Apple Update Download Very Slow

Issues can sometimes be related specifically to the apple id account.

Apple update download very slow. I have a very good internet connection and fast speed but still taking like 5 hours now. But there s another option and you can actually speed up the watchos software update process quite a bit by using a little trick. I was having issues with the download speed when itunes tried to download the ios software update for iphone.

Download and install any updates it finds. Apple id related problems. By default apple watch uses bluetooth to transfer update from your iphone to the watch.

In my experience apple operating system and software downloads are typically slower and sometimes time out for the first day or two after new releases and updates because of high demand. Macos big sur download is very slow is it just me or is the new update downloading really really slow. Open app store and click on store in the menu bar at the top of the screen.

Visit apple s get support website to get extra help with fixing your slow downloads. Wait for your mac to check for new updates. 6 if there s a new watchos update available you ll see its version number and release notes on the next screen.

From the menu bar go to apple system preferences software update. If you ve owned an apple watch you d know how much painfully slow it is to install an update on the watch. In this case there is a very simple solution.

If asked for your iphone passcode or apple watch passcode enter it. This helped me so i thought i share this. In this case os x mavericks 10 9 5 for mac was released yesterday on september 18th 2014 and ios 8 for iphone ipad and ipod was released on september 17 2014 so just one day apart.
