Some Xbox One owners who have tried to sign into Xbox Live have not been able to do so this morning. Microsoft has confirmed that the online service for the game console is experiencing some issues at the moment.
According to a message on the Xbox Live status page:
"We're aware that some of you are unable to sign in to Xbox Live, but we'd like to assure you that we're doing all that we can to straighten things out. Your patience is appreciated during this process, Xbox members! Feel free to check back in half an hour for an update."
Naturally, we will update this post when things are back to normal. In the meantime, how are you coping with the outage?
Update: Microsoft now says the sign in problems for Xbox One owners have been fixed. Enjoy!

Some Xbox One owners can't currently sign into Xbox Live [Update: It's fixed]
My 360 has only been able to log in sporadically over the last three days :/
These never seem to surprise me as they always seem to coincide with COD or another big online multiplayer... Especially COD as the hacks try to crack and find work arounds
Its back online now :)
Is this related to why none of my family can relibably log into their XBL accounts? Same problem on Xbox 360, Windows 8.x and Windows Phone 7.x/8.x. (Yeah, we still have a 7.x holdout.) Been that way for over a week.
I couldn't bag a quick Destiny mission prior to work this morning so needless to say I was pretty devastated.
Just started working for me again.
Damn it.... Thought my ethernet cable had collapsed on me... Thank god ive seen this.
Cant log in to Xbox music website.
Well stop gaming in the morning and go to work. :)
Stop being ignorant and don't make false assumptions
360>1
cos(360) = 1
I don't know why this article singled out Xbox One, but it wasn't mentioned anywhere that I saw as only an Xbox One problem. I use Xbox Music at work so it affected me for sure. It was a sign in issue with Xbox Live
On My Lumia Xbox live games were not working today ..Now it's alright...
I blame CoD. :)
Bing log in is down for me.
Who logs in to Bing?!!!
People who like to get points for their searches??
having trouble sign in, so ill play minecraft.. i guess.
I guess everyone complaining about that "always online" thing may not have been completely crazy.
It was never "always online"... It was "online for a fraction of a second within 24 hours from the last time you were online".
I just bought COD AW today and got home and put in to install and it cant, because of a lack of a update off LIVE. Not happy.

Yeah right, and get ebola? No thank you.
Tell the people who can't sign in to get a job.
Count Me In!!! (Germany)
http://music.xbox.com/ is down as well (for me at least). Haven't been able to load it for about half an hour now.
Yep, music down for me too.

Not working for me.
As I wait for it to be delievered, lets hope it doesn't stay that way.
I'm not coping very well in general considering my Xbox 360 died this past weekend. It was 6 years old though.
I had almost finished Fable Anniversary.
I wasn't able to sign in around 8:45 am cst
Yep, been having that issue all morning.
No issues enjoying cod:aw atm
Lol, I'm at work so I can't log in right now anyways.
I am at work and havne't tried,

Working for me!!
Its been out since 9:00 AM EST
My friend had this problem a while back. Back then, the fix was unplugging the machine and plugging it back in.
