You have to be signed into an Xbox live account to update any Xbox games.
If you don't feel like creating a gold account, you can just create a silver (free) account on your xbox.
This will allow you to recieve all the updates your heart desires.

Twister Mania start up issues

Make sure to run the Kinect setup and calibration in the Xbox 360 Dash. Move all the way to the right and select kinect settings. Run the setup and follow the instructions there. Make sure to have a Kinect setup card handy. (comes with games.) This should help with any calibration issues. If that doesn't work, try signing in with a different account, or doing an xbox live sign in test.

My kinect is saying i need an update from xboxlive I dont have xboxlive

If it isn't already then connect your Xbox to the internet through an ethernet cable or wireless adapter, and sign up for Xbox live by going to my Xbox. You don't have to pay, but you won't be able to play online without paying, but updates should still be free. If you have a windows live account you can use that to get onto Xbox live by recovering your Gamertag, which you can do by pushing the guide button on your controller.

I recently bought the kinect and it worked fine at first. However ive come to play it tonight but its asking for a system update. I dont have xbox live, is there another way to get this sorted?

it is possible to get the updated dashboard without connecting to xbox live, you need to have the KINECT sensor, attach it with all components and insert KINECT ADVENTURES(which is the update), wait for the process to complete... abbra cadabbra i own 1 modded offline non-banned 360 and 1 stock online 360 both with new dashboard update

My xbox 360 will play games but my kinect has a red light and says it must have a update before i can play how do i get a update will that give me a green light

I got this problem last night. you have to be connected to live, and it should automatically ask you if you want to update. say yes, or you'll be signed out of live and you can't use the kinect. That will fix the problem.

My xbox is not letting the new update download

The update for kinect launch is screwing with things for some reason. I fixed mine by going into System Settings, Network settings, then running a test on xbox live. Initiating the test logs your profile out then runs a network test. The test completed with no problems and then asked me if I wanted to update again. Without logging back into my profile I clicked OK and the update ran without a hitch. I think the solution lies in the fact that my profile was logged out and from what I have seen, the only way to connect to xbox live without a profile being logged in is with a network test. Once you connect to xbox live it senses that you don't have the update and asks you again, this time without a profile logged in and you are able to do it.
