Manage your iOS data better than iTunes Deals. Here’s how to stream Xbox One games to your Mac using OneCast. The Xbox One’s game streaming feature is one of the few awesome advantages it.

Hi community!

Rarely am I beaten by software. But the lack of discussion on this topic has defeated me.

I'm trying to stream the Xbox one to my late 2015 MacBook Pro with Retina display, and I'm failing to do so. Every time the connection is established, a second after and the whole Xbox app that I'm running in the latest version on windows 10 through the latest version of boot camp, crashes and closes down.

I've visited a few forums here and there, with the general theme of the issue being related to the AMD graphics card.

I'm wondering if anyone else with the similar mac and Xbox has had any similar issues.

P.S. I've ran the stream test (those of you with xboxs will know what I mean) with all test receiving a successful tick mark. I've also noticed the app crashes when I'm trying to play a captured video uploaded by the live community.

Any help much appreciated.

Connect your wireless controller to play supported games from Apple Arcade or the App Store, navigate your Apple TV, and more.

Get started

• Starting with iOS 13, iPadOS 13, tvOS 13, and macOS Catalina, Apple devices and computers support pairing with and using Xbox and PlayStation wireless game controllers.
• If you need to update the firmware on your controller, check with your game controller manufacturer.
• Check that you’re in range of your device and there isn’t interference in the area.

See which wireless controllers are supported

• Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth (Model 1708)
• PlayStation DUALSHOCK®4 Wireless Controller
• MFi (Made for iOS) Bluetooth controllers, like the SteelSeries Nimbus, Horipad Ultimate, and more may be supported.

Pair or unpair a controller with your iOS device

1. Begin with your controller turned off. Then to put your controller in pairing mode:
   • With an Xbox Wireless Controller, press the Xbox button to turn on the controller. Then press and hold the Connect button for a few seconds.
   • With a DUALSHOCK®4 Wireless Controller, press and hold the PS and Share buttons at the same time until the light bar begins to flash.
2. On your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, tap Settings.
3. Select Bluetooth and check that it's turned on.
   • To pair, find the name of your controller under Other Devices. Tap the name to connect.
   • To unpair, tap Information next to the name of the device, then tap Forget This Device.

If your controller won't connect or doesn't work as expected

• Unpair it, then pair it again. If you still can't pair or connect, get help pairing your Bluetooth accessory to your iOS device.
• If your DUALSHOCK®4 Wireless Controller pairs but then you see a Connection Unsuccessful notification, press the PS button in the middle of the controller and wait for it to connect.
• Make sure that you're not trying to connect too many Bluetooth accessories at once. Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD support up to two controllers at once, and other Bluetooth limits vary by device.
• Some controller functions aren't supported when paired with an Apple device, including the controller's audio jack. Contact Apple Support for more details.
