Apple apologises for iOS 8 update bug
Apple has apologised after an update to its mobile operating system left some owners of its new iPhones unable to make or receive calls.
Users who had installed iOS 8.0.1 on the iPhone 6 models also complained it had caused problems for the handsets' Touch ID fingerprint facility.
The update had been released less than a week after the phones had gone on sale in order to fix other issues.
Apple said it was working on a new version.
"We have a workaround for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users who lost cellular service and Touch ID functionality today after updating to iOS 8.0.1," it said.
"Affected users can reinstall iOS 8 through iTunes... and are working around the clock to prepare iOS 8.0.2 with a fix for the issue, and will release it as soon as it is ready in the next few days."
The mistake comes at a time when Apple has suffered a series of setbacks.
