Activities with friends

Just once, but if I recall you have to do all activities requested by each friend with said friend.

Hi there! Welcome to the Xbox community! I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with your friends list on your console. I have two quick solutions to try that may help. First, and this is my go to option for most issues that I've experienced with my
console, but I recommend performing a hard reset on your Xbox. While the system is powered on, hold down the power button on the front of the unit until it shuts off (takes roughly ten seconds to power down.) Next, unplug the power brick for thirty seconds,
then reconnect the power supply. Now, restart your Xbox One by turning it on via the front power button, but please note the reset will cause a slightly longer than usual start-up. Once on, test to see if this has helped the issue with seeing friends online.
I can testify that performing a hard reset has helped me fix various issues such as my Kinect not responding to voice commands, games not loading, etc. You can also try refreshing your friends list. While you're in the friends menu, using your controller,
hold down both the left and right triggers, then tap the 'Y' button once. This can be done on the home screen as well, and will refresh what ever page/item you are viewing. I wish you the best of luck, and hope this helps. Please reply with an update letting
me know the outcome.

Follow up... deleting friends that I previously made on the Xbox 360, within the Xbox 360 friends menu, removed them permanently from my friends list. Unfortunately, they still show up as followers on the Xbox One. I'm not sure if they can see my activity.

Turns out my ethernet port is disfunctional. Thanks anyways.

Hey there,

We will be locking this older thread due to it being revived by a new post. If the issue is
on going, we recommend creating a new thread
detailing the issue at hand and any troubleshooting steps (if any) you’ve tried so far. We will be more than happy to answer any questions.

Thank you!
