IPhone 5 owners, new iOS 6.1, shall we risk it?
Subject sez all. New code on the block. Russian Roulette time. Go or not?
Early Adopters, first impressions, please....
P.S. Maybe it is available for earlier models, have no info on that respect. But judging from the 6.0.2 rollout, wouldn't hold my breath.

Just do it. What are you waiting for...
To end the workday so the phone is no longer a critical piece of equipment and for iTunes to have a full, valid and up-to-date backup of the thing.
Oh, and to wait just long enough to see that no moaning and teeth gnashing pops up in the forums, post-update...

Delete the pairing and then re-pair the devices.

Will be "Find my Friends" automatically downloaded to my Iphone with the new IOS 6 release?
No. It's an app from the AppStore. Like all other apps from the AppStore you choose which ones to download.

i can't download my photos from my iPhone with the new ios - I don't want to be charged for mobile me - and I want to control what's on what device - can anyone assist me?
import photos using iPhoto on your mac.
plug your phone in, open iphoto if it doesn't open automatically.
your device should open up in iphoto so you can view your pictures. click import all and you can choose to delete from device after import or not. -
HT4623 We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time. Please try again later, or contact customer care.----How to fix this issue while setting up the iphone for the new ios?
If you don't have a SIM card in the phone, you must put one in. It's required for activation.
If you do, then your phone was probably hacked to unlock it from the original carrier. Contact them and see if they will unlock it. If they will not do so, then you can't use that phone. -
I bought my Whatsapp from a friend's account, because my account buys only free apps. Thing is, if I updated my iPhone to the new iOS 5, will I lose Whatsapp?!
When installing iOS 5, the iPhone is backed up first (which does not include any iTunes content including 3rd party apps) followed by being completely erased before iOS 5 is installed. This is followed by the backup being restored and all iTunes content in your iTunes library that is selected to be transferred to your iPhone being re-transferred.
If the app is in your iTunes library, you shouldn't lose it, but since this app was downloaded with your friend's iTunes account, I'm not sure how the app wll be re-transferred unless your computer is also authorized with your friend's iTunes account with iTunes.
No promises. -

After update my iphone 5 to new ios 7.0.3, it's stop working and just show apple((( what to do?
Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

I have an iphone 3gs - yes, an older iphone.
This morning apple had a msg that asked if I wanted to upgrade to the new ios 6.1 (?). I said yes. Now I can't use my phone. I've tried hitting the power and other buttons. I get a white apple on the screen. can't reset phone - doesn't work. what can I do besides take phone into Apple? This *****! I realize (now from reading internet) that my phone/system may be uncompatible. Help!I have a 3GS (a true classic design!) and have upgraded it to 6.1 today. The process did not go without a glitch - it took a few attempts to get the app's to sync but after detecting the ones causing an issue and deleting them it works - so far! I have had issues about 50% of the numerous times a new OS is uploaded to this phone and always take the new OS with trepidation. But at least you know there is a 3GS with 6.1 working OK.
I suggest you do a fresh restart to the phone several times - without it being connected to the computer - to see if it gets its act together and starts. I think it will. Hold down the top 'power' button and front round control button until it shuts down - goes blank and dead. Then press the top power button to re-activate - reboot - it.
If that does not work then plug into your itunes computer, navigate in iTunes to see your iPhone and hopefully you will be able to sync it or at least 'restore iPhone' from the 'summary' tab.
If you can not get onto the iphone perhaps you will still be able to sync if in iTunes by going - 'file' - 'devices' - 'sync iphone' or failing that try transfer purchases' and ultimately 'restore from back-up'.
I had technical problems with my old 3GS (suffered a failed wireless antenna) so I took it to an Apple Store and they issued me with a service-replacement/reconditioned phone for a very modest charge. So if worst come to the worst get a new phone that way! -

When i try to update my iPhone 3gs with new IOS and it won't restore and update
i Tried to update my 3Gs with the new IOS 5 and now it has the plug into itunes sign. I plugged it into itunes and it told me its in recovery mode and it needs to be restored. when i click restore i can only restore and update it but once it is don extracting the software and preps it for restore it tells me it has an unknow error. when i hit ok it tells me to restore it again. i tried all the troubleshooting steps none helped. Any ideas?
I have spent the better part of three days on this. Yesterday I took it to the Apple store and they looked at it and tried to DFU (hold the lock button for 5 seconds, then press the home button along with the lock button for 10 seconds, THEN, let off the lock button continuing til the 'connect to itunes' symbol.
They say that my phone has a bad memory module or logic board. Funny, it worked fine up until I updated. Seems to big of a coincidence to not be related.
The only thing that seemed to get access was using redsnow unlocking tool (my phone is NOT unlocked). I was desparate to try anything. I tried to load a different firmware but still no luck.
I have a blackberry through work that is paid for, so I guess its time to get rid of my iphone plan. -

How do I get my data reloaded after updating my iphone with the new IOS 6.)/
I downloaded the IOS 6.O updated for my iphone. It backed up my data, but I can not get it to restore it. My music and apps were removed. When I try to sync it in itunes an error comes up that this iphone is not allowed to sync. What do I need to do?
Music and apps are not part of the backup that itunes performs at all.
You should be transferring all purchases to your computer regularly. Did you fail to do this?
If you failed to put your music on your computer, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
What exactly does the error message say?
