HT4972 Ios6 update slow

I have a transfer rate of 1.1mb/sec and yet after an hour my update hasn't progressed

Hello:
That is not unusual the first day or two for new releases - especially one that millions of people are downloading. I did mine, but late last night when the traffic was probably lighter.

Is there a fix for the wifi connectivity issue after ios6 update?
Cannot connect to any wifi since update to 6.0.1
How do I get update to 6.0.2?
Will that even help?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Need iOS6 update help

Trying to get iOS6 update on my iPad 2 but Software Updates doesn't show up under Settings>General on my iPad. How do I get the update then?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

How to configure iTunes 11.1 to only download ios6 updates for apps?

Since I will always be running ios6 on my iPhone4 and not ios7, I need to know how to configure iTunes 11.1 to download ios6 updates for my apps in iTunes and remove the ios7 updates that have been downloaded to my mac. How do I do this?

Thanks for the reply.
It's quite a pity that Apple defines what ios "is compatible with my hardware" , since the so called "upgrade" to ios7 on hardware that isn't ready for it, is really a downgrade. It's like putting racing wheels of a Formula 1 car on a common car, it's not a good fit. From what I've read and seen on Apple community websites, ios7 will slow your iPhone4, drain your battery life, make apps startup slower.
And you do pinpoint the problem with Apple nowadays, I choose not to upgrade. I think different. And that's not supported by Apple.
It's either their marketing strategy to force people to upgrade and brick their phones in order to buy new ones or a great lack of relationship management with the customers. Since the issue of so called "ios upgrades" that result in slower performance for older phones seems to be a continious trend for Apple at the moment.

HT4623 iOs6 update does not show up on iPad2.

I am trying to add an application and it requires the iOS6 update. The update is not showing up under my settings.
HELP!

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Your iPad update to iOS 6.0.1, so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

HT201210 I have tried to update to IOS6 and it has prompted me to connect to ITunes but when I do I keep getting the message ' There is no sim card inserted in the Iphone you are trying to activate'. My phone is now locked on the IOS6 update screen!

I have been without mu IPhone 4 since yesterday now as I tried to do the IOS6 update and since then it has messed up my phone and I am unable to access any of it's functions as it is locked on the update screen.
My phone was bought through Vodfone and have been on their network ever since, never had any problems like this.
It prompts me to connect to ITunes and when I do it will not go any further as stating 'No sim card is inserted in the IPhone you are trying to activate'. Well there is a sim in there and I have removed it and reinserted it on many occasions today. I am also not trying to activate my phone as all I did was try to the update which I was prompted to do in my setting!
I have seen many people on the net today with the same or similar problems but as yet I am to find a solution!
Help, please as it is driving me crazy!!!

Try a Hard Reset.....
Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds. Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

I switched off my ipod touch 4g during an ios6 update

it was during the ios6 update that i realised for some reason i did not want to update it because of what my friends told me, it had nothing beneficial for the ipod touch 4g, so i decided to switch off my ipod touch 4g and now it would not turn on the only thing that i could do with it was restart it which i have done over 40 times and it either shows the apple logo and then goes dull or turns blue to yellow, yellow to white, grey to white etcetera.
Can someone please help me i don't know what to do with it i've looked everywhere for a solution.
and my dog bit through the top of my usb lead. **** you bellatrix
thanks, Brittanny Pegg

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IOS6 update : Music app completely lost...

I updated my iPhone 4s last night, this morning I had a brand new OS, everything works fine... except the Music app. When I updated my iPhone, I had iTunes Match enabled showing my whole Library (approx. 6000 songs) everything was fine in iOS5, but after the update, in the Songs tabs, i have the list showing no name, no duration and when I click on one of the blank slots it's not playing anything.
The artists/albums info are the but as soon as I come a t the song level, everything is blank. It's as if I lost part of an XML file containing the last childs...
I tried to
- reboot
- disable itunes match
- disable showing all my songs and then re-download some to re-initialize my library
- sync from iTunes
- delete everything with iTunes using the manually manage songs
- wipe the phone to restore it with my the last backup (done after the iOs6 update)
Nothing is working.....
If any of you have another idea, I will gladly test it...

I'm in the same boat. Went to the Genius Bar at the Apple store with no results. The guy that helped me stated that one of the genius' had the same issue and could not resolve. I'm away from home so I'll have to wait till Monday. Thais is the last time I'll jump on the first day of an update to be on the bleeding edge.

Recently my iPad3 and iPhone5 stopped synching automatically to iCloud. Around the same time I backed them both up to my Macbook Pro and installed the iOS6 update. Any thoughts or help is appreciated!

Recently, I noticed that my iPhone5, iPad 3 and iPod Touch 4th Gen stopped backing up to the iCloud automatically despite ALL of them doing so previously, without a single problem. A few weeks ago I bought a Macbook Pro and I backed up all 3 devices to it a couple times (and they still backed up to the iCloud by themselves without a problem). A few days ago, I noticed that ALL 3 OF THEM stopped backing up to the iCloud automatically. Around the same time, I backed them up to my Mac and I also downloaded the iOS6 update. I'm not sure what is wrong. Has anybody else experienced this type of problem? I'm NOT very familiar with MAC computers as this is my first one and I've been learning a lot as I go. I don't know if I did something in the setting's of iTunes when I backed the devices up that could have caused the decives to stop backing up to the iCloud automatically. I did notice on my previous laptop (a Gateway) and on this one (the MacBook Pro) that on each device, I had to go into "Setting's" on each device and turn the "iCloud Backup" back to the "On" position! That was right after I backed them up to each computer. I attempted to fix it yesterday by adjusting the setting's in iTunes, but nothing worked. If anyone can help, I would sincerely appreciate it. Thank you!!!

Ok, I can try those things this afternoon. I have to leave now and won't be able to try for several hours. I'll let you know how things turn out. Thank you again. Also, I am not sure what DNS Setting's are regarding the router and how to change them. Thank you again for trying to help me with this. One side note. I noticed yesterday on another post regarding this topic, a man said he changed his iCloud email from one to another. I have two. One is and @me.com address and one is an @icloud.com address. I switched them around the other day. One device had @me.com as the one the email one be sent from (I think that was the phone) and I believe the iPad 3 had @iCloud.com as the other. Well, I switched them both to @icloud.com. In the post I mentioned a man said that he did that to his, and it worked. That was a few days ago and this was around the same time I began noticing the devices not synching to iCloud like they should. Right now I have for the iCloud email account (on both the iPhone and the iPad) @iCloud.com as the setting that any emails from that account would be sent from and the @me.com is also turned to the "On" position on both devices. I figured that if I'm sending an email from an iCloud account it should say "@iCloud.com" after it rather than "@me.com" after it. I just did that so everthing was the same on both devices and out of personal preference. No other reason really as I don't ever use the account to email anyone and have never given either address to anyone. Only Apple has them and they sent a couple things initially and I never receive anything on that account (for the most part). Ocasionally I get something from Apple and that's a rarity. I don't know if that may factor in at all or not. It did for one gentleman. Thank you randers4!

How do I get my video playlists back on iPod Touch 4G after (epic fail) iOS6 update

As other users have identified, playlists present on iTunes on laptop but not on iPod touch 4G after iOS6 update except when select edit. Can I get them back? Not wasting time messing around. Either this is easily sortable or I get a new player from another maunfacturer - seems Apple can't be bothered to sort these issues so not sure I can be bothered with Apple anymore.

I have seen so much response about the Mountain Lion update slowing down computers. I am updating from Mac OS x 10.6.8. What can I do to ensure the upgrade will go fine? Do I unplug my external hard drive before installing, or keep it plugged in?

I have seen so much response about the Mountain Lion update slowing down computers. I am updating from Mac OS x 10.6.8. What can I do to ensure the upgrade will go fine? Do I unplug my external hard drive before installing, or keep it plugged in?
Also, I have the 08 version of iWork. Will this cause problems for the update? Can I update this AFTER I update the processor?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
There's no reason to think that Mountain Lion will slow down your Mac. Just make a backup of your data before upgrading with Time Machine > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
Also, check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com Upgrade them to a compatible version or delete them before upgrading.
The external drive won't make the OS X Mountain Lion installer fail, but it's better to unplug it during the upgrade.
iWork '08 is compatible with Mountain Lion. iWork '09 includes OS X Mountain Lion features and can be purchased at the Mac App Store.
To upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, I recommend at least 4 GB of RAM. You can check how much memory you have in Apple menu > About this Mac
