iPadOS 17.7.7 update has really caused issues to my iPad Pro

This fix should be moved to the very top! I had previously downloaded & trusted the following 2 trust certificates from Apple PKI - Apple :

Apple Root CA - G2 Root

Apple Root CA - G3 Root

After doing this, which I found on a previous thread, I restarted my iPad, but I was still have the same issues (most apps would not connect to wifi). Apparently this fix had fixed this issue for several people with the same issue we are all having. I actually stopped trying to fix mine for the night & decided to try again today. I came across this comment/fix & decided to give it a try.. because why not, I’d done everything else & was exhausted, mad, frustrated, etc. After doing what StephC74 suggested everything was finally working again! THANK YOU!!! I don’t know if it was a combination of downloading/trusting the 2 trust certificates, then temporarily disabling iCloud Drive & iCloud Keychain, restarting iPad & enabling iCloud Drive & iCloud Keychain, but my iPad is working again! I can now access all apps, was able to add my email account back no issues, anything I search in Google or Safari downloads correctly now, etc. I hope people see her comment & this comment so they are able to get their iPad working again! I know I’ve found that any issues I have can usually be resolved in these threads, not by Apple Support sadly. I’m beyond frustrated that every time they roll out an update it causes so much trouble! I actually accepted the new iCloud terms & conditions on my phone a couple of months ago, but wish I never had. It deleted my notes & caused a ton of chaos that I still haven’t been able to fix. Good luck everyone! ☺️

If you're desperate, then download the 17.7.6 IPSW for your device from ipsw.me and using a cable plug into Mac (Finder) or PC (iTunes) restore the device to 17.7.6. It will all work, but you'll have to reinstall your apps and download whatever you have on icloud back up (contacts etc.).

Thank you for the tip. Tried to report the bug via your link but I can’t complete the feedback list as OS 17.7.7 is not in the list of operating systems 😮

If iPadOS 17.7.7 is not yet listed, choose the nearest from the available options (iPadOS 17.7.6?).

When submitting your Bug Report, please ensure that you include details of your iPad model and installed version of iPadOS within the body-text of your report along with details of the problem. Do not rely upon the pick-list - as this rarely includes the current version of iPadOS.

Having the same issue. App doesn’t even save info after a few minutes, all game progress reset.

The update has been pulled and no longer available. You will have to wait until the follow up has been released. Apple is aware of the issues reported.

Yo he conseguido volver a la versión anterior 17.7.6 de iPadOS. Se puede bajar de este enlace:

https://ipsw.me/

Como yo tenía copias de seguridad tanto en iCloud como en el Mac hechas *** la versión 17.7.7. no me ha dejado recuperar esas copias y he tenido que configurar el iPad como nuevo. Lo que, por cierto, no está nada mal porque supone una buena limpieza.

Te lleva un buen rato bajar aplicaciones y ordenar las pantallas, pero merece la pena.

17.7.8 downloaded and installed.

I had to re-register to use my banking app and my EDF Energy app; DuckDuckGo no longer asks me to choose a default browser; my various weather apps remember where I live!

My Sudoku scores (going back years!) have all disappeared and I've had to reset the display and layout to my preferred settings. I have closed and reopened the app and all is well!

That was a nasty experience and I have disabled the update "auto -install" on all my Apple devices. In future, I'll wait a few days before downloading and installing.

All sorted now:

• U and Onecta required a deletion and reload of the App
• Arrow and Klassiki App reloads now succeed, and after a password reset, both work

Like many others, I have turned off automatic updates (here and on my phone) and may never trust them again, sadly

I have same issues spoke with Apple said it’s a known software glitch Will need to wait for another software update to hopefully rectify .. it’s a pain

Before connecting your iPad, disable automatic backup and then chose to restore from your 17.7.6 backup.

Looks like Apple just released iPadOS 17.7.8. I am downloading it now. Fingers crossed that this fixes the issue.

Ya está iPadOS 17.7.8

Same issue here with my iPad.

The iPad OS 17.7.8 update is out NOW!

Hopefully, this will fix it.

Bug report submitted. Weird that the offending release (17.7.7) is not listed in Apple’s menu of options! Had to pretend it was a 17.7.6 bug…

As well as many Apps not saving credentials, Safari is no longer displaying the Bookmarks bar.

Amazing that this one got through testing - hopefully will be fixed ASAP

I guess the quickest thing to do would be to download an official signed IPSW and restore to iOS 17.7.6 using iTunes (PC) or Finder (Mac) and then reinstall your apps. Otherwise, just wait for an Apple Update of 17.7.8
