Apple TV stop during update

Hello
I have started to update our Apple TV but rapidly it has stopped! Since this time it has been blocked!

Explain "stops". Updating is in two stages. Stage one is downloading the update. Stage two is loading the update to the ATV. During the update and loading steps the ATV will blank out for up to 15-20 seconds and the screen will be blank or even state "no signal". This is normal. I don't know why Apple updates to ATV works like this since one feels that the update has quit or has been dropped out.
Just wait until the menu appears which signals the end of the update (sometimes 15 minutes). Even the menu will not respond for several minutes when it first appears.
Don't know why ATV updates act like this. This has been normal ever since ATV came out. Guess it's too hard to fix.

HT202157 My Apple TV stopped preparing update about 1/4 of the way into the update. The system says do not unplug your Apple TV while updating. I have waited 24 hours... No change. What do I do?

You can't do much else besides pull the plug. If it causes further problems you should be able to restore as below:
Get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
On the other hand you may be able to simply start the update again. If however the update continues to fail, you should try the restore routine above.

My hp support assistance wont run. It keeps stopping during updates and when deleting the temporary internet files. So it never finishes the process.. help

The failure to remove the Temporary Files could just be due to having your internet connection active during the removal process. For most folks, the amount of data in this directory is minimal. If you want / need to remove the files, you could close your browser(s), make sure your Internet music and TV connections are closed, and then try removing the files manually:
Path to Folder:
C:\Users\--YourAccountNameHere--\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files
Warning:
Do NOT remove the "Temporary Internet Folder" itself. Go "inside" the folder before removing anything.

The HP Support Assistant is great when it works -- and not so great when it won't cooperate. You can try removing the program from your computer and installing it again. That may work.

Apple Tv stops during movie several times to load. Very ANNOYING

Why does my Apple Tv stop during movie several times to load. Very ANNOYING

This will be due to the network.
What is your current connection vis speedtest (needs at least 6mbps)
Make sure DNS is set to auto (setting - general - network)
If on wifi try ethernet

Ipod / Itunes Stopping during update or restore.

Whenever I tried to update / sync my ipod it would get a certain distance in and then just freeze. The progress bar would just stop where it was and the ipod says do not disconnect. I would either have to disconnect it or shut down the computer. After a while of trying to get it to update over and over, I decided to try restoring it. It just stops. It says it is still doing something but the progress bar stops. After it stopped during the restore and i had to unplug it, every time i turn it on, it tells me it needs to be restored, but the same thing happens
I'm using a 5G 30gb ipod with a macbook pro
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Rob

first of all make sure that the battery is completely charged
toggle the hold switch for atleast 6 times.
try plugging the shuffle in different usb port
go ahead open up >>My Computer >>Control Panel >>Add/Remove Programs >> delete all previous updaters even ipod for windows
download the latest updater 2006-06-28 from apple.com

Apple tv crashed during update

My apple tv has crashed during an update. I has got stuck on step 1 of 2 preparing to update.
I may have caused this by trying to use during update.
Should i unplug and start over
Thanks

You are not supposed to use while it is downloading and applying the update. It's very likely to have caused the issue. I don't think you can just unplug and start over, though you may try.
I would suggest grabbing a micro USB cable and restoring in iTunes, which will also download the latest update

Backup stopping during update - how to email apple?

I know a lot of people have been having this problem(where the automatic backup doesn't complete when updating to 4.0), and no one really knows what the problem is. So, I decided I wanted to email Apple about the problem, but the only method of communication I can figure out is by phone, and that costs like thirty bucks. Is there a way of emailing them, or if not, could someone with a warranty and with the same problem call them and see what they say? Thanks

I´m having the same problem.
I´ve updated Itunes to 9.2 and when I´ve tried to sync my 2nd generation Itouch, it opens a window telling me that there is a problem with Mobile Device Helper and that it stop working...then tried to update the firmware to OS 4.0 and the problem remains...any one with an answer???
thanks

Apple TV stops during movie.....

Last Thursday I downloaded from iTunes the movie TRON. I was watching it using iTV when about an hour into the movie it just stopped. The movie was fully downloaded. During my troubleshooting on my computer the TV screen went to screen saver and it brought up my photos as usual.
Since Thursday I have tried everything I can think of and found on the troubleshooting page, but to no avail. Computer, iTunes and iTv are all up to date. iTv has been restored. iTV recognizes my computer for I see the name of my library but that about it. After I restored iTV I no longer see my photos on the iTV screen saver. The message I keep receiving on the TV screen goes something like this: Apple TV can't find the library. Make sure you are on the same network and turn on home sharing". I have only one network and iTV confirms the network as well as showing a strong signal strength. Home sharing is turned on in iTunes and iTV as well as photo sharing.
Any ideas? It would be appreciated....

Ok, problem solved. ATV now works as advertised.
One of the first things I did when this problem arose was check my computer settings, including my anti-virus software VIRUS BARRIER. In VB I made sure that all firewalls were down and all data entering and leaving my computer was set to "no restrictions" and nothing worked. VB is set to download updates automatically. Apparently when this issue started it updated the program during the movie play thereby doing something to stop the movie from playing and my library not to load. Yesterday I went back into VB and noticed a master ON/OFF switch that was set to ON. I turned it off and once I did that my library was able to load and I am back in business. I could swear I never saw that switch before for I have had VB for over 2 years. Guess it was just one of those things I just overlooked.

Will Verizon offer any thing to iPhone 4 users since Apple will stop releasing update and support for the device?

Apple recent stated they will no longer offer any support for the iPhone 4, no more updates, apps will stop working with the advancement of software updates. over all by the end of the year the phone will be almost completely phased out. Does Verizon have any type of plan for their current iphone 4 device users?

Verizon has nothing to do with Apple updates.
It is much like Microsoft who phased out support updates to Win 31, Windows 95,98,ME and now Windows XP.
You must deal with Apple http://www.apple.com/support
Good Luck

HT1600 Froze during update what do you do

My Apple TV froze during update, I can't turn off. What do I do?

Thanks for the reply. I have always enjoyed your posts.
I figured that I would be looking at a restore event for my ATV3 when the update appeared to have frozen.
So since I had nothing to lose I did a hard reboot on the ATV3. (off and on again)
The device restarted and as expected, the update had not been applied.
Did the update again. ( I was surprised at how long the update process took after the download.)
After the update seemed to have completed, The lone white apple icon blinked off the black screen, the TV/Flat screen via HDMI stayed black/blank. After turning the TV off and on and replugging the HDMI cables and still having a blank screen. I had no choice.
I did another hard reboot on the ATV3.
System started up with no problems and the update took hold.
So to quote Roy and Moss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nn2FB1P_Mn8

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.
