    Minecraft issues on iPad


    Hi, we have multiple issues with our Minecraft setup on iPad.

    Here is our setup:

    My 10 year old son purchased Minecraft.

    My 8 year old son and myself install Minecraft via family sharing.

    I have setup XBox family with my children, with myself managing the parent account.

    I have setup the privacy settings.

    My kids can add friends.

    Issue 1: When my kids invite me to play their game, and I accept the invite, it just says "Connecting to multiplayer game" forever.

    Issue 2: When I go to Play -> Friends -- sometimes I've seen their game pop up on the screen, but it has not worked for the past several days. When it did work, it was very hit and miss. Sometimes it would just stay stuck on the first step (Connecting
    to server I think) - I would reboot the app and sometimes that would fix it. But for the last several days their game doesn't even appear. So then they send me an invite, but I end up with the problem on Issue 1.

    Issue 3: When my younger son tries to purchase something that costs money on Marketplace, it just says something like "This shouldn't take very long"... but again it just waits forever. With my older son I immediately see the approval request pop up on
    my ipad and i approve it. With my younger son, the first time he sent an approval request, I saw it, but then the purchase just got stuck at "This shouldn't take very long...". When we've retried it, I was able to purchase a free marketplace item, but not
    a paid item.

    I appreciate any help!

    :)

    Minecraft - transferring progress and coins - kindle to ipad

    Hi,

    My son has Minecraft on his kindle fire but is getting an iPad for his birthday. If we buy Minecraft for his iPad can he then transfer his progress and coins to the iPad? If so how do we do that?

    Thanks
    Hi There,

    I am wondering if this is a xbox related issue, as you have mentioned you Your son has minecraft on his amazon kindle fire, And you are getting him an Ipad, I am unsure if you can transfer his progress and coins, this would be an issue for minecraft. Contact
    them here. https://minecraft.net/en-us/help/

    Minecraft Bedrock on Ipad login issue

    Hello August O, my name is Jose, an independent advisor, and it's a pleasure to assist you.

    I'm sorry for the issues you're experiencing. Here are some steps you could try to address the login issue in Minecraft Bedrock on your iPad:

    Log Out and Log Back In:

    Log out of any Microsoft account associated with Minecraft on your iPad.

    Restart the Minecraft app.

    Try logging in again with your email and password.

    Check Internet Connection:

    Ensure your iPad is connected to the Internet reliably.
    Consider trying a different Wi-Fi connection if possible.

    Update the App:

    Make sure you have the latest version of the Minecraft Bedrock app installed on your iPad.
    Visit the App Store and check for updates to the app.

    Change Password:

    If the issues persist, try changing the password for your Microsoft account from a different device, like a computer.
    Then, use the new password to attempt logging into Minecraft on your iPad.

    Reset Network Settings:

    Go to Settings on your iPad.
    Select "General" and then "Reset."
    Choose "Reset Network Settings." This will reset network settings, but be aware it will also delete Wi-Fi passwords.

    Reinstall Minecraft:

    Uninstall the Minecraft app from your iPad.
    Reinstall the app from the App Store.

    Contact Minecraft Support:

    If the issues persist, you may want to reach out to Minecraft support for additional assistance.
    Remember, these are general steps, and the exact solution may depend on the specific nature of the problem. If none of these steps resolves the issue, I would recommend reaching out directly to Minecraft support for personalized assistance. I hope you can resolve this issue soon and enjoy the game!

    Minecraft login issues on Ipad

    I see, since you aren't facing any issues with the Microsoft account this is either Ipad settings related, or Minecraft account related. It could be that he has some kind of restrictions on his Minecraft account (not sure because only Mojang support could confirm or deny that). In this case, the best thing you could do is get in touch with the developer of the game themselves to narrow the issue and find a solution for your case. You can get in touch with them by submitting a request through => Submit a request – Home (minecraft.net).

    As for the Xbox App situation, I would like you to troubleshoot the issue by following the steps mentioned here => Troubleshoot issues in the Xbox app on mobile | Xbox Support.

    Good luck, and let me know how it goes if you find the time!
