    Issue with Privacy and Content Settings - At My Wit's End


    Hello,

    I am having issues with my privacy settings and getting them to update. I discovered the issue when I learned I can no longer play multiplayer on No Man's Sky on my xbox (or my wife's xbox). She is able to access it without any issues.

    I get an error message when she sends me an invite that I need to allow multiplayer in my privacy settings. When I checked the settings it was already set to allow. I have reset my xbox, logged in on my wife's xbox, redone all of my privacy settings to allow everything, and visited the support site. I was directed to family settings but when I click the content filter hyperlink I'm taken to a help page that tells me to go to family settings and click on content filters.

    I feel like I am being gaslit by my xbox. Please help!

    :)

    Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent adviser.

    Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

    I understand you need help on your privacy settings problem.

    I believe the issue here is with the account itself.

    Please check if the account is a child account by checking the DOB through your profile:

    https://account.microsoft.com/profile

    If it is below 21 years old, you might need to change it if it was set up incorrectly.

    But first, you must remove the account under the family by logging in to your wife's account to the family settings page:

    https://account.microsoft.com/family

    Once removed, you may now be able to change the DOB to the correct one then you can access the privacy settings again and just toggle to not allow then allow then wait for within a few hours to have the profile updated and try the game again.

    Hope that helps!

    I have an Xbox Gold Memebership and WWE '12 Online Axxess, so why can't I access the Community Creations?

    Hey CMH, you can double check that content setting by logging into Xbox.com, then going to My Account > Privacy and Online Settings. 'Member content' should be listed at the end of the page, second to last. :) As for re-downloading your profile, you can
    do so simply by selecting 'download profile' in the sign-in menu. Please let me know if this helps!

    At my wits end (Begging for help)

    Hello,

    Well, if your account was hacked as you say you don't have it in your own possession anymore, you will need to contact phone support and have them start an unauthorized claim ticket on your behalf. They will ask you a whole slew of questions in regards to the
    gamertag, your console (serial number, console id), along with the date this occurred and a lot of other things that well, only the original account owner would know. An address now a days isn't just that simple to retrieve an account and a lot more information
    is required than just that.

    To contact phone support to start an unauthorized claim ticket, please click this link
    here.

    As far as your issue with your Outlook account, you have to understand that a Microsoft Account has many different services tied to it and it's a completely different department than Xbox LIVE. Anything to do with a Microsoft Account or questions in regards
    to one needs to be asked here
    or by filling out that account recovery form which you've already done.

    There's really nothing more we would personally be able to do for you in regards to this matter as it seems to be a Microsoft Account issue, and the hacking of the gamertag seems to an issue that customer service needs to fill out that claim ticket for on your
    behalf.

    Issues with Privacy Settings.

    UPDATE: After a little bit of searching around, I have discovered that there is an adult account linked to mine, but it isn't an account which I am familiar of. Is there a way to remove the link between the adult account and mine without accessing the adult
    account?
