  1. Can't change the birth date


    Hello,I wanted to upgrade my Microsoft account for OneDrive, but I realized that my account birthdate was set up as a child. In Family mode, I don't have any family members, only me as a child. That's really weird I'm an adult. And I don't have a right to edit my own birthday. I tried to do everything I found in this community, but it didn't work. The device I'm using is Macbook.It's really annoying that I can't edit my birthdate now. Please help me with this problem.

    :)

  2. Change my date of birth on microsoft profile

    Hi Alex,

    To change the date of birth on your Microsoft Account, you can follow the steps below:

    • Sign in to
      Your info
      on the Microsoft account website.
    • Click Edit your personal info.
    • Select the correct date of birth, and then select Save.

    If the birth date on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions that regulate what children can do online. You can check this
    link for more information.

    Let us know how it goes.

    change date of birth on Microsoft account

    I am trying to help my dad who cannot access his email because his profile date of birth has him listed as a child. His date of birth cannot be changed because he is the only user and does not have a "parent" to change his data. His name and other information can be changed but his date of birth is the only thing he cannot change. He is now concerned that he will have to set up a whole new account and loose all his emails. I can't find any information that is helpful.
