Last call to voluntarily migrate Java accounts | Minecraft

Hello,



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We understand that you're having trouble logging into your Minecraft Java account. It sounds like there may be some confusion with your email address and account information.



For us to be on the same page, may we know when did you migrated your Minecraft account to Microsoft account?

We would like to show you a timeline of the migration process so you will be aware of what could have happened to your Minecraft Java:

• 10/21/2020 - Minecraft Support first announce migration of Java to Microsoft account. (You will get to keep your Minecraft Java username.)
  
  • Java Edition is moving house | Minecraft
    
• 3/10/2022 - Last call to voluntary migrates Java accounts.
  
  • Last call to voluntarily migrate Java accounts | Minecraft
    
• 9/19/2023 - Last call to migration of Mojang account to Microsoft account with access of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition for Windows and free cape. This allows you to access to both Java and Bedrock editions and unmigrated Mojang accounts will not be able to sign in to Minecraft.net or the Minecraft Launcher to migrate.
  
  • Account migration last call | Minecraft
    
• 12/18/2023 - End of post-migration process - You no longer have access to your Java Edition account or Minecraft: Java Edition. Your capes and skins were tied to your previous Java Edition account and are not recoverable. Usernames will not be released until a later date.

Hello, how are you? Hope you're well. My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

First, welcome to the Xbox community. Unfortunately, if you've already migrated your account you won't be able to undo this decision, this is said by the Mojang who is the game's developer.

This information can be found at the link below.

Anyway, you can try contacting the Mojang and see if anything can be done, to contact them please use the link below.

*Thank you in advance for contacting the community, I hope this can help you. Let me know if you have more questions, please.

Hello,

Is the Microsoft Account you're using and the Java account connected/migrated? As in, when you log into the Minecraft Launcher with the Microsoft Account that owns Games Pass, it is the same account you purchased/migrated Java with? For example, my launcher (after migration - I purchased Java before the migration started, and recently migrated my account.) Has the Microsoft Account within it.





I then assume on the Minecraft screen, when you click the "Sign in" Button to the left, nothing happens?

Best Regards,

Everyone who bought the bedrock edition has the access to Java edition, you just need to migrate the Mojang account to a Microsoft account, which gets you access to the java edition.
