I've been wondering who and when someone would pick up on this. I saw the report from Reuters on Thursday. . . and say it was people complaining about connection issues. iOS is NOT crashing on "downloading" the update to iOS 9. It merely says "Software Update Failed, An Error Occurred Installing iOS 9" because the servers were overloaded with multimillions of iOS users trying to download at the same time. Older iPhones have slower processors and take longer, which means they will have more of a tendency to time out. This was first reported by Reuters. No iPhones or iPads actually are "crashing" or locking up. Just the download stops. . . and they have to start over. The article points to FOUR, count'em, four complaining Tweets, without proof they actually come from iPhone users, out of millions of iPhone and iPad users. Reports say that by Thursday, 17% of all iOS users had already upgraded successfully. They were the same Tweets that were in the original Reuters report. SHEESH! — PING!

Apple iOS update FUD

Well I guess then those Twitter people are liars and need to be shot? Jesus, you act like those damn things cannot possibly have this happen.

Instead of trying to run cover for Apple for some goofy PR reason, it is perfectly ok for iOS users to know that this could happen and to be on the look out.
