transfer x360 gamertag and achievements to a new MS account

Mark Ush · Jan 1, 2017

I have a child with an xbox 360 who is currently on my MS account. I want to transfer their gamertag, achievements and credit to a new MS account in their name. How do I do this please?

Transferring media to new X360 while keeping it on old X360

Good Afternoon,

I am not sure what forum this question belongs to. I have several games and movies downloaded to my X360. I am planning on giving away my X360 away to a family member and buying a new one. My goal is to be able to transfer my games and movies on my new X360
while leaving a copy of the games (and movies if possible) on the old X360. Is that possible?

1. Can I keep my games (and movies) on two X360?

2. If yes, can I still keep my games (and movies) on the original X360 even though I removed my gamertag and deleted my profile from the console?

3. Can I just redownload the games and movies to the new X360 after I log in to Xbox Live with my gamertag or do I have to use license transfer?

Thanks.

Will My current live membership transfer to One?

Thanks for the information. Do you guys/girls know if my actual account will transfer? My current gamertag? Or will we have to start a new account? Will Achievements transfer?

So basically you are wanting to start over with a new gamertag/xbox profile on the same Microsoft Account.

Are you wanting to do this so that you can start over on achievements in games or what?

There is no way to transfer your current gamertag/xbox profile to an old MS account.

You can create a new account and set your console as your current profiles Home console that way you can play the games that the original account owns on the new account and start over that way.

To add on to ngocphi's post, the
MS Account/Gamertag Transfer FAQ states: "When you change to a new Microsoft account, the current funds in your original Microsoft account do not transfer to your new Microsoft account." Hope this helps! If you have any other questions or concerns
please let us know. Thank you,

Hi there Team Physics,

I'm going to try my best to answer your question. Let's start with..."I would like to use a new gamertag for myself with my existing microsoft account if possible."

-

Each gamertag can only be associated with one MS account.

If you want to use your current MS account with your new tag, the old tag will need be associated with a new MS account. -

Once the old tag is associated to a new MS account, you can use your MS account on your new tag.

-

Any achievements earned/purchased made under the original tag will remain tied/licensed to the original tag.

I hope this helps.
