  1. Kids controller starts to blink after being connected to PC, it tries to turn on my xbox...


    My kid has his controller he uses on his xbox and the pc. When playing on pc things are all good and working but all of a sudden it'll start to blink and not work. I went to get something to drink one time when it did this and noticed my xbox was on for some odd reason and I haven't even used it that day. So my kids controller everytime this happens it looks like it's trying to turn on my xbox while disconnecting from the pc. He has only really used his controller a few times on my xbox. It's always on his and his pc. I want to get it to stay connected to the pc and have my xbox somehow forget his controller connection? Not sure what else to do.

    Kids controller starts to blink after being connected to PC, it tries to turn on my xbox even though it's normally connected to my kids xbox.

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community and Happy New Year.

    Hello MichaelLiberty, try the steps below.

    First turn off your Xbox One and also unplug it from the electrical outlet.

    Then remove the batteries from the controller and for 1 minute keep pressing all the buttons on the controller and moving the controller knobs.

    Once it's done, download the Xbox Accessories PC App and if you have a USB cable, connect the USB cable controller to your PC.

    Xbox Accessories

    https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/xbox-ac...

    Put the batteries in the controller and see if the App recognizes the controller and check if it has updates.

    Once updated, remove the USB cable and try to connect it via Bluetooth, after connecting via Bluetooth you can reconnect your console to the electrical outlet.

    Solid Red Light on power button after attempt to update 1/25/15.

    I removed the HDD, turned it on and still had no connection to the TV. My HMDI sensor could not find a connection. I placed the HDD back inside and still the same issue. Thinking it had to do something with the video settings needing to be reset, I tried
    to use the video/audio reset method.

    Now, I don't seem like I can get the controller to connect with the Xbox as it continues to blink even after multiple attempts to Sync. I found a help-video on Youtube stating to turn off the TV before turning the Xbox on and went 1 step further and turned
    off WiFi in the home, turned cell phone off to no avail...

    There are times where I had the blue (working fine) light on my xbox for over an hour but no screen connection and the controller lights blinking. Then, when I would start turning off and turning it on I would go back to getting the single red light after
    a few moments.

    Again, this seemed to start after I updated my Xbox last week. I do remember it turning back on after the update was downloaded, seeing the first miliseconds of the Xbox Logo on screen then going blank or losing the connection as if the video/ audio were
    reset on its own.

    Xbox one controller not connecting to Xbox Wireless Adapter for win10

    Summary: I fixed it by plugging USB cable into a controller and pc, win 10 recognized it, system restart was required and after that controller was working wirelessly also.

    Longer description: I installed fresh windows 10, downloaded and installed all win updates, then I tried all these steps and at the end controller started working.

    1) plugged wireless adapter into USB windows 10 recognized it but Xbox one controller won't connect (keep on blinking)

    2) plugged wireless adapter into another USB port but Xbox one controller won't connect (keep on blinking)

    3) plugged wireless adapter into another USB port started task manager removed Xbox one adapter, windows found it again but still noting (gamepad keep on blinking)

    4) plugged wireless adapter into another USB port (front) started task manager removed Xbox one adapter and Xbox drivers, windows found it again installed it but still noting (gamepad keep on blinking)

    5) FINALLY, I fixed it by plugging USB cable into a controller and pc, win 10 recognized it, system restart was required and after that controller was working wirelessly also.

    Xbox Series X Controller PC Connection Issues

    I can't update the controller because it doesn't show up in the xbox accessories app. I also don't think the controller is damaged because I tried my Xbox One controller which was also working fine before my windows updated, and now it's having the exact same issue. When connected to my PC it just blinks for a while before turning off.
