Unable to install update iPhone

I downloaded the iOS 17.2.1 but I can’t install it it keep telling me it’s Temporary unavailable

Trying to install my iOS 17.2.1 but it says I’m not connected to the internet , I have tried it so many times but same result , CANT install it

Try going into iPhone storage and delete the update and then redownload

I have the same issue! Apple won’t help with other issues on my 15 Pro Max till it’s updated. 😡😡 iOS 17.2.1 already appears to be a crapshoot…

I’ve done a soft reset, cleared cache & cookies, network reset, and made sure it’s on WiFi & plugged in.

issue still present…

How do you do a soft reset, and clear cache and cookies? Thanx

Yep,my iPhone SE 2nd Gen does the same thing repeatedly everyday,also failed to install ios 17.2.1 but it downloaded thou. Please help when you resolve the issue of turning off and on randomly. Thank you

I have recently encountered this error with my upgrade. Just solved.

NOTE: Even tho you have cleared space for the download - the Installer still requires space to complete the upgrade.

For instance, I was on 62/64GB after the download, but needed to clear another 3+GB before the installer would work.

Removal of apps is the easiest way as you can reinstall those post upgrade (I had 55/64GB remaining when complete).

Best of luck

ok so i got this new iphone 14 pro max as a gift for my birthday, and its making download the new iOS 17.2.1 software update but its been loading for almost 2 days. yes, my phone is fully charged, and yes it’s connected to my wifi. what do i do?

Mine too. Telling me I’m not connected to the internet

Same here mine is even worse. It started doing what yours did but now it’s turning off and on randomly. It will just shut down as I am using it The Apple sign comes up and then it turns on and it does that like three to four times in a row and works for a few hours but then repeats.

Mine did the same, rebooted and says 1%battery. Put in charger and says 0%charging. Keeps dying and reboots. Leave on charger and hours later decides there is 40-70%battery. Got to the stage where phone became useless and I took it to repair and got new battery. Hope it doesn’t f up again…starting to get reeeeal ******.

still can’t update.

delete from storage and try download again.

same error, some bs about not being connected to the internet.

Same here

Great tech terms, but end users need more. Soft reset means: shut your phone off and restart it, in plain English. Clear cache and cookies means… well, it means you need to know what app to do this for. OS updates aren’t running through Safari, at least in a visible way, so please be specific as to where these functions be performed.

Try and delete the update file and download it again

1. Go to Settings > General > [Device name] Storage.
2. Find the update in the list of apps.
3. Tap the update, then tap Delete Update.
4. Go to Settings > General > Software Update and download the latest update.

if this is not working please update via a pc or Mac instead
