    What is the exact error you are receiving when you try to log in? If you could provide a screenshot of the error, that would be super helpful.
    Once I have that information, we can decide how to address your issue.

    Hey there! 

    Thanks for the response and screenshot link. Unfortunately we could not open it as it required a Google email to access which we do not have. If you would like to resend it again with permissions off, I'll make a ticket for us and we can chat over there. I have removed the link from this page to preserve your privacy.

    Hey there! Yeah no problem :)

    Okay perfect, I took a look. Looks like a "we cannot connect" error, here are some thoughts - 

    How many devices affected?
    What make OS version? Make/Model?
    Has it worked prior?

    I would also check to see if there are two versions installed. Multiple versions installed can also be the main culprit for this error.

    It is also worth checking all the URL's found here ( https://educommunity.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/360047118992-FAQ-IT-Admin-Guide- ) are allowlisted on any virus protection programs or proxies if you are on a school network. 

    If you are on a home network, it is possible the program itself just needs to be allowlisted on a virus protection or parental filter or something of that nature. 

    Let us know how things go!

    Hey Danny, It was working prior to me coming home from school break. It's on my sis's MacBook aswell. No, there's only one version of it which is from your official website. I'm on a home network so it could be a parental filter, I'll look. Thanks for your help, Danny!

    Heres some extra info however the might help. I tried running it when we had electricians and the wifi was out. After that it stopped working. There's no parental features or filters on this device.

    Hey there,

    Thanks for the info!

    Hmmm, you could try uninstalling any versions of Minecraft Education and reinstalling from our website again after backing up your worlds to see if that helps with the issue.
