iPad update 18.7.7 fails: 'unable to verify' error

Re-download the update, and try again.

If there are any VPN apps around, delete those temporarily, restart, and test again. (Why delete? Disabling the VPN doesn’t always untangle the add-on VPN apps.)

Multiple reports have been seen in recent hours concerning issues with installing the iPadOS 18.7.7 update. You may need to wait for a few hours for the issue to be corrected by Apple.

Otherwise, you might seek assistance directly from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page.

Alternatively, you can initiate and manage your support cases from Apple devices using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

Thank you. But no VPN’s. Have already done the standard protocols. And still nothing.

Contact Apple Support, then.

My wife and I have been trying to download this latest ios update 18.7.7 for 2-3 days now but just keep getting the same error message ‘Unable to verify update’ ios 18.7.7 is temporarily unavailable, try again later. As I say being trying again later for 3 days now and still getting the same error.
