Happened to me on iPad. I went to beta.apple.com and downloaded the profile again just so I could delete it before attempting the upgrade.
Okay, thanks
My iPad and MacBook Pro are syncing fine.
My iPhone has no contacts, calendars, reminders
All is safe in www.icloud.com
Apple have admitted there is a problem with the server & that the engineers are working on it and I will be phoned back tomorrow or Saturday (UK).
He said that Apple iCloud has about three backups servers but he wasn't sure, one in US & a backup in Europe.
So data is safe
Hey,
i cant finish that step, because the update button is grey and i can not push/chose the ipsw file
same sprocedure when i'm in DFU.
Any Ideas ?
For everyone who wants to downgrade from iOS 9.1 to 9 and only has a 9.1 backup simply change the Info.plist "Product Version" to 9.0 in ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/<latest_backup>. Then open iTunes and you should be able to restore from that backup, worked for me
I can confirm that this worked flawlessly for me!
Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Hmm,
I used the method from post #117 to downgrade my iPhone from PB 9.1 to iOS 9 final.
Everything seems to work okay with one exception: Using iTunes 12.3 I am not able to sync music to my device. iTunes starts syncing an finishes without an error but the music files are not copied to the phone. If i look up the music on my phone the new files are there but they are greyed out.
Did anyone encounter this or has a solution perhaps?

I used same method and worked but iPhone won't sync with iCloud (will backup)
Tried resetting as new device and restore still won't sync.
I know that there is 3rd party software to extract the settings.
It's damage limitation for me, any advice appreciated.

OK. After I did a full DFU reset and loaded my last backup it's working again... Perhaps there really was some backup after the downgrade I did before. No problem with iCloud backup btw. It didn't work on the betas for me but on the final version it's working again.
The EASY way to do is in iTunes via recovery mode (holding down home button) while connected via USB. Do Update instead of Restore to preserve all data
I did this yesterday. Awesome on Apple's part to set it up this way. Much easier than having to restore the backup.
I did the update via DFU mode and iTunes, and I'm back on 9.0.1. However, not every pictures and videos were downloaded to the phone. Right now I only have 4878 pictures, and 116 videos. While on my iPad and Mac I have 8751 pictures and 366 videos!
My iPhone is actually uploading all 4878 pictures again. Luckily, the only difference I've experienced on my iPad is some images that I manually changed the date on, have been reuploaded (so that I have two duplicates with different dates).
Hopefully, after my iPhone is finished "uploading" all the pictures, it will download the remaining. But I have to admit, I'm almost panicking (thankfully I still have my pictures and videos backed up in both iCloud and Dropbox).

After several hours, it seems that everything is alright. After it uploaded all 4878 photos, it downloaded the rest. The only bug I can find now is that old videos I recorded on a camera I bought back in 2006 is no longer supported and can not be played. However, on my mac and iPad, those work fine.
This was the first and last time I will ever try a beta software.

so you just go into DFU mode, click update NOT restore, and you dont lose any data/songs/pics at all this way???
First I took a backup to iTunes incase **** hit the fan. Then I removed my beta profile, went into DFY mode and updated. I didn't lose anything, no. But somehow it took hours to get all my photos back. But all my files are still here, I haven't lost anything.
The only two problems I have seen so far is video playback of old videos are not supported (supported on my iPad) and iCloud backup is slow. I have to do it manually, and it fails several times. But I experience that on my iPad as well, and I didn't try any beta software on that. So I guess it's an iOS 9 issue.
