    Troubleshoot Child can't purchase content


    I signed my sister under my family, and I'm trying to get her a 1 month trial on xbox, but when I go to get the month it says that this account is blocked from purchasing content. So then I go on my xbox and change the settings. So it allows her to purchase
    stuff, but even still it will not allow her to purchase anything. My account is used as the parent acc as it is under my parents name and email.

    :)

    I cannot buy games in the Xbox Store

    Hi Xgoan,

    There are two main reasons to why there may be difficulties purchasing Xbox 360 Backwards compatible content for your Xbox One.

    1) If you're trying to purchase the content with your Microsoft Account Credit it would only allow you to do so from an Xbox 360.

    2) If the account is a 'Child' account it would also block certain 360 content purchases to process out.

    Hey EmeraldianKing! Sorry to hear that you're running in to this issue! Generally, this error is displayed when the purchase is attempted with a child account. In order to purchase content from the Avatar store or other Xbox 360 items, you will need an adult
    account. For more information, check out the "Troubleshoot Xbox 360 Marketplace purchasing" page. Thanks!

    I can't set a password for confirmation of any purchase in xbox 360 marketplace

    You can't. As for your child you can set up a child account for him and set Parental Controls to disallow the purchase/download of any Marketplace content.

    I can not down load any thing rated "M"

    Child accounts can't purchase/download rated content above their age (T for under 13, M for under 18), or unrated (Indie) games from the marketplace. They just can't and there is no way to turn this off on a child account. You'll have to use an adult account
    to download the content or wait till you can promote your account to an adult account.
