Cant restore Apple TV "Software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found"
Hi, I need to restore my Apple TV since it won't recognise my ethernet connection for some reason (connection is ok btw, tested on other internet enabled devices). I can use Wi-fi but want faster speeds so that's not a good plan B. Restoring it through the TV remote doesn't work either. So only option is to do a hard reset through a PC. Cant do it via iTunes as that's now Apple Music and can't download an older version of it through Catalina as apple won't allow it. Tried through another PC (windows that had iTunes) and received this error message "The Apple TV software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found."
So I connected it to my Mac and got the same error message in Finder.
We all know Apple makes life hard for those with older devices but why issue instructions on how to restore devices that simply doesn't work in practice? Apple are the most frustrating company sometimes, at best they over engineer (Apple Music for example) or at worst they cock it up completely (Apple Music for example).
Any ideas?
