  1. Transferring and moving games to a new account. Help pls :)


    So I have one older account that is linked to my parents email and all of my fathers personal work related stuff so I created a new account with my own email and would like to transfer all my downloaded games, dlc, etc. to my new account. But I am afraid
    that if I were to ever get a new console and try a licenses transfer from my new account that none of my games will come with it as they were all purchased on the old account under my fathers email.

    :)

    Transferring and moving games to a new account. Help pls :)

    Ownership of games, and other purchases, cannot be transferred between accounts.

    If the old account keeps the console as its 'Home Xbox' you will continue to be able to play them, and can make new purchases on the new account, but you cannot transfer ownership of the games over to the new account.

    I know this isn't the answer you want, but I hope the clarification helps.

    Merging windows live id with xbox live?

    No.



    EDIT: You can swap the accounts around to attach the Xbox account to the e-mail address you want to be using. Steps here:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945419/pl. That's going to be more difficult if you've already created a gamertag on the new account, you'll have to move the gamertag that's on the new
    accoutn off of it, then move the old gamertag onto the new account.
