Friends appearing forever offline even though they are online

a few on my friends list always appear offline even though they are online. I know them in real life and have seen their settings in person. They also dont appear offline to everyone. How do I fix this? We have removed each other and readded, done hard reboots
yet nothing works.please advise.

Problem with a friend's online status!

I also starting noticing this on my account a few days ago. Several people on my friends list are now showing as "offline" even if they are on, not hiding offline or have been on recently. I signed onto another live profile on my same xbox and I was appearing
offline to the other account even though all my settings are open and i was not appearing offline.

As suggested I cleared my systems cache and also signed out/back in and it's not fixed.

 

Not showing I'm online

i have been having the same problem, but my friend says that its me not appearing online, even though i checked my privacy settings, and everything is fine. i also made sure that i am appearing as online, but i still appear offline to him, and we cannot
connect ingame. any suggestions or help?

 

Hey Sir Rastan!

Have you done the good old trick of removing your profile off your console and adding it back? Could be something to try first. Make sure all your game saves are saving to the cloud as backup before you try this!

Hey An Xbox Dude!

Just curious other options I have power cycled every piece of equipment dping with the Xbox one.

Cleared the cache on the system

Removed my profile and redownloaded

Logged into other xbl accounts on my consol.

Is there anything more I can do?

 

This is most likely a privacy setting issue. If you go into Xbox settings under Privacy and Online Safety there are alot of settings. One of those is who can see if you are online. That is probably the issue.
