    Friends not showing up online.


    I've been having this issue for about a year or so now. I've tried to get Xbox Support to help with no success. Basically I can't see a hand handful of my friends when they are online. Not on my Xbox OR on my account in the "Friends" section, not even using
    the Xbox app on my phone. My account is set to online and non of my friends are set to "Appear Offline." I can't invite anyone to an active game (because I can't see them online, nor will my Xbox let me even though they are online), but friends can invite
    me (friends can see that I am online).

    I don't think this an issue with they way my Xbox is set up because I can't see friends are online both on Xbox or on xbox.com in the "Friends" section. I think has something to do with my account.

    :)

    Hey there gamers,

    We had a service outage last night which may have been the culprit of your issues.

    If you are still experiencing connection issues, please create a new thread detailing your issues and any error codes you see and any troubleshooting steps you've tried.

    Happy gaming!

    The same thing is happening to me as well. 2 of my personal friends cannot see me online, nor can they see eachother, but my other xbox friends are online too.

    Yeah, it just started with me today. Friends go off and on every few seconds but with no notification popping up saying that "SOSO" is online. I really hope they can fix this bug.

    No official answers to this yet then? It seems odd to me that for alot of people it sempt to happen more or less at the same time....I haven't done the verification process thing but it is still happening for me....

    Same issue. Notification when i log in says I have friends online...which they are, but the appear offline in mt friends list and in games. I can only join a game when they invite me because according to my xbox they are offline! I have checked all my settings,
    everything is right....as there are a few of us that this has happened to around about the same time, i'm guessing it's a MS issue??
