    I come in to this thread every few hours or so to see if I need to add anyone and the good lad (I presume lad) smcbeath (who added me to the preview) has always already done you all.

    I feel redundant :)

    Yeah, he can't get any gaming done because of all the beta requests.

    I did a couple only to refresh DS and see that he'd beaten me to it so gave up. Maybe I should carry on as back-up like he suggests.

    You should get a message on your xbox with a redeem code, key that into console, then the update should arrive within 24 hours.

    My hols started on Friday and I busted my back sunday, nothing to do with my insanity workouts on x1:D. Sleep pattern is a bitty messed up just now, god it is sore. My mate should be dropping of my x1 wheel and seat tonight, I hope he likes doing some lifting:D

    There is no redeem code anymore I think the process has changed, all I got was a message off Xbox Live with an option to launch the app that allows you to join the program. Hope this helps :)

    Yeah I'm still waiting patiently - hopefully I'll hear something by the end of the week. Otherwise I might be pleading for another invite! :)

    So it might background download? Might be in with your apps if this has happened?

    Is anyone else still able/willing to send invites out? If so, please could I receive one?

    When you get a message from Xbox Live the same message contains an option which says "launch app" that allows you to enter the preview programme. It says the following:

    "Your invite for the Xbox Preview program is waiting! To register your consoles (s), open this message on your Xbox One, install the Xbox Preview Dashboard by selecting "Launch app", and then "Get it FREE" from the app details page.

    I followed the instructions and had to wait until the early hours for it to be registered and enrolled and that was about it :)

    Edit: Not sure why I got mine so quick but all my games are digital and I must of spent well over £400 in the Store in the last 3 months or so. Maybe they wanted more digital people?

    I went through the list and did another request for 12 people and two other mates, if MS continue to ignore me I will request every day:D

    @ ukp

    Thank you! :) I presume it will take them a little while to process so in the meantime I will try and get my kinect to work properly... it's having difficultly understanding my perfectly spoken queen's english lol (ok maybe not)[/QUOTE]

    If you are still having issues with Kinect you can recalibrate it.

    Dashboard,
    settings,
    Kinect,
    Kinect does not hear me,
    before you start the audio check, blast up your tv/soundbar/surround sound system to make Kinect more sensitive to the noise around your room.
    When finished remember to turn down your volume:D

    You might be wishing for death at some point.

    There was a time when I would have laughed in Insanity's face with contempt. But I'm so riddled with niggles and unfixable problems (knees and shoulders are on the way out) these days. I just need someone to utter those magic words... "We can rebuild him."

    Feel like I'm derailng my own thread but...

    I bit the bullet and did it. Jesus. H. Christ. I was doing OK for the first 10 mins, after 20 minutes I was feeling it, after 30 minutes I was almost sobbing and by the end I was pretty much convulsing on the floor!
