Awesome! Just installed it on all 5 iOS devices in my home.
I working on the install for 6 iOS devices. 4 iPhones and 2 iPads
Ohh! There’s a Watch OS 2.1 update as well 🙂
iPad min4, MBP, and iPhone 6……no issues, about 15 minutes….
You installed iOS 9.2 on a MBP? 😛
Never mind. I just saw that OS X updates just came out too. Lol
Features I am looking for:
1 The ability to make Beats disappear.
2 the ability to make Apple Music disappear.
3 a return to a useable UI instead of the fucked up mess currently passing as iTunes.
4 consistent metadata editing.
5 a button to retroactively cancel the waste of $3 Billion on Beats.
6 a button to fire Eddie Cue.
I love the Mac iTunes app exactly the way it is. It’s been perfect ever since they updated it to this format a year or so ago. If you don’t think so it’s likely because you just don’t understand the navigation, which is more organized and effective than I’ve seen in iTunes ever before.
You have got to be kidding. iTunes 12 is unmitigated interface tragedy.
No, it’s perfect, you must just prefer cluttered garbage. I love how perfectly organized iTunes is. You’re just technologically handicapped.
gotta go with Mac User on this one. I hate the new iTunes look. Most people i know tolerate it … definitely do not love it. The old sidebar on a big iMac screen was super handy to see everything. I guess you must be a music renter to appreciate not being able to have a nice list of your playlists nicely displayed in a clear list.
We are not the only people who hate what Apple is doing to its formerly useful software interfaces.

You can still have the sidebar, toggle it from the view menu.
Can’t trust wifi updates any more. 9.1 wifi update hosed my iPhone 6 Plus.
How about not making me use my password because I have not used it in 48 hours when I used it 4 hours ago.
Yeah. That goofy “2 days have gone by in just 4 hours!” bug does not inspire confidence.
Sure would be nice to have page layout restored in Pages. Otherwise, it’s not really pages…just words.
Drives me nuts. We can land a rover on Mars and fly a robotic probe past Pluto but Apple can’t bring back features we had in Pages `09.
It’s insane. Microsoft Word does pages, but Pages doesn’t. I guess words don’t mean what they used to. Or they’re just empty.
Support for the USB camera connection kit is huge for pro photographers. Now I can email proofs on the road without an iPad.
