Having problems signing into Xbox Live? You are not alone

If you're having trouble signing into your Xbox Live account today, you're not alone. According to the Xbox Live Service Status page, Microsoft is currently experiencing issues with the Xbox Live Core Services, knocking out the ability to sign in.

Microsoft's Xbox Live Status page says:

"Hey Xbox members, are you having trouble purchasing or managing your subscriptions for Xbox Live? Are you also having an issue with signing into Xbox Live? We are aware of these issues and are working to get it fixed ASAP! Thank you for being patient while we work. We'll post another update when more information becomes available."

In addition, some folks are also having issues with other Xbox Live services, even if they are signed in:

"Hey Xbox members, are you having trouble with game invites and receiving your toast notifications? Are you running into issues purchasing certain content? Additionally, are you having an issue playing games and media you've purchased? We are aware of these issues and are working hard to get it fixed ASAP! Thank you for being patient while we work. We'll post another update when more information becomes available."

The problems began a few hours ago. You can check up on the Xbox Live Status page for any and all updates.
