    need help with settings to join friends in minecraft

    Hi, JOSEN my name is oskayra, and i will be happy to help you
    It seems that your Minecraft account is mistakenly linked to an Xbox Family group, which is preventing you from changing your multiplayer settings. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

    Remove your Xbox account from the Xbox Family group: If your Minecraft account is linked to an Xbox account, you'll need to remove it from the Xbox Family group. To do this, go to

    https://www.xbox.com/apps/family-settings-app

    and sign in to the Xbox account that is managing the family group. Click on the child's account that you want to remove and select "Remove from family."

    Re-link your Minecraft account to your Xbox account: Once your Xbox account is no longer part of the Xbox Family group, you can re-link it to your Minecraft account. To do this, go back to Minecraft.net and sign in to your account. Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and select "Settings." Click on "Connected Accounts" and click on "Link Xbox Account." Follow the prompts to link your Xbox account to your Minecraft account.

    Change your multiplayer settings: Once your Xbox account is no longer part of the Xbox Family group, you should be able to change your multiplayer settings freely. Go to Minecraft.net and sign in to your account. Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and select "Settings." Click on "Privacy" and select "Allow." This will allow you to join multiplayer games with anyone.

    Check if your Minecraft account is linked to an Xbox account: Go to Minecraft.net and sign in to your account. Click on your profile picture in the top right corner and select "Settings." Click on "Connected Accounts" and check if your Xbox account is listed there.

    If you still can't join your friends in Minecraft after following these steps, you may need to contact Mojang Support for further assistance. They may be able to help you troubleshoot the issue or provide you with additional instructions.

    Here is the link to Mojang Support:

    So... it appears you're having problems connecting to your friends worlds in Minecraft for Windows 10.

    I would have them check their in-game settings in Minecraft under the main menu there, and make sure that Online play is enabled. Sometimes this is switched to being disabled and therefore they cannot join any online games and friends cannot join their game
    either. Both you and your friends should check in Minecraft settings and make sure that Online play is enabled and friends are allowed to join. Then you can select which permissions you would like to enable for your friends when they join your world after
    that.

    Cross play on a child account

    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! :)

    I joined a minecraft realm with my friend yesterday but then today when i tried to get back on today it said i needed game pass to join my friends on minecraft now. why is this the case?

    Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    If it asks you for a game pass to join your friends in Minecraft, it may be because the kingdom owner has changed the kingdom's privacy settings. If the realm owner has set the privacy settings to “Friends Only,” only players who have an Xbox Game Pass membership will be able to join the realm.

    If you're not sure if the kingdom owner has changed their privacy settings, you can ask them directly. If you don't have an Xbox Game Pass membership and want to join the realm, you'll need to purchase a membership or ask the realm owner to change your privacy settings.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards.
