Having trouble updating your iPad or iPhone to iOS 7.1? We did too. Two devices in the Macworld office got stuck at iOS 7.0.6. Here's how the situation was solved.
Minor excitement this week, as Apple rolls out iOS 7.1, a small update to its iPhone/iPad operating system that's perceived as rolling back or fixing some of the more controversial elements of iOS 7. iPhone 4 users in particular found that iOS 7 heavily slowed the performance of their smartphones, and iOS 7.1 improves this substantially; and many of the more outrageous colour and design choices have been softened too.
Some iPad and iPhone users have been complaining that they can't update to iOS 7.1, however - even though iOS 7.1 was rolled out yesterday, some Apple fans checked Software Update (from the Settings app and the General section) and could only see iOS 7.0.6, and even that wouldn't update when clicked, notifying the user that iOS 7.0.6 "failed verification because you are no longer connected to the Internet". (Even though the device certainly was connected to the internet.) What's going on?
