Xbox 360 and Xbox One Gamer Tag

Discus and support Xbox 360 and Xbox One Gamer Tag in XBoX on Consoles to solve the problem; If you have a 360 and a One, do you have to keep downloading your gamer tag between them each time you use the other console from the last one used?...

  1. Xbox 360 and Xbox One Gamer Tag


    If you have a 360 and a One, do you have to keep downloading your gamer tag between them each time you use the other console from the last one used?

    i.e you play the 360, then wish to play on the one.

    I know with the 360 if you downloaded your GT onto another 360 it would lock out the GT on the other console, or does that only apply to the same gen consoles?

    I only ask as I have a 360 and wish to purchase a One and have games on the 360 i wish to complete.

    :)

    Xbox One the Facts

    can someone just confirm/clear up for me - can i roll over my gamer tag from xbox 360 onto the xbone and can i carry over my unused gold membership from my xbox 360 onto the xbone?

    i assume that if i roll over my gold account onto the xbone then i can no longer go online on the 360?

    If you have your profile stored on your Xbox 360 console, you can keep it there.

    When you get an Xbox 1, you will need to download it but only once, and choose to keep that profile on your console once downloaded.

    You can also be signed in using your profile, to both your Xbox 1 console and Xbox 360 console simultaneously.

    Your profile is retrievable on Xbox Live. It isn't just restricted to your PC, Xbox 360 or Xbox 1 console.

  6. You mention PC there Smiles.

    I know you can't be logged in to the 360 and Games for Windows Live at the same time, is that different with GFWL and the One?

    Xbox 360 and Xbox One Gamer Tag

    My gamertag sits on my X1 while it's on a flash drive for 360 use; never have to recover it and wish my G.T. could be stored on flash for the X1.

    Peace, J.R.

  9. Nothing against the OP, but sometimes I wonder about some of the silly questions that people ask around here that shows how much they truly don't know regarding the consoles and Xbox Live (granted, I'm probably an expert in comparison). It feels like, to
    me anyways, that we're constantly having to tell numerous people to check and make sure they've got it plugged in when they ask why they can't get it to work... *sigh*

    You know something's wrong when numerous support threads are being sent here... Xbox 360 and Xbox One Gamer Tag :(

  10. That is why I asked the question. If I knew the answer I wouldn't have bothered asking. Your post is absolutely pointless and isn't helpful at all to what I asked.

    Thank you to everyone else who provided helpful answers.

  11. Mike, I didn't answer it because I didn't have to - everyone else already did. I apologize if I upset you; that wasn't my intent.

  12. It hasn't upset it me, it just bugs me when people post in a thread which doesn't contribute to the subject at hand.

    that is just my opinion and view and you expressed yours in other post which is fair enough.

    Merging Xbox Gamertags

    So in that case, would logging into xbox one with a 360 gamer tag allow a user to get all the backward compatible games, and then playing them with a xbox one gamer tag?

    I have spoken with a few people in chat that are asking that question..

    They had created a new gamer tag for xbox one, probably not realising that they could play both consoles with the same tag..

    I know that Microsoft probably won't venture down the merge path, but it might be a nice option for some people..

    Unable to purchase Xbox One content with account credit

    I am having the same problem for weeks - gamer tag is . I have been on with support for hours and they have basically washed their hands of it. I can't see or use my account balance on xbox one only and only with respect to this gamer tag.
    It works fine on 360 or on xbox one with another gamer tag. Any idea if our accounts will be fixed?

    xbox live email got deleted permanently and I cant get into that email to get important stuff for my account that I need

    Also you can only change emails linked to gamer tags from the xbox 360 dashboard. It's unavailable on PC and xbox one

    Is there anyway to limit playing time when child is playing using my account

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    He actually has a child account, but his 'gamer tag' is associated with my account. From what I have researched, you cannot move a gamer tag to a child account on an Xbox One. If that is not correct, any references to how to do it would be greatly appreciated.
    If it matters, and I know it does for Xbox 360, I have an Office 365 subscription on my MS account. On a 360, that prevents moving gamer tags.

    Why has my gamer tag not changed on xbox1

    Gamer score leaderboard also shows as my old gamer tag above my game points, are these places where my new gamer tag should be on Xbox 1? On my Xbox 360 my old gamer tag is nowhere to be found even if I look for it
