Xbox one elite can't download initial update

I don't think the other people who replied understand what you are asking because I'm having the same problem. My brand new Xbox One S is going to sleep/turning off DURING the straight out the box initial set up update. Not AFTER it's fully downloaded the
update and it auto restarts. And when I turn the Xbox one back on, the initial set up update starts over. You can't get to the settings yet to set it to download even when the console is off/sleep because it can't get past the initial set up update. Nobody
has time to sit in front of the TV for hours, wiggling the controller sticks every 5 mins to keep the controller/Console from going to sleep partially through the Initial setup update and having to start over. It's been 3 days and I haven't been able to play
one single game yet on my new Xbox One S. Is there any way to prevent this?

Try updating it with a wired connection. If the problem persists call Xbox support. If they can't help you return it and get another one.

I'm having the same issue. My xbox one won't download the initial update during set up

Does this xbox live issue have anything to do with why I can't download the initial setup updates? I just purchased a brand new xbox one for Christmas and now the thing will not download the updates. The internet connection is good and I have restarted
several times. I am a new xbox user and this issue is starting to make me question my choice to go with the xbox over the PS4.

Same issue. Elite Series 2 on PC, pressing the A Button brings up the Game Bar (a commonly reported problem). The solution is apparently to update the firmware from 4.7.xxxx to whatever the current one is. But I can't do that because the Xbox Accessories app is outdated and won't even register that there is an update to download.
