    Xbox keyboard and controller


    How do you switch from using the Turret keyboard to the xbox controller? Should both work at the same time and you just switch back and forth? My son was using the keyboard and then the controller would not pair. What are we doing wrong?

    :)

    How could or would a game like Age of Empires work on console?

    the original Xbox only came with a controller. the Xbox 360 only came with a controller. the Xbox One comes with a controller. you can't buy an Xbox One with a Keyboard and Mouse.
    in my opinion if they don't sell them with a Keyboard and Mouse they shouldn't have support for Keyboard and Mouse. if you want to use
    Keyboard and Mouse you should play on a PC and not on a console.

    Keyboard not working on Xbox

    There seems to be a disconnect between the actual feedback of the controller and the keyboard. Try a few suggestions as others have stated. Try turning it on with the xbox controller or by manually pressing the button. This should help.Could be the brand
    of the keyboard. What type of keyboard is it . Is it wireless etc...

    Can keyboard and mouse play as player 2? (and player one use controller instead)

    I want to play minecraft split screen but the world is made on player 1’s account and player two can’t play on keyboard and mouse or else the keyboard will control player.

    TL;DR

    THE KEYBOARD CONTROLS THE WRONG ACCOUNT.
    Works only for player 1 to be keyboard and mouse

    1. turn on Xbox directly, make sure your controller isn't on

    2. sign into Xbox with your keyboard and go to a minecraft world

    3. turn on the controller and sign into a different account

    I think this will work, ill see an ill reply to this one.

    Wireless USB Keyboard with xbox one

    It is recommended to use Microsoft Wired Keyboard, as wireless adapter for keyboard will interfere with Xbox One's internal wireless adapter for Controllers or WiFi, and Xbox One does not have drivers for keyboard wireless dongle.

    I want to be able to switch from keyboard to controller as I wish on my Xbox however when I plug my keyboard in and then try to switch to the controller it doesn’t work and both inputs stop

    Hello R Sxbox,

    Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community.

    We totally understand that you want to use your controller while playing.

    Here are some troubleshooting steps that might help you resolve the issue:

    1. Check if the keyboard is properly connected to your Xbox controller. If it’s not, try reconnecting it and see if it works.
    2. Reset your Xbox controller by holding the Xbox button on the controller and selecting “Restart”. After restarting the controller, check if the Xbox properly detects the keyboard.
    3. Uninstall and reinstall the Xbox Keyboard device in the Device Manager. To uninstall the Xbox Keyboard device, right-click on it in the Device Manager and select “Uninstall Device”. After uninstalling it, restart your Xbox and check if the keyboard works. If it doesn’t, reinstall the Xbox Keyboard device.

    Hope I helped! Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
