moving xbox live account to new xbox.

Hi there,

yes that is possible, but it will require a few steps.

Because currenlty on the new outlook account there is due to the use via windows Phone a xbox live account present.

That will first need to be deleted before you will be able to move your current xbox live account to it.

This link will explain the steps on how to switch the Microsoft Account connected to a xbox live account.

-

The steps are:

1. download the xbox live account on the outlook account to the xbox console, see this link for the how to:

support.xbox.com/.../profile-move-delete

2. wait 30 days. An account can only be moved to a different MS account when it has been on a console for at least 30 days without being downloaded

3. Move the xbox live account on the outlook account to a new (temporary) Microsoft account. This will free up the outlook account from any xbox live account. Be sure to turn the Phone off, because that could generate a new xbox live account again.

4.Move your currenlty xbox live account to the new outlook account.

I hope that makes some sense

If there are any questions just let us know.

Hi there,

you can NOT delete a xbox live account, you can only move it to a different Microsoft Account.

So you will need to move that unwanted xbox live account to a new (temporary) Microsoft Account and after that you will be able to move your GT (xbox live account) to that Microsoft Account.

Be aware that you can only move a xbox live account to a different Microsoft Acocunt when it has been on a console for at least 30 days, without it being downloaded.

This link explains on how to move a xbox live account to a different Microsoft Account:

No it won't be, as a microsoft account/xbox account can't be deleted (off the microsoft servers) via xbox. It will just remove it from your old xbox.

If this helped please like the reply

Hi there,

Why the live account was created I can't say, maybe a device with that microsoft was account to use xbox music while there wasn't a xbox live account attached, that will cause one to be generated, but that is just a guess.

-

but to be able to change your account back to your 'old' email you will first move that new account (player63063....) to a new microsoft account (without a xbox live profile)

See the steps here:

support.xbox.com/.../manage-microsoft-account "Can I switch my gamertag to a different Microsoft account?"

Whenever that new xbox live account is moved, you will be able to use that account for your xbox live account.

Let us know the results

Hi there,

you can't delete an xbox live account, but the thing you will need to do is to move that xbox live account to another Microsoft Account (which can be closed afterwards). This will free up the outlook account and you should be able to move your xbox live
account to that outlook account.

Just be sure that you do not use the outlook account on a windows Phone or windows 8 device while transferring, since this will generate a xbox live account when none is present.

So, use the following steps:

1. Download the xbox live account on the outlook account to the xbox console

2. wait 30 days, then move that xbox live account to another (new temporary) Microsoft account. An xbox live account can only be moved when it has been on a console for at least 30 days without being downloaded. Be sure not to use any windows device with
your outlook account connected when doing these steps.

3. Move your xbox live account to the outlook account.
