Hello Sarto50,


If you're experiencing an issue updating your device, please check out this link, which has some suggestions that may help with that issue: If your iPhone or iPad won't update


If the download takes a long time

You need an internet connection to update your device. The time it takes to download the update varies according to the size of the update and your internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the update, and your device will notify you when you can install it. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content and use a Wi-Fi network.


Thanks!
