Re: iOS5 is now available to download

Don't think even Apple are going to be able to deal with the demand.

May have to try late tonight!

Re: iOS5 is now available to download

It's such a jump compared to iOS 3 to iOS 4, knowing how many compatible devices we have on our network I reckon this will generate more questions on the forum than 4S will for a good while...

Re: iOS5 is now available to download

there's no greater horror than watching an 'about 17 minutes' message on a software update bar suddenly rise up to 'about 356 hours' - then back down to normal again :smileysurprised:

 

and I haven't even got to the iOS 5 update yet...

At least while I'm waiting I get to move all the spam mail to the thread we allocated for it, they must be bored waiting for the download as well lol :smileyhappy:

Strange, plug into the Mac Air and no problems downloading, 4 minutes left.
Windows 7, crashed about 5 times, been trying over an hour!

Re: iOS5 is now available to download

iOS5 installed but, restoring apps - its dumping them all over the place and not where they were before!! No apps work yet (just get booted out) so, I think another restart will be required at the end. Started @ 18:20.....

Re: iOS5 is now available to download

As I'm trying to attach my Apple ID it's saying the password is incorrect. Skipped that step and am waiting for stuff to restore...
