“I just bought a new Xbox One controller. How do I connect it to the console?”
How to sync your Xbox One controller wirelessly:
1. Turn on the Xbox One.
2. Make sure you got some AA batteries in the controller.
3. Press and hold the Xbox button from the controller to turn it on. The controller will pulse to indicate it’s not synced. It the controller has already been synced the Xbox button will be lit solid.
4. Head over to the console and press and release the connect button.
5. Now grab the controller and press and release the connect button. The Xbox button will flash a few times while scanning, it will turn a solid light when it finds and connects to the Xbox One.
Your controller should now be synced with the Xbox One. Rinse and repeat if you have more controllers.
