Minecraft Realms with Child Account

CadetSeeker7124 · Oct 1, 2017

Have two child accounts associated with the email/account posting this request that cannot access minecraft realms.

I am asking an Admin to promote the 618 and 816 accounts to adult so that the purchases can go through.

how to add child to xbox live without a console so that minecraft realms work?

We're trying to use Minecraft PE to connect to a realm. The child account was created from Minecraft PE on iOS, the account appears under the parent Microsoft account family, but does not appear under the Parent Xbox Live family.

The child was successfully invited to a realm created by the parent, but when the child tries to connect, gets the message "You cannot play on Realms because of how your Xbox Live account is set up. This can be changed in your privacy & online safety settings
on Xbox.com".

However, the child can't change those settings, the parent needs to, but the parent can only change them from the Xbox account view (where, in this case, the child does not show up).

We do not have an Xbox console. We just want to play MInecraft with family and friends on a realm.

Microsoft support says there's no way to add the child without an Xbox console. I wonder why Minecraft PE walked us through creating a child account in the first place?

If you would like to change there preferences to adult you can check out this tutorial video showing you how to do this using the Privacy and online safety settings.

Link to video:

After you do this if it still is giving you issue do to your setting, under account go to content restrictions, and make sure that the account has access to content: unrestricted.

Hope this helps, Happy Gaming!!!

Setting privacy parameters to allow all for privacy worked, but to no effect.

Setting xbox360 parameters to all does not stick after hitting save -- reported in referenced ticket # (we've been through all that, yards of chat-text)

Multigameplaying is enabled, but still cannot sign up for realms, gives the message: "You cannot play on Realms because of how your Xbox Live Account is set up"

It further says that this can be changed privacy settings, but it isn't true, or something else is wrong.

Prior ticked suggested the accounts needed cellphone#, we have that now, why is this not working? and who can we talk to to get it working?

SOLVED:

Solution is to open up all Windows 10, not Xbox one, or Xbox360 settings.

Clearly, Android and IOS realms settings are being governed by Windows rather than XBOX.

There needs to be a note in the FAQ about this -- it shouldn't have been this hard.

I have a Xbox Game Pass and for Minecraft the child account has the realm plus 2 users.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums for this issue with Minecraft Realms on the Nintendo Switch. Based on the message you received, it may be possible that your account doesn't have the correct permissions to access online multiplayer across different
devices.

Is your account a child or adult account? Players under 13 years old will have online multiplayer disabled by default with Minecraft and
won’t be able to join Realms or servers unless a parent changes their account settings.
For help with changing these account settings, you will need to change your
Privacy and Online settings of the Xbox Live account.

For further information on this and other information related to Minecraft Realms or Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch, I recommend the following support articles:

I hope that this information helps out!

Thank you for the reply Jasmine,

This texture pack is on my child's account, I can PM you details if needed. Some other relevant information that may assist in a solution:

The texture pack says "owned" in the Minecraft Store Page
The realm is paid from that account
The texture pack has worked on the Realm previously (until now), since the realm was started by the child account

Having checked the link you provided, I actually don't see the texture pack on either my or my child's account, that's odd, surely it has to be somewhere?

Thanks Again,

H.D.Tony
