XBOX ONE UPDATE PREVIEW - NOT ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH FRIENDS, PLEASE HELP!!

T3hj3st3r · Feb 27, 2014

Hello,

My Gamertag is: . I am unable to communicate with anyone on my friends list in a party after receiving the Xbox One Update Preview- I have spoken to about 4-5 people in regards to this and have not gotten anywhere =\. I just want to
be able to communicate with my friends once again. If a moderator views this and is able to help me, please do! If I am unable to receive any help as the update cannot be UN-DONE or the problem cannot be rectified, I would only ask for ONE thing...

PLEASE send an invite to the Update Preview to my brother (Gamertag: Thesigher) So that we may communicate together....

Honestly, This is the most aggrivating thing i've ever been put through in regards to Xbox Live..and it should not be like this...PLEASE HELP.

:)

How do you invite people to also preview updates for Xbox One?

I registered to preview early updates for the xbox one and they accepted me but I want one friend to play with me also because you can only communicate threw messages if you have the early update and someone is on a lower version then you so I was wondering
how can you invite your friends to preview the updates also?

By installing the "preview" update, you are unable to communicate with friends that do not participate in the "preview" update. This was also explained to you (in plain text), before you accepted to install this update.

"As a result of the changes to the Party App in this initial update, party chat, party matchmaking, and party invites will NOT be compatible between Xbox One consoles that are previewing this update and those that are not. Once this one-week preview of the
update is completed and the update is released to the general public, party features should work normally between all Xbox One players. Non-party multiplayer and chat are not affected by this, meaning you will still be able matchmake, chat, and play with all
Xbox Live players regardless of update status inside of game titles. If you have friends that you use the Party App with that have not been invited to preview Xbox One updates, you can invite them by posting in the Invite a Friend to Preview Xbox One Updates
Forum."

Group not found...maybe Microsoft should make sure these things work before trapping us in a beta where we can't even test the key features.!

Hey there Having Children.

If a friend has invited you you'll need to wait, as not all invites are guaranteed acceptance into the Preview Program. Keep an eye out on your Xbox Live messages for communication if you are accepted into the Xbox One Update Preview. If you have any other
Xbox support question please create a new thread so we can best help out

Hey I've been a part of the preview program for months now and recently I had the option to send my friends invites to the program also and recently they have got updates that I have still yet to get. Like the party has the colors of the home screen tiles
and you can see what the friends are doing under there name in a snapped party. I would like to see if I get updated to the current ios so please can someone help

Mister Maka

Hey there Asteroid42O.

If you aren't currently part of the Xbox One Update Preview then you wouldn't have access to the Preview Forums. If you left and your friend re-invited you, you'll need to wait to be added back to the Xbox One Update Preview. Definitely keep an eye out on
your Xbox Live messages for communication.

Hey there, Danocow! If you would like to opt out, simply launch the Registration app and opt out through there. In the future, please post up a new thread for troubleshooting so that we can help you out individually. If you are still unable to opt out, please
post up a new thread so that one of our community members can walk you through it! Thanks for being part of the program! Sorry to see you go.

Mister Maka

Hi Sephzzz!

Being invited by a friend to the preview doesn't guarantee access I'm afraid. You'll need to keep out on your Xbox Live messages for communication if your are accepted into the Xbox One Update Preview. Please keep in mind that acceptance into the program
has slowed, so it may be quite some time if your are chosen.

Cheers!
