Xbox live lag

This could happen for many reasons. It could be other people using up all you internet. If possible connect your xbox directly to your router or modem and see if that fixes the problem. If not use speedtest.net and see if the speed you are getting is what you are paying for.

Does any1 know how to change the age on xbox live. The reason is my son wants to play FIFA 11 online and when I set his account up I put his correct age in and its says now that he is to young. I have...

Create a new profile on your XBOX Live. If you're really set on lying about your son's age online, that's the only way he'll be able to do it. Create a new email address, then create a new profile on XBOX Live with a fake age. He'll be able to play the game on the new profile.

I need to change my age on xbox live

Unfortunately it is impossible to change your age on Xbox Live. You set it at the beginning of your registration and agree to the Microsoft Terms that the information you are providing is incorrect.
Your best bet if you want to change/correct your age is to create a new Gamer Tag on Xbox Live.

If this solution doesn't resolve your problem, please post a response on this page and I will be happy to assist you further.

Password on famliy setting for xbox live preowed console

From the XBox website:


Managing Xbox LIVE Activity
Xbox LIVE Controls come into play only when you take Xbox 360 online, and they're linked to a child's profile and gamertag. When an Xbox LIVE account is created, the service asks for the member’s age to determine whether to apply Family Settings to that account.
Parents are also required to create or use an existing Windows Live ID. The Windows Live ID is associated with the child’s Xbox LIVE account and protects the settings from being changed later by the child. To change a child’s settings, first select the child’s account name and connect to Xbox LIVE. Once signed in, enter your Windows Live ID password to unlock the settings.
To see these controls, go to My Xbox, open System Settings, then selectFamily Settings, Xbox LIVE Controls.

Parental control is blocking me from downloading content.

HI,

If you did not create a Live account that is not over 18 years old, it is unfortunately impossible to COMPLETELY remove the parental controls on the Xbox, however, it is possible to almost completely turn them off. If you have access to the 'parent' account of the child's account on the Xbox 360 and you have your own Xbox Live Gamertag, you can login using your Windows Live account on Xbox.com and change parental control settings.

If the "Child" account has reached the age of 18, then you need to sign into the "Parent" account and follow these steps to convert the account to an "Adult" account:


  • Go to My Xbox, and open your profile.
  • Select Manage Account.
  • Select Promote Child Account.
  • Follow the required steps.

If the "Child" account is NOT atleast 18 years old then this is how to modify the Parental Control settings (Note: You can NOT completely disable Parental Controls, games that have ratings above the neccesary age can NOT be downloaded on the "Child"account):



  • Sign in using the "Child" account's Live email address and password.
  • Click on the gamertag in the upper right hand corner of the site.
  • Click the Manage Profile button.
  • Under the Gamer Profile heading, choose "Family Settings".
  • It will now ask to sign in as the "Parent" account.
  • After signing in, you can change the Parental Control limitations.
  • When done, click the save button at the bottom of the page.
Thanks.

My age will not change on xbox live

You'll have to make a new account, because once you set your age on a live account, you won't be able to change it.

My age is wrong on x box 360

Go into the system settings and flick through the family settings. If you signed up with an underaged account, they should have made you attach a parental account. When it asks, just fill in the info for the parent email and change the settings to allow you to do whatever you want. I'm currently trying to figure out how to change the age. You may have to recover your profile but I'm pretty sure you can just change the email address your account is linked with.


********
If you wanna change the email address linked to your xbox live account, go into the marketplace blade, select account management and there should be something there like windows live ID. Just go in there and put in the details and then the new details. You'll figure it out from here...
