    A button input not working from 3 different controllers.


    Hi.

    The A button input from 3 separate Xbox One controllers is not working. The A button seems to be working as when I click on a tile to start a game, the tile blinks or flashes like I have pressed the A button but the game won't load.

    The same thing happens on other tiles too, like the settings tile: the tile will blink when I press the A button but it won't load the tile.

    One controller is 2 days old and it is having the same problem.

    I have tried re-syncing the controller and a hard reset (turn off), but this didn't work.

    Any ideas?

    (I don't have a mini-USB cable to update the controllers: where can I get one?)

    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Wireless controllers will not sync to console

    Thank you so much! After reading those last few comments, I realized that I had only tried to sync the controllers while disconnected from the television, or while the television was on a different input. Changing the input to the Xbox allowed the controllers
    to connect! Also, I had already tried removing the 250gb hard drive in my 4gb console with no luck.

    Xbox One Controllers FREEZE (NOT Disconnect)

    I have an inconsistent but not infrequent problem with my controllers freezing/console won't take input from controllers. The packed-in controller and a Titanfall controller. One with headset adapter, one without. Both have the latest controller firmware
    update. An example: controller input doesn't navigate home screen, launch games or apps, invoke menus, whatever. Home button tap will sometimes go home as it should, but not further input recognized. Holding home button brings up turn console off or turn
    controller off dialog box as it should, but can't select either option, or the close option.

    Interestingly enough, this also happens with the Xbox One infrared media remote. Same deal. Console won't take input from the remote, or the only input it will take is home button taps or holds.

    Doesn't seem to freeze during gameplay. Only during app or home UI interaction. For example, controller won't freeze playing Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, won't freeze in the game's pause screen or options screens, but open friends or chat during a gameplay
    session, controller input will freeze in the app.

    A button input not working from 3 different controllers.

    I have the same issue,but only with controllers that I updated to firmware 1.1.2228.0 (and this issue only exists on xbox dashboard or sub-navigation (ie settings, notifications). Once within games or apps it works fine.

    My one controller in firmware 1.1.279.0 works fine.

    Same here.

    My issue started happening yesterday.

    In some games if I can actually get them to load, it's like the A button is pressed down all the time.

    I updated all of my 3 controllers to the latest firmware 1.1.2228.0 this morning and it's still happening. Very annoying.

    I know it's no consolation, but at least others have the same issues so something is awry. Keep me updated with any news and fixes yeah?

    Elite Controller 2 paddles not registering in app

    I think I'm having the same issue, but since I just got my Elite 2 controller today I can't be sure. Could you check something for me?

    Go into Control Panel -> Devices and Printers, then find your elite controller (listed as "Xbox Wireless Controller" I think) right click and select "Game Controller Settings". From there you should see a readout of all of your controller inputs. Mine lists 16 total buttons, but the paddle buttons will not activate. If I remap the paddles to other buttons within the XBox Accessories app then I can emulate a different button with the paddles, for instance X lights up the "3" button, and so does the paddle... but the paddle button never illuminates.

    The paddles seem to produce NO UNIQUE INPUT OF THEIR OWN, they can only emulate other buttons, even though the computer knows the paddle buttons exist.

    From all the searching I've done, what I've gathered is that the "Default" profile (which you can activate by holding the profile selector for a few seconds) used to allow the paddles to work independently, but something within the last few months broke that. For instance Steam's Big Picture controller configuration options used to allow for remapping the paddles, but now they do not.

    TLDR: Microsoft seems to have recently broke something in and update to the Xbox Elite controller, which is now preventing the paddle buttons from sending their unique button input while using the default profile. They can now only emulate another controller button, or send no input at all.

    Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 - A button opens Xbox Game Bar

    I have the same issue on two controllers. All the buttons are not working properly on PC. Some buttons function as others (even in default mode where I have no alternate controls set up) and for me my triggers work the right thumbstick. I made the terrible decision to update an older Elite 2 controller that was working properly and now that one is screwed up, too. I checked with some gamepad testers and games and the coding for the buttons before the update were very different from after. ie axis 3 on trigger when I believe it was originally right thumbstick and B0 is used by A instead of the Xbox button.

    I feel like it shouldn't be too difficult to program the inputs back to what they were. I'm unsure on why they would change them to begin with.

    xBox One Blu Ray Software Does not Up Convert DVDs

    Check the inputs on your TV, my Hannspree TV required me to plug my HDMI into input 3 to get the best picture. My Xbox 360 and Ps3 work best on the first input, it's weird but some TVs have different settings per input and you just need to find the input
    that displays 1080p whenever you hit the "info" button on your remote.
