Why won't my Microsoft account connect to playstation?

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello HoshikoDotExe, what kind of error you're experiencing, you've tried signing in with your Microsoft account normally on the Microsoft website and verifying that it's set up correctly, with your information, with the security information, if you haven't already click the link below and sign in with your account.

Hi Eli, my name is Jhon, and will be a pleasure help you

Beforehand, it is important that you keep in mind that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox, which means that we do not have access to any user accounts or information.

According to the official Minecraft website, when that message appears it means that your current PS account has been linked to a different Microsoft account.

Below I will attach the web page to which I refer and I will quote the message that I mentioned before:

Note: This is a non-Microsoft website. The page appears to provide accurate and secure information. Beware of ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as PUPs (potentially unwanted products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before deciding to download and install it.

"WARNING Once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation Network account can be associated with a different account.

If you choose to unlink accounts, purchases will be returned to the account that made the purchase. Even after unlinking, Microsoft and PlayStation accounts can only be relinked to the original account."

What I recommend in this case is that you try to contact the PS team to see if they can tell you which Microsoft account was originally linked to your PS account.

Note: Some of the information, which were gained from this answer, were received in a thread on the Microsoft forum by , and it seemed a good idea, to share this information with you. Source of information (credits to advisor Gerardo):

I hope the information I gave you has been useful, have a happy day.

Like I said originally, I'm aware that once you link a microsoft account it is permanently linked to that playstation account. There has never been a microsoft account connected to my playstation account. There has actually never been a microsoft account connected at all to the playstation I'm using.

Dose your PlayStation account have PlayStation plus? If no that is the reason why you cant connect, my roommate is having the same problem aswell.

The account connection isn't created on PlayStation's end, so it won't show on your PSN account.

Are you sure you're signing in with same PSN and Microsoft account you used on the PS4? The message suggests it's the wrong account.
