    Unknown Xbox Controller Sync


    This morning I play a bit of Advanced Warfare on my Xbox 360 and half way through another xbox controller turns on non that was in my house but then it starts to flash up the xbox home menu, continuing to do that while my xbox is on then I un-plug it after
    it turns off wait 5 mins turn it on and then the controller connects and keeps flashing up the menu button. What is wrong?

    :)

    How to Sync a Wireless Controller

    The following guide will help you connect any extra controllers purchased to your console. Please note the controller that came with your Xbox One is already synced. Conveniently there are now three different ways to sync a controller, which are:

    • Using the console’s connect button
    • Using Kinect
    • Using a USB to micro-USB cable.

    Method One: Connect Button​

    Let’s start with the first and most important step, install batteries into the controller. Next, turn on the controller by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the controller.

    If the controller is not synced then you will see the light on the Xbox button will pulsate, if it is already synced then it will display a solid light.

    Next press the sync button on your console; it is located on the left side of the console, right next to the disc drive.

    Immediately afterwards press the sync button on the controller. It is a small round button on the top of the controller, near the mini usb port.

    Once the controller syncs with the console the light on the controller will flash a few times before switching to a solid state.


    Method Two: Kinect ​


    First lets make sure the console and controller are both powered on.

    Press the sync button on the top of the controller and wait for the light on the controller to pulse. Aim the controller towards the Kinect and make sure the LEDs on the controller ARE FLASHING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE KINECT.

    Once the Xbox light on the controller stops pulsating and goes solid, your controller has successfully been synced with your console.


    Method Three: USB Cable​

    Using a micro usb connection or the play & charge kit, connect the controller to the console. This will automatically sync the controller (note the console must be powered on first.). This will also turn your wirelesses controller into a wired controller, meaning no battery would be necessary.

  3. My controller works fine at home but will not connect at GF house

    You have to push the sync button on the controller (Next to LB bumper) and the sync button on the front of the Xbox 360 at the same time for the controller to sync properly.

    Can someone help me re sync my controllers ?

    Sync the Controller:
    To sync a wireless controller with your Xbox, follow these steps:

    Press the Xbox button on the controller to turn it on.
    Press and hold the small sync button on the front of the Xbox Series X console (located near the USB port).
    While holding the sync button on the console, press and hold the sync button on the controller (located on the top near the Xbox button).
    Release both sync buttons when the controller's Xbox button starts flashing. The controller should now be synced with the console.

    I can't connect my second controller.

    You have to sync your second controller, via the Xbox One's sync button on the left, and the controller's sync button on the top.

    Old Xbox 360 controller not working on slim

    The old controller work with the Xbox 360 slim. Have you been following these steps to sync your controller?:

    To sync them up, power on the Xbox and the controller. Then push the sync button on the Xbox (small black button next to the USB ports on the front), then push the sync button on the controller (location varies depending on the type of controller). When
    you push the sync button the green light will spin in a circle (on both the Xbox and the controller). If the light doesn’t spin in a circle then it isn’t in sync mode and you might have a problem with the controller.

    I did this with my own Xbox slim and my old controllers so I know it is possible.



    Here is a youtube video of someone showing it work/how to do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWGdw_oi0Xc



    Hope it works! Happy gaming!
