How do I sign up for an xbox live account? Account suspended?

Sorry about the divorce. I do not have any living parents so you may be the lucky one. It sounds like the system may be recognising that you are trying to connect using your parents account. Xbox is a subscriber account I believe. I have PS3 which is a free account. But I understand that a subscriber account has a few more security factors as it involves money. So if they suspect that a person is trying to use the account but is not the account holder then they may block access regaudless of circustances. If you have right of access to the use of the Xbox then you could consider staring your own account. Then you can authorise any changes your self with out the need for verification from the account holder as you are then the account holder. I could use my account on any PS3 but any one can not use my account. It is just the account parts which are locked to the account holder. So if he/she does not allow then access is not allowed. If you had your own account you could open it and use it (I believe) on any Xbox as it is the account which is locked and not the Xbox. So trying to access the On-line part requires signing in as it is only accessible to the account holder or those he allows. My PS3 has an option to add more users to my account. It may be so with the Xbox. If your parent just does not want you using his account then that account is not available to you. Sorry but things like that sometimes happens to some people. I do not know your age and your parent may be concerned about allowing access whilst he is not there. I am older than eighteen so I do not need my parents permission to have my own account. It may be that you may have your own account at sixteen or less. But I beieve the Xbox requires a yearly payment. I do not know if I have been of help. But I hope I have.

you could do this from your console or on xbox.com I think they've changed the layout since I've owned a 360 but heres micorosofts link: http://support.xbox.com/en-us/pages/xbox-live/how-to/xbox-live-account-management/change-billing-info.aspx
~best of luck!

That is correct, what you download on one Xbox live account is only available on that live account. You cannot swap downloaded content between accounts. That is the whole point of them to stop people game sharing across different accounts.

Sorry but that's just how Microsoft want it.

buy them from argos or set up a new profile

hi,have you call xbox customer support it may possibly be your account is suspended,but if not try to recover your gamertag it works 100%.

How to recover your gamertag:
1 sign out first
2. press the guide button (silver button on your controller),select the option recover gamertag
3.it will ask to enter your gamertag/email and password.

this also happens when you recover you gamer tag too many times, its a safety thing, go to live.com sign in an you will have a message follow the steps to re activate your account, sill i know but it worked for me...

what was the account suspended for? I think it makes a difference. If it was bc your cc was expired and you want to use a code, you can try deleting all the cards in your profile before you enter the code that might work.

i cant find out to put the xbox up to this

its suspended prolly because people put negative or bad ratings on ur account wich can suspend u
