    Apple users who were quick to download its latest iOS 10 software on Tuesday were subject to a major bug that left devices temporarily useless.
    Not long after the company rolled out its new mobile operating system, some users complained it "bricked" their iPhones and iPads. Bricking refers to an issue that blocks access to your phone with a black screen.


    Users who experienced a failed update were required to plug devices into computers and connect to iTunes to restore the system.

    While the iOS issues are, of course, unexpected, it's always smart to hold off updating new mobile software until Apple works out first iteration kinks. Early adopters tend to find out about software bugs the hard way

    There's an article on cnbc about the 10 most recalled electronics. Apple has about 5 of the 10 on that list.

    i guess it wasn't on cnbc. so i'll have to find it on one of the other websights i read.

    We all know about the antannae issue, the battery issue. the plug issue. And i think this is the second software update issue. Apple hasn't been fairing too good the past few years.

    Google is showing results.

    Seems to have already been addressed and fixed... Go Apple!!!

    "We experienced a brief issue with the software update process, affecting a small number of users during the first hour of availability," an Apple spokesperson told CNNMoney in an emailed statement. "The problem was quickly resolved and we apologize to those customers. Anyone who was affected should connect to iTunes to complete the update or contact AppleCare for help."
