Cannot Connect to Minecraft Servers

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help with Minecraft.

Just a heads up, you cannot change your skin unless connected to the internet. This is because when you go to skin selection, it connects to the Minecraft store to show you your purchases and other skins you can buy.

It needs to be connected to Minecraft servers because skins are part of their servers for you to use them, unfortunately.

Minecraft has been updated from v1.14.0 to 1.14.1. I commanded to connect but could not even connect. It has a slight change, where it has been saying "connected to server," but this time it simply cannot connect.

Let me know if you could resolve the problem.

If you are experiencing a "connection refused" error when trying to connect to a Minecraft Java server, there are several potential causes and solutions.

1. Check server status: First, ensure that the server is online and running. If you are not the server owner, check with them to confirm that the server is running and that you have the correct IP address and port number.
   
2. Check firewall settings: If you are hosting the server, check your firewall settings to make sure that the port used by the server (default is 25565) is open and allowing incoming connections. If you are connecting from a different network, check that the network's firewall is not blocking the connection.
   
3. Check server settings: If the server is running but you still cannot connect, check the server settings to ensure that it is configured to accept connections from your IP address. If the server is set to only allow connections from certain IP addresses, make sure that your IP address is on the list.
   
4. Restart server and/or client: Try restarting both the server and your Minecraft client to see if that resolves the issue.
   
5. Use the correct Minecraft version: Make sure that you are using the correct version of Minecraft to connect to the server. If the server is running an older version of Minecraft, you may need to switch to that version to connect.
   
6. Use a different DNS server: Sometimes, the DNS server you are using can cause connection issues. Try using a different DNS server or resetting your DNS settings to see if that resolves the issue.
   

If none of these solutions work, there may be a more serious issue with the server or your connection. You can try contacting the server owner or your internet service provider for further assistance.

Yes, we have paid for the ransomware that you call Xbox Live Gold.

He plays as himself on the chromebook but plays as me on the Xbox. The ransomware is associated with me but shouldn't it extend to the whole family? If you tell me that I have to pay for ransomware for each of my kids I will not be happy...

I saw you mentioned others have visited the realm. Make sure your friend is online when you try and visit. The others may have been couch co-op. Also check your internet connection and make sure it is a stable connection.
