    Not able to space or backspace or even type some letters on Xbox


    So I play Xbox and when I was on yesterday it was just fine with typing every letter and spacing, but when I got on today the I was not able to be typed unless it was capitalized, and also with some others letters I found the same problem, I also cannot space or backspace on my controller or keyboard that is connected to my Xbox, what do I do to fix this?

    :)

    I actually just found the answer if you have this problem, restart your Xbox

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this GJason365

    May I know if you already tried power cycling your console?

    1. Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

    2. Unplug the console's power cable from the console and from the power outlet. Wait 5 minutes.

    Important: Be sure to wait at least 5 minutes. This step resets the power supply.

    3. Plug the console power cable back in.

    4. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    Usually that does the trick

    xbox one chat pad

    I would love to see a chat pad for the XB1 controller and I do think they'll do one however first they need to fix the slight delay when hitting the backspace, space, or moving the cursor around when you're typing a message, try hitting "X" for backspace
    and then quickly typing a letter, the backspace won't register till after the new letter does, happens the same with "Y" for space and the bumpers for moving the cursor.

    Can’t search for my Xbox Live Account

    You would need to type in your gamertag EXACTLY as you set it up for it to show up on the xbox

    if any of the letters are capitalized or spaces are in it then you need to put those in.

    My child’s gamertag does not appear when searching the “Find someone” option

    You should always be able to see the gamertag.

    Exact spelling, spaces and caps are also important.
    I am positive it was typed exact. I am not sure that does matter. On console, as I type letters close matches appear.

    Oddly, when I was just in iOS Minecraft, the add friend search
    does find the gamertag....Just doesn’t seem to work on the console and xbox web site.
