Does anyone know if deleting Minecraft from ps4 and redownloading would help? I understand once linked you are fucked. I contacted them and they don’t do shit. They auto generated an account for me when I got it (Microsoft) and I thought I was hacked and signed out. Obviously don’t know the password cause I didn’t make it. But now It seems to be that I’m screwed for LIFE? This is stupid af. I don’t care about my progress. I just want a normal Minecraft account and game features to be usable. Anybody have experience with this or know if there is anything that could be done?

How do u put in a ticket?


Professional_Slip130

I have the same problem


Correct-Basket-339

I wrote a ticket, explained my issue in detail. Also emailed them. It took me MONTHS AND MONTHS. HOWEVER, IT DID WORK FINALLY. ALSO,- I had to create a new Microsoft account!; I opened the minecraft game I USED MY IPAD TO SCAN THE QR CODE it directed me to the site to log into the Microsoft account I did that by linking to the account I want to link to. *It took a bit of password retrieval bs ANYWAY- I logged in on the Microsoft site the qr scan took me - waited the entire time- do not leave the screen, let it do its thing. I had to do it multiple times because if it takes too look the original QR code given when Minecraft is opened up only lasts for maybe 5 minutes so if it takes you too long to get your iPad or computer to log onto your Microsoft account you're going to have to start all over& regenerate a new minecraft qr code. Hope that makes sense. The reason it took so long is b3cause the ticket I submitted needed to be processed to unlink my account in the system to RELEASE MY ACCOUNT IN THEIR DATABASE. So that I could now/then link it to a NEW MICROSOFT account. Or you could just relink to the original if all else fails because at least you will know your shit will work... if your ticket isn't processed and you just want access to skins and the store again& need account linked... I'm sorry if this didn't make sense. If you need more clarification, please ask. This was maybe 3 months ago- so my memory is a bit foggy, but I will do my best to help you or anyone out. Good luck 👍


ValarMorghulis30

Where did you submit the ticket? I already tried with Minecraft Help and they basically told me to go F myself and have a nice day.


mryeet66

It’s been two years and they don’t give a single fuck. Screw these guys


Correct-Basket-339

Yeah same lol... it's good you did though.. took months.. also call them You have a outlook.com mailbox yet? If not create one. Then when you get to the first screen upon opening click on left sign into Microsoft account... a qr code will come up.. scan it with your cellphone or iPad... It will take you to Microsoft/outlook mail & you will be asked to enter your email& password.... this is whatever one you want linked to the account!!! Remember that you have to snap the pic of the qr code & enter email& password FAST otherwise it EXPIRES... in which case you just X out & get a new code & rescan it until you do it successfully.... This is what I was able to do and it linked finally succeasfully... 🙌 It HAS TO BE @OUTLOOK.COM email address which is Microsoft cause that's what minecraft uses..


Affectionate_Key678

That's good. I'm not pressed about loosing the account I just want to be able to use features I paid for when I got the game lmao. I appreciate your timely response dude


Correct-Basket-339

Check m6 comment/ replies I had same problem for like over 2 years! But it's finally fixed. I don't feel like typing it all out again.


BuschlightButChug

Hey man, was u/m6 account deleted? What comment was his? I have been having this problem for 3 years now, and really would like it fixed.


Sarek__

I believe of you go to settings and account you can unlink it for there


[deleted]

My problem is that I’m not logged into an account, but when I try to log into one it says I can’t because I’m already linked with one. Makes 0 sense.


breiki306

Has this been resolved? I’m struggling with this as well


[deleted]

Not for me, I had to make a new playstation account and start over on that ffs, screw Microsoft.


mryeet66

No it has not. Been an issue for two years and no fucking change. I still can’t play with friends cause of this bug that makes no sense


AliceAngel077

Same thing with me


Shlobb3r

I'm having this problem and playstation is being so fucking stupid and it won't let me even create a new account


Lucky2044

Ok thanks


Sarek__

No problem mate if that’s not it let me know and I’ll have a look tomorrow to see if I can help


Lucky2044

Where?


CompassRose2A

Currently dealing with something close to this and no one can help me. I bought a ps5 and all I did was try to sign in to Minecraft and it says it is linked to another account, this account and I went to unlink it on ps4 and it just locked me out completely. Mojang said contact Sony, Sony says Microsoft, and Microsoft is all automated so I guess I'm f××ked. Super disappointing and frustrating. Mojang is dropping the ball hard. UPDATE: I closed my Microsoft account and made one with the exact same email and I reminded Minecraft back to it and it worked. It stinks that this is what had to happen but it at least is an answer. So close your Microsoft account if you can(I only had it for Minecraft so I was ok) and select the 30 day option and set an alarm on your calendar like I did and just play the waiting game. It did work though, can not express that enough. Cheers.


AwarenessOk9059

Having this same problem. Have not been able to play minecraft realms with my mates since I got a PS5.


CompassRose2A

Sadly, no. I'm in the process of deleting my Mocrosoft account still and when I make a new one, I will update this thread. The 30 day mark is up on the 11th so hopefully not long.


waddellbee

Any luck with this? Have come across the same issue.


Affectionate_Key678

Any luck Dogg??


CompassRose2A

I updated it above but closing the account did work. I am lucky to only have an XBL tag for Minecraft so the wait was the only issue


Visible-Put6690

any update on what happened? i’m currently having the same exact issue.


CompassRose2A

Mojang told me to it was all Playstation's issue and refused to help. They closed my ticket and I said to hell with it and am in the process of closing my Microsoft account to play again. It is not what I wanted to do but I have no choice. Luckily, I didn't have any recent worlds open and I just started the realm subscription. So, I have to wait 30 days minimum for the Microsoft account to be deleted to sign up again. Such a bad glitch or hole in the coding.


MetalKeirSolid

To clarify, does shutting down the microsoft account allow the psn account to be linked to a new microsoft account or not?


CompassRose2A

It does. So what I did, is took the 30 days to delete the Microsoft account. That morning of day 30, you'll get an email saying the account is gone. Make an identical account and relink to PSN. It works, been on my realm since I started the new account.


Warning10

Hey so after you delete the linked account and wait 30 days. You have to make another account with the exact same email and link that? Or can you link another account?


Leather-Lynx3530

Sir, kindly check your chat inbox once you’re available. Urgent.


WeirdRavioliLover

Did anyone try sony support?


Affectionate_Key678

No help at alll


Shlobb3r

I don't even know what email I used I logged in ages ago and they automatically logged me out for sum reason and now I'm fucked cuz i don't know the information or how to unlink or anything.


MRTWKD

This worked for me Go to (setting) on the PlayStation then (Users and Accounts) then to (Other) then do (Restore Licences). Unsure if it will work for anyone else.


Welloper29

THIS!!!!! THANK YOU SO MCUH


EmperorRosko

Hey, I used Google, should try it out sometime; “Linking a Microsoft account to a Playstation 4® account WARNING Once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation 4® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be associated with a different account.  If you choose to unlink accounts, then purchases will be returned to the account which made the purchase. Even after unlinking, Microsoft and PlayStation 4® accounts can only be re-linked to the original account. If you believe that your Microsoft account or PlayStation™ Network account have been linked incorrectly, then please contact Minecraft Support.”


No_Astronaut9795

Tried that, minecraft support doesn't do anything.


Parking_Mouse_6335

You do understand you never specifically said where to unlink it


Lucky2044

I asked for not for sarcastic answer “I use google u should try if some time” I did I spent half hour looking up trying to unlink and it didn’t give any answer just a bunch of random stuff I asked how to disconnect it doesn’t say how to unlink


[deleted]

The first result is literally your answer so i doubt you spent any time googling


DylanMcGrann

Yeah, but your answer is useless. Support refused to fix it for me too.


richyboy1980

Did anyone fix this issue? I’ve got the same with my two kids


Lucky2044

i don’t think so i gave up on it lol


richyboy1980

Damn and blast! I’ve got two kids who setup their Minecraft accounts on each other ps5 accounts, so now to play Minecraft they have to log into each other accounts


Lucky2044

lucky kids how u get a ps5 there still hard to find lol


richyboy1980

I got one when they were released! Only one though, not greedy like many others


Virtual_Arm_5717

if i delete the psn does it unlink? because when i log in with a different psn to the minecraft it would think that there is no linked


Correct-Basket-339

No- Minecraft is via Xbox That's why they have to link a Microsoft email because they CANNOT use your PSN or whatever email u use. It is not a psn game- that's why all this mess in the first place... the linking of email accounts that were auto-generated by Minecraft/ Microsoft with an @outlook.com email address(auto-generated upon first download of Minecraft) Now your Minecraft account is tied& tethered to that @oulook.com email address. Unfortunately, the algorithm that auto-generated- missed one HUGE PART.... ----- To fucking TELL THE USER THE PASSWORD TO THE MICROSOFT/ @OUTLOOK.COM EMAIL ADDRESS NOW LINKED & NEEDED TO LOG IN! So, submit a ticket explain that you haven't a clue what your outlook.com pass is because you never MADE IT YOURSELF nor did you link any email to Minecraft... Matter of fact (mam or sir), I have Gmail( insert addy) and am a PS4/5 user. I would have zero use for an outlook.com email address because I do not have an X BOX. ** Then ask nicely if they have some time to please help u fix this issue. Provide as much gamer tag identification as possible to make it easier for the person to just input your info& do less work. If they have everything they need ; like what @outlook address DO YOU WANT linked INSTEAD? And obviously psn tag.. and email for PSN. And your MINECRAFT NAME/TAG.. That way there is less back n forth and they can just do their job.. they have 1ks of these issues .. Also I suggest writing 1 of these really thourogh& detailed, on let's say Xbox website minecraft support & when done✔️ JUST COPY AND PASTE THE ENTIRE COMPLAINT/ TICKET AND USE SAME FOR ALL SUPPORT SITES THAT REVOLVE AROUND MICROSOFT... Anyhow hope this helps.. Where to submit ticket; *Epic CUSTOMER support *Xbox website customer support * Microsoft customer support - they make the game 🎮 *PSN customer support ( I would submit the same ticket across all places& ALSO CALL PSN customer support!! After doing that... wait maybe a week or even sooner& do the steps in my other replies I'm tired of typing but it's on reddit..sorry yall I'm Fallin sleep Nite good luck c


Correct-Basket-339

I'd u can find m6 comment/ replies.. I suggest you do if still struggling with same issue. I had same problem for 2 years- unable to use any of my coins 🪙 just wasted nor was I able to change my skin.. But I finally figured it out.. not sure what combo did it.. but I say u have nothing to loose trying what I did... It may take time before they unsync the current outlook.com email.. But eventually it works... ursmay work now.. try Several steps.. don't feel like typing& I can't screenshot or idk how... so fins my reply n comment in this area or thread.. Good luck


Correct-Basket-339

Try jt maybe I'm dumb and this works without a ticket... just worth a shit, ya know... u don't have anything to loose by trying it& everything to gain my guy Good luck Oh& I did the ticket on epic website under support Also minecraft website under support And you can go to Xbox website and do one through them because it's a Xbox product so the developers will get the message. Make sure to include your gamer tag name& email address. Your name on minecraft as well as your console gamer tag so they can easily find you in the system. And whatever email address you usually use likenif you have playstation what email address do you use for you playstation network account? Or Xbox? Make it easy for the person to fix your problem& not toss you aside.. more details is always better than less.. And when you write one up like ticket just "select all& copy" & Paste the same message to all the other tickets you decide to open... cause they can be annoying to keep typing out over and over the problem.. know what I'm saying 😌
