Xbox Account Issue

YesImSniperOnly · Apr 8, 2015

Is there any way a dormant account can be purchased from xbox or deleted. Its unfair and not right that there are so many gamertags that me and others want but the account has been dormant for years or been banned for ever.

0x876c0002 error. Cannot pin games or apps

Thank you for the suggestions. I have done both with no success. It is not the end of the world but certainly an annoyance.Click to expand...

Remove your account from the Xbox and then add it back to the Xbox this will force the Xbox to rsync with your cloud live account. That should fix your issue. I believe that code is for a cloud account exception.

Account region issue

I just got a used XBOX 360.
I live in Cyprus, where XBOX Live is not supported, so i decided to choose UK as my country (did the same with PSN). I was planning on topping up my account with pre-paid cards.
I managed signing up for XBOX Live trial and i also purchased 4 codes for Gears of War games from ebay. I managed redeeming the first one (using a VPN on my PC) and initiated the download on my console, i left it downloading and went to sleep.

Today, i couldnt find the game in my games list. I went through the purchase history, the game was there, but the Play option just redirected me to the "My games" section. So, i decided to download it again, assuming download was interrupted somehow. And around 80% download stopped and i didnt see any error message (i might have missed it). But after some google search, i found out it has something to do with the region (probably my actual IP is d

So, anyone has any ideas how to resolve this mess?
thanks

At some point Microsoft will probably release them like they did with original Xbox accounts, but otherwise no. Keep in mind that even if the accounts aren't being used on a console they may be in use on another Microsoft service.

What if an account has been banned. How long will it be before its deleted so the gamertag can be used again. Its really stupid. No one can have a good gamertag without random X's and numbers because all the good ones or originals have been banned or used
by someone who doesnt play anymore or hasnt in years.

It would depend on when Microsoft decides to release gamertags. The only time they've ever done so was a few years ago when they released original Xbox gamertags that have never been converted over to the 360. So there's no timetable on when/if they will
release them again.

If you do not know you are in the preview program then you are not in the preview program. It is something you have to request to participate in.

Hi there!

You first need to have the Xbox Insider Hub app downloaded from the Microsoft Store before you can report a problem to the insider team.

If you're not too familiar with the app or program than more than likely your Xbox is not enrolled in the program since you need to have the Xbox Insider Hub app downloaded to join the program. If you want to see if you are enrolled or not follow these steps:

Launch the Xbox Insider Hub on your Xbox One or a Windows 10 PC.
On the main landing page, select Settings.
Select Manage devices and choose the one you want to remove from the program.
Select Done.

If you don't see any devices then your Xbox is not enrolled. If you see your Xbox listed and are enrolled, hold down the Xbox button on your controller to bring up the power menu. You should see "Turn off console", "Turn off controller", and "Report a problem".
Select report a problem and the Xbox Insider Hub will open to the page where you can describe the issue and submit a report.

Would you mind explaining what error you get when trying to add a custom picture and what method are you using to change the gamer pic?

Also what error do you get when trying to view clips on Xbox Live?
