  1. Incorrect profile and gamertag


    this a frequent problem I have with my xbox account, ive had my account for several years and every time I go to retrieve it on any xbox it gives me an incorrect and empty profile and gamertag that is not me, that ive never linked to any of my email accounts
    and it is not a secondary account as I have no secondary, in fact, the profile that the system thinks I'm trying to retrieve is the one I'm posting this from. I was going to use the live chat feature to solve this issue but apparently you guys cant get that
    right either...a quick and detailed response to my continuous issue with this would be very much appreciated.

    :)

    are you sure you are using the correct email account for gamertag?

    if you use the incorrect details, it may have created a new profile for you

    is incorrect and ive already reset my password on the email that's associated with my profile so i don't understand what the problem is? help please!

    Daunguard will not work!

    Zoobabwa, that is incorrect.

    DLC can be accessed by any profile on the console that originally downloaded it. Sometimes we run into situations like this current one where problems arise, but it's not due to using different gamertags.

    Xbox 360 Live won't work...

    When you try and download your profile on the 360 what does it say?

    Your credentials are incorrect? in other words your password is incorrect?

    Is it giving you any sort of error message?

    Have you ever played online with that profile on the 360?

    The 360s did not require you to have a MS account like the Ones do and you could have a local profile. If this is the case for your account then you would not be able to put your current MS account on that profile on the 360 you can put another one on there
    and here is a link that will give you directions on how to do that.

    Incorrect Gamertag

    Hi Teeniest Mango3,

    Look on your XBOX console and see if the emails are the same. When you log on go to the home screen by hitting the Guide button ( the center button) on your controller and select xbox home. while there, watch the top right of your screen and the email and
    your gamertag will scroll there.

    If the emails are the same, you will need to contact phone support at 1-800-4MYXBOX because you will need to have it looked at by an agent.

    If the emails are different, then that is why you see 2 different gamer tags.

    Incorrect Gamertag

    Hello,

    Please confirm that the e-mail you registered your gamertag "tartanspringbok" is spelled exactly as you're typing it in on Xbox.com. You can do this by going to your Xbox 360 Dashboard > Settings > Account > 3rd Tab (Account Information) > Account Security
    > Looking to the right of the screen you should see the Microsoft Account (e-mail) that is associated with your gamertag. Please make sure that you check that e-mail for all spelling errors as it does happen sometimes where people will misspell something while
    creating the account.

    If everything above is exactly as you're logging into Xbox.com with then you'll need to
    contact phone support for further assistance.
