The final version of iOS 9.3.2 for compatible iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices was released back on May 19. But, this latest software update turned out to be bad news for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro devices.
Those 9.7-inch iPad Pro users who tried to install iOS 9.3.2 on their devices were met with an “Error 56” popup message, which bricked the device. Apple’s official support document states the error to be hardware related, and there are no other details available. Apple’s suggested fix, which involved restoring the device twice, didn’t work either and resulted in Apple telling its customers to contact Apple Support.
As a result of all this messed created by the software update, Apple had to pull the iOS 9.3.2 software update for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro model and stated that a fix was on the way.
Now Apple has finally pushed a fix for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro owners by releasing a new revision of iOS 9.3.2 for the 9.7-inch iPad Pro devices. This latest iOS 9.3.2 revision carries a build number 13F72. You can install this latest build as an Over-the-Air update on your 9.7-inch iPad Pro if you iPad was not updated to the latest software version.
