i can't play multiplayer on minecraft Java edtion.

Hi there, and thank you for reaching out. My name is Aileen, and I am an independent advisor here to guide you. Just a quick reminder that this is a public community forum, so I don’t have access to accounts or tools to make direct changes.

If you're unable to play multiplayer on Minecraft Java Edition due to account restrictions, and your account is part of a Microsoft family group without an active organizer, that’s likely the issue. Child accounts can't change their own multiplayer or privacy settings; only a family organizer can do that through the Microsoft Family Portal.

If there’s no organizer listed, you won’t be able to update your settings until that’s resolved. Here’s a simple workaround:

Have a trusted adult create a new Microsoft account and sign in at https://account.microsoft.com/family.

They can then create a new family group and invite you account using your email.

Once you're added, they can go to your profile in the group and update the Xbox privacy settings to allow multiplayer gaming.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Looking forward to your response.

Thi still isn't fixed. I want to play Minecraft Java on Hypixel.net but I can't access multiplayer and on minecraft.net when I go to my profile it asks to buy Minecraft. Hey Microsoft please fix this.

I purchased an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription from the Microsoft Store. By subscription, a version of Minecraft for Windows 10 is available to me. After installing the game, it offers me to buy the full version and does not let me into the network game. What is the problem?

I just migrated my Mojang account to a Microsoft account and now I can't play multiplayer. I've look all over the internet but I can't find out how to make it so I can play multiplayer. And if your going to ask if I have any subscriptions with Xbox I don't have any.
