Q: Apple TV not updating?
Hello everyone!
I wanted to use the airplay mirroring feature of the 5.1 update but My Apple TV does not seem to want to update. The software is currently at 4.3, obviously it has not been updated in awhile. Every time I click to update the software it says there is no updates available. Researching online has not helped me with this issue
This Apple TV was "inherited" from my older brother who is notorious for jail breaking his apple products. However, i am unsure if it is infact jail broken. I was hoping that I could do a quick restore of the Apple TV and everything would be fixed. But, to no avail did this work. Rather disappointing if you ask me. I have a MacBook Pro and I was also wondering if I could update it from there.
Any and all information will be great!

What is showing up on the main menu screen? To try a restore through your MBP grab a micro usb cable and connect via iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If it is jailbroken that does open up the device to issues and you will not get support here or from Apple.
