    nephew changed gamertag can't access on my console without downloading new profile ...


    my nephew changed his gamertag today but when i look on my profiles to sign in with it still has his old name. when i tried to log onto his account to test if it would update on its own i get the error "Sorry, this profile can't connect to Xbox Live on
    this console. To fix, download it again. "

    i am worried about his saved games. all the saves on my console are tied to his old gamertag what is going to happen to them if i download his new profile? will they automatically change to his new account name? am i going to have to somehow copy and paste
    the saves to the new account somehow? i'm not sure how this is going to work. i would be really sad if he lost all his saves on my console because he changed his gamertag.

    :)

  2. Downloading Profile Problems

    I'm getting error code 80151006. This happened when I changed my gamertag on my new 360. My old gamertag and profile downloaded just fine on the new console but now that I changed it I can't download it. I've also tried to download my profile with my new
    gamertag on my old console, it also will not download and I get the same error code.

    Ran into an issue with backwards compatible games. (Please Help.)

    It gives you an option to download new profile (Gamertag). It will have you enter your email address and password, and everything should be there. I changed my Gamertag last week and everything worked perfectly fine.

    Hello muteownz! So you can move game save files between gamer profiles. I found a youtube video to shows you how
    [mod removed] So you wont worry about losing anything when you download your profile.

    @ lenzio,saves are tied to one profile & can't be moved to another.What they are doing in the video you posted a link to is strictly against the ToU/CoC & will result in a ban.

    @muteownz sharing accounts & log in details is also against the ToU/CoC

    I have asked for the link to be removed.

    Just remember,using any type of outside software to do something with your profile is a bannable offence

    Cannot change ms account

    So I see that this is your situation right now:

    Your Microsoft Account - tied to - Your nephews gamertag

    Your nephews Microsoft account - tied to - nothing

    Bogus Microsoft account - tied to - gamertag your nephew accidentally signed up for

    And you're stuck trying to move your nephew's gamertag to his Microsoft account.

    Are you getting this message? "Sorry, we can't change your Microsoft account right now."?

    Assuming it's been over 30 days since any profile was downloaded and any gamertag transfer, I can only guess that currency might be an issue, because one of the requirements I've found is that to move a gamertag, you must use up all of the currency on that
    account. So is there any unused currency left on your nephew's account?
