Is there a problem with 9.3.6 update? Tried for two days. The update is available but loads just sits there for multiple hours spinning but never finishing. It is cell + WiFi model with 15 gig memory free. No SIM card installed. My WiFi is 100mbs +.
iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular
I just bricked my iPad 3 trying to install 9.3.5. First tried stand-alone installation over WiFi, stuck in endless loop. Then using iTunes. Now I've just got an Apple logo and a progress bar that never advances. Turning on/off or resetting both buttons for 10 seconds + always brings back the same useless logo and progress bar. A real pain since this iPad with 64GB has been in daily use mainly as a reading device with 2500+ books installed and about 60000 photos.

Wooooah! I am so sorry to read you. I guess you were talking about the upgrade 9.3.6? Thank you for your post. I will stop the installation of 9.3.6 right away and wait for a clear solution. Because for the installation over WiFi on my Ipad 3, I was also stuck in endless loop. I hope you didn't lose all your data. I wish you luck! =)
Yes that was a typo, should be 9.3.6 of course. In the end I was able to restore and update using iTunes - the problem was that I wasn’t waiting long enough. I was stuck with an apparent loop and no progress on the progress bar for almost 30 mins, then it suddenly completed without warning. I never saw an update take this long or behave like this.
You can also try to update with iTunes on a PC / Mac.
ô! I am happy for you! Thanks for the update. I will proceed with iTunes , then. And I will be veeeery patient! ;-)
