Restore from backup right?

Yes. And the step after will be to re-sync you apps and content; which is why it asked if you wanted to transfer/copy apps as the first step. It should do each of these steps automatically (with a reboot in between each), with no more than a dialog asking if you want to continue.


Edit. Just noticed the times. This is probably way too late to do you any good. Hope it all worked out for you.

Ok everybody thank you all so much. It took forever and it was kinda scary...but I did it!!! So far so good! Now I just hope everything still works good when I hook it up to my Alesis io dock. I've heard some bad stuff about ios5 and the io dock. Again thanx everybody!!

Glad it worked. I'm not familiar with the Alesis dock, but all of my peripherals worked fine after the update.
