The last update deleted a couple of ringtones I had purchased.

You're lucky because it hasn't been that way for everyone. A lot depends on the model you own. The older it is, the greater chance for problems.

I have an iPhone 6, but never had any download problems with my iPhone 4 or 5 either.

Thanks for the thread, hulagirl!

Everyone: Back up your device before installing any updates.

I connected my iPad 3 to my Mac, did a backup and then installed the new software directly from iTunes. Start to finish, about 12 minutes.

Release notes:

"iOS 8.1.2

This release includes bug fixes and addresses a problem where ringtones purchased through the iTunes Store may have been removed from your device. To restore these ringtones, visit itunes.com/restore-tones from your iOS device.

That's probably the extent of any "heavy lifting" I'll do today!

You're welcome, hulagirl!
