    Whats up with my console? Xbox One


    So some strange things have been happening with my console. The strangest happened today and has finally prompted me to ask on this forum. Originally when I bought the console ( a few months ago) I signed up for onedrive, figuring I'd use it eventually.
    However, while checking out that app i had reached "Shared" and there were photos in there. Now I have never had onedrive until now and I have never shared anything, let alone what I saw... which were inappropriate pictures. Pictures which I would assume
    would get you banned if you had shared them. The photos said they were shared by "Someone". I could never remove them until I found out how by logging into my account online. It said that someone else had shared them and that i could uncheck any photos
    from several "Someones" that i no longer wanted to see ( kind of like hidding a person on facebook so you no longer see their posts). This removed the photos and I forgot about it. However today I'm watching TV, which is streamed through my xbox one. What
    happens is the strangest thing, and creepiest, to ever happen to me. All of a sudden my Xbox backs out of watching TV and into the Xbox Video app and what I see is again inappropriate, except in video form, but then soon cuts away to the Xbox Video apps home.
    At first I thought someone might have been on my xbox i know thats not the case (nobody was home and my door is locked). So what in the world is happening? Why or how did my xbox change from TV to the video app without me doing so? Why was it watching what
    it was watching? And why did it then quickly cut from it? It was as if someone was controlling my xbox from outside of my house?

    :)

  2. Whats up with my DL speed?

    @xBREACH3Rx

    They're not restricting the Xbox One from MS's side as my download on the Xbox One is 75MBPSwhile I still have a computer etc connected

    It might be restrictions from your ISP or some settings that need to be enabled like UPnP etc

    This is a very strange one, you do realise unless you've selected in your settings that anyone not on the same network as your Xbox One can control your XO as long as it's online?

    Go into your settings, click preferences and change smartglass connections to 'only from profiles signed in on this Xbox'.

    As for the whole picture sharing/video thing, I noticed something similar on my other OneDrive account. Which is the one i've hooked up to my Laptop, it instantly grabs stuff and puts it in their. It's weird. And for that I have no explanation.

    It has to be someone messing you with on an Xbox Smartglass. They probably tapped into your Wifi and are controlling your Xbox with his/her phone. Most likely a neighbor. Highly suggest doing what UrNowJUICED said and update your preferences and settings.
    Also, if you haven't already, I would suggest placing a password on your Wifi network. Not to lecture or anything, but remember, placing photos on a public website is dangerous if you're worried about privacy. I would get an external hard drive to keep
    photos safe there, or a USB drive.

    What's up with my console?

    Hello,
    basian Canadian


    Thank you for contacting Forum support!

    This usually has to do with the network most of the time so it's best to troubleshoot the network (Also try to reset the router and modem for 2-5 mins)

    On the network settings of the Xbox one, select " go offline" then turn off the console and reset the router and modem.

    If that does not resolve the issue try this!

    How to reset your console to factory defaults on Xbox One

    Please let me know if that works!

    Thank you!
