Head to www.msn.com
Click on "Hotmail"
Log in
Now on the left hand corner the "Windows Live" symbol will be there, click on it, then click on "Account"
Switch your birthday to something over 18 (like 1984).
Head back onto live, now TRY to download an M rated video or something, IF THIS DOESNT WORK TRY THIS.
With your new birthday head to "Account Management" on your 360.
Select "Promote Child Account"
Then follow the steps.
And were good to go.

This would be great if it worked, but I dont think it does. My 360 still says I'm a child account.

The solution is to never put your real age on anything like this if you're under 18.RHCP87

Agreed, I learned that over two years ago when I created this account.

the promote account isnt on the menu. i did everything else.

what would happen if i changed windowslive id associated with my xboxlive would that work

That's not a solution, that's an after thought to a lot of people, a precaution. Too late for 1000s of people now.

The proper solution is don't be under the age of 18. It even says you're supposed to be 18 in the TOS for Live. Thats why there shouldn't be little kids wasting space online but there is.Ket87

Just because somebody is under the age of 18 does not make them a little kid. Some of these teens are pretty mature for their age so you can shutup. By the way, your sig really is not funny. /Facepalm
