HomePod HomePod 14.5

[Bazooka-joe]

Anyone having problems updating to 14.5. The software was downloading and then suddenly disappeared with no message saying that it was installing. When I check the release number it still says 14.4.

Same. Looking like HomePod 14.5 was pulled

Same issue here

I'm seeing the same thing here on 2 full size Homepods & a Homepod Mini. I was looking forward to checking out those new Siri voices on the devices that I use Siri on the most 😆

Yeah I reckon you’re right. They pulled the software. I’ve done a reset on all my HomePods and they’re all still saying 14.4

It’s back guys and installing now……but it’s disappeared again 😳

I went to install it on my HomePod mini and it said "downloading", but it never progressed. While waiting I updated my Apple TV and iPhone. After about 20 minutes I checked my router and it showed next to no Internet traffic, so pulled the plug and now it's saying it's update to date when I check. I'm not seeing the update.

I've managed to update one of my 2 HomePod, the other is stuck at downloading.

The servers are seemingly not coping, expect this update to be pulled over the others for at least a few hours!

Yeah I’m the same. Two of mine have updated but the other is stuck on downloading

Mine just says it is up to date on 14.4! - Its stopped even searching for any updates!

One of my HomePods updated to 14.5. The other 2 are stuck on 14.4. Anyone remember what this is supposed to do if anything?

It may be timing out due to the servers being under strain.
I have been stuck in this for my third homepod for over an hour

Disable automatic updates for your HomePods. Do a reset on both HomePods….not a remove. Then do a manual check for updates

It’s finally showing up for me

 

[Broken Hope]

Restarted my HomePod that wouldn't update and it's now installing.

 

[Hberg]

My two (Stereo pair) HomePod minis just updated to 14.5.

I cannot tell what enhancements may have been added. I was hoping for Atmos support for the HomePod mini.

Thanks for that buddy. Mine was stuck on updating for ages so I reset my third HomePod and it immediately came up with a message then there was an update to install and it’s now installing

 

[lakerchick4life]

for me on the ipad home.app it just says "Homepod up to date" I dont think it installed anything

 

[Lancetx]

I had to restart my HomePods within the Home app, then it immediately downloaded and installed the 14.5 update to all of them finally.

 

[Morac]

I unplugged my HomePod Mini and plugged it in again and it immediately downloaded 14.5. I then installed it.

For me it says on the home.app "All accessories up to date" but there is no way for me to check to see if 14.5 is what it is installed

Yes you can. In the home app, Go to one of your HomePods and forced touch the icon. Then scroll down to the bottom of the screen where you will see a cog wheel. Click on that and then scroll down to the bottom and it tells you what release your HomePod is on
