PRIVATE FORUMS -- Xbox LIVE Update Preview Program

Connect with others in the program today: (Login to your dashboard for link)

Who Can Access:

As a registered member of the Public Preview Program, these forums are now available for you to discuss the program with others that are also registered. These are restricted forums so people outside of the preview program will not be able to access the content. The GamerTag that you used to register into the program is the only authorized participant.

Frequently Asked Question:

Q. Why can't I access the Private Forum link above?

A. The Private Forums require us to use the GamerTag you provided during program registration. Make sure you are using that GamerTag.

If you are still unable to access it, likely there was a typo when you submitted it or you'd never previously accessed the regular xbox.com forums. Below are some steps to get you fixed up:

1. Log into xbox.com and post in the standard forums so that you create a presence within the forums

2. Resubmit your GamerTag via the survey section on Connect

Once submitted it takes ~5 business days for us to update the permissions for you to access the Private Forums

its working for me , maybe they are slowly rolling it out , you could always check to see if you entered your gamertag right on the survey.

It's right, I have not been able to access the forums for as long as I can remember. Every time I try to go there from the main site it just sits their and says it loads and never shows up. Only site I have problems with.

Check you dashboards ;)

Update 10/17/2011

"...but sharing specific information about the program is a violation of the program agreement"

Not sure if that's a public FAQ or not, but don't you think that copying and pasting entire sections of the Connect website to a public forum falls under the category of "specific information about the program"? :-)

Not really sharing anything that is public knowledge, I have not shared any links or program specific details about the dashboard update so I will have to say no. ;)

I'd have to disagree. I'd say information from the private connect portal definitely falls into the category "specific information about the program" :)

Who cares though, chances are they won't even notice. Just don't be copying anything else and pasting it here or you'll face the wrath of the evil minions of Microsoft :)

The updates aren't public knowledge, even if you don't include the links. Microsoft has kicked people out of the updates before (removed their connection abilities), so I wouldn't recommend it.

Does the new dashboard do anything new with the Network selection? I connect between two different wireless networks and it's a hassle having to retype the password in everytime I make a switch. Why can't there be a checkbox for it to remember it?

We cannot discuss anything during the preview program, plus we still have not been registered to get the update. Still waiting for them to get our console IDs so they can push the update. ;)

The program is no longer depending on a console ID, but on your gamertag instead. And yes, people are already registered for the update if they can access the private forums on Xbox.com (go to the connect site, you should be able to navigate from there) ;)

They've never stated that. See my posts on the previous pages. Console IDs weren't used in the sign-up process to make the process easier. That doesn't mean we don't have to input them to get the update later on.

Over the next few weeks? It's been over two weeks since this started! Seems to me that the only reason they're doing this is to have fewer consoles to update at once come the release day. It's a bit underwhelming :(

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      What pushed me away from edge was the massive enshitification, constantly adding more and more bloat. Coupled with the constant changes in UI, and especially in the settings. Want to change the default search from Bing to whatever, you would have use search to know the three places to go and change. Then 6 months down the road, the Edge settings area gets a major update/change and doing the same task, changing the default search is now moved to three new locations. This never stops. They do this in Azure and its so insanely irritating. I am a huge OneNote user and they have effed it up so many times in the last 5 years....same for Outlook. People walk away from Microsoft products out of exhaustion.

      Mac does nothing of the sort. You can change the default browser very easily it does not nag you and when you do this, it does not open something still in Safari....like Windows does with Edge.

      I do not remember anything happening to Apple and Google for bribing people not to make Apps for Windows Phone. Edge barley has a foot print to matter. If the other browser companies want more of the Pie, they need to do better. I use Brave on all my personal device. However in industry, Edge of default, as we can manage it easier with MS tools.

      On the one hand, it shouldn't be difficult. You buy a computer, you decide what OS you want, which browser etc. Simple enough. But that's the techie side of things. My sister, my mother, wouldn't bother with such a thought. And I'm pretty sure that if you presented a window asking them what to pick they would say, "I don't care! I just want to access my Email!"
