    My child has recently accidentally connected her Minecraft account, verified with my Microsoft email, to an Xbox live gamer tag. Now when she tries to log in to Minecraft, it logs in with the xbox live account instead of her original Nintendo Switch account. This means she doesn't have any of her worlds or skins. We cannot find the original gamer tag (which is different to the xbox live gamertag) and so cannot log in and have access to her worlds/skins which she has spent a lot of money on.

    Steps to replicate

    1. Sign out of Minecraft on Nintendo Switch

    2. Click log in with Microsoft account

    3. Go to aka/remoteconnect

    4. Add code

    5. go back to Switch

    Actual

    Signs in with xbox live account gamer tag which doesn't have any of her worlds, not Nintendo Switch/Minecraft account.

    Expected

    We want to be able to sign into original Nintendo Swich/Minecraft gamer tag and account and have access to all her worlds/skins.

    :)

    I am eligible to get bedrock edition for free because I bought Java edition in January 2022. How do I set up bedrock edition on my Nintendo switch for free?

    Here's a step-by-step guide that may help you locate it:

    Go to the official Minecraft website and click on the "Log in" button in the top right-hand corner of the page.

    Enter your Mojang account login details and click on the "Log in" button.

    Once you have logged in, you should see a navigation menu at the top of the page. Click on the "Games" tab.

    In the dropdown menu that appears, click on "Minecraft."

    Scroll down the Minecraft page until you see the "Minecraft for Nintendo Switch" section.

    Next to the "Minecraft for Nintendo Switch" section, there should be a button labeled "Redeem." Click on this button.

    You will then be prompted to log in to your Nintendo account. Follow the instructions to log in to your Nintendo account.

    After you have logged in to your Nintendo account, you will be redirected back to the Mojang website. You should see a message confirming that your free copy of Minecraft Bedrock Edition has been added to your Nintendo account.

    On your Nintendo Switch, go to the Nintendo eShop and search for "Minecraft." Select "Minecraft" from the search results and click on "Download" to download and install Minecraft Bedrock Edition on your Nintendo Switch.

    Minecraft store purchases gone after Microsoft Account login on Nintendo Switch

    Hello JuleN95 sorry the content is unable to be found at this time you can try this to see if it all show up.

    I own Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition and I’ve bought previous DLC. How do I get it to sync to Minecraft?

    1. Log into Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition on your Switch account. This will sync the latest purchases.
    2. Log into the Minecraft on your Switch and you’ll be automatically granted the entitlements for that DLC.
    Note For every purchase you make on the previous version, you must first log into
    Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition, exit, and then launch the new Bedrock version for purchases to sync. DLC purchased within
    Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition will only remain on your Nintendo Switch device and will not carried over into other devices.

    If still need further help you can visit this Minecraft for Nintendo Switch FAQ to get further information.

    Thanks

    Trying to sign on to my Microsoft account on minecraft for switch.

    This is not the first time I've signed into my Microsoft account for minecraft or Nintendo switch. I have tried multiple wifi connections, and the only error code it gives me is error code 500 and says xbox live cannot complete this request. I am able to log into my Microsoft account on the regular Microsoft website, just doesn't work for the website to connect it to my minecraft for nintendo switch
