    Smartglass Not Working on Windows 8 PC


    I have a Windows 8 PC and a Windows 8 Nokia Smartphone. Smartglass works pretty well from the Nokia to the Xbox One (it's not perfect, but it's still kind of neat). However, whenever I try to open the Smartglass app from my PC, I'm left with either a blank
    screen or it simply brings me back to my main Windows screen. So Smartglass isn't starting up at all. Any thoughts?

    :)

    Smartglass

    Has anyone got the Smartglass app working on a Windows Phone 8 device? It works fine on my Windows 8 PC, but that's no good seen as it's in another room. My phone picks up I'm playing FH, but when I go to the Smartglass section it shows as being unavailable.
    No idea why. Anyone know?

    Smartglass?

    Does anyone know if the Smartglass features for Halo 4 should be working yet? I've tried smartglass on my Windows 8 PC, Android tablet & phone and while it works perfectly for the extra content in Forza Horizon, nothing seems to happen when I play Halo 4,
    it just sits there telling me I'm playing but with no extra content.

    Not sure if it should be working yet or not.

    The only thing i can think of is to try connecting your PC to your router via ethernet cable to rule out wifi problems as i used to have problems with the 360 smartglass when on a certain wifi channel

    I have the same problem. Run the Smartglass App and it shows a gray screen for a minute and then a black screen, and never ends up showing the normal app. It used to work fine, but then for some reason it stopped. I tried it from 2 different accounts on
    my PC, but doesn't work on either one. Definitely not a WIFI issue as I'm connected directly to the router via ethernet cable.
