Ipad data after IOS5 update
A principal that I work with upgraded his iPad2 to ios5 last night. He did the sync and back up with itunes and then upgraded.
Now he can get all his apps back but all the data for those apps is gone. Pages, notes, etc....
Anyone know how to get the data back? I assume it has to do with iCloud but we don't know what to do. With the number of iPads we have this has a huge potential to cause us major problems.
Carolyn:
I have not updated (I am nervous to) so I have to work of his issue. So to make sure I know what I am talking about:
Are the system Preferences/iCloud located in itunes? (what version?) And I assume iCloud shows up in the settings after the update.
Would the unit need to resync after changing these settings?
Thanks

Make sure Documetnts and Data are selected in System Preferences / iCloud
And on the iPad make sure Documents and Data are enabled in Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data

IPad problems after iOS5 update
Long process so I'll go through step by step.
I downloaded the iOS 5 update on Wednesday and backed up my iPad 1 (64gb, wi-fi) both seemingly without issue. Let iTunes do its thing and install the OS and restore my backup and while it seemed to update the software OK the backup failed. Tried again probably 10 times getting various errors (-35, -48, 4056xxx, not sure if those are exactly right but you get the idea) so I decided to delete the iOS 5 file from my computer, restore to factory settings and try downloading, installing and restoring again but got the same problems.
So I bit the bullet and accepted that somewhere in the backup the file may have been corrupted and tried to set it up as a new iPad with iOS 5. Got all my apps synced, but when it goes to sync my music/movies/etc. it will just stop and iTunes will just eject the iPad itself.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm not too worried about the restore as I can recreate my home screens and sign back into the apps that require it, I just want to get everything back on there.
EDIT: All this on a Mac running the newest versions of both Lion and iTunes.Same problems here. Also browser issues, Safari (the worst), Atomic and Opera. Have tried every cache clearing and reset suggestion I can find. IOS 5 has been a royal pain. 5.01 didn't help anything here.

After ios5 update, iCal week view Oct 2-8 has 2 Saturdays?
Is anyone else having problems with iCal week view on iPad after ios5 update?
Two major changes have occurred...
1. Week view used to start on Monday, now Sunday (and can't change it back).
2. If you look at the week October 2-8, 2011 there are 2 Saturdays and no Friday or following Saturday...
Any ideas? Is this a wait for ios5.1 issue?
Cheers
ChrisIf you are using a Mac, go to Settings>Software Update ... check for any updates, and update all.
Chances are you are not using iTunes 10.5, which is required to sync iOS 5.
If youare using a PC, suggest you uninstall your iTunes, download fresh iTunes 10.5 from Apple.com/itunes and install it. -
I tried to update my sons iPad now it won't turn on or off it shows a cable and iTunes symbol tried holding down sleep button & screen button but no luck does this mean it's Broken I've seen posts saying their iPad died after doing updates.
It's not broken, it just means that the iPad has gone into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
You will need to connect the iPad, via its cable, to a computer's iTunes (you will need an up-to-date version of iTunes installed on the computer), and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync the content to it. -

have 18g of other on 3gs after ios5 update. what is this and how do you get rid of it?
\Based on other forum users' posts, it seems like all you need to do is Restore the phone from your latest backup, and that should "refresh" your phone's appraisal of its data storage.

After iOS5 update apps blink and don't open and music content is gone and won't sync onto iPod
After iOS5 update apps blink and don't open after trying to select them, and the music content was completely gone! Help!
See the following:
I updated my ipad 2 to ios5 and now apps won't open they just blink. What should i do?
Just updated iphone4 to ios5, now apps won't open, they blink once but won't run
When you look at the storage usage of the iPod in iTunes (the colored bargraph) , how much is in the "other" category? If very large yu will have to restore you riPod to get it down to is normal less than about 1/2 GB. -
Apps are missing after ios5 update
after ios5 update on ipad2 all my apps are missing, how do i get them back?

I have the same problem. I disconnected and synced, and I can see them in itunes,
Disconnected from what? the computer? Did you connect to the computer again, launch iTunes and then do as I described above?
You have selected all of the apps to sync - put checkmarks in all of the boxes next to the app names and have the Sync Apps heading checked as well?
Do you have restrictions set on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions>On?
Are you signed into the correct iTunes account on the iPad and the computer? -

After ios5 update, I am not getting any sound when I play music.
After ios5 update, I am not getting any sound when I play music (iphone speakers or headphones). I get sound from games, previewing songs in iTunes, etc. Any idea why? I've resynced and shut down my phone and that didnt help.
iPhone 4Beer,
is that when you want to play music over the air (airplay) like BT headset or something?
because i am facing the below issue in my car.
the phone minimizes the volume of airplay and the ringing to 0 when connecting to a device (BT headset or car kit)
upon disconnecting, the ringing tone remains 0 and i miss all or most of my calls. -
I made an update to my iPad and after the update it went to recovery mode. It wiped all of my apps off and now I can't add apps
When I try to add apps it doesn't do anything. I have connected to the computer to iTunes and it isn't syncing any of my apps to the iPad. I am not sure what else to try? I have turned the iPad off and restarted and nothing changed. I tried to download something from iTunes on the iPad and it isn't letting me.

IPad 2 problem after ios5 update
I have just updated my iPad 2 to ios5 yesterday. Everything was working fine until a couple minutes before when I couldn't click on any apps in the store. I could click on the BUY button but not entering the page to see the details of the app. My partner has the same problem straight after the update. Help please?
I, too, have been having this issue with my iPad 2 and it is quite a nuisance. I have the iPod 2 32gb wifi version.
Hoping someone has any suggestions/fixes available -
Recognition error after iOS5 update of ipad (1)?
I updated my ipad (1) with iOS5. The update was successful, but now my Windows XP does not recognize my ipad (the USB does not recognize). Also, now, itunes can not identify and update it. My ipad was working fine before the iOS5 update.
The USB error is that "USB device not recognized - One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows can not identify it".
I tried to update the USB driver (unknown device driver in the "Driver Manager" field of Windows) but reached a deadend. Apple online support guide says that I need to call them or get them to service/repair it. But, they need money to provide support. *****, as this was working before the update.
Please advise/help.I have the same problem.. try this:
power off iPad
unplug USB cable
plug in USB cable
iPad should power up, and if iTunes is open, should recognize the USB port.
if that doesn't work, try plugging the USB cable in directly to the computer.
it seems to be a bug with USB hubs -
IPad won't accept passcode after iOS5 update?
Just updated my iPad 2 to iOS5. Turned it on and the passcode prompt has changed, no longer just asking for 4 digit passcode. Oooookay, I entered my old 4-digit passcode and it didn't work. Tried my Apple ID passcode, no luck. Tried the password for the MacBook that the iPad is sync'd to. No luck.
*** Apple?
Anyone? This is a BIG problem for me because I use the iPad for work constantly, and I really don't have time to waste an afternoon at the "Genuis" bar resolving a problem that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
Does Apple even BETA TEST this junk?Wow, I have just purchased an iPad for my wife and had this exact problem. It didn't help that it decided to lock at exactly the same time I was trying to sync it to iTines on a computer. I did a restore and had to re-install all the apps. All went OK, then it did it again. I went to the Macshop who said they had never heard of such a thing. I would not have thought to try my wife's outlook exchange password unless I had found this post ! Thanks
