    Console will not sync with control


    I'm no idiot. So if you post an idiotic solution I will come down on you like a sumo wrestler on one of those poor starving kids you see in info-mercials on tv .

    My power went out and after it came back on I turned my xbox back on to find out that it's rings will not turn on and no matter which port I stick my controller in it won't connect to the xbox and vice versa.

    Before i I send my xbox to the masterminds over at Microsoft I want to hear creative solutions...

    :)

    How to Sync a Wireless Controller

    The following guide will help you connect any extra controllers purchased to your console. Please note the controller that came with your Xbox One is already synced. Conveniently there are now three different ways to sync a controller, which are:

    • Using the console’s connect button
    • Using Kinect
    • Using a USB to micro-USB cable.

    Method One: Connect Button​

    Let’s start with the first and most important step, install batteries into the controller. Next, turn on the controller by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the controller.

    If the controller is not synced then you will see the light on the Xbox button will pulsate, if it is already synced then it will display a solid light.

    Next press the sync button on your console; it is located on the left side of the console, right next to the disc drive.

    Immediately afterwards press the sync button on the controller. It is a small round button on the top of the controller, near the mini usb port.

    Once the controller syncs with the console the light on the controller will flash a few times before switching to a solid state.


    Method Two: Kinect ​


    First lets make sure the console and controller are both powered on.

    Press the sync button on the top of the controller and wait for the light on the controller to pulse. Aim the controller towards the Kinect and make sure the LEDs on the controller ARE FLASHING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE KINECT.

    Once the Xbox light on the controller stops pulsating and goes solid, your controller has successfully been synced with your console.


    Method Three: USB Cable​

    Using a micro usb connection or the play & charge kit, connect the controller to the console. This will automatically sync the controller (note the console must be powered on first.). This will also turn your wirelesses controller into a wired controller, meaning no battery would be necessary.

  3. Problemas com sincronização do Xbox One

    Good morning, I'm having trouble synchronizing with my Xbox One. It does not sync with the xbox control, but when I close the control to the point it almost touches the console it syncs. I've even bought a new control, but the problem continues. Does the
    Xbox One Wireless Adapter work on the console as a way to solve the problem?

    Can someone help me re sync my controllers ?

    Sync the Controller:
    To sync a wireless controller with your Xbox, follow these steps:

    Press the Xbox button on the controller to turn it on.
    Press and hold the small sync button on the front of the Xbox Series X console (located near the USB port).
    While holding the sync button on the console, press and hold the sync button on the controller (located on the top near the Xbox button).
    Release both sync buttons when the controller's Xbox button starts flashing. The controller should now be synced with the console.

    turn on console

    Hey there Ashford! Is your controller wireless? If so, your controller may not be synced properly with the console anymore. Try turning the console on with the physical button, then try syncing your controller by pressing the sync button on the console and
    controller. Once they sync up again, turn your console off and try turning it on with the controller. Let me know the result of this, thanks!

    Controller Problems

    Have you tried syncing the controller to the console? Hold the sync button on the front of the controller and the sync button on the console (on the left side just before the usb) until the light on the controller syncs.

    If that doesn't work then try heading over to Settings>System and update the controller to see if that helps.

    Xbox controller won’t stay on longer then 3-5 seconds

    While the controller is flashing, press the sync button on both the controller and console to re-sync the connection. Try this while the controller is wired to the console with a USB cord.
