    Settings malfunction


    I'm having this problem with the XB1 settings in the top left corner by my GT Icon. NORMALLY, you would click the settings and it would bring you to a page where you can select from a list of things like Preferences, Kinect, Sign-in, etc. Well for me,
    when I click settings, it goes straight to the Preferences page and won't let me go to any of the other settings pages that I need to go to. If i say "Xbox go to settings," it just goes straight to the preferences page again and there's no way to navigate
    back to the main settings page with all the different tabs. It is really annoying and has been glitching like that ever since I got it.

    Is there a fix for this or what do I have to do?

    Thanks.

    :)

    Malfunctions would bum any consumer out, otherwise they wouldn't be called malfunctions. Settings malfunction ;)

    Also, please don't bump incredibly old threads...

    Settings malfunction

    It could be something which happens to some apps when they haven't been shut down and are still running in conjunction with other games/apps so returns you to the screen you were last on. Try the following.

    Go to your settings as you describe above

    It'll probably do as you mention and show you the Preferences page

    Press the Xbox button in the middle of your controller to go back to dashboard

    You should see the Preferences in the main window, if it isn't already, highlight it

    Press the Menu button (three lines) on your controller

    Select QUIT

    It should change to the cog icon that represents the Settings app

    Wait a few seconds, select the settings again

    It should load up the main settings page where you see all the options.

    We are nothing more than controlled robots to Epic, programming us to play dates set on a calender which is hardly an event, system malfunction!!

    [/quote] Major Malfunction? Lol.

    But yeah, it's a bit of a let down, not even as 'fun' as I was expecting it to be.

    disc tray error..

    Sounds like your disc drive is malfunctioning. I suggest contacting Xbox Support, you may have to set up a repair.

    Ethernet issues

    It would seem that the NIC malfunctioned and needs to be replaced. Calling 1-800-4MY-XBOX you can help verify this and set up a repair if need be.
