Each member of your family can have his or her own profile on the Xbox 360. This way, players can keep their own scores, game saves, and Xbox Live information separate.
Players can't share an Xbox Live Gold account at the same time. If you want to play on Xbox Live at the same time, you probably need more Gold accounts (unless you're playing a game that allows multiple players on the same home console).
Adding profiles
To create a new profile, press the Guide button in the middle of the controller to bring up a navigation blade that contains:
- Your gamer score
- Your message center
- A music interface that lets you play background music
You can get to this system navigation blade at any time — whether you're playing a game, watching a DVD, or listening to music — by pressing the Xbox 360 Guide button in the middle of the controller.
To create a new Xbox 360 profile, follow these steps:
1. Press X.
You're prompted to confirm your decision to sign out at the Sign Out blade.
 | 2. At the confirmation screen, you can select either: • Yes, Sign Out(this completes the signout process) • No, Don't Sign Out(this returns you to the Xbox 360 Dashboard) After confirming that you want to sign out, return to the Guide navigation page (Figure 1), where you can: • Sign in again with any of the profiles that will automatically be found on the hard drive • Create New Profile • Recover Gamertag from Xbox Live >
If you've created a profile with an associated Xbox Live account and you lose that profile, you might need to recover it.
