Move an item to the top of your active downloads list

 * 1) If a download is in progress and you have multiple items in your active downloads list, select the item that you want to move to the top of the list.
 * 2) In the Download Details area of the guide, select Download Now.

Note This will pause the downloading of the current item and initiates the downloading of the selected item. If you have signed in to multiple profiles on Xbox Live and more than one profile contains items in the active downloads list, the first item in the active downloads list for the profile under which you select Download Now, will download first.

Cancel an item from the active downloads list

 * After you select an item to download, the item becomes part of your active downloads list. To cancel a single item from downloading, select Cancel from the Download Details screen that appears during a download or from the Active Downloads area.
 * You can also cancel all downloads in the Active Downloads area by pressing the X button.

Note Canceling an item will only remove the item from the active downloads list. Canceling an item does not reverse the charge that was issued against your Microsoft Points balance. After you confirm a download, the points are removed from your balance. A check mark appears next to any content that you have confirmed. This lets you download the content again in the future.
