 * I have been trying to install both the new WordPress update to 3.6.1 and updates
   to my site plugins for a few weeks and am having considerable issues. Every time
   I input my FTP username and password, the update process begins, but it gets 
   stuck unpacking the update and will never finish the process. With plugins, the
   site goes into maintenance mode and will not complete either, leaving the site
   inaccessible for a while.
 * What could be the issue here?

 * Try manually updating. Read the [Manual Update ](http://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress#Manual_Update)
   directions first!
