I tried this (that came to my mind first), but with no result. I'd check in a few days again. Thanks
Got a tip for us?

Apple Releases iOS 17.6 With Bug Fixes and Security Improvements

My 13 Pro is still on 17.3.1. As much as I want security fixes, I learned long ago that every iOS update is two steps forward and one or more steps backward. I expect I’ll update to 17.6.x just before iOS 18 comes out so I can be on the last iOS 17 for a few months to avoid iOS 18 and all the problems it will certainly create.
I'd been getting better battery life on my 13 Pro with 17.6 RC and that still seems to be the case with 17.6.
A few others seem to concur.
My update just failed. The iPhone is frozen with the Apple logo and the horizontal bar underneath it, but is unresponsive.
The error message: "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. You are not authorized to make this request.

Repeated verification failures on iPhone 15 Pro Max running 17.5.1. Looking at the posts just above, I think I'm glad the update failed.
You're lucky. My iPhone 14 Pro running 17.5.1 may be bricked. It's certainly unusable right now.
Just updated. Went fine. No issues met updating apps in the appstore as some have mentioned or verification errors during preparing.

All updated here fine and apps were updated in the app store by pulling down as usual after. iPhone 14 Pro and iPad Pro M4 are working fine, I did a full update via my mac, not the delta update.
I had the same thing happen to me about a month ago on iOS 17.5.1. The recently updated apps just disappeared, but it did not affect the actual update functionality. As soon as the new app updates become available for you, they should show up in your list as usual. Then gradually your recently updated list will repopulate too.
just upgraded to 17.6 from 17.4.1.
it did fix a bug with facetime link, which failed to name the facetime link since the release of IOs 17.
however, a funny bug of categorizing pesticide to sauce in grocery list is still there.

Updated from 17.5.1 to 17.6 yesterday evening (local time), and this morning the alarm (set using the sleep schedule in the health app) went off as usual, but without any sound (nor any vibration). Woke up by myself about 45 minutes later and the alarm was still going...just completely silent.
It's a good thing I'm in my sixth and final holiday week, and didn't actually have anything I needed to do this morning...

How can you be on this build when it is buggy as a beta and not take the leap of faith on 18.1
Dunno how you can sleep at night being deprived of Apple Intelligence haha

Would this iOS 17.6 and iPadOS 17.6 update fix the iMessage stickers issue that some iPhone 15 (Pro/Pro Max?) users are allegedly experiencing?
For context: Trying to access the stickers drawer in the Messages app results in being instantly kicked out back to text/keyboard input.

Mine appeared to be stuck on verification, but I just let it sit there while watching TV, and eventually it retried and worked. Probably the servers were busy.
If you get impatient and start messing around with the phone, it will cause more problems. Just wait until it retries on its own.
Installed without problems on my iPhone 15 Pro, my M1 iPad and my Homepods. Everything seems to work fine so far.
I also had a notice on my iPhone that Siri was updated somehow. But the message was away so quick I was not able to take a screenshot.
After reloading the App list I also saw the list with updateable apps again.
So hopefully TVOS and MacOS will install that smoothly as well...

That's what I do. I pull down and hold it while the little wheel spins. The apps may update eventually but I do things manually. It's been like this for quite some time.
I saw this issue on my iPad after the 17.6 update although my iPhone updated to 17.6 with no issue. I tried rebooting the iPad and nothing changed. I then tried going to Settings > App Store and toggling App Updates off and back on. That fixed it for me.
