The iDrive screen will turn off and reboot around 25 seconds, but you have to keep holding the button for 70 seconds.

After a minute, release the button, wait for iDrive to boot up

On the iDrive, click "Apps", highlight "installed apps" and then update services via the iDrive
Thanks for this. I haven’t had the app update since 1/31. I called BMW Genius and rebooted iDrive but it didn’t work. However, they had me release the power button as soon as the reboot started instead of waiting the 70 seconds. I’m not sure, but it looks like holding the power button in for 70 seconds caused a second reboot (hmm, a secret reboot perhaps).

All is working now
