Minecraft invites not going through

soymilk22 · Nov 5, 2021

After the new Minecraft 1.17 update, my friend and I have had issues inviting eachother to our worlds. The invites going through Xbox live work sometimes, but not all the time. We have tried everything relating to privacy and turned on all our privacy settings. When she sends an invite to me, I do not recieve it (she is on an Xbox, I am on a Windows PC). On her end, her realms arent working because it says there is an issue with the privacy settings even though we both have all our settings turned on. But sometimes we get it to work by going into settings, and changing all the priacy settings off and back on again. I don't really know what's happening.

Tell her to try this:

Hello! I think this is only happening with my friend, but we dont play with anyone else besides eachother. It seems like her realms arent working because of her privacy settings (we dont play on a realm, we just connect online). When it says the realms arent working, we cant connect and vise versa. And no, I am not apart of a Microsoft family group.

Hi there Soy welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. Is this happening only with this friend? Also, are any of you part of a Microsoft Family Group?

Thank you this worked, but we already had all the settings on and we just turned them off and back on and then multiplayer worked. Thank you for your help!

I know in Minecraft, I have joined friends games just by going through their profile and selecting Invite > To Game. Have you tried sending a game invite that way, through their profile, or only through the games themselves?
