    Mmmm.

    My 3GS just crashed twice in the last five minutes. Both times when I opened a new window in safari. Phone completely crashed, black screen and rebooted.

    Never happened before. Hope it's not a sign of things to come!

    I am finding the home button unresponsive at times on both the iphone 4 and the ipad 2 since installing IOS5. It was something i had a problem with running 4.3.3 on the iphone but 4.3.5 seemed to sort it out. Now its back again.

    I find that its very hard to double press to close apps etc. but if you lock/unlock the phone the home button works fine again straight away.........for a while anyway.

    I finally download ISO5 this morning onto my iphone 4 and seems to be working prefectly expect for 1 item.

    The quick link to the Camera is not appear on my locked screen??
    Once I access the camera via the normal way I'm able to take pictures via the volumne buttons etc.

    Is there some setting I need to change? Looked throughout Settings and couldn't see anything...

    Thanks

    just happening on my phone, its nearly impossible to open multi-tasking as double clicking is a no go, i've restored it again to iOS 5 but still the same thing, i have to press so hard on the button i'm worried about breaking it. I hope its just a software glitch and not my actual phone

    Did anyone else notice that the digital zoom function is gone on the camera since the update?

    It's still there for me on my 3GS. Are you doing the pinching gesture to bring it up?

    I don't think it's gone....just pinch the screen before taking a picture and it shows up.

    I was trying to update my friends iPhone4 to IOS5 and I got "Error -23" in iTunes. Any help will be much appreciated :confused:

    Took the plunge myself a couple of hours ago. Went without any major hitch, the only thing I lost was my saved e-mails but that's nothing - anything saved on there was on my laptop too.

    I upgraded to IOS 5 on Thursday on a 3gs. After I did all my music and ringtones were gone from my phone. Was able to retrieve my purchased music from itunes, but am unable to sync my other music from itunes on my laptop to my phone. Am getting only a restore option on the iphone page and when I do this, no music. Please help!! Any suggestions?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4 donb


    BTW I forgot to point out that I am stuck in the 'Set up your iphone page' in itunes. The only option itunes gives me is to restore. Any suggestions?

    this happened me too, (ip4) every-time for about 2 days when i tried to sync nothing was happening and then i realised none of my music was on my phone despite itunes saying 14gb was used! (i have 10gb of music)

    when i plugged my phone via cable into my laptop it kept asking me to restore, when i restored errors occured, only yesterday did it restore without error and now my music is back and wifi sync is working.

    funny thing is i was able to create a back up before restoring so at least all my ios5 option choices were saved and reapplied.also my phone (other then syncing and music) was working perfectly! i had my contacts and everything:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,199 ✭✭✭G-Money


    The wireless sync seems quite slow for me but at least it's working. I'm using a 3GS.

    Anyone else noticed this? And any way to speed it up?

    Tried to update an iPhone 4 to iOS5 but keep getting a 3194 error? Any ideas?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Spotted a problem today when I went to play some music. Some songs won't play at all, other times it plays the wrong one. I suppose I'll have to delete everything and sync again.

    Has the option to FaceTime been removed if you start a normal call? Used to be that the FaceTime icon would have a ? in it, now it's just a black FaceTime icon. :confused:

    I can still initiate a FaceTime call from the contacts app.

    Since downloading ios5 I've had only 2 problems, iphone 4 I'm on Meteor pre pay phone bought directly from apple..

    1st is it never backed up my bleeding contacts so i literally lost all of my numbers and
    2nd is that I've been getting: "Not enough credit - cannot deliver message to 447786205094 (MsgId 1056876584)" text messages. Luckily I have no credit because I don't know that number or what it's trying to send. Does anybody know or have they seen this number anywhere?

    Cheers Dean.

    Spotted this myself. When you choose OK to activate FaceTime it sends a text to that number in order to activate it.

    I'm having issues downloading Apps or App updates on my iPad 2 since yesterday. They are just hanging on 'waiting..' I've deleted them and tried to reinstall. I've also done a soft reset. No problems on iPhone 4. Anyone any ideas?

    I upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS5 yesterday, and when I restored from backup (on my Win7 PC) I had no messages, no photos, and no contacts.

    I have been able to restore all of my apps and their data - but none of the above.

    I did a full backup before the update, as there had been a lot of horror stories from people, and I wanted to be extra careful.

    I downloaded the iOS5 file on it's own and did a clean install, rather than an update and then restored from the backup I did just before installing iOS5.

    I've located the backup file in Windows explorer, and can manually open all the photos and the messages/contacts all seem to be there too.

    I think the backup somehow may have been corrupted - can anyone help please? I'm at my wits end here....:(
