    Problem connecting to a parent account


    For some reason, I disconnected from my Xbox 360 parent account (my mom's). Now whenever we try to add a new parent account and enter her email, it says it is not available. It will not let me sign into Xbox Live unless I do this, which it's not letting
    me. Any suggestions?

    :)

    Wrong age?

    Also I try connecting it to when of my other accounts to act like a parent account I'm unable to connect it as it gives me an error (error 801540FE) what does that mean?

    Well, if you no longer have access to the email or password, then you should try to feel out this form
    Recover your account and let us know if that helps. Problem connecting to a parent account :)

    Control parental

    Is this connected to 360 xbox parental controls or did you forgot the parental account connected to your child account?

    Can't add son to Family Plan?!

    When the Xbox asks for the email address connected to the child account put in the parents email address/password instead and it will work (parents email address being the one used to verify the child's account when it was first created or to accept changes
    to the child account), I think this only happens when the parent email address is not the same as the primary account holders email address. I have just had this problem tonight. Xbox support told me of this and it worked first time

    Parent account problem

    You have the parental email addresse written down, right? If not, go to the Xbox and try to accept the Terms of Use and it will be shown to you.

    1) Take that to
    http://account.live.com/password/reset
    for the password reset

    2) If you can't reset it, go to
    http://account.live.com/acsr
    SAVE THE EMAILS SENT TO YOU

    3) If that fails, contact Support (1-800-4MY-XBOX Option 2 in the US et Canada) and provide them with the Console ID number from
    Settings | System | Console Settings | System Info (it's on the 2nd line) and the reference number from the email sent to you in Step 3, and submit a Password Reset Request. However, it is faster to have the Agent call you by going to

    http://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us?xr=footnav#0:6:3
    (and if you're not in the US, replace that with your country code, e.g., CA for Canada).

    parent account problem

    Hey there ASIM! Let's see what we can do to get things sorted.

    If you're 23 it sounds like you need to promote your account to an adult account (like Nicki suggested). However, since you aren't sure which account is designated as the parent account,
    the next course of action would be to use the
    Contact Us
    page to set up a support call with an account specialist who will be able to go through your options with you.


    Let us know if you have any questions. =)
