  1. Privacy settings not working


    I'm attempting to change my setting so other players can see my motto/bio but not see my friends (i don't mind if they see follower number) but even if I allow everybody to see EVERYTHING other than friends, it shows absolutely nothing. Is there something
    I should be doing to fix this

    Privacy and online safety settings not working

    If you are indeed on the adult account in the family you should be able to change that setting with no problem.

    I would suggest another browser.

    On your adult account go here
    https://account.xbox.com/Settings
    and click on the child's account and allow the option on the first page called "Share stuff people make (Xbox 360: Member Content)" to everyone (must be everyone). Also, on the first page, "Others can communicate with voice,
    text, or invites" to Friends or Everybody. And on the xbox one/windows 10 tab the second option down, "Join multiplayer games", enable that. And then log out and in on the account in question on the console/device and that account can play online.

    If it still does not work on multiple browsers please contact xbox support in a live chat here:

    Hey there!

    Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, an Independent Advisor. I'm sorry you are experiencing this on your Xbox privacy settings. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    It seems we have been receiving a lot of similar cases lately. Based on your description, it might be possible that the system has detected that your Microsoft account is a child account. A child account can't manage its own privacy settings, you will need assistance from an adult account to manage its settings.

    You can check this link to learn more about family group roles:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-bil...

    NOTE: A child account is registered on the birthdate 21 years old and below upon the account's first creation while an adult account is registered on the birthdate 22 years old and older.

    For us to isolate the issue, kindly try to use an adult Microsoft account, or if you don't have one create an adult Microsoft account on account.microsoft.com

    NOTE: Make sure that the account's birthdate is registered as 22 years old or older.

    Then have the adult account sign in on account.microsoft.com > go to Family > then add your main/child account as a "Family Member"

    NOTE: Please ensure that your adult account should be the "Organizer" and your main/child account is the "Family Member" to make this work.

    Once you're done, try to manage your child account's privacy settings using your adult account. Here's how:

    An organizer in an Xbox family group can manage settings for members who are in the family group. Kids can only see (and not manage) their own settings.

    Sign in to your adult Microsoft account at Xbox.com.

    Select your Gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

    Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & online safety.

    NOTE: Because you’re accessing sensitive info, you may have to enter your password or PIN.

    Select the gamertag for the child/main account that you want to manage.

    Select either the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

    Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

    NOTE: You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved.

    Have the member sign in and then sign out of their account on the console to make sure the changes take effect.

    Please take your time and let me know if it works.

    Thank you for the information.

    There seem to be no issues with the Xbox Live server as well. The only best option is to report this directly to the Xbox team to make sure this case will be properly investigated and possibly fixed. You can report them using the Xbox "report a problem app":

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/xbox-report-a...

    As for an alternative option, in case you need to review when it's necessary to reach out to Microsoft Xbox support. Please visit this link:

    Thank you for your kindness and patience. I hope you have a great day!
