    Switching Microsoft Accounts


    Hello, I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 8 so I decided to make my own Microsoft Account. So my Xbox Live gamertag is associated with my dads account and I want to transfer it to mine. Please don't send me a link to the support page, already
    tried it and couldn't figure out how to do it on Xbox One (I no longer have a 360). Any way to transfer it without a 360?

    :)

    What exactly are you trying to transfer? The windows live ID? That is the only thing that can be moved around on accounts. Any DLC or game saves can't be transferred.

    It's not currently possible to change your Microsoft account through the Xbox One.You'll need to find a friend or family member with a 360 to help you.I'm not sure when/if they'll add the ability to do it on Xbox One.

    If this is the fake account, you're not going to be able to switch it.

    You signed in with it on the MS sites and created a new Gamertag. As long as there is a tag, you won't be able to switch. Try creating a new MS account (don't sign in online) and then you should be able to change it on the console.

    Hi there Pervious,

    It sounds like you're trying to keep the Gamertag you've been playing on but put it under your own Microsoft Account rather than your father's.

    If that's the case, we do have a guide to
    Switch a Gamertag to another Microsoft Account
    .

    This process will take 30 days to complete as you can only move a gamertag to a different Microsoft account once every 30 days.

    I created one throw account about a month ago. No, there is no GamerTag associated with the throw account. It's sitting there clean.
