MineCraft realms doesn’t let me play because is supposed security settings but I’m already...

Hello curabruh,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are unable to join Minecraft Realms due to your account's privacy and online safety settings. You may need to change the

privacy and online safety settings online. Are you playing the game on a Xbox One? Is your account a child account? If your account is a child account, you will need to have the parent account adjust the account's security settings. The article we provided
explains how to complete this process. Be sure to let us know the results!

I’m on Xbox Minecraft and it won’t let me play multiplayer realms/join friends or any server ur says I have to change my Microsoft account setting but doesn’t work once I change the setting.

Hello,

I’m a **age removed for privacy** Minecraft Pocket Edition user from the United States and would like to purchase Minecraft Realms so I can play Minecraft multiplayer with my **age removed for privacy** brother, but am experiencing difficulties in doing so. Here is what the problem looks like on my side:

In the Minecraft PE app, I tapped on the “Start Minecraft Realms 30 Day trial” button, then agreed to the Terms and Conditions. The Microsoft system greeted me with a message saying that I “cannot play on Minecraft Realms because of how (my) account is set up.” It then provided me with a link for how to fix the issue. I tapped it, which brought me to a redirect page, and this stated that I was in a family group and could not change my security settings. Upon further inspection and a look at how to get out of a family group, I found out that the family tab said I was not in one. Additionally, after talking with my parents they have said that they have never set one up. However, the problem still persists and Microsoft keeps insisting that I cannot change my preferences because I’m still supposedly in a family group. What do I do from here so that I can purchase Minecraft Realms? I have a viable debit card, phone number and job and am not sure what to do from here.

Also, quick note: I do not have an Xbox of any kind.

Hello,

Some games require you to enable cross-play in

the game settings to be able to do this - this doesn’t

apply to Minecraft though.

You don't need to manually enable cross play for Minecraft Realms as this is already set up, just make sure your son and his friend’s account privacy settings allow them to play online. To adjust these settings, sign in to the Privacy & online safety page.

https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/help...e-online-safety-and-privacy-settings-xbox-one

Note: If your son is on a child account, an adult from the same Microsoft family will need to sign in and change these account settings.

To play Minecraft Realms, you need to allow the following settings:

“You can play with people outside of Xbox Live”

“You can create and join clubs”

“You can join multiplayer games”

When adjusting any account settings, make sure to select ‘submit’ to confirm and save these changes.

Set the above settings to allow and your son should be able to play online with friends. Although if you experience any issues with this, here is a multiplayer troubleshooting page:

Minecraft Realms FAQ

In case needed, I’ll leave the instructions to join a Realm below:

To join a Realm on Minecraft, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Realms Menu from the Main Menu

of Minecraft.

2. From the list of Realms available to the player, select

the one they want to join.

3. Once selected, that particular Realm will become

available to the player.

Each Realm that a player joins first requires an invitation, indicated by the flashing mail icon.

A Realm's current status is indicated by the colored

dot next to it: green means that the Realm is open

and available to join, yellow indicates that it expires soon, and red indicates that the Realm has expired or has

been closed by the owner.

Any questions, I’m happy to help!

Hi tashyb33!

To make sure, are you using the steps in the
Realms Overview under "How to invite other players to your Realm", for that?

Also, do you see any issue receiving invitations to other players' Minecraft Realms? Are you able to invite those friends to play in other games normally, when you try?

The issue is that nobody on minecraft can invite other people, because the invite doesn’t send for anyone.
