I can't thank you enough, Geoff, I thought I was going to have to live with this forever more!

I'm glad I could help. I was having the trouble on and off for months and it was driving me nuts. Since it took me a while to find a fix I thought I'd try and help as many people as possible hence the tutorial. Obviously it would be good if Apple fixed the issue but as it's still not fixed in IOS 5.1 a tutorial was in order

Cheers
Geoff

Wow thanks so much! I've been going back and forth with Apple customer service about this problem, who in the end told me to take the iPad to the genius bar. It totally worked.
