They just work

Thanks for the heads up.

I encountered some minor problems updating my 9.7" iPad Pro to iPadOs 15.2, but the solution was simple.

When the update started, it displayed a message that there was not enough free memory and some of my content was going to be offloaded into temporary storage while the OS was updated. I then started getting a display that the update was downloading, which ran overnight and still had not stopped when I called Apple 14 hours later.

Apple had me turn off the power and then start deleting items after I turned the power on again. Fortunately I had no problem deleting multiple gigabytes of memory without any consequences, as I had quite a few videos from The Great Courses that I could download again later without a problem.

Once I had freed up a bunch of memory, the OS update was as smooth as normal. The problem appears to have been that Apple's approach to temporarily offloading some of my content did not work as intended.

Interesting, Tom. It's intimidating to think about turning off a device stuck in the middle of an update... as if you might brick it. I'm glad it was fairly easy to resolve once you got direction from Apple.

Do you know how close you were to maxing out storage on the iPod before the update began?

I had the same problem with an earlier release (iOS 15 or 15.1) on my older 32GB iPad. Before the update, I had less than 0.5GB free (plus the space required for actual update).

After the power cycle, I had to delete a few large apps and re-install them manually afterwards. iOS is supposed to delete/re-install apps automatically when there's not enough space to update. The calculation of how much is needed must be off when really short on space...

Thanks for the info will update now

I do not remember clearly, but I THINK that my 32GB iPad was showing almost 1GB of free memory. I do recall being a bit surprised that it was telling me that there was not not enough free memory for the update without temporarily offloading some of the contents to free up space.

Waiting for version of iOS that allows one to add drivers licenses the Wallet app.
