Try set setting a connection between the Xbox and the controller by pressing the small button on the front of the controller (between the LB and RB bumpers) and the small button on the front of the Xbox ( right next to the memory unit B slot.)

Your control settings have likely somehow become inverted. While in-game, go to the pause menu and select options. Make sure that Look Inversion is DISABLED.

Depends on the game, but sounds like its set to inverted controls. Go into the game's controller options to change the set up.

That is a game setting normally called invert look or look inversion. Go through your game menu and check that setting.

Try buying a different controller, or, if you want to take it into your own hands, clean the right thumb stick yourself with a slightly damp washcloth.

Yes you can.
You need to go into the system settings and find the file.

It can be but you need to take apart the controller. For this your gonna need to purchase the xbox tool.

Microsoft provides a guide that will guide you thru the process of resyncing.http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906947

This sounds like you have an issue with your Xbox and not the controllers. You should send it back to Microsoft if you can. Try connecting those controllers to somebody else's Xbox first to confirm.

Guys, you really need to calm down... I have the same problem like you.

I'll tell you step by step why the Xbox 360 Wireless Controller won't work.

1. The controller will automatically disconnect during the gameplay, and the charging kit won't charge.

Solution: This is true what I'm saying now... Where you guys brought your wireless controllers in the stores, there was a Frequently Asked Questions book inside the kit. It told you about the importance of the charging of your wireless controller, because Microsoft informed that it's VERY important to empty your battery before charging it, because the charging kit will no longer charge your battery, and the same thing happened to me. So, if you have any questions of your wireless controller, then contact me at my gamertag, NussKarte. I'll give you new information how to fix your wireless controller.

In the game menu, some games won't let you though.........

Unplug the xbox from the wall for 30Min, and that will reset the processors, inside the xbox, and now it will recognize the controller.

The mechanism that controls the stick breaks after a while. You can either buy a new controller, or replace the stick mechanism.

If you have experience soldering, and a soldering iron its alot cheaper. The tool to open the controller is under 2$ on amazon. If you dont have a soldering iron you can find them on google products for 25-30$. The replacement part for under 4$ on sparkfun. So you could fix it for under 36$, but it will take a bit of time as well. The directions can be found on instructables.com.

There is a small circular button on the console to the right of the memory card slots below the disc tray. If you push this button the lights around the power light will spin. There is also a small circular button on the top of the controller to the left of the power cord plug in in between the bumper buttons. When pushed when the controller is on it will do the same. Push the consoles button then the controllers. They should synchronise.

the sodder is touching other things it happends commonly with modded controlers and it might break after a wail (mine did same thing then in 1 week it broke so gl )

Check the contacts on the remote, sometimes the copper doesn't make a tight connection

This sometimes happens to me, the problem is that the piece that holds the battery has become loose. I personally have swap it with a different controller and it seems to work for me. Good Luck!!

Same procedures for an xbox
The AV Multi Out plug that is included with the Wii will allow you to connect the console to most TVs or VRCs. First, look at the back of your television AND your VCR and see if you have colored holes label "Input". Though most TVs have them, almost all VCRs do as well. If you are unable to find a set of yellow, red, and white AV inputs on the back of your TV, try looking on the sides, top, and bottom of the TV. Look for any hidden panels or doors as well. Connecting to a Television Audio/Video (AV) inputs are typically located on the back of the TV, but occassionally are on the sides, top, or bottom. Look for inputs marked Audio and Video IN. Do NOT connect your system to anything marked OUT. Don't see these inputs on your TV? Click here. Insert the AV Multi Out plug on the Wii AV Cable into the AV Multi Out connector on the back of the console Insert the DC plug on the Wii AC Adapter cord into the DC Input connector on the back of the Wii console. Insert the AC plug into a 120V AC wall outlet CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot and insert fully into the outlet. Plug the transformer into the wall outlet. The Sensor Bar can be placed either above or below your TV screen. Decide which option best fits you and click the image below for additional set up help, including mounting the Sensor Bar and proper alignment.
then try
Lets focus on the external portion of the TV set first (95 percent of all TV problems are related to things EXTERNAL To the tv itself) Check the physical CONNECTION of all cables by removing each wire bare or RCA and reinstalling it (Each power cable as well), once you have removed one cable, check it for fraying, and if it is already bare, splice a new fresh connection for it. 5. Check to make sure there are NO OTHER uneeded radios, system nearby. these systems, when powered on, will cause electromagnetic interference and prevent more than just severe tv interference SURGE PROTECTOR Surge protectors account for more than 75 percent of electric faults to stereo equipment. Lets start with your AC Wall outlet. It is standard in america that 220 Volts from out of these outlets. This implies that each device will be using 220 Volts (From within that grid zone). If anything including an alarm clock is plugged into any AC outlet socket in the vicinity of the stereo equipment/TV, it will cause electric outage, and prevent electronics from even turning on! Your TV needs dedicated electric power. If your TV is located in the living room then unplug everything else in the living room. Lets plug the TV set into a Dedicated socket. Check all light switches to ensure that power is on for that outlet. Check the TV cable for Fraying both on the ac wall end and where it plugs into the TV. Check all GFCI outlets to ensure that all red reset buttons are pushed in, check the circuit breakers for proper connection and they are turned on. Now, lets try the TV set without it connected to any cable services, vcr, dvd, stereo system, etc. Please respond if we have found a solution.

you need to take the controller apart and look for cold(bad) soldering on the battery leads.
