Shape Up Stuck on Profile Screen

Ok so I successfully downloaded my profile, and crackdown is still stuck on the loading screen with the shape with the diamond in the middle of the screen just spinning, but the game will not start.

I booted up my console. It took 2-5 minutes to finally get passed the "loading screen". It automatically logged me into my profile, but I did NOT connect to XBL (my internet connection is fine-- obviously, haha).

Nonetheless, I went to my profile and disabled auto-sign in. I turned off my console and turned it back on.

Got past the splash screen, the "loading screen" was up for a half second and took me to the "choose your profile" screen.

I selected my profile. In green font above my profile it said "signing in" and was stuck in this status for 2 minutes. Finally a white screen opened up that said showed my gamertag and said "signing in" and it was stuck in this status for 2 minutes, and
then it said that my console couldn't connect to XBL.

I decided to go clear my cache and then boot off my console. I was going to reset my router (even though I don't think this is the case, but maybe it is).

Router is now reset. Got to the profile screen. Selected my profile. It signed in immediately (okay maybe it was my router). I booted up Mass Effect 3 (it's installed on the hard drive). It queued me to download an update.

All is well for now. Can you please give me insight into what the issue is/was? If I change my profile back to automatically signing in, will this problem re-occur? Thanks.

Hello there, unfortunately after three times of flawless booting up the issue has returned.

After spending a very long time on the grey screen with the white circle spinning, I am now stuck at the profile selection screen trying to sign into Xbox Live.

Any advice is very welcome!

No that wouldn't be normal. What do you see on your screen? Is it stuck at the start up or is it stuck mid update?

Do you mean that you are stuck on the uploading or initial configuration screens of the Xbox? I just purchased the Elite bundle and cannot go past those screens at the moment. Or have you configured your Xbox and you are stuck on the boot up screen of
a game?
