I bought another Fitbit One as a back up and it won't update to the new firmware version. I have tried turning it off and on, turning off my wi-fi on  my phone,  turning my phone off and on and trying to update it directly from my Mac and I get "AN UNKNOWN ERROR OCCURRED". 

When I try to do it on my iPhone I get the Error 500 message.

Now what?

Try that out and let me know how it goes! Smiley Happy
