How To Skip Software Update When Setting Up New Iphone

artfossil

I chose to transfer information from my one-time Phone and was then prompted to update new phone to iOS 14.two. I've been stuck in that update for an hour ("Install Now" and spinning beachball) and can't exercise annihilation else on/with the new phone.

What tin/should I do?

Never mind--I close down the new phone and restored and started all over again. And got through software update!

Always chose restore grade iCloud instead of transfer from phone. It'due south usually a lot quicker and you lot tin utilize ur telephone during the process!

I'm not certain that'southward true. I used the transfer from phone option for the first time this time and I recollect it was much quicker than the iCloud restore. Especially if you count the time it would have to update the fill-in of your one-time telephone. It only took about ten minutes to transfer the data, so the phone rebooted and I was able to use it as it downloaded all the apps from the cloud, like to how a restore from the deject would have worked.

I'thousand not sure that's true. I used the transfer from phone choice for the first time this time and I retrieve it was much quicker than the iCloud restore. Especially if you count the time it would accept to update the backup of your former phone. It only took nearly ten minutes to transfer the data, and so the phone rebooted and I was able to use it as it downloaded all the apps from the cloud, like to how a restore from the cloud would have worked.

I had three failed transfer from telephone setups today (starting time one was related to the update problems), but the quaternary fourth dimension I did the iCloud backup method and I was upwards and running in a few minutes. I was going from an XS Max to a 12 Mini. Maybe the 11 is amend at this?

For me, the transfer from telephone option was a big error and caused, I think, the software update failure. Once I restored the phone I went through the update manually process and selected iCloud fill-in to restore from. The software update was very fast and the whole setup process took less than 30 minutes, including pairing with my Watch.

One affair I was relieved about was that the ATT validation only took about 30 seconds.

I am having an issue of all of my apps are yet loading.

Only Apple apps are all set up.

I have restarted, signed in and out of the app store...

Don't know what is going on.

Make sure you're connected to wifi. The apps will only reload if y'all're on Wifi.

BrettDS

I was. But I stock-still it.

I simply reset network settings. Reinput my wifi password and all is well!!

Glad it's working. I wonder if you had depression data way turned on for the wifi connection before you reset information technology. That might also preclude the apps from loading.

BrettDS

Not certain. Merely I only looked and changed information technology to standard.

No 5G here in Mass yet for Verizon.

I appreciate your help.

I'k non sure we're talking about the same matter. What I meant was the following:

Become to Settings, then WiFi, and then click the little blue (I) for your active wifi network. In that location is a toggle in in that location for "Depression Information Mode" which will prevent it from performing sure high data usage operations over that WiFi connection.
