There is a bug when updating from iOS 7 to iOS 9 (Skipping iOS 8). Luckily it is easy to fix!
Step 1 - Backup your device (This will save things like photos, text messages, etc).
Step 2 - Download iOS 8.4.1 for your iPhone or iPad.
Step 3 - Reboot phone into DFU mode - hold down the sleep/wake button and home button - when it reboots let go of power button - still hold home button
At this point it will ask you to connect your phone to iTunes - will have to connect phone to the computer.
Step 4 - Hold down the Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows) and and then click restore.
Step 5 - Browse to the 8.4.1 file you downloaded and select it. This should restore to the previous IOS version. Note: This will wipe phone.
Step 6 - Restore from backup. Hope that you backed up before attempting to update.
Step 7 - Download and install iOS 9.
