Xbox One Freezing Up

Tonytg2986 · Dec 29, 2014

I just got onto my Xbox One, I signed in and then it froze. None of the buttons worked on the controller and the screen wouldn't move. I looked if other people had this problem, and they did, so I pushed the power button for ten seconds to turn it off.
I let it sit for five minuets, turned it on and it seemed to work. But about five minuets in it froze again. So i am just wondering it there is any other things i can try. Thanks!

We have lost your Tv Signal

Well I just managed to set this up again using the new Xbox One I received

Took a while for the Xbox to show a picture and the Sky box was freezing up

After 30 min it's finally done

Xbox One X Freezing up

About a week ago my Xbox One X starting acting up, it will occasionally freeze up and not allow me to do anything at all, not even go to the home menu. After I’m forced to turn it off and back on it may work for a bit, but then it’s bavk to the same problem.
Any ideas what may be causing this? Or how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

Consider if the Xbox One is trying to sync things to the xbox live server.

I too had this same experience and have linked it to two possible situations.

1. Xbox Live being down and now my game saves, and video are all trying to sync to the cloud at once.

2. When I play disc games this happens and I have to make sure to close the game before remove the disc (close = using the menu button to quit the game) I still have to perform a hard reset once or twice a week but this is what I've come up with over the
last year.

Hello nfgrockerdude,

"so am i screwed", I don't think so, but it's clearly something is going on. I also have an older Xbox One and a new One S, and I have had no problems running my account on either one of them. But, I did set my One S to "my
home Xbox". So, may I start by suggesting you tried deleting and "re-add" your profile to the old Xbox. Yes, I know it may sound
a little silly, but it's best to begin with the easy stuff first. In deed, it might be worth double checking to make sure this isn't some kind of strange "Networking" issue.
You did the now famous "How to restart or power cycle your Xbox One console", but do you ever get a "startup
error" code? If not, I would then recommend doing "How to reset your console to factory defaults on Xbox One". The next step is a little bit
more involved, and if you are getting an Exxx error code you may have already heard of something called "Offline System Update (OSU)". If after doing all
that, you continue to have problems, then things maybe more serious. At which point you will have to decide if you want to "Contact" Xbox Support and pay for out of warranty repairs or
simply buy another new Xbox One S.

Good luck and good gaming,

SA

Hi there, yes it is for the Xbox One. It freezes on the start up screen ...

I have not had a lot of problems with my Xbox One. There has been times where YouTube would freeze up and I wouldn't be able to re-load it. But otherwise it's been a smooth process.

If your Xbox One is constantly freezing up, it may be a hardware issue.

wouldnt 80 players at one time freeze the xbox or blow it up or something?
