I cant seem to login. i put my username and pass in and it tells me that i migrated my account and to use my new email and password. so i use the email and password from the new thing and it says that it isnt correct. is there a logging\authentication problem right now?
No. There is a feature that locks the user for 3 hours (guaranteed as non-brute forceable) if the user unsuccessfully tries to log in at least 3 times.
Hi I hope its ok to ask here because I'm not sure I should make a new thread. I was just trying to make a new account and buy minecraft but it wont let me. I mean it says that the accont was made (and I cant remake it with the same email anymore) and I activated it but when I try to log in (with 100% right password and email) it doesn't work it says "Error! Unknown e-mail address or password."
What do I do?
yes you should make a new thread and not hijack someone elses thread, but as you are here.....
After 3 incorrect login attempts, a lockout is placed automatically by Mojang's systems on your network to protect accounts against brute force attacks to gain access.
This lockout is automatic and cannot be overridden, it expires after 3 hours. Wait 3 hours, don't log in at all. Reset your password using https://account.mojang.com/password -- then try again.
If this doesn't work contact Mojang, no one but them can fix account issues, hence why the accounts link on this forum goes to Mojang help pages

Try using all your emails and all the passwords you've used in other games.
