What sort of error? What does it say?
JJust that James, "unable to install update, an error has occurred installing IOS 8.1.1"
Hi Try a Reboot press & hold power button & menu button hold both down until you see Apple Logo You may need to do this more than once and for upto 30 Seconds Cheers Brian
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
Also, check you available storage on the device and see what you have. Past experience is that you should get a specific message if that is the problem, but worth checking.
Hi, thanks for you suggestion,
I tried several reboots, still getting the same message.

IIf you receive this message while trying to update via a Wi-Fi connection try to update while connected to your computer running itunes. Be sure to turn off any virus protection software on your computer while doing the update. You can turn that back on after the update has completed.
I also getting the same error message. Did you ever get it to update?
No, afraid not, but I still have to try connecting to my PCI to do it through iTunes. I'll let you know what happen.
Update via PC carried out satisfactory.

iTunes did work and I'm on 8.1.1 now, but the new update causes the browser to hang every time I try to load yahoo email or most web pages. My hi speed wifi works just fine on other devices.
