Q: Apple TV update not successful
I'm trying to update my Apple TV (3rd generation) to 5.11. It keeps getting right near the end of the install, hangs for a couple of minutes, and says "update not successful". I restart the Apple TV like it asks ans get the same results. I've also rest settings and attempted a restore but nothing is working.

CMW - theFeverDog posted something earlier which worked for me. Download the below file. Get to the point of restore Apple TV and hold the option key down when you click on the Restore button. Browse to the downloaded file and restore.
