    I'm the only one on my account, so why can't i buy things?


    Hello! As I mentioned in my subject, I am the only one on my account, and family account, but I still can't buy things. I was trying to buy Minecraft Java Edition, but it said that I was restricted on buying it due to a guardian restriction. As mentioned, I am the only one on the family. How can i fix this?

    Hi, Finley Eder,

    I hope you are doing well today. Welcome to the Xbox Community. Thank you for reaching out to Xbox Forums. I see that you cannot make any purchases due to guardian restrictions. I am happy to help and suggest some troubleshooting steps to help you resolve this problem.

    Gaming for the whole family, This link will help you remove yourself from the Family group. Once you click on the link, scroll down to Manage your Family group and click Remove yourself.

    Check the family settings on your console

    • On your controller, press the middle Xbox button (Guide Button)
    • go to settings
    • Then go to general
    • select online Safety & family
    • Select Family settings and see if they are good to go
    Sometimes you have to remove yourself from the family group and set up anew. This issue can also happen when your account is part of someone else's family account.

    I hope these suggestions help! If this answers your question, please mark the thread as "Answered."

    Problem with gift code

    Yes, but I only used the code one time, the next thing I did was look for the products in the list and there was Minecraft... the game appear like a buy and the prices was 0$ because was a gift, a curious thing is that I try to make a new account and I
    try to put my Gmail and the account was created so I follow the next steps to verify and all of this things but when I try to enter again to this account says that the account doesn't exist… so I guess that is a logic thing because Microsoft emails are from
    Hotmail adress but I don't know why I can créate that account but now I can't use it… I'm sure that the code is correct because I redeemed but I'm confuse… and now I have that Gmail account and a Hotmail account… I know that everything sounds confuse but I
    want to know what happen with that code and I don´t know if its possible.

    Redeemed a Microsoft gift card to the wrong account

    I know of that option but I bought those cards to buy some "gold" for a specific game, and for my understanding that game is tied on the account so I can't used the credits to buy on my kid account. I know I made the mistake and I should educate myself more,
    but I also think the whole thing is kind of silly. Thats my Xbox these are my accounts and Microsoft will get payed anyway. I'm not a gamer and I didn't know it was so complicated, or maybe I'm to old to understand all this policies. I'm cool with everybody
    but one thing is sure this is the first and it will be the last

    When the game Max Curse of Brotherhood will be avaliable to purchase in my country?

    Xbox 360 is region Lock and I can buy games not released on my region with my US Account and play without problems with my Brazilian account without been logged with my US Account.

    What I'm asking here is why I can't buy this game if Xbox One is region free.

    Start-up logo flashes for half a second, console restarts (Xbox 360 S)

    Yeah, I'm sure I'm going to have to return it. I have never heard of anything like this happening, either, and I can't find anything about this on the Internet. That's why I find this whole thing so unbelievably unlucky on my part, it seems like I'm the
    only one with this problem and it happened immediately.
