    Hello,

    Do you have your Xbox on energy saving? If so that will keep your xbox off and not let anything download till you turn the xbox on.

    Hello,

    Those game updats are going to ask for you to update since they are the first time you played them. Now that you have played them the updates will happen for you. When ever you get a new game you will have to allways do the first update yourself.

    Thank you!

    Initial Xbox Live Set up

    Hi there,

    you can delete the 'created' profile without any problems, that won't screw up anything on how the console runs.

    If the console came with a redeemable code for that 1 month, you can use that on her account (when it is signed in).

    See this link for the how to redeem a code:
    support.xbox.com/.../redeem-prepaid-codes

    This link for how to delete a profile from the console:
