Xbox One Cant Download Games
And if your Xbox One games won't install then you can't PLAY Xbox One games and now you're looking at a $500 Netflix machine. Fortunately, there seems to be a fairly simple solution if your Xbox One games won't install. There are a ton of people all trying to download the same updates from servers right now so when you put a disc in the. Gaming Xbox One users can now buy and download games remotely. The requested feature is one of several enhancements in the Xbox One's August update, now rolling out for all users.
Five years into the life cycle of the Xbox One, storage space has become a valuable commodity. The base model’s 500GB drive doesn’t seem quite so spacious when your “Ready to Install” list is packed with AAA games that can take up more than 50GB, and almost double that if you’re downloading 4K-compatible games on an Xbox One X. We’ll tell you how to delete games on an Xbox One so you have more room for all your new titles.
Unless you’ve invested in an external drive to increase your console’s storage capacity, you’ve probably experienced the feeling that comes when you’re forced to delete one of your games to make room for another. If not, the first time can be a harrowing — and confusing — experience. To help you out, we assembled this handy guide on how to delete and re-install your content. It won’t make picking which games to eradicate from your drive any easier, but it will tell you which buttons to press to do so.
Step 1
From the Xbox One home screen, press the Xbox button to bring up the dashboard, then select the “My Games & Apps” tile.
Step 2
Highlight the tile of the game you would like to remove from your hard drive and press the Menu button on your controller. (That’s the Start button, for most players.)
Step 3
Select “Manage Game” from the pop-up menu that appears.
Step 4
The next screen is divided into two parts. On the left, you will see each piece of content related to the game in question, listed under “Installed” or “Ready to install.” From the left side of the screen, you can also manage any saved data that exists for the selected game.
On the right, you’ll see some details about the game, including its file size and a link to the game’s page in the Xbox Store. You can choose to move the data if you have another storage device connected, copy it, or uninstall it entirely. Choose “Uninstall all,” and the game will be removed from your hard drive.
Reinstalling deleted games
If you want to re-install a deleted game, head back to the “My Games & Apps” screen. With a recent update, the location of your “Ready to Install” tab has changed slightly. Rather than be located on the left side with the other menu options, it is now located within the “Games” tab. Select this option, hit right on the directional pad to be pulled into the Games list, and then hit RB to switch to the Ready to Install page. Select the game you wish to install, and you’ll then see a progress counter in the bottom-left of the screen, with your current download speed as well as how much you have left.
On the left side of the screen, you’ll also now see a “Games With Gold” tab, which will display any games you’ve received through Xbox Live Gold that weren’t already installed.
You can also re-install games from the “Manage game” screen. To do so, select “Ready to Install” on the left. Afterward, install each piece of content individually or install all content for the specified game at once via the “Install all” option. Keep in mind that there’s no re-installing save data once it’s been deleted, however. Once removed, that data is lost forever unless you have connected to the internet prior to deleting the data, in which case it will be reinstalled from the cloud when you choose to reinstall or re-download the game.

Exactly what it says: The game (Gears of War or N+ or any 360 game) does not recognize that I am signed in and asked me to sign in to play; I go to sign in, and the only option is 'Download Profile.' I click that and a message saying I need to troubleshoot my internet pops up. I have spoken with Xbox Support, I have posted on the preview forums, I have spoken with Microsoft Chat Support. I have also power cycled, deleted and re-downloaded my profile, deleted my local 360 saves and power cycled afterwards, set up my old 360, updated it fully to current software, set up cloud saves, launched Gears of War on my 360 and signed in perfectly fine, then tried again on my One to no avail.

tl;dr: I have tried practically every solution imaginable, but nothing has fixed this insane error. Any new suggestion is appreciated.
