What to try

There are several reasons why you may receive this error message. Here’s a list of possible solutions to try.

  • Make sure that you’re playing content from the device that has your account settings, and not from a different computer.
  • Make sure that your device is connected to the Internet, and that you signed in to your app(s).
  • Make sure that the Xbox LIVE service is up and running. Go to Xbox Support, and look for a status report at the top of the page.
  • If you have reoccurring sign-in problems, make sure that the location of your computer matches the country/region of your account and then restart your app. To learn more, see: You're signing in with an account that's different from your Windows region.
  • If you recently put your computer or device in a suspended or hibernation mode, try closing and then reopening your app.
  • Check for updated versions of the app(s) you’re using. To do this, open the app from the Start screen and then look for an update notice in the upper-right-hand corner of the screen.
  • If this error occurred while buying, downloading, or playing content:
    1. Close and then reopen the app.
    2. Make sure that you have network connectivity, or an Internet connection.
