TS4526 How to update apple TV software?

My 2nd generation apple tv resets every 30 seconds on the entry screen and won't allow renting of movies or tv. It shuts off the radio when it resets however does not do it with most other modes (like netflix). I have restarted. The suggestion is to download software 5.2.1 or higher. How do I do it? Thanks for your response.

Go to "settings"
Choose "General"
then "update"
While your ATV is updating it will get kinka scary since there will be periods when a blue screen with "no signal" appears monentarily. Just wait it out. This is quite a long process and the unit will reset itself and the normal menu screen will reappear when it is finished updating.

HT1600 Apple TV update unsuccessful, how to update Apple TV software

Apple TV update unsuccessful, how to update Apple TV software

Hi (Bonjour)!
Same problem here, the Apple TV 3rd gen. has suggested an update, but despite the complete download, the process failed on the second step(progress bar) and I've got an "connect to iTune with micro USB cable" splash screen, no white LED on ATV.
I've connected the ATV unit to my "up to date for all soft" 2013 iMac, and I've got the restore Apple TV dialog. The download completes, but the update process failed with an "1611 error" warning. It seems that his error is related to virus protection software. But... I do not use any virus protection software... so I can't apply any suggested workaround to solve the problem.
I've now a dead box Apple TV.
Bad, bad move when selecting "apply update" on a pretty usable ATV.

How to update apple ID in iCloud settings

Apple ID is greyed out, how to update apple ID in settings for iCloud on iPad mini?

If you want to move to a new, separate iCloud account you have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account. Deleting the account will only delete it from your phone, not from iCloud. This will not effect other devices still using the account. Also, you can continue to share your ID for the iTunes and App stores even though you will have a different ID for iCloud. They do not need to be the same.
To begin, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, if you have any data in either iCloud account that you no longer want (such as someone else's contacts) you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete it.

Tried to update Apple TV software and it has been unresponsive since for the last 36 hours. Thoughts please?

More details. Just keeps blinking and nothing is on the screen. After holding the menu button down and unplugging it, a symbol looking like a plug into iTunes showed up, but I do. Not have the right cord. It never gave me the option not to do the download as others have reported.

how to update my ipad software

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    1.    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    2.    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    3.    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    4.    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    5.    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
    1.    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    2.    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    3.    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    4.    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    5.    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    6.    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    7.    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    8.    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom

Unable to update Apple TV software

TS3694 how to update apple iphone 4.4.3 to latest 6.1.2

Current itunes software version is 11.0.2. Windows on laptop does updates regularly. However, whenever i connect iphone 4 to itunes and try to update IOS 4.4.3 to the latest, it prompts error message i.e.missing files etc. Pls help

You can do this from the iPhones settings while connected to wifi or connecting the iPhone to a computer with iTunes. The article below will show you how:

Note: It would be wise to back up your iPhone before updating and also checking out the new layout for iOS 7 to make sure the new look is something you like.

I don't understand how to update my OS software!

T-Mobile finally released the 4.5 version of the BlackBerry software but I don't understand how to update my phone's OS. Their instructions are extremely confusing (leaving out information) and I'm just not sure how to do this. All I want to do is update the OS, I don't want to delete anything from the phone.
Their instructions say to download the file from their website to update but they fail to tell you when to connect you phone (hey I'm a new user of these phones) so the **bleep** software installs on my pc! I'm like wtf??? Then on further down their instruction page they tell you to put a check mark in back up my settings but leave the checkmarks below that for delete apps, etc unchecked...yet I can't uncheck them, there are checkmarks in them already and the boxes are greyed out and I can't remove the checkmarks.
I just don't know what to do, I do not want to have to sit here for hours resetting up my phone all over again (it's really a pain in the ass)! Isn't there a way to just update the OS on the phone without deleting anything from the phone? If not f this then!

OK and when I run desktop manager then what do I do? There are no instructions after this setup with my mobile carrier, they just leave me hanging. Also, is my phone going to be wiped or will it just update the OS? I don't want to lose all my settings that took me hours to setup on this thing and have to redo everything all over again. Backup? I don't understand how to do that either (again all of this is new to me). I don't have a second phone where I can call T-Mobile on the phone and have them walk me through it, I only have my cell that's it. They refuse to give me instructions unless I'm on another phone when I call them, why they won't let me write them down is beyond me...these carriers are getting mighty picky these days on customer service/technical support.
