  5. What a headache. this error code would not let me sign in to my account. it would let me select my account but would not proceed to sign me in. So i removed my account from my xbox one so i could try and redownload it. it let me type my email and my password
    then hit enter and thats when i received the error code 0x80a40008 try again later. so now i cant enter my account onto the xbox. it gets even worse. so now im banging my head against the wall and pass out. i wake up to try again, i go to enter my email to
    download my account and it says you must have an internet connection to download your account, go to network settings to test your connection. well guess what! everything is connected, nat type open and running. the network details know im connected but when
    i try to enter my email the xbox is telling me something else. long story short i unplugged the power adapter from the xbox one for a couple minutes then plug everything back in. its started an 1.1G update (FYI i had my auto download update turned off-that
    should not matter but whatever) i was able to recover everything, i tunred my auto update download back on and im back up and running. can some one point me in the direction for the xbox one update preview forum section.

  7. Why is it I spend $500 on a console. Play it for every bit of 4 months, going through numerous problems with the connect already mind you. I recently, as I do routinely, updated my subscription to XBOXLIVE to pay to be able to chat with my friends and play
    online but then the next day the *** started. Yes, nothing short of ***. I notice the kinect didn't sign me on, go figure it's a worthless *** up of a device anyways. Then I go to sign in manually, (Try again later) There was a problem, and we couldn't continue.
    (0x80a40008) <----------------- What in the ***. All I wanted to do was watch the last episode of Dexter on Netflix. So I removed my profile and tried again. Oh look at this now it won't even work. I can't even download my friggin profile. Wow. So I'm paying
    month to month, so that I can get *** in the *** financially 1970's style by you Microsoft. Congratulations you even change my more then appropriate gamertag to some baby back *** like FlailingFawn21234123 WTF. So yeah this is the last *** straw with your
    *** service and even more *** consoles. FIX IT.

    Seriously, how do I fix this? Will calling support help? Probably not. I've spent nearly $1000 dollars on this thing when you include game prices and I can't use it because my name was inappropriate. This is theft. I'm locked out of my account because of
    my name. Thanks, Microsoft.
