ATV stuck in "downloading update"

It had been a while since I'd used my ATV...I checked for update and of course 1.1 was available, so I started downloading (I'm hooked up via Ethernet, and I don't stream from my computer).
It's indicated that it has been "Downloading Update" for over a half hour now...how long should this be taking?

My first d/l took considerabally longer than 1/2 an hour (I have 5) but this was likely due to everyone else doing the same thing in the very begining. Once I had allowed an initial cooling down period after the update was announced the other tv's d/l'd the update in varying times of a couple of minutes to about 20 minutes.
However I expect most have now d/l'd the update and that 1/2 an hour indicates a problem of some kind.
Ah well, it's good to be wrong sometimes, glad to see it's working for you.

Ellipsis 7 tablet is stuck on downloading updates

My tablet is currently at 4.2.2. I clicked on software update and it says it is downloading updates. This has been going on for 4 hours and nothing is happening. It keeps saying that it is downloading updates. Then I get a message that says "FOTA isn't responding. Do you want to close it?" I say yes and it just continues to run. How do I get this stupid thing to stop or update?

Welcome to the world of the bizarre. Yesterday (Sun) at 1645 hrs. I powered on my Ellipsis 7 (I power it off when it is not going to be in use for a while). Lo and behold, the download begins processing and completes successfully! I have no idea what caused it to suddenly work. I do have a couple theories. First, the download was unable to connect to the required computer so it simply kept trying. Your message tends to support this theory. FOTA wanted to process but couldn't connect. Second, powering off/on causes FOTA to attempt to reconnect to the download computer. I had powered off/on multiple times over that past few days without FOTA going anywhere. Something, external to the Ellipsis got 'tweaked' causing the download to process. This tweak may have simply been an overloaded computer unable to accept new tasks. So, my advice is to power off/on the Ellipsis at various times to get the download to work. Onwards and upwards.

Restart gets stuck when downloading updates on MacBook Pro

Windows Update stuck on downloading on Server 2012

Hi,
Using VMWare Workstation 9, I created new virtual machine where I installed Windows Server 2012 Standard edition from MDSN disk en_windows_server_2012_x64_dvd_915478.iso In the Server 2012 virtual machine, when I go to check for updates it says
there are important updates available so I click on Install Updates. It then just gets stuck on downloading updates for hours and nothing ever happens. Stuck at 0 KB total, 0% complete. I am able to access web pages using Internet Explorer
with no problem so the machine does appear to have connectivity to the Internet. If I go to help, click on "What can I do if I'm having problems installing updates?" and click on "Tab or click to open the Windows Update troubleshooter"
it says "Windows Online Troubleshooting Service is not enabled for this version of Windows." Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks,
Greg

I had a similar problem with a guest Windows 2012 R2 running on a Hyper-V host. I went to the network adapter in device manager in the guest and I disabled the "Large Send Offload Version 2 (IPv4)" option. Why? Well, this was also an issue previously when
guesting Windows 2008 where the symptom was an error 80072ee2 when retrieving updates. See this post
http://blog.ronnypot.nl/?p=310 for details. Anyway, I tried this and it worked for me. Hung before the change, worked after.

Downloading the 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and it seems stuck at "registering updated components". It's running but I've had "about a minute" left for 30 minutes now

Trying to download the 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and it seems stuck at "Registering updated components". It's been saying it has "about a minute" left for at least a half hour. What do I do?

Try downloading it from the Apple site. Set Safari to download to the desk top:Safari preferences>general>save downloads to desktop. Download to desktop, and run the installer:

Hi Drgeert-
The hub may not be broken per se, but Apple has made adjustments to the limits on current that can be drawn from ports.
You probably need a new hub.

Hi,
Shut down and reboot your iOS (press and hold the wake/sleep button and when prompted, slide to poweroff and then press and hold the wake/sleep button to reboot).
Go look what had happen with your apps. Maybe it's ok. If not, tap and hold its icon and then tap the X to delete it from your iOS device and redownload it from the app store (no charge for that).
Juste to let you know, your description state iPad2 but you are in the forum for iPod.

SP1 Cumulative update 4 stuck on "Downloading information"

I have a server that is attempting to install the SP1 CU4 update for SCCM 2012 client but never succeeds. If you go into the Software Center on the machine, the status is continually stuck at "Downloading information".
I tried to force it by copying the installation package to the server and running the command line option specified in the package properties (msiexec.exe /p configmgr2012ac-sp1-kb2922875-x64.msp /L*v %TEMP%\configmgr2012ac-sp1-kb2922875-x64.msp.LOG /q REINSTALL=ALL
REINSTALLMODE=mous). The installation ran and appears to have been applied successfully (the version of the client shown in Control Panel --> Configuration Manager Properties went from 5.00.7804.1000 to 5.00.7804.1500) and the Software Center icon
went away afterwards.
I was just finishing up congratulating myself when I received a notification from the Software Center again that software was being installed. I opened up Software Center, and there it was again - SP1 CU4 stuck at "Downloading information".
I've rebooted several times, but Software Center continues to pop up every time with same status.
One thing I should note, I recently migrated my SCCM server to new hardware and this "problem server" was installed after the migration. Prior to that, all of my other servers received the SP1 CU4 without issue. Both servers (SCCM and
problem server) are Windows Server 2012 R2.

Thanks for the reply Anoop.
I checked the logs mentioned in the article, and everything looks fine as far as I can tell up until "Step 5: Tracking the Content Download."
In the "DataTransferService" log, there are numerous error messages:
[CCMHTTP] ERROR: URL=http://server.domain.local:80/SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/RIC00009, Port=80, Options=224, Code=0, Text=CCM_E_BAD_HTTP_STATUS_CODE
Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 404, status 'Not Found'
GetDirectoryList_HTTP('http://server.domain.local:80/SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/RIC00009') failed with code 0x87d0027e.
So looks like I have an IIS problem? I opened IIS Manager, and browsed to the directory on the DP server. In that directory, I see several other directories (DataLib, FileLib, PkgLib). I assume my package information should be in the "PkgLib" folder, but
inside that folder are just four .INI files (RIC00001.INI, RIC00002.INI, etc). There is no RIC00009.INI file, maybe that's my problem?
I also went into Config Mgr Console --> Administration --> Distribution Points, went to the properties of my Distribution Point, then to the "Content" tab, highlighted my package and clicked "Validate". Not sure though what this accomplishes.

SINGLE SCCM UPDATE STUCK AT DOWNLOADING 0% COMPLETE

I'm posting this because while there are multiple threads on the Internet about all patches on a client stuck at "downloading 0% complete", there's very little on when only one patch is stuck there network-wide. This was the "Windows Malicious
Software Removal Tool for Windows 8, 8.1 and Windows Server 2013, 2012 R2 x64 Edition - September 2014 (KB890830)". On this network it would not download on any machine. Other versions of the Sept 2014 version of 890830 did install, so it was clearly
something specific to this version of that update. After awhile, I decided to try something that worked for me: Delete the deployment that applies to the machine in question, update distribution points from the package in question, run Machine Policy on the
box in question, wait til the update clears off the Software Center screen, and then run Machine Policy and Software Updates Deployment on the Actions tab. Then the patch installed fine. Hope this helps someone else!

I just figured this out while typing this. One of the suggested threads that appeared when I was typing lead me to the answer for my case. The IIS App Pool for DPs was using an account that did not have rights to particular folder. Some security setting
pushed by the security server changed something. I changed to App Pool to an account that had the needed rights, restarted IIS, and the downloads started working. Maybe this will fix my secondary DP problem too.

Problem downloading update (stuck at 45%)

Hi,
I have a windows server 2012 datacenter and when downloading updates it stucks at 45%. Only when I select only one or two updates each time, the downloading finishes and I can to restart the server and select one or two updates more. Of course it is a problem
because I have a lot of patches for being intalled.
The windows firewall is turned off and I haven't any antivirus installed in the server.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Yes is good enough. In fact we download videos an so on without problems.
During the Windows update, was there any concurrent downloading activities?
Videos uses a lot of bandwidth, so if at the same time it was done during the Windows update then it could cause some issues. Are you using torrent in your DataCenter OS?
Anyway, try downloading Windows update when there is not much of downloading activity.
Every second counts..make use of it. Disclaimer: This posting is provided AS IS with no warranties or guarantees and confers no rights.

"Apply Downloaded Update Now..." is stuck

other versions of ff on comp not affected, just on my user acct. ff is already updated to .12, yet "Apply Downloaded Update Now..." for ver.11 still remains instead of "Check for Updates" under Help

Run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator).<br />
If that doesn't help then do a clean (re)install.<br />
Download a fresh copy of Firefox ([http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html]) and do a reinstall of Firefox on top of the current version.<br />
If that still causes the same problem then do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder.

Please help! I can not Download Updates (invalid serial)

Hi everyone,
I have FCP STUDIO 5.1 and FCP STUDIO 2 (upgrade), both are original full pack that I have been using for a while. Now I just bought a new computer and stop using the old one.
I went for download update here:
http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/download/
And it tells me to key in serial number of the new pack, I did. Then it tells me to key in the serial of the old pack, and it's not working when I keyed serial number of FCP STUDIO 5.1 in. I am stuck in the middle of an important project here and I don't know what happened.
Why did it say invalid serial number while my pack is 100% original and able to use for the past 2 years before got the upgrade version? What should I do? I really need to get back to work, I can't be late.
Any help from Apple I would appreciate alot!
Thank you.
My email: [email protected]

My standard advice in these circumstances is to be sure you're not confusing letters when you type in the serial.
It is very easy to confuse "O" (upper case o) with "0" (zero) and "I" (upper case i) with "l" (lower case L) or even "1" (one).
It might be worth your while trying to enter the number again bearing this in mind!

IOS6 stuck on downloading for 3 days!

My wife's iPhone4S has been stuck on downloading iOS6 for 3 days now. Not having come across this issue before, I'm not sure what to do? Will a reset cause any complications at this stage?
Help!

Well, of course, just after posting, the update finally went through!

App store won't download updates

Recently, I've been attempting to download updates for a few of my apps. I'm not getting any error messages, but as of now it has been stuck with the little loading wheel on and zero download progress for the last two hours. I am on a 2.5 mbps connection, and have never had any problems with download speed until now. I have restarted twice already, to no effect. I'm about to try booting from my backup, but I'd rather not have to copy over my hard drive just to get the app store working properly.
Thanks.

This might be a Lion problem and while we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t have Lion. There's a Lion Support Community where everybody has Lion. You should also post this question there. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

Ios 8 stuck at preparing Update

Erm now my ios 8 is stucked at preparing update.and i hope it can download....i forgotten to do a backup and deleted my apps....reply me please

Just came out a 45 minute chat and a one hour call with Apple. It looks like my iTunes backup of my iPad mini got somehow corrupted. Happily I also own an iPad Air and I am restoring it from that device. If your backup also got corrupted during the installation of iOS8 I am afraid you can only set it up as a new device and start all over again. You can download your apps from the App Store, your music from the iTunes Store and try to get your pictures back from iPhoto or so. I don't see a way to use the old backup if it is corrupted as well.
If you can't restore try to hold both buttons for 30 seconds or so until you see the "connect to iTunes" logo on your screen. If iTunes is complaining about turning off "Find My iPhone" you can delete the device via iCloud.com.
Life's getting easier and easier :-)
