Major Nelson, get your team to fix this!! rather then puttign up quick fixes. I've had to send in my Arcade 360, and I'm using my friends at the moment. I just tried downloading the new Resident Evil 5 DLC and it won;t download at all, did what you said no go. Simply tie the DLC to gamertag ...

I was wondering why it said "Assigned to another console" even after transferring my licenses to my new jasper console. Good timing.

That's interesting.  It's good to know because I have on one occasion not recovered a profile at a friend's house because I didn't want that console to be the main one associated with the game.  Thanks for the tip!

While we're throwing out ideas related to downloads, I'd prefer that the download queue be system-wide and run in the background regardless of who's logged in.  That's one of my favorite features from the PSN store.  Currently, whenever one of my kids logs in, my downloads stop and I ...

Thank Major, great blog post - good to see posts from you that are not just updates of market content. Would be nice if we could also sort out the HDD install issue as well that a couple of posters have mentioned. HDD install is a fantastic feature and shouldn't be tied to a single console ...

Live theme previews have long been a requested feature, but at this point I'd prefer to see the dashboard and/or download speed improved.  It's painful to sift through the Marketplace when it takes so long to download or display content.  I can only imagine how much money that's ...

Thanks a lot Major, this was driving me nuts. Also of note this fixed my problem with queued Halo 3 community files as well.

I had this problem a while ago and subsequently posted the solution in the tech support forums after being on the phone 5 times to different 360 tech representatives, who kept telling me to use the license transfer tool, and of course once you've done it, you can't do it again for a little ...

@ptuco; I have two 360's in my house.. I run a Vista MCE in my basement and it is my only source of tv in the house. Xbox's are great for gaming and are excellent for MCE extenders. Sadly, this is one feature that seems to be overlooked very much. @phawx; You have to be signed in. The auto ...

Another handy tip from your friendly neighbourhood Major. Shame that you still needed to cover this when e already did so in Xbox 101 a few weeks back.
