Couldn’t sign into account for my series X for days
I tried signing into my Microsoft account on my series x for days but nothing would work.I reset the consoles, logged into my account through the QR code, logged in through my Xbox app on my phone, and tried every troubleshooting tip I found on the internet. Nothing would work, I would just be in an endless loop where it would look like it was going to load into account and then prompt me to sign in again.
For context I also have my pc linked up to that same Microsoft account and I had no trouble playing game pass games on my pc. Last night I downloaded a new game to play on pc game pass and when I tried to play the game it keep saying I didn’t have internet access to play the game. I could play games I downloaded weeks ago but I couldn’t play any games downloaded that night.
What fixed that issue and the issue with me logging into my series x was going to installed apps on my pc, then clicking Xbox live and then clicking repair. Fixed everything, no issues with either my pc or series x with signing in and playing games on either one.
