Minecraft Xbox 360 Achievements not synced to Xbox Live, why?

yes and if the xbox live on the 360 shut down .. i wont be able to go online and sync them thats why am asking

You don't have to go online to sync xbox 360 achievements.Achievements on the 360 are linked to your account only so it doesn't matter if you are connected to live or not in order to unlock them.

Xbox one games achievements are linked to your account & the cloud servers to prevent Gamerscore modding which is why you can only unlock a limited amount offline.

Even if they did shut down the xbox 360 live servers you would still be able to unlock achievements apart from online only (multiplayer) achievements.

My secondary profile didn't connect to xbox live for 3 years on the 360 & had about 25000 Gamerscore on it before I connected to xbox live.The only thing that was different was that those achievements I earnt offline didn't have a date & time stamp on them.

Hey Buttercup III,

Thanks for reaching out to us today! I'd be happy to help.

I would first suggest looking over this
article going over common problems with achievements and some solutions to try and fix it.

The article is for Xbox One but some of the steps are to check your progress on Xbox.com

I would also suggest going over to
https://www.trueachievements.com/ to also check your progress there to see if they were unlocked.

Sometimes if the achievements don't unlock it's because of some synchronicity issues between the Xbox and Xbox Live. Give your internet a restart as well to reconnect to the servers.

Let us know if that helps!

Hi byNeizo,

At any point in time did you unlock these achievements while offline on the Xbox 360?

Achievements are synced over Xbox Live so if you unlocked achievements on the old Xbox 360 while offline, then your progress will not be reflected if you get a new console or on True Achievement website.

Achievements work differently on the xbox 360 than they do on the xbox one.

Apart from multiplayer achievements you can earn any achievements offline on the 360,they just wont have a time/date stamp.On the xbox one you can only earn a limited amount offline before you need to connect to live & "sync" those achievements to the cloud.

It's strange because there is nothing there that says Microsoft is shutting down achievement syncing, just the marketplace being shutdown and less support services for it which is why it's confusing that achievements across 7, 8 and 8.1 aren't syncing.

Like Games For Windows Live was shut down years ago yet you can still earn and sync achievements with your xbox live profile to this day, so I don't understand why you can't all of a sudden on wp.

Thanks for replying though, I hope the issue gets resolved soon.
