Can you change your age on your live account?

Ok, so I was an idiot when I got live about 2 months ago and put my real age which is 16. I can't download any of the mature content! Ex. Resident Evil 5, Fable II videos, or even the Halo 3 map packs!

Is there anyway to change this without waiting half a year without my birthday?! It is very annoying.


(I'm new to the forums, so I don't know how much people are by the book, so I thought I'd just let yall know my mom doesn't care about me playing M rated stuff.)
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Wow gutted! You'd have to change your email address i think.. and make it 18+ .. I think?
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

The live account is registered under my mom's email address I think though, and the credit card for buying MP and the works is hers..You think they could notice that? lol
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Weeeird then it should work? Idunno look in your profile settings or something?

not exactly sure
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

I have tried everything. The family settings are set to whatever. I would think that if that is set I should be able to download anything as well. I'm running out of stuff...Great ole' Microsoft.

Or is it my fault for telling the truth? Damn wanting a Halo :'( I should have opted for the horns and had more fun...lol
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Haha! Yeah i went and cheated a little bit by 1 year.. so i could download other stuff.. and not have to do that family thing
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Hmm ok..I just went to Windows Live ID and apparently it is under my email. So if I make a new email and use that, that should work? Maybe..
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Yeah I think so? Make it atleast 21 years+ I think
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Hmm ok. I changed it, but I haven't set the age on it. Do you know how I would do that from the 360?
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

hmmmm. i dont know. that problem never happened to me, since i am 18 (and was when i got live.) i will take a look and tell you if i find anything.
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Alright thanks man. I'm trying to figure out how to set the age. I changed the email like I said. I saw "Age not set" on it. but there was no way for me to officially set it.
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

What a bunch of crap, you should be able to download anything you want to if the family settings are set to whatever...blast Microsoft :realmad:

Wish I could help bro, hopefully somebody knows the answer.
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Agreed man. What's the point of Family Settings if they have no purpose...If I have the game in my xbox I should be able to download stuff for it. :unsure:

I just hope the Fable II co-op is an update thing instead of a download :O
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

I was thinking this myself actually when i set my cousins up as i had to set my account as his parents account (as his parents dont have email addresses). I can understand why the restrictions are there but thought it was possible to download any content so long as the parent account password is used.
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

That's what I figured too. That's not really the case though with it. I like I said I changed the email address but I'm not sure how to set the age for it.
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Damn ESRB, isnt it supposed to be based on your beliefs, not theirs? God, i am going to punch one of em in the face just like... out of no where! Ka-BAM! Sorry for your case man... sucks...
 
Re: Can you change your age on your live account?

Right I know this may sound thick and so easy to think of but.......
Get your mum to go on family settings and turn every one to off
that`s what I did because I knew my mums pass
But still cant change my age for skate 2 and MSN:ninja:
