My eldest son wants to play minecraft with his younger brother. The younger brother is on an iPad running minecraft PE.
To do this I downloaded and installed minecraft Win10 version on my Win10 laptop. Unfortunately this is would only run minecraft single player and it was buggy and crashed. We could not get multiplayer to work.
So I dug out my old Win7 desktop PC. I'm guessing I'll have to install the Java version on this PC. Can you please help me with these two questions:
(1) If I set up minecraft Java on my Win7 PC, will we be able to multi-play with the iPad iOS PE? We will be using LAN.
(2) Will I have to re purchase minecraft or can I de register the Win10 installation and install the Java version on my Win7 computer?
OK. Well if I upgrade to Win10, can I uninstall minecraft from my laptop and re install it on my PC? Or will Mojang require me to re purchase the game?
