Apple Releases iOS 7 With UI Redesign, iTunes Radio, New Notification Center, Multitasking Screen and More

[nope7308]

WTF!!!

After multiple attempts to download iOS 7, it's now crapping out at the "preparing download" stage. Can Apple not see this deluge of downloads coming? Aren't they sitting on $50B+ in cash? COOKE, BUY MORE GODDAMN SERVERS!!!

 

[efktd]

still downloading =/

TIP:

If you're downloading, NO-ONE CARES

YOU cared enough to address it.

How ironic.

 

[chinaboxer]

Yup. There have been a few replies about this earlier in the thread, and they're all saying that's it.

OK. I'm already on GM now. Not worth the waiting.

itunes 11.1 doesn't recognize my iphone 5 which has not been updated yet

 

[!GS51!]

the current built is 11A470a not 66

Huh ?

 

[BeauPaul]

Almost done - it just rebooted and I have the big white apple with the bar under it on my iPad mini

 

[mdlooker]

itunes says no update available ????? How to update if no update available????

ota

 

[shiftless]

Success on iPhone 5
Build number is 11A465
OTA download time was 6-7 min,
Preparing was about 20 min.
Installation took about 12 min.
Reboot 2 min.
So, about 40 min total start to finish

I am doing it via OTA have you tried that?

nope could you explain pls what OTA?

 

[thechris.prince]

Download 5 minutes, preparing 21 minutes, install 11 minutes. Up and working now on my iPhone 5.

Glad you made it through and thanks for letting us know that it DOES work

I'm about a centimeter away from done with preparing update....

 

[SuperMatt]

Did anybody else notice that dozens of apps on your device wanted to update themselves this morning?

 

[Lucille Carter]

Still fails every time. Being patient is dumb.

Well then might be time to give up! Mine went perfectly and I am on 7

 

[testerdennis]

Now I see why Google does a staggered roll out of new software.

 

[Plutonius]

I can't even successfully get the iTunes update. Be back tomorrow. Good luck everyone!

Their servers must be hammered. I can't even get the iTunes update on my laptop.

 

[SuperMatt]

nope could you explain pls what OTA?

OTA stands for Over-The-Air.

 

[skiltrip]

In US. Started downloaded at about 12:00 EST. Download took ~6 minutes. "Preparing" took about 15 minutes. Reboot stage has taken another 12 minutes or so and it's around 50%.

 

[Dekimasu]

FWIW: preparing took longer than downloading. Verifying wasn't too long.

Now installing...

 

[leunac]

Struggling with download

Apple must have some difficulty dealing with so many downloads. Download keeps failing or stalling after one or two minutes.

LOL. Calm down, it's not a big deal. It hasn't even been 45 min. The world will not end if you have to wait a couple of hours.. Talk about first world problems.

 

[prosp]

"Verifying update"?

 

[xxnemoxx]

I bet Jony Ive is sitting back in his chair celebrating in his own little head knowing that his genius work is being downloaded & enjoyed by most iPhone's around the world I'd feel super happy too.

 

[xmarcuswildx]

A new version of iTunes 11.1 is available. Would you like to download it now?

Click download.

COMPUTER DOES NOTHING.

GS5 here I come. Sick of dealing with stupid **** everytime!

 

[DollFaceDork]

iPhone PREPARING UPDATE!

*breathes*

 

[Hungry&Foolish]

Preparing install done, Apple logo is big now and the bar under is very thin.
