Mojang Account Migration Issue

Setting up two-step authentication in my security settings seemed to do the trick and I made the mistake trying to make an entirely separate account rather than just merging my Microsoft with my Mojang. Thank you for the help!

You are the most welcome @Hatmanr!

We are glad that the issue is resolved! If you require any help with any issues, please feel free to come back to the Xbox Forums.

Have a great day and have fun!

Always happy to help!

Hello @Hatmanr!

The first thing I will need you to do is to try to sign in to your Microsoft account through the Xbox website and Microsoft website just to make sure there's no issue with your Microsoft account.

Also, if you haven't already, after the migration, you have to ADD a NEW account, and link it to your Microsoft account.

On the login prompt in the java launcher, go back. You'll see the Mojang account you had been signing into - ignore it, and add a new account to the launcher. Using the email address associated with the Microsoft account you just migrated to, sign in with the email address and password of your Microsoft account.

Make sure to report back!

I hope this helps you out!

Thank you so much this helped! Crazy to think it was so simple, but took this many people to figure out lol. Once again thank you so much!

Hello Francia,

I am afraid that this did not resolve my issue. I am unsure what you mean when you say to manage my Microsoft account. This account I am replying on and the account I wish to migrate are separate, one being a Mojang account only for Minecraft. I wish to migrate my Minecraft account into a Microsoft one so I do not need to purchase Minecraft again.
