Original (the only ones I've ever had) MSA and PSN not linking with each other for...

Hey there, Alex Q1

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Is this Minecraft Bedrock edition on PlayStation?

There is a support article here: PlayStation® Technical Support FAQ | Minecraft Help

However, it mentioned that if you unlink a Microsoft account from the PlayStation account (I know in your case you haven't done this voluntary), then it is unable to be linked back.

Note: As of March 15, 2023, please DO NOT unlink your MSA from your PlayStation account via the in-game menu. You will be unable to link it back if you do so.

I know this isn't ideal, but this may explain why when you try and link your account again it doesn't link. I don't know if this will be fixed, or if they are working on this. I am surprised that Minecraft Support were not able to help or tell you about this though.

Happy New Year!

hello! long ago i linked an MSA ( microsoft account) to my PSN ( playstation) account on minecraft. that account got singed out so long ago that i don’t even remember, now when i try to sign in using a different MSA it says that a MSA is already linked to this Psn account but i dont remember what msa account i linked to my psn account and since im singed out i cannot unlink it. i dont even remember the user name or email or password for the msa that is linked to my PSN account.

much thanks!

Ultimately you're going to have to somehow figure out what the Microsoft accounts email was.

Even if you could unlink the old one, Sony will not allow you to link a new one. They will only let you relink the Microsoft account you first linked.

If you linked this deleted gmail account (that was your Microsoft account) to your PSN account, it cannot be unlinked.

If you recover this gmail account you can actually unlink it from your PSN account, but once you link a Microsoft account to a PSN account, you cannot link any other Microsoft account to it. Only the original one can be linked again.

I'm sorry about that and I hope you understand.

Uh, I have a slim along with the two busted ones. I've now had a total of five 360s with issues and four original Xboxes. I've never had issues of this calibur with any console or any piece of electronc gear ever. In fact, the only other console I've ever
had even one issue with was the original Playstation, which was known for disc-read errors. I'm not buying another 360. In fact, I'm not buying another Microsoft console, period. I was never really impressed with them to begin with. I'm glad you haven't had
issues... You're one of the lucky few.

Hi Pedri G! I hope you are well, delighted to be able to offer you my help!

I'm sorry you're in this situation.

The solution is to link your PSN ID to another Microsoft account, because the
The Microsoft account you are trying to use is already linked to another PSN ID.
Each Microsoft account can only be linked to one PSN ID and vice versa.

Note: If a Microsoft account is linked to a PlayStation account, neither the
Microsoft account nor the PlayStation Network account can be linked to other
accounts.

Best regards,
Daniel.
