[OSX 10.11.2]
I am getting repeated errors trying to install 2.2.2. The progress bar says the full 36.3mb has been downloaded, it sits for a couple of minutes, then I get an "UPDATE ERROR! Please try again later."

Re: Downloading Update Error
Do you see any errors when looking in the system log, using the console application? Worst case, are you able to install 2.2.2 directly from the website?
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.

Re: Downloading Update Error
Just a suggestion: when you want someone to look at logs, provide a filepath. I have been a Mac user since Day One (32 years), but system stuff confuses me.
No problem downloading from site.

Re: Downloading Update Error
No problems. For future reference:
Console location: /Applications/Utilities/Console (may be suffixed by .app, depending on view setting)
The system log is typically the default log shown, but if you don't see it look in the side bar under /var/log for system.log
More detail on the following page, if you are interested: http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials ... -mac-45251
