Apple Intelligence brings incredible new features across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
I did make an update to iOS 18.1 last night, downloaded Apple Intelligence successfully but it still stuck on "Preparing" status for like 10 hrs. Is there anyone know how to fix and make it work? Im desparate....

My M3 Max MacBook Pro has been stuck on Preparing... for weeks. Trying the solutions here hasn't worked for me yet, but I did notice that while choosing voices, some of them will download for me, like Premium Zoe, but none of the Siri voices will start downloading. They are all stuck at Zero KB, even though I am connected to a very fast WiFi network. I have a feeling that whatever is keeping the voices from downloading is holding up "Apple Intelligence."
Do you use a VPN on your Mac? If yes, turn it off and see if the download works.
Doesn't work on my Mac.
of course the public one, it still stuck after 1 and a half days.
Btw this is the public release version I’m trying to install.
Connect with an wi-fi networks,i just did and it’s working
It is now working after some minor download of some features for Siri. What I did is switch to other language region and back to US. Then it is ok. Make sure your internet connection is ok.
Almost 9 hours it was stuck in preparing. I rebooted the phone and connected with WiFi, now downloading started
I’ve been waiting for over 5 days now still the same issue
This actually worked. I tried all of the suggestions and switching the language worked. I have the 16 pro max too
is it work on personal hotspot?
You have to be connected to a WiFi network for it to work download.
Note to everyone, in the screenshot, it's clearly connected to Wifi.
This fix was what finally got things working for me.
same suitation to me
What is battery saver? I don’t see anything in battery settings with that name.
Apple Intelligence stuck on "Preparing" status for more than 10 hours
