How to Connect an Xbox One Controller to a Mac

Best Answer

First, check that your Xbox One controller is Bluetooth-enabled (it should be if it's the newer version). Open the Bluetooth settings on your Mac, press and hold the Sync button on the controller until the Xbox logo starts flashing, then select the controller in the Bluetooth device list on your Mac.

I’ve done this a bunch of times. Just hold down the sync button on the controller until it flashes. On your Mac, go to Bluetooth settings and pair it. Done and done!

For a wired connection, just grab a micro-USB cable, plug it into your controller and your Mac. Bam! Instant connection.

Make sure your controller has Bluetooth. Hold the sync button until it blinks, then pair it in Mac’s Bluetooth settings. Easy peasy!
