    How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile

    Xbox LIVE password overview

    It is possible to download your Xbox LIVE profile to several different consoles. You may need to do this if you have more than one Xbox 360 console, or you want to play games at a friend's house. In such a situation, you may want to password protect your Xbox LIVE account so that no one else can sign in using your profile.

    Set the console to remember your password

    Once you have downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to a console, you will be asked if you want the console to remember your password. The Remember Password option is usually off by default. This means that you will be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE.

    If you don't want to be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE, select the Remember Password option.

    Change the password protection on your profile

    You are required to set the Remember Password option after you download your Xbox LIVE profile. However, you can change the password protection on your Xbox LIVE profile any time.

    If you don't need a password to sign in:

    Sign into your Xbox LIVE profile. After you have entered your Microsoft account password, select the Remember Password option.

    If you choose the Remember Password option, you will not be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

    If you need a password to sign in:

    You can restrict access to your Xbox LIVE profile on any console using your Microsoft account password.

    Steps to follow

    1) Sign in using your Xbox LIVE gamertag.

    2) Under Settings, select Account and then Account Security

    3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

    4) Select Require Password Here

    You will be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

    How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile remotely

    If you downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to another console and it is not password protected, or someone has compromised your password, you can change the password from a remote location so that no one else can access your profile.

    Change your Microsoft account

    1) Sign into accounts.live.com using your Microsoft account.

    2) Go to Account Information and, next to Password, click Change.

    You can also use your console to change your Microsoft account password.

    Note: If the Xbox LIVE profile you downloaded does not require a password to sign in (You selected the Remember Password option), you will not be able to restrict someone from signing into your Xbox profile even if you change your Microsoft account password.

    You can remove your Microsoft account password so that other people cannot access your Xbox profile on other consoles. This will ensure that a password is required before signing into your Xbox profile.

    Remotely set a profile password from a computer:

    1) Sign into your Xbox LIVE account.

    2) Under Settings, select Account, and then Account Security

    3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

    4) Select On All Other Consoles.

    Once you have done this, a password will be required to sign into your Xbox LIVE profile on all other consoles.

  3. need help

    hello there

    it looks like either someone hacked the account or the account is on another xbox

    what you need to do is change the password on your daughter's profile by going here
    account.live.com/ChangePassword.aspx oh and remember some of the info of the profile when you or your daughter sign up for it

    another way is :

    Use your Xbox console to change your Microsoft account password

    You can change your Microsoft account password from your Xbox console. You have to be connected to Xbox LIVE and have your current password ready.

    Sign in using your Xbox LIVE gamertag.

    Go to Settings and select Account.

    Scroll right to Your Information and select Account Security.

    Select Change Password.

    Enter your current password, enter your new password (twice), and then select Change Now. If you want to save the password so you can use it to sign in to other Microsoft services, select Yes when you are prompted to do so.

    Is there a way to change your homeshare password and sign everyone out of using the homeshare?

    The sharing option is dependent on your Home setting, not your password. So changing your password would not affect anything. If you have a different console set as your Home, you would need to set your own console as your Home and that would remove it from
    the other console.

    What error does your son get on the Home console when he tries to play?

    One thing to test would be to get a friend to sign in or to create another Microsoft account (preferably an adult account) to log in with and see if that account can access the entitlements on the Home console. It might be child account settings preventing
    access to those features.

    Gameshare

    homesharing is for the home only, not so you can share games with friends all over, buy the games like the rest of us. doing what your doing will lead to a perm ban.
