Wrong iOS Version Showing Up in Software Update? Here’s the Fix
Have you ever checked for an iOS update and discovered the wrong version is showing up to install? Typically this happens when a new iOS update version becomes available, but the Software Update section of the iOS Settings app displays an older now outdated version as available to install on the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. If you run into this situation with an iOS update showing an incorrect version available, the solution to show the proper latest update available is quite simple.
Some users are experienced this exact issue with the iOS 9.0.1 update, where Software Update offers an iOS 9 update instead of the latest version – in this case, it’s usually because they’re running the iOS 9 GM release from the beta program. Regardless, the solution is the same.
