My Minecraft on Xbox says I am not authorized to play multiplayer

Alu Valon · Dec 21, 2021

My minecraft pulls messages up when I try to go to the multiplayer or play with friends sections of the game. It says I can't do that because of the restrictions on my account. I went to the website it offered and made sure all my settings were set to allow. I did the same thing on the actual console to ensure it wasn't a problem there. It still said the same thing. My game was working fine yesterday but now I can't play because of restrictions which is frustrating.

Sign in with your account at Xbox.com, then click your profile icon in the top right of the page.

- From the dropdown click the three dots and then Xbox Settings.

-That will take you to a page that has your Privacy & Online Safety Settings, from there you can toggle everything to 'Allow'.

I am playing on console. The message says that my Microsoft account doesn't authorize me to join multiplayer games. Thanks

I am having this trouble after playing it for a couple of months. It says I am no longer authorized to play. Why?

I play Minecraft with my friend over mobile. It was working the whole time, until now.

The issue is, when I am in my world, my friend tries to join but it says “Unable to connect to world”.

We both use the same version of Minecraft [1.14.60 as of 6/16/20]. I also have multiplayer set on the world too.

I tried inviting him, but the issue persisted. I tried joining his world, but it showed me the message.

My Xbox account is allowed to play multiplayer and no parental controls are set.

What do I do? Please reply as soon as possible.

Thanks.

The mc servers may have been down, or all the multiplayer servers that host your world are all on the newer versions

If I may ask, may I know the exact error message upon attempting to play the multiplayer feature of Minecraft, please?
