My HDMI to DisplayPort adapter isn't working!

Hello, i'm trying to plug my xbox hdmi cable into an adapter to link to my pc monitor display port. I'm receiving no signal after linking them up. Can anyone help?

Most adapters only work in one direction. You probably got a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter instead of an HDMI to DisplayPort adapter.
