As per title all have been released.
If you are running a GM/Beta of iOS 5 then you need to restore in iTunes and install the official version as iOS 5 GM expires 30 Nov after which you will start to have problems.
iCloud is now released and you can migrate your MobileMe account across. Here is how if you are unsure
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=17330
If you are running a GM/Beta of 10.7.2 then you need to use the reversioner that came with your version to go back to 10.7.1 before updating.
Aperture 3 update is only available once you have gone to 10.7.2

Too tired now, going to have a play tommorow after work. Although hopefully my 4 will be sold sooner rather than later
Cheers Carl :happy2:

Christ, what next?! Apple employee scratches his own arse?
I've got to ask Carl, why do you insist on posting every single tiny bit of Apple news? And before you say I don't have to read it, a thread already exists about iOS5. Any other thread duplications would be deleted...
-
Is anyone else having issues updating? I've had an error message twice, my friend has also had the same message (different comps).
Help please :signLOL:

Andrew,
What is your problem? Are you on Japanese Flag week or something :stupid: As you said you don't have to read it!
I post up about updates and that's it. Hardly every single bit of Apple news is it. Nothing like over exaggerating eh!
The reason I posted this thread was to alert people to the updates AND make them aware if they are running Betas (as I know a few are) that they need to go to the official release otherwise they will have problems after the expiry date. Which I'm sure a few on here didn't know. I also posted in the iOS release time thread but as with anything information can easily get lost in a thread so I put all the relevant information in one post.
I didn't know, nor can I find it in the rules anywhere, that I'm not allowed to post about Apple updates in the Random Chat section.
Just because YOU don't find it useful others might. I never saw you complain when I used to post up RNS510 firmware updates.
If it really bothers you that much I suggest you do two things, ignore my posts and find something to fulfill your life as you obviously have nothing better to do if your worried about this. :P
-
Yeah my iphone 4 wont update either :-(
-
Is anyone else having issues updating? I've had an error message twice, my friend has also had the same message (different comps).
Help please :signLOL:
Careful,
Andrew will be asking why you want help with Apple stuff as its not GTi related :laugh:
The problem will be the servers timing out. Or are you having problems applying the update to the iPhone?
-
The problem is applying the update to the phone. I've just read on Twitter that turning the phone on and off solves it. I'll try this after the third try.
-
My phone syncs and backs up then extracts the update then phone reboots into recovery mode (itunes icon with usb lead on screen) then says attemptung to restore on itunes then error itunes cannot restore etc
-
OK so Error 3200 is a big issue now, Apple can't handle all the requests.

Getting exactly the same error when trying to upgrade my iPhone 4. :sad1:
-
I've just tried for the 6th time, it seems to be working.
-
As is said it's just down to the Servers. Persevere and it will eventually go through :happy2:
-
Going to wait until tomorrow now as the mouse in my BT Wi-Fi router is a bit tired today! :laugh:
-
6th attempt and no success :sad:
-
My phone was fine.
My iPad took 2 attempts ( i waited 10 mins between each one) to go through but is now working away :happy2:
-
Ive downloaded both iPhone and iPad updates.
My iPhone one failed 3 times after extracting the download etc.
Im updating my macbook for the moment, and will then try my iPad instead.
At least I have the downloads, so the lengthy part is done I guess!!
Glad its not just be with the error though!!
-
Been trying all night with no joy :-(
-
mine works after a few attempts and im very impressed! :happy2:
-
I just tried twice and got the 3259 error. Network connection error when the update is 99% downloaded :sad1:
Will try once more then tomorrow.
-
Phone finally done!
Just the iPad now......
-
Deleted the backup, created a new one and restarted the phone. No problems now :happy2:
-
20 mins to go before the download for iPhone is complete.
Wish I was still in B'mouth - had 20-meg BB then. Contending with a 2-meg connection here! :sad1:
-
it killed my phone after back up would not load up and now just wants me to connect to iTunes to re do it again :rolleye: but then says no server :fighting: :rolleye:
-
Firewall issue. This is what I hate about gaytunes. You have to disable your firewall/
-
i am on a macbook pro
-
Mines all done, however it's seems to have wiped all my apps after the restore, will it upload all this again?
-
Finally done it, wireless syncing is so cool. However one song refuses to transfer. It says 'iPhone cannot play this song', so it won't sync it. Help please.
-
Mine's just reloading the apps.
-
Finally managed to get it to update :happy2: No luck via the auto update in iTunes though but downloaded the IPSW file and did a manual restore.
Just waiting for it to reload my 163 apps now.
-
Gah. Updated it to iOS5 but it crashed when trying to select/deselect cloud and it didn't restore my apps :fighting:
-
Damn setup!!! Mine also stuck at the icloud selection stage :fighting2:
-
Mine has timed out 6-7 times :sad1:... Can't be bothered to keep trying! Got to be up at 5:30am :indifferent:
-
I've been up and running. Currently downloading all my songs again from itunes. Lost them when my laptop went and then used my netbook.
Lots of changes for the sake of change eg green send button in text, round toggle buttons in menus.
-
what are the updates for aperture 3?

....Thanks, Carl :drinking:
The detail is much appreciated especially as I'm not running on Lion yet and I think you posted earlier that to get to Aperrture 3.2 you had to be on Mac OS 10.7 but the detail says: "The update is recommended for all users of Aperture 3". The update option isn't showing when I run Software Update though :confused:
-
As I said you need to be on 10.7.2 or you won't get the update :happy2:
-
anyone with 'me' managed to transfer it over to icloud yet? fails everytime for me :fighting:
its annoying as I have managed to wipe the contacts from my iphone last night after multiple attempts to install the software and now it won't sync with those on 'me'.
and finally where is this imessage service? is there a new app as I cant see it??
-
I think they are limiting migration due to high demand.

Its built into messages, if you know that someone else is running ios5 - it will say imessage in the text box before you type :wink:
-
Migration is taking time due to high volume of people trying.
The iMessage is the text message. If you msg another iPhone on iOS 5 then it automatically changes to iMessage and the message bubble turns blue and says iMessage above.
-
Finally got iphone and ipad updated after about 6 hrs of "internal error (3200) cannot restore"
Update seems ok... iphone seems a bit quicker now.
I like:
Notifications
being able to change email tone
adding webpages to reading list so i can easily view them on my ipad without having to research or email myself the link
split keyboard on ipad
gestures on ipad
I love:
photostream. no longer have to email across pics i take on iphone.
I hate:
photostream!! apple seemed to forget to include a delete button! So i now have 10 crap photos of my wall where i was testing the syncing last night, that I cannot delete..and if you mate sends you a photo of a monkeys ar$e... yep that gets put into photostream aswell and you cant delete it!
-
Has anyone received a shipping email from Apple yet for 4s??? Do we think they will be delivered tomorrow or shipped tomorrow?
-
Mine is being processed but judging by macrumors forum, they all seem to be getting shipped today with delivery for tomorrow. Apparently the system is a little slow updating with many stuck at processing but general consensus is any saying dispatched by 14th will be sent today for delivery tomorrow
-

Mine was shipped an hr ago. Says I'll receive on or before the 14th :drinking:

Mine still says "preparing for shipment" :sad1:
-
systems seem slow. I have another order which is still preparing for shipment but when i put in the order number at http://www.ups.com/tracking/tracking.html (select track by reference and put order number in -starts with W and click track) it comes up the same as my other order which I suspect means it's also shipped :party:
2 other couriers are being used so may not work for you?

Is the new 'Tab' feature in Safari supposed to work on the iPhone too?

Is the new 'Tab' feature in Safari supposed to work on the iPhone too?
i dont think so... it only seems to do it on my ipad
-
I'm loving all the new features. However there is a downside. The new ios features on the ipad like apple tv mirroring might have just tipped me over the edge and I want an iPad now! GF is going to kill me! :fighting:
-
I-Cloud is very annoying as me and the wife both have I-Phones and we both connect to I-Tunes but now we both have each others contacts on each others phones as well as our own contacts,so i went into I-Cloud settings and switched off the contacts and it says delete the previous contacts from I-Tunes so i did and now i have lost lots of numbers or the names have gone and I'm trying to go through my text messages to figure out who's who :stupid:

That's funny, because so do my wife and I but we log in under different logins - but the same iTunes, no such problems. I was going o say how good it was.
If I were you I would reinstate rom the last back up. Are you logged in under if fervent names, I'm presuming not, so you'll have to create a new ID.

Anyone put ios 5 on a 3GS? Does the phone run slower?
Andy
-
I have it on 3GS and there's a detectable lag - mainly when typing or playing games.
Think I'll turn it back to iOS4.

Christ, what next?! Apple employee scratches his own arse?
I've got to ask Carl, why do you insist on posting every single tiny bit of Apple news? And before you say I don't have to read it, a thread already exists about iOS5. Any other thread duplications would be deleted...
What? Have you got problems bud?
If it wasn't for Carl I certainly wouldn't know when most updates are available or what to do with them. The guy does nothing but help people, and I for one know that I don't need to worry at all, when it comes to any problems with apple products etc, cos Carl is there to help me out.
It's great knowing that any apple updates are posted on forum by Carl, its one of the internet sites i visit the most, and I don't have to search elsewhere.
If you don't like Carl helping others that's fine, but please don't spoil it for others.
:wink:
-
Theres me saying how good icloud is, and ive now downloaded it on my work computer - so I know have it on my phone, my pad and my work computer, and in its cleverness its duplicated all my calender notes 3 x!! Ive spoken to apple support and they say its a known problem, and they are working on a fix, so be careful bfore you merge

It's nothing personal, there just seems to be an emergence of duplicate threads. Like I said, there is already an iOS5 thread, so why start another?
Although I am a Mac user I'm not particularly interested in the threads most of the time. I've sat in front of the damned things most of my life, so reading about incremental OS upgrades is the last thing I want to see when I'm getting my car fix :grin:
-

There is a small lag, but you can definitely live with it. The internet loading is quicker as well.
-
Upgraded and migrated to iCloud... no issues thus far. :happy2:

....All you have to do, my friend, is not read any threads with Mac in its title and unsubscribe from this thread. Actually, does this site offer an option to unsubscribe from specific threads? - If not, it should do!
On topic, like Mac OS 10.7, I'm waiting for things to settle down and, most importantly, for some third-party developers to catch up. I don't need what iCloud has to offer as I don't network with other people. Keep up the good work, Carl - It's appreciated.
-

This is not just an iOS 5 thread though as per the title :stupid:
So i don't see what your problem is apart from that it must be Jap flag week and your a little hormonal :grin:
-
iCloud isn't about networking. It's about being able to sync all your contacts/calendars and info between your macs/ iDevices. If you have an iPhone and a few macs it is very very handy. :-)
-

I read the forum, my friend, via the Show Unread Posts page. Like I said, I don't mind Mac-related posts (though there are rather a lot of them), it's more when topics are covered in multiple threads. It doesn't make sense, neither for people who are uninterested, or for people who want to keep up-to-date with the information.
-
So i don't see what your problem is apart from that it must be Jap flag week and your a little hormonal :grin:
You'll have to explain that because I really don't know what you're talking about...

If you have an issue with something i have written fine BUT make it a genuine issue and not a personal preference.
You have stated that i should have just put this info in the iOS 5 thread. Well i put some of it in regarding iOS 5 but OS X 10.7.2 and Aperture 3 aren't available as part of iOS 5 last i looked. So they would be pretty pointless in there and would get lost. So i decided to collectively post the relevant information about all the latest updates and what people needed to be wary of in one thread.
This is a Random chat section. I read the forum via the show unread posts link. If something is of no interest to me then i don't read it. Simples. I don't go in every thread trying to be sarcastic just because it's not something i want to read.
You say i keep posting everything about Apple. Well if you can list all the posts i have done in the last 6 months about Apple, other than software updates then i shall be intrigued. To my mind i did 2. One was a link to a rumour round up for the proposed iPhone 5 and one was about Steve Job's autobiography sales going through the roof.
You are not a Moderator or an Admin on here. None of the mods have complained at any of the threads i have started. Some, as you can see from a few replies in this thread, find the information useful. So i don't see what i am doing wrong.
Now I'm not particularly fussed what you think. If you have a problem with something i write then either PM me or report it to a Moderator and don't clog up what will be a useful thread to others.

Thanks Robin :happy2:

Like I said Carl, this isn't personal, but for me this forum is kind of losing it's identity as a car forum, largely because of the technology related threads.
In an ideal world we'd have a separate board for that kind of thing and under your user preferences you'd be able to opt-in or out.
Anyway, enough said on the subject. Carry on :happy2:
-
We're all human and have different/varying interests. But if we have a common interest in cars, we're bound to have common interests in other things. I see nothing wrong with talking about cameras, photography etc.
Just be happy we've managed to avoid an Apple subforum! :grin:
-
iCloud isn't about networking. It's about being able to sync all your contacts/calendars and info between your macs/ iDevices. If you have an iPhone and a few macs it is very very handy. :-)
....No, you're right, Rich. I just have one Mac (which I keep up to date) and one iPad which is primarily used as a control surface for Logic and virtual instruments and no email and very little else <-- Says he who has just loaded a few pics on it to show off when away from home and who keeps his calendar on it for obvious reasons.
Having iCloud sync is fine but it already auto syncs when I connect. I don't want everything syncing whether I want it to or not.
-
.
Nuff said probably, but isn't the Random Chat section for just that? - Random Chat about anything and everything. It's where we find we have other things in common. Which reminds me I ought to post some more pics in VAG Babes.

Come on fella's enough is enough.
Andrew can I kindly ask that you avoid this type of thread in the future if it bothers you so much. I can understand your viewpoint but you may find many others do not.
And Carl please don't rise to it, I and the majority of people on this forum are very appreciative of the information and help you provide and I'm sure I can speak for the rest of the admin team when I say we are happy for this to continue.

None at all mate! Like I said, I'm just expressing my views as to what sort of content I like to see on the site and I do feel it has been Apple-heavy recently. I admit there are probably better ways I could have done it (I blame severe lack of sleep this week). Ultimately the majority are happy and I'm grown up enough to accept that.
So crack on :drinking:

ive got a new laptop so had to download a new itunes to get the latest software of which ive downloaded and v.impressed with
the phone backed itself up and i have all my contacts msgs and photos etc but ive lost my music (i expected this) and all my apps, is there anyway i can get my apps back or do i just need to get them again??
will i have to pay for the ones ive already paid for again??
any help is much appreciated
cheers
-
Music can be redownloaded from the phone. I went into iTunes on my 3GS and was able to download all the music I originally purchased.
-
Any apps and now music that you have paid for can be re downloaded free of charge.
When you go into the app store or iTunes on the phone there is a purchased section. Tap that and that will take you to everything you have purchased and you can re download from there. :happy2:
-
cheers for the fast replies

How do you permanently delete pictures in photo stream ?

Robin..... How long have you have the RED (retired....etc) on your signature???
I saw that movie before it hit the cinemas in the UK and back then when I first heard the title, I thought of you straight away. :grin: :laugh: :grin:
Love it Robin!
It's even on your plate.

Turn it off. That's the only way to delete them all. Then reactivate it.
However they will disappear after 30 days apparently

we really appreciate your posts & support info :happy2:
i've stuck with my 3GS for the last two years, and have had NO issues I might add, but might consider upgrade next year - i thought there was gonna be a 5 on the horizon ... any news on that??

Had the RED = Retired and Extremely Dangerous since I heard Helen Mirren say it recently. Haven't seen the movie I think you're referring to.
RedRobin is also my music name: http://www.myspace.com/redrobinmusic

I would've thought Retired and Extremely Deviant would be more fitting. :wink:

Updated my iPad just now to iOS 5.
Took only 7 minutes to download... 8 minutes to Back-up and Install... About another 5 minutes to run through the personal setup. No problems whatsoever.
I spoke to Apple earlier today and the initial hiccups folks were experiencing had been solved.
I'm glad I waited. :happy2:
