    trouble with old xbox 360 profile


    Hello,

    i had a question about my old xbox live account that i have on the xbox360, more in particular the email it uses to sign in. I still have the login info and still can play all my games that i purchased over the years. Anyhow I was wanting to change the email for the old account but the email address for it was deactivated by the email provider as i only used it for the xbox system and facebook and never really had to sign-in and at the time i didnt think it was a problem but it was and now the email is unrecoverable and i have no way to verify when i try to change the email through the account. Is there any way i could be helped here? I really dont want my account and all that money tied into it to be linked to a dead email.

    :)

    trouble with old xbox 360 profile

    Thank you for your swift response!

    However, to link my old email address to my hotmail account is not possible as i can only link other hotmail email addresses to my hotmail account.

    I tried to recover my old email address and was informed by the email address provider that it was not only deactivated but also terminated and not recoverable as i havent used it in 10+ years.

    Is there any other way to help change my old xbox live email address? Perhaps microsoft could change it manually? Given that i can verify that it is my account via Identification card, phone number or facebook as i use the same email address there as i do on my xboxlive account.

    Greetings kucfer420,

    Sorry to hear about your account issues, let's see what we can do to help you out.

    So, a couple possibilities.

    1) Change the email on the account

    • If you can log into your account, I would recommend going and changing the email address at the account page here
    • Once your logged in, go to your info in the top left-hand side
    • Under the account info area in the middle, you can see your email addresses tied to the account
    • Click edit account info
    • Add a new email using the Add email button at the bottom
    • Verify the email through the link they send you
    • Once verified, make the new email your primary
    • Then remove your old email. This should clean the account up and link it to your new email
    I would recommend tying multiple emails to your account or at least a phone number so you can use them as logins if needed.

    2) Recover your old email

    Depending on who the provider is, there might be some better recovery options their support can give you. This would go above and beyond their recovery tools they list online. There also has been a level of success for some people when they attempted to recreate the email through the provider.

    Hope this helps and happy gaming

    Playing more 360

    There are still loads of amazing games on the Xbox 360.

    Only trouble is the old school graphics really stand out when you've just been playing on the One.

    Skate 3 backwards compatability

    Hi Dan,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with this issue. Glad you were able to find Skate 3 and get it installed. Since you're having trouble with the licensing for the digital version and are using Xbox One, then you may need to re-download your profile on the
    360 emulator. To get to the 360 Guide on your Xbox One, simply launch any 360 game on your console and when you see the 360 loading screen, push the menu & view buttons (2 small buttons on controller's center) simultaneously for a few seconds. This should
    bring up the 360 Guide on your screen.

    Next you'll need to remove your profile via the emulator (much like on the old 360), then re-add or re-download it to the console via the emulator. This should refresh your profile for licensing to the 360 game. Here's a link for specific instructions on
    the removal/addition of the profile in case you need it: How to add or remove an Xbox profile on Xbox 360.

    Give this a try and please let us know the results.

    I hope that this helps out!
