  1. trouble adding kids to my 'xbox family'


    Hi,

    I logged into my xbox privacy&online safety site using web browser. There I only see my own gamer tag, and not my kids' tag. When I click on 'Microsoft family' link, I get to the Microsoft page where I am also listed and there also my kid has her own Microsoft
    account listed and I can see that I am listed there as her father. How can I add her as my child also on the xbox account, in order to update the privacy settings, to allow her to play Minecraft Windows 10?

    Note 1: We have no xbox console. We use Windows 10 pc only.

    Note 2: My kid has her own microsoft account, as well as xbox account set up. Her xbox account just are not linked as child account on my xbox account page. This linking is what I would like to accomplish.

    I have seen the same posts from others that you may need to do a " 'pull up' for each of the kids, after which their accounts became visible under my xbox account".

    Thanks

    Mathias

    In case someone is interested, with the help of xbox support I got this thing correct. They did a 'pull up' for each of the kids, after which their accounts became visible under my xbox account.

  3. trouble adding kids to my 'xbox family'

    hi,

    In order to play Minecraft on Android phones with family members, each member needs to be defined as a 'friend' to join the same game. To have rights for a 'friend' property, each user needs proper xbox privacy account privacy settings.

    My kids want to play together. I logged into my xbox privacy&online safety site using web browser. There I only see my own gamer tag, and none of the kids' tags. When I click on 'Microsoft family' link, I get to the Microsoft page where I am also listed
    but there also each of the kids have their own Microsoft accounts listed and I can see that I am listed there as their father. How can I add the same kids as my children also on the xbox account, in order to update the privacy settings, to allow the kids to
    play Minecraft together?

    Note 1: we have no xbox console. Only android phones and a web browser running on a pc.

    Note 2: all the kids do have their microsoft accounts, as well as xbox accounts set up. Their xbox accounts just are not linked as child accounts on my xbox account page. This linking is what I would like to accomplish.

    Thanks for all advice,

    mike

    family membership adding my kids

    Thanks for your info OCT, looks like this is the case as Microsoft will begin migrating linked Family accounts to standard Live accounts (silver) when the renewal period finishes. Some folks are saying Family Pack is being "rebooted" but nothing is confirmed
    yet.
