Runeryan456So i have a account that works on my main computer, but i have a new laptop now and everytime i try to log in it says can't connect to minecraft.net, even though everything is fine, HELP ME PLEASE

The "cannot connect to Minecraft.net" error can happen because:

• An antivirus program or the firewall filtering the connection
• Your Windows username has special characters in it, eg. (!)
• Your hosts file has been tampered with
• Java is defaulting to IPv6 instead of IPv4
• There is an issue with your modem/router
• System time is incorrect, or out of sync
• Java's configuration files are out of date

The more prevalent root of the issue is of course the first one. Norton at times will block Minecraft. I would suggest disabling it temporarily, or even uninstalling it to see if the issue persists. Then we can rule out said possibility.

Unless of course, you do have exclamation marks or similar characters in your Windows username? The launcher will present itself with a black footer rather than the dirt background.

Mercer444Minecraft does not work on TOSHIBA computers.

This is very false information. Software is not limited to any manufacturer at all. They all probably have the same security software or even bloatware pre-installed that may be the cause of the issue.

Triple check if your username and password are correct

It's possible that your laptop's firewall or anti-virus is blocking minecraft.net. It happened to my boyfriend until he temporarily disabled his anti-virus/firewall.

Disabling your firewall is NOT recommended since it becomes easier for someone with malicious intentions to access your computer.

Did you placed all of your minecraft files from your main computer into disc or chip and then placed them into your new laptop? If so then you needed to download minecraft exe file again not move them from your main computer to laptop. I hope this helped .
