I must have tried a 100 times now - and stil its failing...will try again in a couple of hours

Just got it on iTunes. Downloaded in 4 minutes tops. I love fast internet hang in there!

 

[Paradoxally]

just upgraded, battery life is terrible so far. already down 80%

Nice trolling.

I've been trying to update three devices. One got to about 90% downloaded then failed. The other two fail more or less instantly. I was trying again and again and again, but will now wait a few hours.

I don't get it -- they have a queuing system so these errors should not happen. Your device requests an update, then waits in a queue until Apple feels they can deliver it. What's the problem? It doesn't seem like a timeout issue since the failure usually occurs within a second of the update being requested.

I get the feeling some people might be getting an update error message? Anyone able to confirm?

"Software Update Failed". 'An error occurred downloading iOS 9.' Anyone else getting this? UK here.

Same issue for me...

 

[avanpelt]

Got in and was able to download the update after receiving numerous "Update Failed" errors. It's working through "Preparing Update" now.

43MB update for iOS9GM. So GM isnt final version.

 

[Tamagotchi]

I'm guessing you've never used a Windows machine. They push out patches every week to fix stuff they didn't fix or find when the OS initially launched.

At least they are weekly fixes, and not seasonal

 

[jtrenda33]

Same here. Will restart the iPhone and try again, just in case.

Already tried that. Doesn't work.

I REFUSE to accept more terms and conditions which allow Apple to track me. We need a way to download without accepting these ridiculous terms. We bought the phone, we own it, why can't we just download without needing new T&C's?

 

[trekkie604]

Button spamming ftw. I am now downloading; complete in 5 min.

 

[Shanpdx]

OTA shows 1GB update on my iPhone 6 - not going to brick it, will go home and update through iTunes.

not taking any risk, thanks apple!

 

[MaliciousDesign]

Yes, I am getting this too. I had the goldenmaster developer 9.0 installed already...is that why? Also, why are people with the Goldenmaster 9.0 dev getting this one too?

 

[Damolee]

Tried 30 times, failed. I give up for one day. UK here.

 

[T5BRICK]

Updated from GM to new build 13A344. Seems about the same performance wise so far, but I'll reboot later today.

 

[sniffies]

How long have you been using the News app?

Ever since GM hit the shelves. Why?

 

[daio]

JUST KEEP trying and it will eventually work, Updated both my devices after trying 20 times plus on each.... Jeez people

 

[laurim]

Just tried and got an error immediately. Hope it's just a server overload that will resolve later today.

 

[dj1891]

It is downloading on iTunes for me but its 1.55GB

Makes 2 of us

 

[navaira]

OTA: "Failed"
iTunes: "8.4.1 is the most recent version"

 

[Sukach]

Just keep telling yourself that this is a good problem to have. Our Android brothers would LOVE to be getting a Failed Download message while trying to update their phones to the latest release on the day the upgrade was available.

 

[LordBeelzebub]

I'm getting the fail to update message also.
