games? This all feel ignorant!

    :)

    Account transfer clarification

    Ok I followed the steps but now I have a new problem. At the end where you try to confirm changing the associated email, I get this message : "Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account right now. For more info, go to Xbox.com/AccountSwap." What is causing
    this? This is the first time I have ever even attempted an account transfer.

    How to relink my Xbox Live Account?

    `Mahovan8426` is what appears on my Microsoft Account. I changed it a few days ago to `Mahovan8426` from whatever random name Microsoft assigned me.

    Anyways, I logged into my Xbox 360, and found the email associated with that account. I was able to log into that account. After trying to switch my account via the Xbox, it tells me to go to `xbox.com/AccountSwap`, but that send me to a `Forgot Account` page. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-profile/manage-account/forgot-microsoft-account-solution

    How to delete old email address

    Hi again. I am having more problems. The email address I wanted to migrate to was already linked to an old Gamertag that was never used. So I made a new Microsoft Account to switch it to, per the instructions on the page Mister Ohnaka said to use. I screwed
    up and switched the wrong account. Now when I try to move it, it says "Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account right now. For more information, go to Xbox.com/AccountSwap." That page tells me nothing. I have another Microsoft Account that is NOT linked
    to Live ready to go so I can do all the swapping if someone can tell me what is wrong.

    Clarification: If you look at the steps on that paged Mister Ohnaka linked to, look at step 3. Instead of having Microsoft Account 1 free, I messed up and made Microsoft Account 2 free, and now I can't move Gamertag A to facilitate the swap.

    Xbox Live Account Hacked with MS points and Gold purchased and FIFA 12 achievements unlocked not by me! HELP!

    The agent who helped me made a mistake on setting up the claim. I called yesterday since it was going on 5 days and a new agent told me that the claim was rejected because my contact email I supplied them was already associated with my xbox account.. The
    first agent did not tell me that when I gave them the email. So I actually went ahead and made a new email just for them to contact me on now on the new claim they started. Now the waiting game continues. I hate this!! I just want to get back on live. I've
    done nothing wrong. :(!!
