Unable to update my AppleTV2 to 5.0

Legacy 2nd gen Apple TV
1

Call me crazy but I would like to update my apple tv 2 to the latest firmware…

and take a break from all this stuff…   when I went to the general menu in the apple tv,

and tried to update ( Settings, General, Update Software ) it indicates I have the latest software, but it’s only 4.4.4…

how do I allow my apple tv to update even if it wipes it all out, jailbreak et all…  ( want to take a break )

 

can someone please help me reset this puppy so it will download the latest update from apple,…

 

I can always mess around with it once a jail break comes out for 5.0 :slight_smile:

 

cheers and thanks :slight_smile:

You have to put the ATV2 into DFU mode (as was needed for a jailbreak), and then connect it to iTunes via USB and do a restore.
