    Live Account over 360 and Xbox One

    With the xbox one your account will be in the cloud so you just log onto your account on there xbox one and you can then use all your games as well

    Live Account over 360 and Xbox One

    Doesn't this work exactly the same way as PSN. It isn't your Xbox that has an account it is YOU the gamer have an XBL account.

    YOU log into YOUR ACCOUNT on your XB360 and it works.

    YOU log into YOUR ACCOUNT on another XB360 and it works

    YOU log into YOUR ACCOUNT on XB1 and it works.

    Gameshare

    Sorry i phrased it weird. Or im understanding it weird. So account a, b and c are accounts that have been signed in on My xbox. So xbox 1 is mine. Main account on xbox 1 is Account A.

    account c is on its own xbox. So xbox 2. On xbox 2, account a and account C are accounts that have been signed in on. So these accounts A and C are gamesharing. Main account on xbox 2 is Accounr C

    Account B on xbox 1 has not set xbox 1 as its home xbox. So if im following it right, if account B purchases a game on xbox 1, account C from xbox 2 wont receive access?

    xbox account and wp8 account

    Hi Ty,

    If you still have access to an Xbox you could associate your old gamer tag with the new Microsoft account, if you wish, by following this guide. It will be a bit tricky but does work.

    Switch a Gamertag to another Microsoft Account

    As you already have a gamertag linked to both IDs you will need to perform a few extra steps as explained in the article.

    Its not exactly what you want by having two different accounts, but I believe it will make it simpler to have the one account for all.

    I look forward to reading you thoughts on this solution.

    Xbox account to other account

    I went to do this, but my son already has a Microsoft account using his email address. How do I do this?

    Xbox account to other account

    if you sign into your Microsoft account online you can sign in and set up a secondary alias (sons email) then make that email the primary email address. you will be able to keep your email address.

    Xbox account to other account

    Hello Guardiola1980,

    Thank you for posting on Xbox Forums. In regards to this issue/question of wanting to transfer the Xbox account from one email address to another, does your email that is currently connected to the Xbox account have the domain of either @hotmail or @outlook?
    If yes to either one, then it won't be possible to remove the email address associated with the Xbox profile as that would delete the email address permanently.

    If it ends with any other domain name such as @gmail, @yahoo, etc., then you should be able to add a new email to the associated account and then remove your email address thus disassociating your email address from the Xbox Account. For more information
    on how to do this please view this support article for Changing your Email Address.

    You don't necessarily have to remove your email from the account you can just make your son's email the primary for the account and have your email address as a secondary email just in case.

    If you have any other questions please feel free to reply back letting us know. Thank you again for posting on Xbox Forums.
