I'm changing the thread from "Just Joined" hoping to get a few more replies about my specific question. Moderator please remove the old thread. We are wanting to update to IOS5 on our ATT 32g WiFi 3G IPad2. This device has IOS Ver 4.3.5 running on it and is operating perfectly. I have been reading on this forum and other similar sites about IOS5. It seems as though there are many failures either during or after the update. The device has 24 gig free. I have read the advice on performing the update:
Latest ITunes on laptop
Plug Ipad2 (using original cable) into laptop
Use laptop plugged into router directly instead of wifi if possible
Everything fully charged up
Of course Ipad2 recently backed up
We think we would enjoy the additions in IOS 5 but sure don't want to make a doorstop out of a perfectly working Ipad2. Should we wait for a few more weeks for any remaining bugs to be removed from the base ver 5.0? Please let me know what you guys think....
