  1. Xbox One Controller Won't Connect


    I have tried updating my driver, reinstalling my driver, connecting it to Bluetooth, using a wired connect... but none of these have worked. My device shows the controller has connected, but it doesn't work on games that are compatible with gamepads (Halo
    C3 SPv3 in my case (which had no problem with controllers in the past)). I have also checked the games settings for controller usage and I have allowed and even tried disallowing the game to use the controller. My controller just won't work on PC. What am
    I doing wrong or how else can I fix this?

    :)

    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 S Controller

    Same here. It will connect but it won't stay connected for very long. I have an Xbox One X but I'm sure the controller is the same.

    Xbox One controller/Compatibility.

    Nope, the Xbox 360 controllers won't work with the Xbox One. The Xbox 360 controllers use IR to connect to the console, whilst the Xbox One uses WiFi direct (way faster than IR).

    Xbox Controller Sync & Powering off from after pressing sync button five times....

    My sync button turns off my Xbox one X and won't connect any controllers.

    When controllers do connect they disconnect and flash.

    Had this problem since beginning of February.
