I think I must be the only person on the planet still running iOS 5...

Good luck!

My iPhone 6 Plus runs like a champ with iOS 9.

iOS9 has been fine for me

I thought this was going to be a thread about an incident with a Granny Smith.

ExplodingCarrots · 24/09/2015 11:27

It's fucked my phone up too Sad

Iloveonionchutney · 24/09/2015 11:28

A lot of people had problems, there's a new update available today again, 9.0.1 that's sorted it.

TheSkiingGardener · 24/09/2015 11:29

Can you do a factory reset and then restore from your back up?

StarlingMurmuration · 24/09/2015 11:31

I'm still running iOS 5 on my phone and iOS 6 on my ipad. I don't like change.

lovelyupnorth · 24/09/2015 11:33

I thought from the title it might have been a thread written by Snow White Grin

SoupDragon · 24/09/2015 11:41

I never update until several subsequent updates to the software have been made my Apple.

I see 9.0.1 is out now.

DoloresLandingham · 24/09/2015 11:49

What model phone do you have?

cozietoesie · 24/09/2015 11:52

9 had some acknowledged glitches. I installed 9.0.1 this morning so you might try that eventually - couldn't be much worse from the sound of things.

Have you got an Apple store near to you? You could take it in if all else fails.

lovelyupnorth · 24/09/2015 12:08

No No Apple Store nearby. it keeps trying to restore then erroring. they are now blaming Microsoft fucking classic

A PITA. I have an ipad and not iphone and ios9 glitches haven't seemed to impede its functionality much - more along the lines of minor irritants.

Is this at all useful? (From the second part I reckon.)

Iamnotloobrushphobic · 24/09/2015 12:49

I thought this was Jong to be a thread about a certain well known person having sexual encounters with fruit as well as dead animal parts. After all apples and pork do kind of go together.....

MackerelOfFact · 24/09/2015 12:53

It's screwed up my iPad, I'm frozen on the 'slide to upgrade' screen. Apple's fix is to plug it into a computer and reset from iTunes - except computer wants me to confirm access to my iPad FROM MY IPAD. Which is frozen.

Luckily I live and work near two different Apple stores so have an appointment later on. I think it's going to need to have to be factory reset, unless they can install the fix at the store.

BalthazarImpresario · 24/09/2015 14:01

As someone who works in phones, and tomorrow being the busiest day of the year... I'll be telling everyone that their shiny new 6s handsets need an immediate upgrade. The phones have been ready a while so will only have 9... Yay

hellsbellsmelons · 24/09/2015 14:03

I was told by someone who works for apple to never upload a round number update.
Not even a 9.1 - should always be 9.1.1 or something similar.
So I take that advice and never update unless it has decimal places.

lovelyupnorth · 25/09/2015 16:57

cheers, still fucked though

normally i wait a while not sure why i didn't this time
