Not sure if it is still possible but you might have different versions. When I downloaded the Minecraft better together beta on my one. I could not join my windows 10 version until I downloaded the beta for win 10 version also. You or your friend might have
the win 10 version while the other has the new better together version of Minecraft.

So... it appears you're having problems connecting to your friends worlds in Minecraft for Windows 10.

I would have them check their in-game settings in Minecraft under the main menu there, and make sure that Online play is enabled. Sometimes this is switched to being disabled and therefore they cannot join any online games and friends cannot join their game
either. Both you and your friends should check in Minecraft settings and make sure that Online play is enabled and friends are allowed to join. Then you can select which permissions you would like to enable for your friends when they join your world after
that.

Hello, and thank you for responding, I probably forget to mention that I play only on Windows 10 and I do not have Xbox. I do appear online on my profil on Windows 10, but none of my friends can see me online, they cannot join me ingame or
chat for exemple.

I too am having a problem joining friends using XBOX Live. It used to work, recently it has failed. In MineCraft it shows my friend available, but when I attempt to join, it goes into a continuous loop "syncing pack with server". Client is iPad Air 2 with
latest iOS, Server is Windows 10 notebook with latest Windows Updates. Both are using MineCraft v1.1.5

Submitted bug report to Mojang, 25 Jul 17, no resolution as of this time.
