    Guide Button


    When I press the guide button (the middle xbox button) it's supposed to bring up the side menu so I can go home, to the friends page etc. but when I press it it just makes my screen darker and not pull up the menu. The only way I am able to get to the home
    screen is turn off my Xbox

    Can you help?

    :)

    How do you create non-Live profiles on the Xbox One?

    thats for 360 in the guide button menu. we are talking about xbox one. where nothing makes sense and there is no guide button.

    Xbox guide button

    Hey guys folk girls people,

    For some reason i cant use my guide button anymore. (The one tops on the controller to quickly go to dash) it doesnt work atall. Bought a new controller. No succes. Xbox updated no succes. Xbox app. No succes. Even tried to connect my controller to the back
    of the xbox no succes. And also controller update. No succes. Is it a system error? Cause i dont know anymore.

    Try power cycling the console by holding down the power button for 10 seconds.

    Restart the console to see if it fixed the problem after.

    guide buttons not working

    Sorry to hear it. I had that once a while back but a factory reset solved the issue. There is an option to keep installed games and apps so you won't need to worry about redownloading if you choose to give this a try.

    Have you tried doing a hard reset on the console? Hold the power button on the console for 10 seconds or until the power shuts down completely. Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes. Plug the power cord back in and restart the
    console. Once it is back up and operational test for results. Let us know. Good Luck!

    Guide button and start button not working.

    Actually, that's a standard wired Xbox 360 controller. They have a breakaway design. It sounds like you're missing the other end of it.
