If you can't update then wait until you get back home.
IOS 5 is a fine operating system in the meantime.

I just downloaded ios5 to my iPhone 3gs but nothing has changed ... i don't have a notification centre or anything ! help please !! :(

I just downloaded ios5 to my iPhone 3gs but nothing has changed i have no notification center or anything help!

Hi,
Just updated Mac with Lion Recovery and Mac OSX update, then updated my iPhone 3Gs with V5 software. Here is a screen shot of my notification center.
Have to say all went extremely smoothly along with a few cups of coffee, only thing that happened was after I hooked up to iCloud I needed to get an iPhoto update in order to get photo stream working, which I did and all is fine.
Once again a big thank you to Apple and all the hard working tech people.
Not sure what has happend but are you sure that the upgrade took? Just check your software version in settings > general > about.

Dopo l'aggiornamento ad ios5 del mio iphone 3gs la batteria ha diminuito la sua durata,che consigli mi date?

Dopo la tua risposta quella sera stessa ho provveduto ad eliminare il file ipsw seguendo le tue indicazioni e le indicazioni fornite nel link. Ho configurato poi nuovamente iPhone come nuovo dispositivo. Una volta resettato non ho installato nessuna apps, nessun contatto, niente di niente. Il telefono ha funzionato regolarmente ieri 12/09/2010 e questa mattina. Alle ore 15,30 di oggi mi sono accorto che era bloccato (icona collega a iTunes). Ho riavviato il telefono e dopo il riavvio è apparso il solito messaggio "iPhone attivo". Quindi come temevo NON abbiamo risolto.
After your response that night I proceeded to remove ipsw file following your directions and instructions provided in the link. I then configured again as a new iPhone the device. Once reset the iphone I have not installed any apps, no contact, nothing. The iPhone has been running smoothly yesterday and this morning 12/09/2010. At 3,30 p.m. today I realized that was locked (icon links to iTunes). I rebooted the phone and restart it appeared the usual message "iPhone activated". So as I was afraid we have not resolved.

Why can't I send emails after iOS5 upgrade of iPhone 3GS?

Having upgraded to iOS5, my iPhone 3GS will receive but will no longer send emails. The error message says that it cannot send mail because the recipient [named] was rejected by the server. This happens whether I am trying to reply to an incoming message or create one afresh. Help please.

If anyone picks up this question, I later found the answer at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3400398?start=0&tstart=0 - a thread I failed to find when I first searched.

I lost my photos when I upgraded to ios5 on my iphone 3gs

Hi I have lost all but the photos from the camera roll album when I upgraded my iPhone 3gs. I had also lost my music but have sorted that out. The photos tho are what are important as some are my wedding photos and of our puppy when we first got him etc. I have read about doing a restore but that wants you to wipe everything and that worries me. I can't find my photos anywhere. I freely admit that I haven't done a sync in ages with my itunes so thought to do it today and now it's all lost....please help. I'm not very computer savvy. All my apps and contacts are there the photos are all that are now missing. Yes I admit I'm an idiot for not making sure the photos had been backed up. I thought that happened automatically when you synced the iphone which I did do a few months ago. Please help a woman in her mid 40's fighting depression and now the loss of her photos...beware family...lol....it's either laugh or cry. Thanking you in advance for your help...Cheryl

I was able to get photos to show up on the camera roll that look like they are missing. Here's how (taken from another thread.)
1- Download Iphone Explorer (does not need to be a jailbroken device) http://www.macroplant.com/iphoneexplorer/
2.) connect your iphone using the usb cable
3.) launch iphone explorer
4.) backup and then delete the following files:
     /Media/PhotoData/MISC/Info.plist
     /Media/PhotoData/Photos.sqlite (or /PhotoData/Photos.sqlite)
     /Media/PhotoData/PhotosAux.sqlite (or /PhotoData/PhotosAux.sqlite)
5.) reboot your iphone
After you reboot your device, windows will prompt if you wan to open your iphone on windows explorer as usual. After you open it, your photos are going to be there, just like it was before update.

21.1GB space used after IOs5 upgrade on iphone 3gs

Hi,
i just Upgraded to IOs5 on my 3GS and there is 21.1GB of space used for other. does that seem right? Is there a way to figure out what is using that much space and reduce the usage?
Cheers

There are still battery issues with iOS 5 and another update is forthcoming. In the meantime do you have an Exchange mail account on your iPhone?
Your charging problem is almost certainly related to the water damage on your iPhone. You can do an out-of-warranty replacement for $149.

Did you fail to transfer all purchases to your compter before updating?

Please please help - I have been trying forums and fixes for hours - I installed ios5 on my iphone 3gs, and it wiped the audiobook i downloaded on my phone in itunes, the worst bit is i just had 30 minutes to go on a 20 hour book!!!

Audible still shows the book (although i purchased it in itunes) but was playing it in audiobooks, it shows the book there but says no data when i try to play it.
It shows in my purchase history in my account but not in my itunes library and I really begrudge paying8 quid again just to listen to last 20/30 minutes - but it is so frustrating i have literally spent hours searching blogs for hints and would appreciate any help

Did you fail to transfer all purchases to your compter before updating?

How can I create an all-day reminder in iOS5 using iPhone 3GS?

When I use the new Reminders app in iOS5 on my iPhone 3GS to create a new reminder for today, the app automatically sets a specific time (e.g. 18:00) for the reminder. But what if I want it to be an all-day event? I still want it to be an event for a specific date, I just don't want to get notified about the event at any specific time. Can this be done?
By the way, this works fine on the iPhone 3GS if I create an all-day reminder in iCal and then sync it to the iPhone using iCloud. Then the iPhone displays it as an all-day reminder. But if I creat the reminder on the iPhone, I can't see how to set it to be an all-day reminder...?

Oh, that's weird. Yeah, it seems to be because the iCal todo has a "Due Date" that's separate from the "Remind Me" date/time -- but the reminders created by Reminders.app don't have the Due Date field.

Can't synch Notes or Contacts from iPhone 3GS after upgrade to iOS5

After I upgraded to iOS5 on my iPhone 3GS, I no longer can synch Notes and Contacts from iPhone to Outlook or iCloud. Calendar synchs OK.

After 2 hours with Apple Support, which was great, we figured out the issue. 1-800-my-iphone. When I upgraded to iOS5 and started using the iCloud, I was unaware that my previous synching settings were still set to Yahoo.com where I had been sycning wirelessly in the past. So the Apple support tech showed me that I had multiple accounts in both Notes and Contacts. I had iPhone, iCloud, yahoo, Outlook accounts and my default settings on the iphone should have all been set to icloud. Syching was occuring, but not in icloud. It took a little manual conversion of some Notes and Contacts into the icloud folders in Outlook, but now everything works and I only display and use the iCloud accounts in Notes and Contacts. Apple realizes that this is an issue for those of us that were previously using Yahoo and equivalents for wireless synching and they provded my support free. Usually they charge $27. All is well.

Can't make calls or sms on iphone 3gs after iOs5 upgrade?

I upgraded to iOS5 on my iphone 3gs and I am having major problems connecting to the 3g network. I can't make or recieve calls or sms, or log on to the internet over the 3g network. wifi works fine, but that doesn't help with the calls or the sms, and i can't always be on wifi for my emails. the phone worked fine before the upgrade.
i've restored the entire phone as a new phone, i've gone in to the apple store and had my phone looked at, they say there's nothing wrong with the hardware.
i live in Canada and my carrier is Rogers - of course when I call them for help they say it must be the phone not their network. they'd rather i buy a new phone and sign another 3 year contract
the only thing that seems to help is restoring network settings. immediately after doing that I can make calls, send and receive sms, and use the internet over 3g. but it only fixes it temporarily... after about 15 mins I'm back to the same problem. can't make or receive call etc.
anyone else having this same problem?
anyone know of a solution?

IOS5 on iPhone 3GS - 'over capacity' unknown used space & can't sync music.

I just downloaded the new iOS5 for my iPhone 3GS, and ever since I got it, I can't sync my music as it says that it is 'over capacity', even though I had over 6GB of free space left before the upgrade.
I also found out that I have 9.9GB of 'other' in which I didn't have before iOS5 upgrade.
I just want to get rid of the 'other' category & sync my music on my iPhone -- HELP!!!

Similar issues as in you don't got your music back on the phone? That's not the same problem or anything "similar" to this problem i must say!
Your problem is simple, you always need to resync the music from your current computer when you upgrade to a new iOS version, most people don't see this as a problem as they simply drag and drop their files to the iphone(or itunes library) or sync from their library if the music already exist in there.
So for you, just find the music on your computer and drag and drop them to your phone if you have selected to handle music/videos manually in itunes when you click your iphone on the summary "page".

My wife and I both have the IPhone 3Gs and we just downloaded the Ios5 software and now she can't text, anyone have any ideas? It seems like you can only IM to another IPhone user whereas befor the download, we could text anyone.text

My wife and I just downloaded IOS5 onto our IPhones, 3Gs. Prior to, we were able to text anyone, now, she can't text at all except from her IPhone to my IPhone. I'm also unable to IM from my IPad2. Any suggestions?

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.
