Actually I got lucky and updated fine. I was just linking to the thread. I updated before I saw the thread.

[akosnitzky]

I was able to download. I am sorry for those that had a problem.

 

[friednoodles]

Luckily mine installed properly as well. I'd started the installation as soon as it was available and before any reports started appearing. And it installed very quickly on the Series 4... what a change from the Series 2!

 

[mchlwise]

I had no problem either. Also installed very quickly.

Series 4 space grey aluminum, btw
