Insiders beta update failed to the Beta version 241014

Your son is playing on the official release channel for Minecraft. His 1.12 version is currently the latest official version, whereas his friends have joined the Insider Program and are playing a beta test version of Minecraft.

His friends can either un-enroll from the Beta Insider Program, or you son can try to join the Insider Program and update his Minecraft to a beta version.

Be aware however, that beta version still contain untested parts, and the game can crash, malfunction and in turn destroy worlds if an error occurs.

If your son is still willing to test the Beta, he can download the free Insider app from the store, and join the Minecraft Beta.

Then he'll have to download/update his Minecraft to the newer beta version.

Hi there! Are you or your friend in the Insider Program and using the Beta for Minecraft? The Beta version is on a different version of the game to help test for future updates, and makes it impossible to connect to players who are not using the Beta version.

According to https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Bedrock_Edition_beta_1.13.0.1 it seems you opted in to recieve BETA updates to Minecraft.

As Beta versions are test versions and might contain unstable code, public servers do not update to Beta versions.

So if you wish to use public servers, make sure you only use non-Beta versions of Minecraft. If necessary, un-enroll from the Minecraft Insider Beta program, and wait until the next official update, or uninstall and re-download the latest public non-beta
version of Minecraft.

Might be the xbox insider program there can be bugs if your using beta version of xbox update

Hola!

Me paso y fue que yo tenia la version del "insider hub" que es beta y mi amiga no. Yo tuve que dejar el beta para poder jugar con ella.

O entras al beta del "insider hub" o ellos dejan el beta. Eso si, los mundos creados en beta no se podran jugar en la version actual.

Espero que esto te haya ayudado!

[Translation - Hello!

I step and was that I had the version of the "insider hub " which is beta and my friend not. I had to leave the beta so I could play with it.

Or you enter the beta of the "insider hub " or they leave the beta. That if, the worlds created in beta will not be able to play in the current version.

I hope this has helped you!]
