HT202118 Latest Apple TV update will not install

I tried both methods listed here on my 3rd generation, but still fails even when hooking up to the Mac.
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV - Apple Support

Are you trying to restore your ATV 3 to factory settings or update its software to version 7.0.3? Restoring it to the factory settings will wipe out all your customized settings, which I'm guessing is not what you want.
If you just want to update the software, on the ATV use Settings > General > Software Updates > Update Software.
When I did this, the first attempt failed with a message that I think meant the download of the new software stalled out. But I tried again a few minutes later & the software did download & install successfully, although the progress bar time remaining message during the download fluctuated wildly, going from "3 minutes remaining" back to "4 minutes" so often that I thought it would never complete.
It seems for this update, patience & perseverance are required.

  • Camera Raw 5.7 Update will not install

    I have a MacBook Air with Bridge 4. The Camera Raw 5.7 Update will not install. I've tried it both through Help/Updates and Software Update. Any ideas?

    You can also install it manually.
    Be sure to have the latest download, then open the DMG file (should do so automatic) and grab the plug in file to drag it in the correct place.
    This is the path:
    Library (That is on root level, not your user account library!) / Application Support/ Adobe? Plug-ins / CS4 / File Formats.
    In this folder should only be one version present and it is called "Camera Raw.plugin" Under info it should say version 5.7.

  • OSX software updates will not install

    Softward updates will not install on my MacBook Air (OSX 10.7.4).  The updates download, but then during the installation process a message pops up saying that an error occurred and that nothing was installed.  I've tried it 5 times with the same result each time. 
    Any suggestions (for a non-technical person)?

  • Updates will not install using App Store on 10.7.5

    Updates will not install using the App Store.  I am using a MacBook Pro on 10.7.5.  When I click the button labeled "update" in App Store, the little wheel in the upper left-hand corner continues to spin forever (I waited 12 hours one time) but nothing happens.  No updates will install.  My Macbook Pro has always operated without issues since I bought it new in 2009, and I have a reliable, fast internet connection.

    Let's try a test here.
    Make a new User Account, and try to update from there.

  • The apple software updater will not update

    the apple software updater will not update the following apps
    iTunes
    Quicktime player
    iCloud
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    There is a tech note on what to do when an install or update fails.
    Often due to prior copies and cache of those on your system.
    Some you have to uninstall but it will leave behind files and folders that then have to be manually removed.
    Clone Windows just in case.
    Run chkdsk
    Cleanup
    Use CCleaner or similar and repair the Registry might help too.
    I just did a clean install Windows 10 Preview, and the one app I most feared installing installed and seems to be fine, iTunes 12.01+

    Never mind. I kept trying, and finally when I opened "About This Mac" and clicked the software update from there (as opposed to the "Software Update" just below), the Java update finally worked.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

    I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
    iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
    My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
    I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
    My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
    Did you ever find anything more to this?

    my IOS7 update will not install.  It is telling me it is unavailable after it tries to install.

    Too many people trying across ITunes now.  Backup device, then disconnect it back update directly from the device.  I have complete two iPhones and two iPads.  Plan on about 15-30 minutes depending on your download speed.
    Good luck!
