Apple has released a new update, iOS 7.1.1

I was online at my banking site & they had this info which said they recommend you upgrade to avoid potential security risks. Includes an important security update for devices such as iPhones and iPads.

I usually get an email on my iPad...have not received one yet on this update so I will wait for it.

I never get an email about the updates. I always read about them on the board. I had not seen anything about this update yet. After I saw it on my banking site I went into settings & update & it was there to update so I updated it.

Thanks! I went to settings and there it was. Last time I guess I never knew about it and they email you on your account if you put it off. I down loaded it!

The update was issued last week. There was a thread here about it on the day to was released. Not only iPad and iPhone update available, but apple also issued an update for mavericks on computers, Apple TV had an update, and AirPort Extreme (apple wireless router).

Apple usually doesn't send notification that an update is available until traffic on their servers dies down a bit so they can handle the load. Those who follow tech news will often update as soon as it's released which keeps the servers busy for a few days.

I usually wait a few hours to see if there's any major problems with an update before installing it on my devices.

I think I heard on the news last night some people were having trouble with it. It was wiping out photos and contacts. I haven't done mine yet

Two iPhones and an iPad updated without any problem. As long as you have a backup on either iCloud or iTunes there is no reason to wait.
