    Multiplayer greyed out - Minecraft Java


    Trying to get my kid's minecraft account set up so she can connect with the rest of the family via local server. I've set up her account exactly the same as my son's, but the multiplayer options are greyed out. I've checked the Xbox Family settings, MS family settings, all show she should be able to play. Anyone have any ideas?

    :)

    Hi Cameron! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft multiplayer.

    I just want to confirm by family settings did you mean you have already updated the Xbox privacy settings of your son's account?

    Just in case you haven't managed your son's account privacy settings yet, kindly proceed to manage your child account's privacy settings using your adult/organizer account. According to the official Xbox website here's how to do it: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...ttings by selecting View details & customize.

    "Sign in to your adult/organizer Microsoft account at Xbox.com.

    Select your Gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

    Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & Online Safety.

    Note: Because you’re accessing sensitive info, you may have to enter your password or PIN.

    Select the gamertag for the child account that you want to manage.

    Select either the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

    Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

    Note: You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved."

    Then check if your son will be able to play Minecraft Java edition multiplayer online.

    If you have done all the steps already yet the issue persists, I highly suggest you reach out to Mojang Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate this case:

    Hi Brandon! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft account.

    It's important to note that this is a public user-to-user community forum, and none of us here work for Microsoft.

    Based on the error message, it appears the system has detected that your account is a child account. Your account needs to be in a family group as a family member in order to fix the issue.

    A child account is registered on the birthdate 21 years old and below upon the account's first creation while an adult account is registered on the birthdate 22 years old and older. Even if you change the date of birth, the system will still follow the original date of birth registered when the account is created.

    Note: The solution to this issue may take a lot of steps.

    Here's what you need to do please create a new Microsoft adult account with a new email address on account.microsoft.com

    Once you have the adult account, sign in to account.microsoft.com > Family settings > then add your child/main account as a "Family member"

    Note: Ensure that your adult account is the "Organizer", and your child/main account is the "Family Member" to make this work.

    Once you have successfully added your main/child account to your Microsoft family, you can proceed to manage your child account's privacy settings using your adult account according to the official Xbox website: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...ttings by selecting View details & customize.

    "Sign in to your adult Microsoft account at Xbox.com.

    Select your Gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

    Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & Online Safety.

    Note: Because you’re accessing sensitive info, you may have to enter your password or PIN.

    Select the gamertag for the child/main account that you want to manage.

    Select either the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

    Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

    Note: You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved."

    Then check if you're able to play Minecraft multiplayer on your main account. It may take at least 24 hours to make sure the changes will be applied.

    Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

    Best Regards,
    Darhyl
