I guess (nearly) nobody got the ota update yet. Wait until you get it or you could install the zip (when it's uploaded) via adb sideload
Sent from my Nexus 4 running Android 4.2.2

you can update to android 4.3 manually
Head to the google developers page https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam and download version 4.3

Searching works wonders.

[Q] 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 Manual Update

I have been trying to find this everywhere but I have not been able to. Is there an update package to go from 4.2.1 (JOP40D) to 4.1.2 (JZO54K)? I found one for 4.2 to 4.2.1 and was able to keep root but I can't seem to find one for 4.2.2. The only one I did find was named "03a4eaf95f73.signed-nakasi-JZO54K-from-JRO03D.03a4eaf9" from it does not work.
Thanks!

You will not find an OTA zip to downgrade from 4.2.1 to 4.1.2, that's not how this works. You've also mentioned 4.2.2 which I will assume is a typo since that doesn't exist.
If, for whatever the reason, you want to downgrade to an older version of Android than you are currently running, you'll need to a flash factory image. Here's a guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1907796

You are absolutely right, I mixed up somethings, thanks for pointing that out. Thank you for the reply, and sorry everyone. For some reason I thought the latest update was 4.2.2.

i have CWM, cyanogenmod installed. how do i get 4.3 update?

how do i get the 4.3 update with those stuff installed on my phone?
is there anyway to keep cwm and cyanogenmod w/ 4.3 update??
i havent messed with my phone in awhile so the modding stuff is very vague to me right now
just wait for an android 4.3 cyanogenmod update to come out if you want to keep cm

KitKat Update after update

I recently downloaded the kitkat update linked from there and did a fast boot install. This morning I checked my Nexus 7 and it said I had a system update to 4.4 available to download and install.
I was under the impression these were exactly the same update. Why would it upgrade my upgrade?
Also the installation I have has glitch kernel installed. I thought everything had to be stock to get the update?
And by the way I know people are tracking who is getting the OTA update and where. I live in Iwakuni Japan .

KitKat KRT16O was the first release. KitKat KRT16S is the update.
You probably installed KRT16O and got the KRT16S via OTA update.

That's because the KRT16S kernel is exactly the same as the KRT16O kernel so it wasn't included in the ota update. That allowed your existing kernel to stay in place and not get overwritten.

Makes sense.....thank you.
The update was just 3.4 mb it did not contain any boot.img
So do we know yet what the changes are?

[Q] UPGRADED TO 4.4.2 Official BUT ROOT IS GONE NOW

just upgraded from 4.3 official to 4.4 official...the update removed root..HOW DO I GET IT BACK? i don't want to wipe & iv tried Kingo root. what do i need to do!
There is no way currently to root the official update. That is why Beans and others said to wait on taking the official update until the devs looked at it.

I dunno what is your device but stock Android 5.0 (lollipop) isn't out for TW devices, only leaks or custom Roms and only for the i9505G (Google Play Edition).
