    So I'm trying to get Minecraft on MacOs, but since I am a child in a Microsoft family I have to ask for permission. The E-mail has been responded to and the request has been accepted but all I get is a message saying: "Working on it, it looks like this request got accepted the game should be added soon" but I nor my parent has payed yet and it has been a few days. Please respond!

    Thank you for the quick response Rodrigo Oliver, but the problem lies on the fact that I can't ask for approval again because it always says how it was accepted the second I send it.

    Thank you for the support!

    Minecraft Launcher and the website tell me to buy Game Pass for PC even though I have Ultimate

    Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    Try downloading Minecraft Launcher on ONLY MICROSOFT STORE on your friend's or family member windows desktop/laptop using your account. 2nd Sign in the account that you own the gamepass to the minecraft java. The game will verify that you own the gamepass then you're processed when it says "play with gamepass" than the demo version. Final step is to download minecraft launcher on your MacOS from minecraft(dot)net/download then download the MacOS version and after downloaded you sign in with gamepass account then you're done.

    I'm saying to download from MS store on your friend's or family's windows pc is because the MS store version will actually validate your gamepass than the minecraft.net version. After you've validate on your windows you can go to your Mac and download from minecraft.net/download for macOS then sign in the account that you own the gamepass.

    Would I be able to play Minecraft on my Mac, if I purchase it through the Xbox website?

    Hi there!

    As long as you purchase the Minecraft Java Edition, it will work on your MacOS. Be sure to use the same Microsoft account to access the game on your MacOS so your game license will be detected in game.
