    Controllers (inc. RB4 equip.) disconnect, Xbox One doesn't power off


    I've had Xbox One for two years now (almost to the day). Around March 2017, my wireless controllers started disconnecting, then reconnecting after a few minutes or less. This includes the Rock Band guitars and drums. Gameplay became difficult. Sometimes
    it would be days before it happened, other times it would happen several times a day, day after day for a week or more. I tried new batteries. Most times the wired controller works (once in a while it doesn't), but that doesn't help me for RB4. I tried
    re-synching the controllers. I tried updating the controllers. I tried a hard power-off/re-boot. I tried moving closer. I tried disconnecting other equipment nearby (although it was the same stuff that had been there for months, but I tried). Last night,
    the controllers would not connect at all AND the XBox will not power off unless I unplug it!

    Any suggestions? Is there something else I can do? Any idea WHY it is doing this? Please help.

    :)

    Have to power cycle Xbox to reconnect controllers every few days

    About a month ago I got an Xbox One with two controllers. I've found that every few days, my controllers won't connect again until I do a full power cycle of my Xbox One. I'll go to turn on the Xbox with a controller, and the controller flashes until it
    shuts off again. I then fully power off the Xbox by holding the power button, power it back on, and the controller can connect again.

    The disconnect has never happened while I'm playing (though I'm not ruling out that it could). I don't believe this has anything to do with interference since it doesn't matter how close the controller is to the Xbox; it will not reconnect until the power
    cycle. Any suggestions?

    [PC] Xbox One Controller Won't Turn Off

    Hi Basx3,

    The controller will need to be disconnected from the provided USB cable to allow the controller to turn off. Since you are on the PC, the controller does not have the same power menu the Xbox One does to manually shut off the controller.

    The USB cable is supplying power to the controller from your computer.

    Can't connect to my wireless network from my xbox one.

    Hello!

    I would recommend trying the following troubleshooting steps, and see if it works after each one.

    1. Hard Reset the Xbox

    2. Reboot all of your Networking Equipment

    3. Power off & Disconnect your Xbox from power for 30 seconds, plug back in & power back on

    4. Change the Wireless password to a new one & try it

    Modern warfare 2019 only giving me the option for warzone and not campaign

    I understand. Try checking the game page if you can't download it there. You can also try downloading from other devices such as the Xbox mobile app or the computer

    If it still doesn't work, you may be clearing the cache, this procedure usually solves some problems.

    You can try clearing the Cache to solve this problem: With the Xbox One turned on, press the “Xbox” button on the controller;
    In the menu, navigate to the “Profile & system” tab (the one with your avatar picture);
    Enter “Settings”, “General”, “Power and startup mode”, “Complete shutdown”;
    Select the “Turn off” option and confirm;
    Wait until the Xbox One and controller lights go out; Disconnect the power cable from the back of the Xbox One (in detail, the port on the Xbox One X);
    Wait 30 seconds to 2 minutes;
    Reconnect the power cable to the Xbox One and turn it on.
    To clear the Xbox One's cache, it's not enough to just unplug the power cord from the socket, it's necessary to completely disconnect it from the back of the console. This prevents any residual input of energy into the equipment, and once the supply is cut off, the cache memory is completely cleared.

    Without the cache file, Xbox One will need to download new data and load information from main memory to create a new bank, but overall, console performance will be better and loading speed will increase. Finally, you will have more space available on the internal disk for games and apps.

    monitor or tv

    You can set the Xbox One to turn the TV on or off with the Xbox One when it powers up or powers down. It does this with the Kinects IR blaster. Works for AV equipment too. It works for the majority of compatible TV and AV equipment.
