    I purchased Minecraft on my Lenovo android device and am trying to download it on my Laptop. When I go into my account, it states Minecraft is, "This app is available for all of your devices" but when I choose, "Install on more devices", my laptop does not show up and I cannot find an area to add it to "my devices". Please help.

    :)

    Have purchased Minecraft. Unable to sign in to Minecraft and set up account

    On the upper left corner click on the Profile and choose sign out then sign in to the account you use to purchase Minecraft.

    Unable to add a device to Microsoft account

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Ideally, when we sign in to a device using the Microsoft account, the device is already added to the Microsoft account. However, as you have mentioned you are unable to add the device to the Microsoft account after removing it. We would suggest you
    to try converting the account as a local account and then converting it as a Microsoft account. This should add the device to the Microsoft account. Kindly refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows key + I, to open
      Settings
      .
    2. Click on Accounts and select
      Your info
      on the left pane.
    3. Now, click on Sign in with a local account instead and follow the on-screen instructions.
    4. Once the account is converted as a local account, sign in to the account, go to settings and click on
      Sign in with a Microsoft account.
    5. Follow the on-screen instructions to convert the account. Once the account is converted as a Microsoft account, the device will be listed in your Microsoft account.


    Meanwhile, we would like to know the following details to assist you with the Minecraft issue:



    • How are you trying to install Minecraft?
    • Which edition of Minecraft are you trying to install?


    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.



    Regards,

    Switch laptop sign in from MS account to Local Account questions

    Hi, Ive just switched from signing in to my laptop with a Microsoft Account to signing in with a Local Account instead. My laptop was always listed as a Device on the opening screen along with a map showing its location when I looked in my Microsoft Account. Under Devices I could also view my laptop along with other bits of various information about the device and its location was always shown on a map there too. After signing into my laptop with my Local Account ..If I sign in separately to my Microsoft Account afterwards Ive just noticed that having switched to a Local Account my laptop isnt shown on the opening Microsoft Account screen anymore and its not listed in devices either. Is this normal behaviour? I was expecting to still find my laptop listed in Devices. Also...Under Update and Security/Activation..it used to say Digital Licence linked to a Microsoft Account. Now it just says Windows is Activated with a digital licence. Is all this normal behaviour if you sign into a laptop with a Local Account instead of a Microsoft Account?
