connect to itunes.. ****

Apple's new way of making sure we all download itunes onto our laptops
 
What the actual heck. iPhone just bricked itself as well. That makes 2 devices screwed up by the OTA update and I have to try and restore to the older version now. I do not jailbreak and I did not preinstall the update. Just installed for the first time now. Come on apple. Appears since I hit update right after it hit the servers, I somehow got a corrupt install.

Anyone else having these issues?
If the phone cuts off for 2-3 minutes. It's not bricked. Don't hard reset. It's part of the update process
 
When will I ever learn?
Tried to do the update on the phone and now its in recovery mode.
Beware if you dont have a computer with Itunes handy.

No way to get past the plug into iTunes screen on my iPad Pro 9.7. Now trying to rollback via iTunes and stop install on iPhone 6. I knew better than to grab it today.

OTA failed on my 6S+, like a bunch of other folks. :mad:

Now trying again through iTunes.

My iPad Air is still attempting the OTA update, no "connect to iTunes" message YET, but it's not as far along in the process.

Failed on my 6S+ too. Currently connected to iTunes with my fingers crossed.
 
"All in all it's just another...."

Ugh...downloading the new iTunes but not hopeful that will help. Now when I plug it into the new iTunes, it says it's downloading iOS10....this will be a long time...
 
In the middle of installing on my 6S. Bar stopped half way across the screen.

Anyone with a 6S been successful? Hoping I won't be joining all the others with a bricked phone.
 
Yeaahhhh.… same here. Have to revert to 9.3.5. Almost knew this was going to happen! Thanks Apple!
 
Started download OTA right at the start, took about 8 mins to download, started installing, then restarted, and now locked up
