Has anyone ever managed to get these three up and working together?
My son and I have been trying for about 3 or 4 hours in total now. It's insanely difficult with blockers and tricks at every step of the way. The Microsoft pages have plenty of looping pages to catch you out.
My recommendation is, if you have an under 18 year old child who wants a Windows phone, tell them they can't have one. It'll be a lot easier in the long run.
I think we are almnost there but because he had the audacity to create a profile on the xbox himself, we now have to wait twenty days before we can change anything so he can buy apps on his phone. How massively stupid is that?
MsD has done this with her Lumia 820 and had no problem whatsoever. She says are you using your hotmail account?
yes. the problem is if you create the Xbox account first I think.
Had exactly the same problem. When you first set up the phone, were you in an area of poor signal? If so, factory reset it and use a WiFi connection.
Deeply annoying, but I know exactly what you mean by the looping pages.
Can't comment on the phone, but I remember when I created my XBL account (like five years ago or something), it was a PITA to do it on the console but took seconds on a PC.
I appreciate that's no help whatsoever. Sorry.
The extra compliacation is that my son created his account before he was 18. This means to activate absolutely anything, he has to be associated with my MS account and then I have to authorise stuff. Fine in theory but in practise it just doesn't work very well.
Now he is 18, MS haven't now allowed him to be in control of his own stuff, it makes no difference to them. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
I want to talk to an MS advisor (90 minutes wait time last time I checked).
I want to complain ~(that's not possible, who could prossibly want to complain about MS?)
I want to spend some money... Nope, not possible.
Idiots.
