Iphone 6 won't allow ios 8.0.2 update

I purchased a new iphone 6 and restored it from an icloud backup.  My previous phone, an iphone 5, had ios 8.0.2 installed on it but now my new iphone 6 won't allow me to download and install the update.  My home screen shows the badge app icon on settings stating that there is a pending download, but when i select software update, i am told that the update has already been downloaded but it can't be installed until i finish restoring from icloud backup.  I have no idea what that means because all other apps have been restored and i don't know what else i can do.  I am experiencing numerous bugs and errors and would like to download the update.

Hi there 22zach22,
It sounds like your iPhone is still restoring some items from your previous iCloud backup. You can observe the progress of this in your iCloud settings, at the bottom of the page, where it shows your iCloud storage and last backup information:
iCloud - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iph3c79652c
If you feel that this restore process has stalled, you may want to perform a reset on your phone using the following article:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
For best results, I recommend that you make sure you are connected to power and connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot when you perform the reset. Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Braden

    Restart your phone, hold the home and off button at the same time until the apple symbol comes up.

    after updating to iOS 6.0.1 my iphone 3s won't recognize my SIM card. i updated my phone through iTunes, what happened to my phone?

    If it now says "invalid" or "unsupported" SIM, your iPhone was almost certainly hacked to unlock it from the original cell carrier and updating has now removed that hack and the iPhone has relocked back to that original carrier. You will have to contact that carrier and ask if it would be possible to get your iPhone officially unlocked.

  • What to do if itunes erases the songs on your iphone and won't allow you to resync them back?

    what to do if itunes erases the songs on your iphone and won't allow you to resync them back?

    Do you get any specific error messages?  Double-check the following:
    On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos"
    In your music library you have checked all the songs you want to sync to your phone
    There are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
    You have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for any purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize this computer)
    You have checked "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
    When everything looks correct, sync your phone.

    My ipad 2 keeps freezing up and has been slow, also won't allow me to check software update. Any ideas??

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • Downloaded iOS 8 to iPhone 4s, won't allow start up.

    Have just downloaded iOS 8 to my iPhone 4s on start up the phone seems to be in a loop at the Apple ID Sign in page to set up iCloud. Whether you sign in or try to skip this step it loops back to the Hello screen and then through to the Apple ID Sign in again. It won't allow you to progress any further and won't allow start up.

    I still have no WiFi nor do I have Bluetooth capabilities on my iPhone 4S. I Tried to do a system restore and it's exactly the same as before. Could Apple please expedite an update to solve this WiFi issue? Maybe go back to how you had the WiFi working in iOS7??? It's cutting into my limited data plan and I'd appreciate it if I could use the product I paid for and not feel like I'm being scammed out of it for lack of a better term.

  • Iphone 4s won't install ios 5.0.1

    Hi.
    i am trying to update my iphone 4s to ios 5.0.1. When it tries to install it, it tells me that my firmware is not compatible.
    It is a week old iphone, so their shouldn't be any problems ?

    i guess, you have iOS 5.0 and trying to update to iOS 5.0.1 via iTunes.
    Apple has two different builts of iOS 5.0.1 update. It caused me the same problem.
    My solution:
    First, update your phone to 5.0.1 via the Wi-Fi connection of your phone. Don't connect it to your computer and iTunes. Instead, go to settings and find software update. Then, update it wirelessly. Here, you will probably get iOS 5.0.1 (built 9A405)
    Later, you can connect it to iTunes again and click on restore. (don't forget to click Back up to keep your data). Then, iTunes will download and install you the newest firmware iOS 5.0.1 (9A406).
    The slight difference between iOS 5.0.1 updates can create compatibility problems while updating from iOS 5.0.0, in my opinion. Wireless update brought me 9A405 and iTunes brought me 9A406. The problem was my phone couldn't get updated directly to 9A406 from regular iOS5.0. I needed to update step by step.
    I hope it helps.

  • My iPhone 5 died after the iOS 6.1.2 update

    I updated my Iphone 5 to the new iOs 6.1.2 last Thursday and ever since, the battery drains within a few hours without me even using it. Last night it got to the point where it wouldn't even charge anymore and now I am stuck with a dead iPhone 5. Before it died I tried to do a reset and everything to try and fix the problem. I know other people have the battery drain issue, but did anyone else's iPhone just competely die and won't charge anymore either? Any help is appreciated, thank you.

    I also forgot to mention that when it did have power, it wouldn't let me shut it off to try and conserve the battery life. Right when it powered down it would power right back up.

  • HT1222 I'm connected to WiFi, but it won't allow me to download the update needed, why??

    I have an IPhone 5 & it's saying I need to update my software, but when I go to general settings & go to updates it won't allow me to update. Even though it has a 1 update. Can someone tell me how to fix this? Thx

    You should be able to re download the book on your iPad.
    Try here >   Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    On your iPad tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Swipe down and make sure Books is switched ON.
    Purchased books should appear when tapping the iBooks icon now.

  • IPhone no longer works after iOS 5.0.1 update

    My iPhone 4 no longer recognizes its SIM card after updating from iOS 5.0 to 5.0.1.
    I followed the instructions in the article on the official Apple support site. Removing and reinserting the SIM card did not help, so I used iTunes to reset the iPhone.
    The result is that after switching on, the iPhone tells me that there is no SIM card in the slot (even if there there is) and that I should insert a SIM card with no PIN lock into the slot.
    I do not have a SIM card with no PIN lock.
    My phone company only distributes SIM cards with a PIN lock.
    What can I do now?

    I had this issue too. I did an OTA update.
    I tried turning off my iPhone, removed and reinserted my SIM and turning it on again a few times without success. I also inserted my wife's SIM, it was OK. When I tried with mine again, it was not. I also tried going in and out of Airplane Mode too without success.
    Afte a bit of trial and error, I finally got it to work.
    What I did was:
    1. Turn off WIFI.
    2. Turn off my iPhone.
    3. Removed and reinserted my SIM.
    4. Turned on my iPhone. Almost immediately I saw the  "3G" indicator and after a couple of seconds, my SIM worked!
    5. Turned WIFI back on.
    From my issue, it seems the iOS 5.0.1 update got "confused" with the network setup.
    HIH.

  • My iPhone no longer syncs after iOS 5.0.1 update.

    I have an iPhone 3GS (16GB), and ever since I updated to iOS 5.0.1 it has been refusing to sync via USB and WIFI. Apparently it needs an additional 8.32GB of space, despite the fact that nothing's changed with regards to the content being synced. I've attached a screenshot for reference.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
