My Apple Watch 9 is stuck at “Preparing” while trying to update to WatchOS 10.3. It’s been on the charger next to my iPhone for well over two hours with progress. I know I’m not the only one with this problem, but there seems to be no way to resolve it at present. Any suggestions would be welcome.
UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who replied. After trying several of the suggestions, I rebooted my watch first, then rebooted my phone, and the update continued until completed. So, problem resolved. Again, Thank You to everyone for your replies, suggestions, and assistance.
