    Wrong email linked to child's xbox gaming account. How do I change that?


    I linked the wrong child's email to their xbox gaming account. But I can't figure out how to change it.

    When I go to their account profile on Microsoft, it is correct, but in the game profile, it has the wrong childs name and email associated with their gaming account.

    :)

    Wrong email linked to child's xbox gaming account. How do I change that?

    Hello dear Gamer, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is Vinicius.

    I am a gamer and independent advisor on the XBOX community platform.

    Hey Isaac, how are you today? Hope you're well.

    So, let me get this straight, when you sign in with this email, is not the one that has the right gamertag? Is that it?

    So, every gamertag has an email attached to it, it's impossible to transfer a gamertag between accounts.

    It's possible that the account your login in is not the correct one. :/

    Delete Gamertag

    Hello KellyGww!

    You have 02 ways to make this change,
    01º) You can change the current Gamertag linked to your personal email by another, thus releasing that gamertag to your child.
    Here's how to do it here:

    Or

    02º) You can change the email linked to the Gamertag that you want to "preserve", changing the current email to one that belongs to your child.

    Here's how to do it here:

    I sincerely hope it will be of help ....

    Fortnite with two Xbox consoles and one Xbox Gold Account

    hi

    is it possible to go to the epic games website and create an epic games account, login with that account on the site and then go into that account and then link that to one of the xbox accounts thats a child account? does the child account not have their
    own email address and password? if not then the only way i can think of is to change it so their accounts have their own email address and password so that it can be linked to an epic games account.

    Can I move an Xbox account (set up for my kids years ago) off of my main Microsoft account?

    Can I change the email on the overall Microsoft account (that the Xbox profile is linked to) to my child's email, and then setup a new Microsoft account with my original email so I can then just use my Office (Word, Powerpoint, Excel) subscription from that?

    My issue is I need to keep my Office subscription with my email address - - which is also the address of the Microsoft account overall. And my email / Microsoft account is linked to the Xbox profile used by my child.

    EA - Star Wars Battlefront Online Features Age Restriction?

    How do you log into your Child's EA account? When I created the EA account on the Xbox, on the Home Screen of SWB, I was asked to put in my own email address (which is logical) for verification/parental consent purposes, since EA already knew the account
    would be for a minor (I guess based of the Xbox Live/gamertag info). I then created a username and password for the account and submitted. Once I received the email from EA/Origin, I verified that I was the parent/guardian and that was that. Not once during
    did the process did it ask for my child's email address or age.

    When you go to ea.com to login, it asks for an email address and not a username. Since no email was assigned to my child's account, I cannot log into the account. If I use the username and password, I get an "Invalid email address" error message. EA did
    not send any information or provide a means to me to manage the child account.

    I would love to change the age on just the EA account, but, I do not think it is feasible. I read on another forum that I need to change the age on the Xbox Live account and then create a new EA account that is linked to the "now instantly >13 yr old child"
    Xbox Live account. Not worth it and I do not want to give my child that much control. We can play online on my account. My child is much better than this old man and I can level up faster.

    Thanks again for all the info.
