Moving DLC from a deleted account?

lydiamorris · Jun 11, 2017

Okay so long story short, several years ago I had a Gamertag tied to an email address that my parents deleted without telling me. (Don't ask, I'm not entirely sure why either) I couldn't get into this account at all as the password reset got sent to the
deleted email, and I couldn't access it. I continued using my 360 with a new account which was fine as I could still access all the DLC I'd bought with my old account.

I've now got an Xbox One and I was wondering if there's any way to transfer the DLC from the deleted account onto it? As the files are all there on my 360's hard drive, but I obviously can't sign into the account on the Xbox One to sync the DLC across.

Who else is running out of their space on their HD?

I am completely out of room on my HDD. I find myself typically having to move stuff around and delete DLC just to make it by. My problem is when I download a game, even if I only play it once, I can't bring myself to delete it. For me it's hard enough having to delete DLC. The way I see it, if the day should come where I want to play the game again I won't have to redownload anything.

External Harddrive on XBox One - Odd thing happening

If this is in the wrong place let me know and I can re post this.

So I just picked up my WD My book External Drive to use with my xbox one and an odd thing is happening. I started moving my games over to the drive and when I choose "Move" it sends the game over to the external drive so it's no longer on the system's hard drive. However, all the additional content (DLC, additional episodes) gets copied so that it's now on both the external and the xbox drive, essentially taking up double the space. I'm definatley selecting the "Move" option, especially since the game itself it moving over and just the add-ons are being copied. Also, I can't delete the add-ons from the xbox one hard drive once they get copied over but it will let me delete the copy made to the external dirve.
So my questions are a) is that normal to no be able to Move add-ons and b) If I delete the copies from my external drive and leave them on my internal drive, when I boot up the game from the extenal drive will it find my dlc on the internal drive?
Sorry for the lengthy explanation, just wanted to be clear. Thanks for the help!

You'd have to be able to sign into the account again in order to do so, so no.

If I understand your issue, you created account A years ago. Then created account B with your current email address. Now you want the original account A to be on the email address associated with account B.

-

If the above is correct, you can move account A to the address of account B by following the steps here:

support.xbox.com/.../switch-gamertag-to-different-microsoft-account

You will need a third email address so you can do all the switching.

Please let me know if any of this helps, or if I didn't understand the issue properly.

Hi there,

please double check if there are any corrupt or incomplete files present on the storage device.

If that is the case please delete the DLC and remove those corrupt/incomplete files before downloading the DLC again.

If that isn't the case please try removing your profile (Profile only) from the console, clear the cache of the console, restart the console and download your profile again. be sure that you know the credentials for your account before you delete profile.

See this link on how to remove a profile:
support.xbox.com/.../profile-move-delete

let us know the results

Sorry, but DLC is tied to the account that purchased it. However, I would recommend contacting the email provider to see if they can reactivate your account. From there you'll be able to change the password associated with it.

Good luck.
