I joined the minecraft beta to participate in it, but the game won’t enter the beta

Hi !

If you have a Beta version of Minecraft, I think you can only join people with the same beta version. Maybe your others friends can't be joined because they don't participate to the beta program.

Regards

How do I check if I'm in the beta

According to what's mentioned in the link below (section: Essential information before participating in a Minecraft Beta), you can't switch back and forth between the two programs. You can find more information about this in the following link :
