Zune Thoughts community member <a href="http://forums.thoughtsmedia.com/member.php?u=274" class="bigusername">randalllewis</a> posted an interesting comment <a href="http://forums.thoughtsmedia.com/showthread.php?p=239333#post239333">in our forums</a> that I thought was worth sharing:<br /><br /><em>"Here is a little secret about the new firmware upgrade- it can't be installed if your Zune is nearly full. I have two 8GB Zunes. After plugging in, my Zune with less than a 1GB of space just sat there and did not download the new firmware When I tried to force it to do so, I received the message that no update was available. Plugging in my Zune with about half of its memory available, the update downloaded and installed without issue. I think a warning about this issue would be appropriate somewhere on the Zune software."</em><br /><br />So if you have a Zune that won't accept the firmware upgrade, try freeing up some space. Or, as I've had to do twice now with my Zune 80, disconnect it, reboot it, then re-connect it.
