    No power to the USB on XBox One S to connect wireless keyboard?


    Hi All, so my son bought a bluetooth keyboard, and we have a bluetooth adapter it connects to, and all works fine on a PC, however when put the adapter into the XBox there seems to be no power to it, no light on the adapter!

    As I say, works fine on PC

    What am i missing?

    :)

    Usb bluetooth keyboard support

    USB keyboards have always worked, but prior to the February update they had to be plugged in while the Xbox One was powered off (not Instant On, but completely off).

    Bluetooth keyboards will not work. The Xbox One doesn't contain a Bluetooth radio. A wireless keyboard with its own wireless USB dongle should work. I've used a couple different Logitech wireless keyboards that were already paired to their associated Logitech
    Unifying USB receiver.

    If you still would want to use a keyboard on the console, you will need a USB wired keyboard
    You can still use a wireless keyboard, just not a Bluetooth Keyboard.

    Keyboards and mice that have their own wireless dongle (Logitech for example) should work just fine.

    Hi,Steve! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

    This is becausethe console is not compatible with the bluetooth adapter. If you still would want to use a keyboard on the console, you will need a USB wired keyboard

    That's because BT keyboards don't work. Not all wireless keyboards are Bluetooth.

    Logitech wiress keyboards for example work on Xbox, they use their own direct wireless protocol, this isn't Bluetooth.

    These keyboards are already paired to the receiver dongle. That's why they just work, BT ones don't.
