3. Go to the My Xbox channel
4. Select your profile (second selection) and press A
5. Select “Account Management”

I’ve heard reports of people having to try re-downloading it a couple of times, so if you still get an error, please wait a few minutes and try again. Also, try deleting the original download, and THEN re-downloading it. As long as you entered the code and initiated the original download, deleting this won’t cause any re-download issues.
Thanks for your patience, guys.
