I had this problem when I bought my Xbox 360 used - the owner had a family password and didn't take it off before sending it to me!
The only fix I know of and what worked for me was to call Microsoft at 1-800-4MY-XBOX. They were able to reset it for me.

Forgot my password

I'm not very familier with this device personally. Have you tried to restore it to Factory Default Settings? That should let you start over with the supplied password. Also if you never changed the password, check your packaging. Often login info is included with network devices.

Xbox 360 slim

Start with the PS3 system turned off. Press and hold the power button until you hear three consecutive beeps then let go. Then repeat step one again. This time the last beep will be two consecutive beeps. This will put your PS3 system into safe mode. Click option 2. Restore default settings. Warning This will Reset all Settings.

Forgot password to unlock family settings on xbox 360?

I've managed to come across this from someone who called microsoft with the same problem (it seems quite common)
Go into settings Console settings Then device settings (The one with the blue screen)
Then go:
left trigger, right trigger, x, y, left bumper, right bumper,
left with left stick, up with left stick, right with left stick, x

If you have trouble use the pad instead of stick, but I could only get the stick to work..

I hope that helps

Regards
Mike
