  1. Problem migrating Minecraft Mojang to Microsoft Account


    Son had a mojang minecraft account. We were prompted to migrate it and we did this, following the instructions. After we were taken to his microsoft account it prompted him to accept a different gamertag. His existing mojang gamertag didn't appear. He set up his new gamertag and completed the migration. Now, when he goes to the launcher site it goes to a new blank account and invites him to buy minecraft. His mojang account was registered to my email address but he migrated to his own microsoft account. He can get onto his actual minecraft account from minecraft.net but he can't launch his account and play the game from there because the launcher is now loading the new gamertag account. What do we do? How does he retrieve his old gamertag and gaming history for minecraft? TIA

    :)

    Your Mojang account was not migrated to a Microsoft account?

    How were you signing in to Minecraft?

    Account Recovery/Migration

    Hello Wayne Lau1,



    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    Mojang accounts were migrated for a period of time with the aim of moving all players' Minecraft accounts under Microsoft accounts. This migration process involved transferring data and game information related to Mojang accounts to the new Microsoft account system. During the migration, players will receive detailed instructions and steps on how to perform the migration via email. This means that during the migration process, players only need to follow the guidelines to seamlessly transfer their Minecraft game progress, purchase history, and other account information to their Microsoft account.



    However, with the passage of time, the deadline for Minecraft account migration has ended and new Mojang account migration requests are no longer being accepted. In other words, you will no longer be able to log in to Minecraft using your old Mojang account. all players must access and log in to Minecraft through their Microsoft account. as a result of this change, any players who have not completed the account migration will no longer be able to continue to play with their original Mojang account.



    In order to continue playing, you will need to log in to Minecraft with a Microsoft account, and if you don't already have a Microsoft account, you can easily create one and associate it with your Minecraft game. Note that the only way to purchase Minecraft is through a Microsoft account, so if you wish to repurchase or continue using Minecraft, it is recommended that you purchase and use a Microsoft account to play the game.



    To summarize, with the migration process complete, Microsoft accounts are now the only way to log in to Minecraft. We recommend creating and using a Microsoft account to purchase and log into Minecraft as soon as possible.



    You can also contact the support staff of the corresponding game to find out why.



    Best regards

    Microsoft store blocking download of app I bought from someone else

    Hello OxindeGaming,

    Thank you for reaching out to us with your issue!

    When you purchased the Minecraft Java originally, did you purchase it with a Mojang account or a Microsoft account? If you purchased it with a Mojang account, have you tried migrating the account to a Microsoft account yet? You can learn more about migrating your Mojang account to a Microsoft account here:

    How to Migrate Your Mojang Account to a Microsoft Account – Home (minecraft.net)

    You can also try installing the Minecraft launcher through the Xbox app and installing Java from there.

    Both Java and Bedrock Minecraft missing from my migrated account?

    Hello, Portia. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    Did you have two mojang accounts (one with Java and one with Bedrock), or did you have one mojang account (which had Java) and one Microsoft account with Minecraft for Windows, and you migrated this mojang account with Java to the Microsoft account that had Minecraft for Windows?

    I ask because you cannot migrate two mojang accounts to only one Microsoft account. So if you had one mojang account with java and one mojang account with bedrock, you migrated them to two different Microsoft accounts.

    I can't login to the correct Minecraft account

    Hello,



    Welcome to the Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well. I can see that you are having difficulties with your Minecraft Accounts. Let me see how I can assist you with this concern.

    To begin, Microsoft accounts can only link to one Mojang account. Multiple Java Mojang accounts need to be migrated to separate Microsoft accounts.
