  1. Restricting Account Access


    Is there any way that I can make my Xbox the only Xbox on which my account can be signed into? One of my friends accounts recently got hacked so I wanted to take extra precautions. The reason I would want this is because I only use 1 Xbox, and it would be
    nice to make it so if my account were hacked then it couldn't be accessed anywhere else.

    :)

    have you checked the security proofs on your account @ account.live.com? It may be an issue with having the lack of security on the account and is restricting your online access.

    Gold on 360 and One

    I'm having some issues at the moment with Fifa 14 and multiple gold accounts on the XB1.

    My account with Gold is on the XB1, my son who has XB360 in his bedroom also has gold. But after installing FIFA14 under my profile and then adding my sons XBL gold account, I can access the online part of the game, but my son gets the following message:

    "your gamer profile does not have the correct permissions to access this feature"

    Should we both have access to FIFA14 online? Or is it restricted to the profile that downloaded it?
     
  4. Restricting Account Access

    One thing you can do is require the password to be entered upon sign in. Here's how to change that setting: Change Your Sign-In Preferences on Your Xbox One

    You can also add the two-factor authentication to your account (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12408/microsoft-account-about-two-step-verification).

    And use an authenticator app that can alert you when your account is logged into on an untrusted device by requiring the request to be approved before the account is fully logged in.

    Restricted Account Access

    Hey there, if your account is eligible for a case review you can do that by heading over to the
    Enforcement website. If it is not; you will need to wait for the full duration of your suspension.

    Good luck in getting your issue resolved.

    Parental controlled profiles?

    I think it's possible it sets a global restriction, but when you try to access that content it asks for the parental passcode. As such, the two parental accounts would be able to access the restricted content by knowing the passcode whereas the minors' accounts
    could not.
