I think ~ it is available here first, in Cali, at 10AM pacific time. So when would it hit you guys?

Looks like I might as well head for bed then ..........it'll be 6:00 pm here. But, hang on, surely they will stagger the release times to limit the load on the servers?. So it's already Wednesday down Australia way so are they d/l it right now?

It's midday, Wednesday 12th here on the east coast of Australia. I downloaded the iTunes upgrade, but can't find anything about iOS5. We'll get it after the US.

I have NO idea why iTunesSetup.exe is going to take an hour, but it is. I'm downloading iTunes 10.5 now as well.

I think my daughters iPod touch is updating now. We updated the iTunes and when her iPod plugged in it started the update right away. This was around 8:30pm. It's been almost 2 hours and it's STILL updating!!

It took me almost an hour - but that was without the iPad connected to the pc. I was surprised it took that long, but I guess it would for 75 mb info!!

I was able to update to iTunes 10.5 on my Dell laptop (XP) and my brand new MacBook Pro :)) but on my desktop, Dell XPS running Vista, it keep failing. (I tried about 5 times.) And unfortunately that is the computer that my iPad1 is synced to at this time!! (It is dying, that is why I just bought the MacBook Pro.) It said if the update failed to download the update only from Tools and manually install. I did that, but when I got to the install part, it looks like a new install of iTunes. I was afraid I would lose everything in my current iTunes if I did that so I canceled. I don't know what to do now.

I wanted to have the MacBook Pro be the computer the iPad syncs to, but got a little nervous when I tried to transfer it and it said it would wipe my iPad. Does that just mean the photos or all the apps and content of the apps too?? I am not technical at all and really am afraid of messing something up. Can I update my iPad on the mac even though it is not the one I normally sync to? I am totally confused about what to do at this point. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
