    Xbox Controller Won't Connect


    I am apart of the Xbox Insiders Program and my Xbox One controller won't connect after a recent update. The sync button on the controller does not work allowing it to connect wirelessly to the console itself. I could only get it connected by USB cable but
    now that has stopped working too. Can some one please help and before anyone says hard reset I have done that multiple times with no results. Thank you.

    :)

    Xbox 360 controller syncing issues

    I have 0 controllers connected to my Xbox because I can't connect any. It isn't just my one controller that won't connect, none of my 4 controllers will.

    Xbox "support"

    It didn't work, but connecting the controller to the xbox with a cable does. If I don't use a cable then the xbox won't maintain a connection with the controller. Hopefully an update will fix this issue.

    No Xbox display

    I also forgot to add that it won't connect to any other devices. My kinect won't turn on, my controller can't connect to the Xbox and I can't connect via Smart glass

    I've tried it too, it has to be a problem with the xbox system, not the controller. I cant get anyone on the phone to help me.
