I can't find an option to prevent it from automatically signing into Xbox Live. Is there any way I can log into my profile and not be on Xbox Live without unplugging the internet?

I can't really say for sure, but off the top of my head, I think you either go to "My Xbox" and from there go all the way to the right to System Settings and then Xbox Live, OR you press the middle button and find the option somewhere there. Maybe both ways work.

The only option I can find is whether or not to automatically sign into my gamertag or not. When I'm not plugged into the internet, it lets me still sign on my gamertag while not being on Xbox Live, but when I am plugged into the internet, I can't sign into my gamertag without it also automatically signing into Xbox Live.

. And then I can't sign out of live without signing out of my profile/gamertag as well.

Oh well that's what I was thinking of. I don't think there's an option for what you're looking for.

Sign into Xbox Live

Press 'Guide' button

Move to settings then select profile --.and at the bottom is 'Sign-in Preferences'

and there is the option to auto sign in or not.

All I can say is just unplug your internet. They have that to automatic log on for convenience for people who are sane.

There is no way that I know of to not be in your profile but not on Xbox Live. But you can change your preferences to show that you are offline even though you are online. You can do this on your console or on the xboxlive website.
