Hi, Jjust tried to update from software update and it says that the update failed for some reason. Maybe too many people are trying to download it but it could also be something on our WIFI network I guess.

I personally wouldn't hesitate updating to 9.0. Also I know that others disagree but I've never had any trouble updating without resetting the network settings. I highly doubt that Apple recommends this. It comes from a person who does a weekly Apple podcast. It doesn't hurt anything though.
