IPad screen locks up after upgrading to Ios5

My touch screen stops responding and then I can't switch apllications or turn it off.

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

You have to slide up while touching the icon instead of tapping it.

After upgrade to ios5, none of the apps will load. Touching an icon does not open the app; it just blinks and returns to the screen.

Go to the App Stor and download an app- any free app will do, it doesn't matter.
Doing this usually "resets" your device's "app awareness" and you should be able to run any app with no problem.
And no, you don't have to keep that free one you just downloaded. You can delete it if you don't want it.

I wiped it out and restored from backup but I am still getting the same message.

Can someone help? I can't use my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios5.

I have iphone 3 GS. I upgraded the software to ios 5 and the phone is now can't be accessed. All I can see is the Gray screen says Iphone. It ask me to set it up, choose your country, wifi, etc. when I did that, it always stop at the page where it says "Apple activation server is down, please try it again". Tried so many times but the same messages kept showing up. Connect it to Itunes, itunes said there is no sim card installed. I went to AT&T to get the new simcard and it still saying the same thing. don't know what's wrong with it.

After upgrading to iOS5 I can not auto download anything. The buttons will not switch to ON. Any thoughts?

After upgrading to iOS5 I can not set the store to auto download anything. The buttons will not stay in the ON position. Any thoughts?

I experienced this one time and this is what I did and it worked for me. You can try it as well and see of it works for you.
Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap on your ID and sign out. Restart your iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign In. Then go to automatic downloads and try again.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

You can't do it without a computer, although once you get ios5 that necessity will be gone. I would recommend taking it into the apple store. They will do it for you.

Can't unbrick 3GS after upgrading to iOS5.1.1

i cannot unbrick my 3GS after upgrading to iOS5.1.1 it is not giving me an option to factory reset. When i hook up with iTunes to unbrick it after 3-4 mion it says there is no SIM card please insert SIM and SIM card is inside phone which i was using before upgrading iOS. please help
thanks

Assuming you're still using Telus, I'd say take it into their shop and get a fresh replacement SIM. If it wasn't hacked or jailbroken, that's the most likely explanation. I realize you've tried different ones, but it's worth a shot.
You might want to try putting it in DFU mode and restoring again as well. If those things don't work, it's probably time for a trip to the Apple Store to have it looked at.

After upgrading to iOS5 - phone ear speaker is NOT working

Well, my excitement from upgrading to the new iOS5 on my iPhone 4 gave way to frustration when I found out that the phone's built-in ear speaker is no longer working. Tried everything from a hard reset, to re-syncing with iTunes, playing around with every setting I could find, and a few "fixes" I found online that were absolutely useless and did nothing.
This only appears to happen when making or receiving phone calls (and listening to voice mail) - when I select speaker, all audio plays normally, but clicking back over to headset, and nothing. Earbuds also work okay.
Prior to installing iOS5 this problem did not exist in the least.
Apple - I am going to ASSUME you properly beta tested this OS on ALL compatible devices prior to its release, did you not? Apparently (from my web searching) I am not the only person suffering this malfunction with their iPhone after upgrading to iOS5.
Is there anyone out there that has figured out a way to fix this, or am I just screwed? I don't know how to revert back to iOS 4.3.3 if that's even possible at this point. This is a phone I use for work, and I need to have this functioning properly.
Please help. Anyone... thank you.

I'm having exactly the same problem with my iPhone 4. Since the upgrade to IOS5, I've noticed I can no longer hear calls through the ear-piece, though using the speaker phone option works fine.
I took my phone to the Apple Store in Sydney and they advised that the problem was related to my sim card & that I should contact my telco for a replacement. I seriously didn't believe the Apple rep when she said this, but politely said thanks, went home and tried it out by swapping my sim with my wife's.
Guess what... it didn't make the slightest difference.
My wife has an iPhone 4 still running IOS4 and the ear-piece works fine. I even put my sim card into her phone and it worked fine as well. So the issue is definitely not related to the sim card.
It sounds like a common issue affecting a lot of iPhone 4 users that have upgraded to IOS5. I'm surprised Apple hasn't acknowledged this and have a patch available to correct (it doesn't sound like a hardware issue).
Anyway, looks like a trip back to the Apple store for more great suggestions.

How do i get all my contacts back after upgrading to ios5?

After upgrading to ios5, I lost all my contacts, notes, pictures, videos, EVERYTHING ! All my apps were back, but not in the folders I had set up. I lost all my notes from school, my homework, my passwords for everything too...this really *****.

You can look at this document about a restore, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414, but it will show you that after you restore, it takes you to the Setup assistant which is what you encounter with a new device. From there, you select to restore to a backup and select the iCloud backup.
