I bought minecraft for my child but it is not working on his account, it only shows on mine

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

If I may ask, are you on Xbox or PC?

If you're on PC , you can share it with him by setting your account as store account, but please note that he'll not be able to play the Java version, only the Bedrock edition.

I got you this link: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-pro...

If you're on Xbox, you can share it with him by setting your account as Home Xbox.

1. Sign in to your account.

2. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

3. Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.

4. Check "Make this as My Home Xbox".

If you would like, you can also request a refund so you can buy the game under his account. To do so, sign in to https://xbox.com/refunds.

Hi!

So my son plays minecraft on the ipad and I have bought many packs and skins for him. Now that he is a little older I made him his own xbox account and I'd like for all the packs and skins to be transfered to his account. It is a child account that is
connected to mine but when I sign into the game with his account all the old packs and skins are not there and he has to remain signed into my account.

Is there any way to migrate these purchases to a child account connected to a main account so he can have some "account independence"

Many thanks,

W

When comparing his account and mine, under "security", I can see the "App passwords" section under mine, but not his. His Live account doesn't seem to allow creating app passwords.

Damn child accounts, only troubles.

Hi. I purchased Minecraft Windows 10 edition Master Collection for my son. He sent me the request to purchase from his Microsoft Account and I approved the purchase and made the payment. However his 1000 mine coins are not showing up. I saw online it's saying
this is because I made the purchase under my Microsoft Account. However it only gives him the option to download the game under his Microsoft Account and asked under mine for me to purchase the game. How can he get his 1000 mine coins that we paid for?

I resolved the issue. It appears that Xbox One let's you do a 'quick switch' between accounts. I wasn't signing my childs account out, just switching over to mine, where everything was still showing restricted.

Once I signed out of his account, and signed mine in... I had full access.
