    controller disconnects when kinect is turned on

    o my controller and kinect and everything has been fine.

    Until i changed the batteries for the first time - rechargable AA batteries that i used for my 360 before.

    The controller works fine if my kinect is off, but soon as i have the kinect on the controller disconnects, i turn it back on, flashes a few times. turns off again.

    Ive tried everything on the xbox support pages, turning my xbox off, synching the controller, the batteries are fully charged. my kinect wasnt recognising me when signing in but it is now since ive done that. but still soon as i turn my kinect on the controller
    disconnects?

    any ideas? thanks

    Kinect turns on but xbox has been off

    Hi

    If the console is set to instant on mode then consoles Kinect camera is always listening for the "Hey Cortana" command and I it thinks it has heard this command then the Xbox logo on the front of the camera will light up briefly to indicate it has heard
    the command.

    Kinect keeps turning off by itself

    Mine turned off and on repeatedly. I tried everything. I hard reset, I factory defaulted, I made sure it was plugged into wall outlet instead of surge protector. I connected my kinect to another xbox one and tested it and it never shut off. I noticed in
    the settings that the "Turn off gestures when watching video" was unchecked. I hooked it back to my xbox and unchecked the "Turn off gestures" box, and it has never turned off since. It has been a week and it has not turned off, not reset once. And before
    it did it alot, everyday. Hope this helps.
    My Kinect has been turning off since I bought the xbox one 3 years ago first kinect I had to unplug whole system 2nd kinect I bought I had to unplug kinect from the back. Would turn on and off and stay off till I unplugged it and was sluggish with my voice
    commands. When verizon fios upgraded me from a generation 2 router to a generation 3 router a few weeks ago both kinects work very well and never turns off or miss a voice command. It has something to do with the router.

    Kinect keeps turning off by itself

    its worse for me the kinect keeps turning on and off like every few seconds or every minute and it wont listen to any of my commands such as "xbox on" or "xbox go to netflix". when i say the commands it just tells me that the kinect is unpluged on top right
    corner even though the kinect is on but then it turns off. i cant even find the problem on the support page and im scared that my kinect may be broken.
