  1. My Xbox One S controller buttons do not work. What could be the problem?


    I just turned on the console and the buttons stopped working out of nowhere. The controller remains connected and I can only use the Xbox button. I’ve updated the console, the controller, got the batteries off and connected the controller via USB to the console but nothing seems to be working. I also re synced the controller but haven’t got a solution yet.

    :)

    Hello!

    Hope you are well. I'll be glad to assist you.

    I'm sorry you're experiencing these issues.

    Please try the following steps:

    1. Press and hold the Power button on the front of your Xbox until the console turns off.

    2. Unplug the power cord from the back of your Xbox.

    3. Wait a minute, and then plug the power cord back in.

    4. Press the Power button on your Xbox to turn it back on.

    5. Pair your controller and console again. If possible, please also try another USB cable.

    I hope the information has been clear, I will be attentive to any questions you may have.

    Best Regards.

    Controller gets stuck

    What type of problem are you having with your controller?

    MY CONTROLLER WON’T CONNECT TO MY CONSOLE OR PC -> it doesn't apply. the controller does connect to my pc

    I CAN’T UPDATE MY CONTROLLER -> it doesn't apply. Xbox Accessories says it is up to date

    MY CONTROLLER DOESN’T FUNCTION CORRECTLY -> somehow it doesn't. let's take this option

    MY CONTROLLER WON’T POWER ON -> it doesn't apply. the controller does power on

    SOME OR ALL OF THE BUTTONS ON MY CONTROLLER DON’T WORK AT ALL -> it doesn't apply. All buttons do work correctly

    SOME OF THE BUTTONS ON MY CONTROLLER DON’T WORK AS EXPECTED -> it doesn't apply. All buttons do work as expected.

    so:

    How do I get my Xbox 360 discs to work on my Xbox one?

    I'm using an Xbox one s if that's what you're wondering, I have nothing plugged into it besides my controller, I don't know how to verify if it's up to date, I held my Xbox power button for 10 seconds, those were the only things that I saw I could do, I didn't know I could do anything else

    Xbox one controller stopped responding

    Its an Xbox One, not an Xbox One S. Correct, when I would try it with my controller and another controller, they would both turn on and seemed to be connected, but my pushing buttons didn't do anything. And no, I have not tried it on another console or
    device. I will try that and see if it works! 😊
