Minecraft account not showing up on NmaeMC

William Brender · Oct 2, 2022

I tried logging in to my unmigrated non-premium legacy alt account from 2009 with the username 1 recently and it sent me a ton of error messages like this account has been locked or this account violates the EULA or this account has not registered sometimes even this account is unmigrated. It won’t show up on NameMC anymore either, I decided but I would try to make a new account with the same user name but they just told me that it was an invalid username because it was under three characters! Technically I only ever attempted to log into it once on my iPad, but then realized that you can’t play Minecraft Java edition on iPad. Also that was me trying to open the game with a different launcher because I can’t add that profile to the official Minecraft launcher as it only allows me to add Mojang and Microsoft accounts there. I know a while ago but a lot of non-premium accounts were purged, but it still showed up on NameMC. I’m not sure what it is and I am looking for all the help I can get. In the meantime however I can use my Microsoft account that I am used to play Minecraft bedrock addition ever since I first purchased the game on my iPad. The timeline for this is a little bit weird because technically my friend got the account and was the OG owner, but he gave it to me in 2019. I have read the entire EULA 50 times and I’m not sure if it violates it, because it’s kind of vague about this topic, and technically no one did make any profit off of this account. Although since you can no longer migrate accounts to my knowledge I’m not sure if I will ever be able to get access to 1 back. I’m fine if I don’t get access to my account back as maybe the last time I checked NameMC it just hadn’t updated yet, it’s not like any money as long as neither as it was free to get in 2009. Nonetheless it would be nice to have 1 back so I can flex on servers, and if I don’t I can always just use the way back machine to register the account once more, but I’m not sure if it will work. Also I must remind you that it’s only my alt account, I’m even playing on my main account right now on my PC (I’m typing on iPad).

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this William

That message about EULA terms... appears on Minecraft.net only?

Or when you try to do the migration process and you are selecting a Microsoft account to migrate the account?

If its the second, are you able to sign with that account here?

Or the same message appears?

Nope, it won’t even let me migrate it. Also I don’t even have an Xbox (unless you count my Xbox 360 which hasn’t worked in three years). Although I don’t really care too much about losing 1 now as I never really used it. I just like the feeling of having a one character username because no one can make them anymore. I think I will just be getting a new alt account. Also it may have been purged in one of the many Minecraft account purges, I just am not sure. Again getting that account back is very low on my priority list, I mean considering that my main account has a cape (The Pan Cape) and $50 worth of Minecoins.

Hi Jack! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft account.

Based on your description, the error suggests that the system can't find the Minecraft game license on your Microsoft account.

Your Minecraft account must have migrated to the original Microsoft account email address where it was first created.

In order to fix this, you will need to find the Microsoft account where your Minecraft was migrated and where your Minecraft game license was purchased.

Kindly sign in to all of your Microsoft email accounts on account.microsoft.com > payment and billing > order history > select the date of range when you purchased your Minecraft game.

From there, check if you have the Minecraft transactions. If you have found the transactions, use the same Microsoft account to log in to Microsoft Store and Minecraft Launcher.

If you're unable to find the Minecraft game transaction, check your other Microsoft email accounts' order history.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best Regards,
Darhyl

I don't know if you can download it somehow, but if you have Minecraft from the Windows store it should show up if you sign in with the same account. It wont however show up in the Minecraft Java version as that is very different.
