#27 [07:10] <Kate> Hello, My son has an ipad Air 1 and the ipad no longer powers on. We will be getting the battery replaced. My question is are his minecraft worlds saved to icloud on regular backups?? Will all his worlds be there when the system is restored after the install to the last backup?
#28 [07:10] <Andrio> Kate, I think so, but can't guarantee anything.
#29 [07:11] <Andrio> Though if you're actually only getting the battery replaced, it might still be usable.
#30 [07:11] <Andrio> assuming nothing else is messed up.
#31 [07:11] <Andrio> I know that it preserved my Dragon Quest VIII save across different devices.
#32 [07:15] <Kate> thanks, I was trying to find a definitive answer before moving forward. Its now worth risking loosing his 100+ worlds until I know for sure;) I'm not sure where to look for the answer.

#77 [10:27] <Haplo> I cannot extend my realm that says 'EXPIRED' because the website says i have an 'UNINITIATED REALM". The website is showing that i have two realms but i have only ever had one. Can anyone tell me what i should do to solve this issue.
#78 [10:47] <Haplo> Sorry, it actually states that i have an 'UNINITIATED REALMS SUBSCRIPTION". When i click on 'EXTEND' it tells me "You have an uninitialized Realms subscription and therefore you can not get another one. Please start the Minecraft client to create your world." This is not possible because only one Realm shows up when i open up the minecraft client.
#79 [10:47] <Haplo> .. the realm i want to extend. The other 'UNINITIATED REALM' that exists somewhere in the ether, i need to have deleted, as i do not know where it came from and is preventing me from extending my original and only realm. Thank you for any help/advice that can be provided. Sorry so long, im confused

I go to redeem my code, but it says it already has been redeemed, and then I go to check my order history on microsoft, but it is blank. I talked to someone from microsoft, and they said I needed to come here
#178 [20:46] <Jeremy> for help.
#179 [20:46] <Jeremy> I have 2 accounts, and both are redeemed apparently. Same issue for both
#180 [20:47] <CubeTheThird> Jeremy, you'll have to contact Mojang support about this
#181 [20:47] <CubeTheThird> ??> Jeremy mojang/email
#182 [20:47] <Mightyena> Jeremy: You can email Mojang by going here: https://help.minecraft.net/hc/requests/new
#183 [20:47] <Mightyena> Jeremy: Note: Do NOT send more than one at a time.
#184 [20:47] <Jeremy> Okay, thank you
#185 [20:47] <Jeremy> Okay, thank you

#188 [21:23] <Victoria> I can't log in to Minecraft, it will either say "cannot contact authentication server", or "invalid email or password", i just changed my password so that's definitely not it. I was also just playing like 15 minutes ago.

#190 [21:23] <mattym> Victoria, Was "cannot contact authentication server" the exact message?
#191 [21:23] <Victoria> yes
#192 [21:24] <mattym> ??> Victoria tools/hjt
#193 [21:24] <Mightyena> Victoria: Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/files/2.0.5%20beta/HijackThis.exe/download
#194 [21:24] <Mightyena> Victoria: Run HijackThis as Administrator, choose "I accept", then "Do a system scan and save a log file". After a while a text file will open. Copy everything, put the log on https://paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link.
#195 [21:24] <Victoria> sounds fishy
#196 [21:24] <CubeTheThird> look up reviews for the tool if you want. It's quite reputable
#197 [21:25] <Victoria> why does it say i'm talking to 3 different people
#198 [21:25] <CubeTheThird> this is a public chatroom
#199 [21:25] <mattym> Victoria, Because you are, ish, ones a bot
#200 [21:26] <Victoria> is this gonna work for Cosmic Sky
#201 [21:26] <Deathdusk> How long does it normally take for tickets to be processes by Mojang for migration related issues with the transaction ID included? I tried tweeting Mojang Support but they didn't give me a straight answer.
#202 [21:26] <Victoria> lol, is there more than one person in here with issues
#203 [21:26] <mattym> Deathdusk, It will take however long it takes. There is no set time
#204 [21:27] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, what's cosmic sky?
#205 [21:27] <Deathdusk> However long it takes sounds scary, especially with no scope of however long it will be.
#206 [21:27] <Victoria> nevermind, is there something else i can do without downloading that thing. i have Avast. i don't have any malware or viruses
#207 [21:28] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, avast isn't fool-proof, but malware and viruses aren't all we look for
#208 [21:28] <Victoria> maybe my account is just throttled?
#209 [21:28] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, no. You wouldn't get that message if that were the case
#210 [21:28] <mattym> Deathdusk, They answer the tickets in the order they are received, so it all depends on how many people submitted before you.
#211 [21:28] <Deathdusk> Alright, well thanks anyway mattym
#212 [21:28] <Victoria> it says both though
#213 [21:28] <Victoria> "cannot contact authentication server", or "invalid email or password"
#214 [21:29] <Deathdusk> If something like 90000 ticks are before me, I'm in for one heck of a ride aren't I? haha
#215 [21:29] <mattym> Victoria, And that indicates its not a throttling issue
#216 [21:29] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, we've seen those messages caused by: anti-virus, malware, VPNs and proxies, tampering of the system's hosts file
#217 [21:29] <Deathdusk> tickets*
#218 [21:30] <CubeTheThird> Deathdusk, at the very least I'd say wait a couple weeks. Did you get the automated response email?
#219 [21:30] <Deathdusk> I did get an automated response email
#220 [21:30] <Deathdusk> The thing is, I was finally able to recover a transaction ID for my account so I unfortunately have two tickets floating in the system
#221 [21:31] <Deathdusk> Oh well, it'll get there eventually :P
#222 [21:31] <Victoria> so you have to have that link? there's no other way?
#223 [21:31] <CubeTheThird> Deathdusk, if they are from the same email address, I suspected they will be able to tie them together
#224 [21:31] <mattym> Deathdusk, If they reply to the first asking for proof, just reply with the ID
#225 [21:31] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, using that tool is the most effective way we can diagnose your issue
#226 [21:31] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, it's one of the most common tools we use here
#227 [21:31] <Deathdusk> Alrighty, will do
#228 [21:32] <Deathdusk> imma go now, was fun
#229 [21:32] * Deathdusk [webchat@pool-96-225-20-118.nwrknj.fios.verizon.net] has quit. (Quit: webchat.esper.net)
#230 [21:34] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, you don't have to run it as administrator if you aren't comfortable doing that. We can work without that part
#231 [21:34] <Victoria> i don't wanna use that at all, so what else can i do
#232 [21:35] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, guess we'll do this the long way. are you using a VPN/Proxy?
#233 [21:37] <Victoria> no
#234 [21:37] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, have you ever used MCLeaks, AltDispenser, or other account switching tools for the game?
#235 [21:37] <Victoria> no
#236 [21:38] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, in that case I will need you to run a malware scan
#237 [21:38] <CubeTheThird> ??> Victoria av/adwcleaner
#238 [21:38] <Mightyena> Victoria: Malwarebytes ADWCleaner is a utility to clean a PC which is infested with malware. Download it here: https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/adwcleaner
#239 [21:38] <Mightyena> Victoria: Run it, click Scan Now, once it completes the scan click Clean & Repair, restart the computer when it asks you to and come back here for further instructions.
#240 [21:40] <Victoria> so i'll have to open a new 'ticket' ?
#241 [21:40] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, umm.. what? ticket for what?
#242 [21:41] <Victoria> basically if i restart my computer, this tab is gonna close
#243 [21:41] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, ah yes. There's only 1 chatroom, so if you come back you'll still end up here
#244 [21:42] <Victoria> oh ok
#245 [21:54] * Victoria [webchat@static-206-162-237-103.wireless.unwiredbb.net] has joined #minecrafthelp
#246 [21:54] <Victoria> now what
#247 [21:54] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, try logging in again
#248 [21:57] <Victoria> should i do minecraft.net or the launcher
#249 [21:57] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, either or
#250 [21:58] <Victoria> okay now it says invalid email or password
#251 [21:58] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, and try a password reset?
#252 [21:59] <Victoria> i already did
#253 [21:59] <Victoria> like 10 minutes ago
#254 [21:59] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, do you know how to edit your system hosts file?
#255 [21:59] <Victoria> for minecraft or
#256 [21:59] <Victoria> the actual pc?
#257 [22:00] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, for your PC
#258 [22:00] <Victoria> i guess so, what do i need to edit that for
#259 [22:01] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, everything you've described (considering we did the malware scan) sounds like tampering of that file
#260 [22:02] <Victoria> it just doesn't make sense, i literally have been on my account for like a week straight, and then all of a sudden , i log out and this happens in the matter of 10 seconds
#261 [22:03] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, if you know how to view your hosts file, it's easy to check if that's the problem
#262 [22:06] <Victoria> is it like this? Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts.
#263 [22:06] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, yes that file
#264 [22:08] <Victoria> after etc, i have no hosts. is that normal
#265 [22:08] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, no, that's not normal. Can you try this
#266 [22:08] <CubeTheThird> ??> Victoria win/hosts/edit
#267 [22:08] <Mightyena> Victoria: To edit your Host file, please do the following: Go to the Start Menu and locate notepad. Right click notepad and select Run as Administrator
#268 [22:08] <Mightyena> Victoria: Press File, then Open. Enter %SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts as the "File name" and press "Open"
#269 [22:09] <Victoria> nvm i got it
#270 [22:09] <Victoria> now what
#271 [22:09] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, do you see anything in that file that has "mojang" in it?
#272 [22:10] <Victoria> lol maybe i'm in the wrong place
#273 [22:10] <Victoria> it says this lmao "This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows."
#274 [22:11] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, yes, that's the standard message for it
#275 [22:11] <Victoria> is that the right place or wrong
#276 [22:11] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, that's right
#277 [22:11] <Victoria> i see nothing about mojang or anything
#278 [22:11] <Victoria> it just shows examples
#279 [22:12] <CubeTheThird> Victoria, if it has been tampered, below all that you'd see things like sessionserver.mojang.com and authserver.mojang.com
#280 [22:14] <mattym> Victoria, Are you on a home internet connection? Or something different like shared/public?
#281 [22:15] <Victoria> home
#282 [22:15] <mattym> Victoria, Do you have access to a cell phone with a data connection (not Wifi)?
#283 [22:15] <Victoria> yeah
#284 [22:16] <mattym> Victoria, Use the phone, make sure the wifi is off, and try to log in at minecraft.net
#285 [22:17] <mattym> Victoria, Let us know if the log in works there or not.
#286 [22:18] <Victoria> it worked
#287 [22:18] <mattym> Victoria, Ok, so we need to rule out a lockout.
#288 [22:19] <mattym> Victoria, Only way to do this is for you to make no log in attempts for at least 1 hour from your network.
#289 [22:19] <Victoria> have you guys helped others with this problem before
#290 [22:19] <mattym> Victoria, Yes
#291 [22:19] <Victoria> well, in 5 minutes it would have been one hour lol
#292 [22:19] <Victoria> but you guys had me try to log in
#293 [22:19] <mattym> Victoria, You need to wait a full hour since the last attempt.
#294 [22:19] <Victoria> great
#295 [22:19] <mattym> Victoria, After that if it does not work, you will need to come back, and WILL need to use that tool we mentioned.
#296 [22:21] <Victoria> alrighty.
#297 [22:21] <Victoria> thanks for your help thus far
