I was able to resolve this myself by rebooting my console AND then signing out of my XBox account and signing back in. Then I relaunched Minecraft. Which is not intuitive at all as no other games on XBox force you to sign out nor does MC display a message saying you have to do so.
But after I did that all my issues were resolved.
Then can you tell me WHY my console is not updating when it ran the entire update yesterday (i have confirmed there are no other updates available under game management). I have rebooted the entire console twice and I always quit the game when playing.
This is NOT resolved.
As I said in previous comment - my xbox X updated yesterday. I rebooted the console twice.
The Minecraft screen says 1.19.2 versus .1 - which I assume would indicate an even LATER version????
I do not use local worlds. All i know is my realms updated, my version changed to what it apparently should not be yet nothing seems changed AND i am still shown the "Your Realm will need an update soon screen".
By way, I can confirm that under my game Manage Minecraft options it says I have version 1.19.202.70 installed now.
It just updated. I had to reboot. But just a heads up that the message i received about checking the store for updates was very misleading and incorrect.
I understand you don’t want to have unresolved issues… but it was a valid bug. The application gave no indication to sign off and on and the error messages were extremely vague. I also did look at support first and at the time nothing was posted on your Twitter support that there were issues.
It’s resolved on my end and it’s still a bug as the platform basically breaks without any message or indication as to why. Call it invalid if you like but it’s still a bug.
I don’t think anyone is actually moderating this. So for others who had this issue, I logged out of Xbox account on my console, signed back in again and then accessed Minecraft. Then and only then was I prompted to get the update / hot fix. I choose Continue and after that the update installed and I had access to Realms.
Just a heads up. It only happens with Minecraft. I don’t have update issues with any other game.
