  3. Changing privacy settings on xbox one

    Recently I bought a xbox one and I am having problems accessing xbox live. I ckecked my connection that is fine, I have xbox live. When I go to play advanced warefare It says this account can't play xbox live, then when I go to change my privacy settings
    it says Your privacy settings are in effect, but can't be changed until we connect to the service. I do have a parent account linked with my account if that helps. My question is how do I change my privacy settings? Thanks in advance!

    Xbox account privacy problems

    Hello Julian,

    Sorry to hear about the issue with privacy settings. You will need to
    add a family.

    • step 1 will need to create an adult account --account with birthdate over the age of 18.
    • once created sign into
      Account website
      then go to family.
    • Then will need to invite the child account (your account) from the parent account to the family.
    • Once you accept it will be by email, then the parent may have to verify they are an adult. After they verify the can modify your settings as the child.
    When you create an account, even if you change the birthdate on Microsoft website, you are unable to change it on Xbox.com it is locked there. If by chance your account should be an adult like it past your 18th birthday there are ways to prove it.

    Parental controls

    You just have to go to Settings/Account/Privacy and Online Safety/Xbox Live Privacy and select "For Adults", restart the game after it, that should fix the problem.
