Hi Lynne, The source web page for iOS download versions listed by device at the iDownloadBlog that I posted earlier will also work for finding iOS for the Apple TV (as well as for the various iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad devices):
http://www.idownloadblog.com/iphone-downloads/ For the 2nd generation Apple TV, there are links to version 4.4, 4.4.1, and 4.4.2 which should be the latest version of iOS 5. I haven't used these myself, but if the context menu doesn't help you here once the software is downloaded, try using an Option+Click. My very best to Gordon. HTH.
