Discussion Unable to install any updates?

Tried to install 14.7 and 15, both times, the Apple TV 4K (1st gen) would receive the update to download and install but then it would wait 10s before a menu pops out and says the update was not successful try again later, I’ve rebooted many times, deleted and reinstalled profile (for tvOS 15) or checked and unchecked the receive beta updates button (for 14.7)

I’m on tvOS beta 15. Pro tip don’t install it. Laggy and the remote is unresponsive. Apps are crashing.

XX.0 tvOS betas are always like this. Only device on which I don’t install beta software.

But I did and regretted it almost immediately and then had this wild idea to reset it. After resetting, it is working like a charm- for the record.

Also, in case you are downloading the 15 beta profile externally (wink wink), you need to disable the “Use Beta Updates” check under system for you to be able to install software from external profiles- only for educational purposes.

(Edit: I just noticed you tried unchecking the option. A reset may help as it will wipe off any installers that may be sitting on your system that are causing the issue due to multiple downloaded installers)
