How do I connect my Keyboard and Mouse up to my xbox 360 and xbox one?

CooledWhip · Jul 19, 2014

Hey guys I am mostly a PC gamer who converted FROM an xbox 360 gamer because I like the feel of keyboards and mouse better than controllers. How can I hook up my keyboard and mouse to my xbox 360? I have an Alienware Tactx keyboard and mouse, but I have
a spare alienware keyboard and mouse that I could use for the xbox. I really doubt the USB port int he xbox was the way to go, because I dragged my mouse and it wouldn't move around the hub and stuff.

Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

So I bought a Logitech MK200 it came with a wireless mouse and keyboard. I put the USB receiver in the Xbox the keyboard worked great, the mouse didn't work at all. I tried many wireless mouses on my Xbox but none worked. How do I fix this problem.

You don't, consoles use a controller....

The mouse will never work.

The keyboard is helpful for text.

Console games are NOT programmed to use a Keyboard/ mouse.

Ya sure about that? In an old post of mine I had someone suggest Keyboard and Mouse.

I was also thinking about using a XIM, I need to do more research if it is bannable or not,

My son was playing fortnite on xbox and somehow changed setting to keyboard/mouse. We did not connect a mouse or keyboard (not do we own one) and cant figure out how to put game back to controller.

Here's how you can do it on Xbox One:

Connect your keyboard and mouse to your Xbox One console. You can connect them directly to the console's USB ports or use a USB hub if you need more ports.

Once your keyboard and mouse are connected, start up Rainbow Six Siege on your Xbox One.

In the game's main menu, navigate to the Options menu.

From the Options menu, select the Controls tab.

From the Controls tab, select the Controller Type option.

Change the Controller Type to Mouse and Keyboard.

Customize your keyboard and mouse settings to your liking.

the original Xbox only came with a controller. the Xbox 360 only came with a controller. the Xbox One comes with a controller. you can't buy an Xbox One with a Keyboard and Mouse.
in my opinion if they don't sell them with a Keyboard and Mouse they shouldn't have support for Keyboard and Mouse. if you want to use
Keyboard and Mouse you should play on a PC and not on a console.

To do that, simply connect your mouse and load up a
keyboard and mouse friendly game, and away you go.

There are some games that do use a keyboard/mouse combination if the player chooses to use it. https://www.windowscentral.com/list-xbox-one-mouse-and-keyboard-games

And here's some information on how to set up the Keyboard/Mouse on the console https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/Hardware-Network/accessories/mouse-keyboard
