Had the same experience in both ipad and iphone......annoying, but hardly an issue. Overall seemed very easy

Loved this....especially the poster on page one that took 40 ministers to be able to upgrade. That was a pleasant chuckle. Had a mental pic of them all crowded around praying.

I updated 2 iPhone 4 and an IPad with no issues ( few error messages during back up caused by server over load). The process took about 1 hour and half. I can say that this is Apple's best IOS .

I just upgraded my ipad2 in about 30 minutes total. No errors and no problems so far. However, I don't see any new features yet that I couldn't live without. I do like the tabs feature in safari.

I started with my iPhone. It went smoothly and took about 30 minutes (after upgrading iTunes). My only question/comment is why did it load some 650+ pieces of email already deleted? On to my iPad2!

I started a 1pm EDT but didn't finish until around 11pm that night. This was only due to errors caused by massive server traffic. Once it was done though there have been no problems.

I had no problems either, on ipad2 and iphone4. I had to download new iTunes but after that it took about 40 minutes each device for downloading, installing, iCloud eg...
Done from my Acer touchscreen PC on our home wifi.

Flawless up date here as well.
Carefully updated iTunes and did back up then iOS 5.
Only lost my down loaded bbc iview episodes.
So no biggie.
Now working out what is new and different.
Great stuff
Feel very pleased with myself

All was good for me also.

iPad took around 4 hours mostly du to a slow download in the evening
The iPhone took around an hour. Download speed was way faster this time.
AppleTV, it took 30 minutes.

Only "glitch" was on the iPhone where I had to manually re-sync my apps as oppose to the iPad where it was done automatically.

Oh yeah, I had 1 app that could not be reinstalled on the iPad. It was Marathon but I did not even bother to investigate.

VicoPad addict!

I started at 4:30pm yesterday and was finished by 6:30pm. No problems other than not connecting my USB sync cable directly into my PC. Used a USB hub and had a hardware error - but soon figured it out. Love this new operating system. Everything restored beautifully. :)

Didn't take long for me to download. absolutely love the new features, gestures, the split keyboard. But I don't have many friends that have an iPad/iPod to use the find my friends app. I've used it with my wife, but she was sitting next to me, lol.
