    Signing into an Xbox account on a different Xbox.


    For the past two years I have faced this same problem. My xbox gamertag/account is set up with an outlook account. I saw this by checking in the settings. When I would try to sign in on the microsoft website with that outlook email I would be told that
    it didn’t exist. The same thing happens when I would try to add my account to xbox it would just lead me to create an account with that email. So it says that account doesn’t exist when I can clearly see on my xbox that my xbox account uses that email, but
    everything still says it doesn’t exist. So I created an account with that email, proving tjat the email does exist but I can’t access the account already using that email with all of my xbox hours. When I created an account it is just a new account. Because
    of this I can not sign in with my xbox account on any other xbox besides the one the account was created on. Does anyone have a fix?

    :)

    Xbox gamertag change error.

    Hi Fayed,

    You can sign in with a different account.

    How do I sign in with a different gamertag? What if I want to sign in to the Xbox app or a game with a different Xbox account than the one I originally used to sign in?

    • You can sign out of a game or the Xbox app at any time and sign back in with a different gamertag.
    • Each time you sign in with a different Xbox account, the new account will be stored in the account picker, so that on future sign-ins, you'll only have to select the account from the account picker to quickly sign back in.
    • Your sign-in will carry across all Xbox-enabled apps, so if you sign in to a game or the Xbox app with a new account, that account will subsequently be signed in to all other Xbox apps until you sign out and sign back in with a different account.

    To sign out, go to the Settings screen in the Xbox app. At the top of the General tab, select
    Sign out.

    There is not a way to remove the account off the Xbox app unless you reinstall th Xbox app.

    Here are steps below on how to uninstall and reinstall Xbox app:

    1. Click Start, and then type Windows PowerShell on the search box.

    2. Right-click, and then select Run as administrator.

    3. Type the following command to uninstall Xbox app: Get-AppxPackage
    *xboxapp*| Remove-AppxPackage

    4. Hit Enter.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Microsoftt Sudoku logs in to incorrect microsoft account. How can I change it?

    Hello HappyWunjo,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning how you can sign in to Microsoft Sudoku with a different Microsoft account. Are you able to sign in to a different account in the game if you log out of the
    Microsoft Store App and sign in with the correct account? Also, we have
    a support article
    explaining how to sign in to the Xbox Console Companion App with a different account. After signing in to the Xbox Console Companion App with a different account, go ahead and try launching Microsoft Sudoku. Be sure to let us know the
    results!

    How do I switch profiles on the app?

    Hi Dynastic, You can switch accounts in the Xbox app by going to the Settings page then look under Account and click on “Sign out”. Now click on Sign in and it will bring up the Xbox authentication window. From there, click on “Sign in with a different Microsoft
    account” and choose a different account instead.

    Thanks,

    Best

    Losing xbox live connection

    Hello, I see that you are repeatedly getting signed out off your xbox account, this could possibly be a result of someone else logging in on the same account but on a different xbox. An account cannot be signed in on two different xboxs at the same time
    so this could possibly be the reason

    I am trying to swap an older Gamertag to my current email which already has a Gamertag linked.

    That's correct, Sean. And yes, it's possible that you use a different account when playing on Xbox on your PC. Simply sign out the account that's currently signed in on the Xbox app and sign in your preferred account.
