    Why won't my Xbox account let me play with friends? (Minecraft)


    I tried to play on an online server with my friend on Minecraft. When I logged onto Minecraft I noticed that where realms would show up, there was a box that read 'you cannot play on realms because of how your Microsoft account is set up. See instructions for reviewing and changing your privacy settings at aka.ms/MCMultyplayerHelp.' Underneath, a button that said 'get help fixing this' I ignored it at first because I wasn't using realms, then I went onto the servers tab and no servers showed up. So instead we decided to play on a world we had together. I joined and sent them an invite, they didn't receive it. I then clicked on the button and it took me to a website that just said stuff like 'check your WIFI' (which I had already done) and 'try reopening Minecraft.' I had done that too and still no. I then saw something that said that in order to play online, I needed to have Xbox live gold. we don't have it on every account but we do have it on the main one which we keep logged on at all times and we are still able to play online. That account had been on the whole time. We had never had this problem before, even when we didn't have Xbox live gold. I the proceeded to check on that account if the subscription had run out. I didn't know how to check so that was a no. I still don't know what to do even after looking through this website. I think it is something to do with my account. I do not think I need Xbox live gold because we have never had this problem before.

    Please help me Why won't my Xbox account let me play with friends? (Minecraft) :)

    Side note: I have had to switch to an adult account because I couldn't add friends on my previous account.

    :)

    My Minecraft Won't Let Me Play

    Hi mac-dude,

    Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

    Were you able to migrate your Mojang account for Minecraft to a Microsoft Account? If yes, kindly try to access this page then try to log in using the Sign in with Microsoft option: Log in | Minecraft.

    If not and you are still using the Legacy Minecraft Account, please consider migrating your account to a Microsoft Account for added security. See: How to Migrate a Legacy Minecraft Account to a Microsoft Account – Home for details.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Sincerely,

    Marrion

    My Minecraft Won't Let Me Play

    Hello Otto K1,

    Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

    Based on your description, you are trying to play Minecraft and it is showing you need to buy it or play demo version. Let us check on this together and sort this out in timely manner.

    We know how important it is for you to get back to gaming especially this holiday season. Let us first, locate the account that was associated to your game in Minecraft's website (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/login). Please select the green button on the page and sign in with your Microsoft account. Then, check if the license of the game is available on the page.

    You will then, ensure that you have the right credentials because you will need to sign out on Microsoft Store, Xbox app and Minecraft Launcher. Update the Xbox app, Gaming Services and Minecraft Launcher. Lastly, sign in to Microsoft Store, Xbox app and Minecraft Launcher to see if your issue on the game fixes.

    We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.
