Is there a way to change your existing live id to a different live id - if you prefer another and keep your same c9 profile and history?

TIA

When v4 launches, sign in with your forms password and then add the desired Live ID just like I showed in the video.

Sorry to beat this down, but want to make sure. I have existing LiveID staceyw@zzz that I use for c9 (not form id). I want to switch to LiveID william@zzz. So your saying I should be able to do that? Thanks much in advance.

Yesterday, I did just that and saw the "Profile" option for the first time.

Since then....nada.

Is it possibly because I login automatically when I go to the site through the feeds links?

In other words, how do I get the "Profile" option back?

Yes and no... if you have a userid and password on C9 now (in addition to your Live ID) then yes, you could switch. If you don't, then no we don't provide the ability to switch. Having seen this featured asked for and then eventually added to Xbox Live though, I can understand that it is useful to many people.

We will add it to our list, and I expect we will add it in the future.

This will be the sixth time we have destroyed it and we have become exceedingly efficient at it

The code I showed in the video isn't live yet so you can't actually try it Smiley
