how to update an Apple TV without a remote
Yes. That is what I did. Still cannot get them to work. Oddly, the pairing does t work and the backup plan is to “upgrade software on Apple TV” which , btw, you cannot do without a functioning remote!!!!!!

No iTunes anymore, can't even connect it to a MacBook. The iPhone tells me to type in a code. So how do I do that? This is really something Apple should stop doing - frustrating its customers! Utter waste of time just because Apple didn't want to put a physical button on the darn thing!
If you have a remote and it is paired to the Apple TV and the remote is functioning normally and you still cannot update then please do the following:
What is the model Apple TV?
Identify your Apple TV model - Apple Support
Find your Apple TV model number - Apple Support
What is its version system software?
What is the model remote?
If you seek assistance, then please provide the necessary information.

You don't, you need to locate or replace the remote.
The replacement remote, when pushing buttons, makes the Apple TV led flash yet it does control/communicate with the screen. How is this pairing done without a functioning remote?
Sorry, does NOT control the tv.
I am having the same problem. Bought a new remote and cannot connect it to Apple TV. Is there no way to FORCE the TV to upgrade to a newer firmware without a silly remote? That's amazing!!!!
Did you ever figure it out? Im struggling with this same issue where I can’t connect my remote bc I need to update the software, but I can’t update my software without a remote.
