Is it worth upgrading from IOS 6.1.3 to IOS 7.1 ?
I recently upgraded my iPhone 4S from IOS 5 to IOS 6.1.3. While everything else seems okay, the battery life has decreased significantly. Infact I can clearly feel the battery drains at double the speed compared to how it was with IOS 5. On the internet some people have suggested it to be an issue with the 6.1.3 OS. Only for this reason I am thinking of upgrading to the IOS 7.1.1. Otherwise I like the look and feel of the IOS 6 a lot. My question is:
1. Will the battery drainage issue be solved after moving to IOS 7.1.1 ?
2. Will there be any performance degradation of the iPhone after installing IOS 7.1.1 ?
Kindly help.

It seems from the user reviews that no one is happy after they have upgraded to IOS 7 versions from 6.1.3 on Iphone 4S.
What user reviews? If speaking of the posts in these user to user technical support forums, they are NOT reviews. These forums are like an emergency room, people generally come here only when they have problems. No intelligent human beign would base their decision to update or not on the postings here.
There are millions of iPhone users that have updated their iPhone4 and newere devices without issues.

Your feedback is much appreciated.
This is not a discussion board.
If you have a technical support question, ask it.
Otherwise, make your own decision if you want to update or not.

I have an iPad 2 and is it worth upgrading from iOS 5.1 to 6.0 And should I wait for further stable updates? As I have there are app compatibility and security issues on ios 6.
Most users haven't had problems with iOS 6, however, some have. I'm still using iOS 5.1.1 on my iPad 2. There is a beta version iOS 6.1 being tested. Don't know when it will be released. When it is released, I'll update.

That is a question you really have to answer...go to http://www.apple.com/osx and check the features in ML...are they features that are important to YOU? Do you want to text message from your computer? Use the other features that are an integral part of iOS/ For me the huge factor is the added speed of ML...Safari for me is significantly faster...the whole system is faster. I really like ML...but there are others on here who disagree.
Go through the features and see how important they are to you then decide. -
I can't upgrade from IOS 6.0.1 to IOS 7.1.1 on my iPad 2. iPad says it has downloaded IOS 7.0.3 but cannot verify the installation if I try and install it. It claims that I have lost internet connection, which I have not. I cannot restore or update the iPad in iTunes either, if I try to, I get an error message which says that I 'do not have permission to access the requested resource'. I am using the latest version of iTunes on Windows 8. I have tried putting the iPad in recovery mode and restoring it with iTunes, the result is the same.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!@Rudegar
Thanks for the reply, but I've been having this problem for well over a week. If it is a corrupt download, is there some way of deleting it from the iPad and getting a new one?

Hi, I upgraded from iOS 5.1.1, to iOS 6, and it's ridiculously slow, I can't sync to my computer, (manually manage music), and all of my photos were gone. How can I get my photos back? It says restoring photos, but it's said that for two days now!
It just does't sync. I connect it to itunes, but nothing happens. Where it says how much space I have, it's just on ebig bar that says other. I can play my music on itunes, but not when i unplug it.
All of my photos were gone, i took and saved them with my ipod.
The photo app is saying restoring.

I upgraded from ios 4.3.3 to ios 7, but during the final setup I input the language (english) and try to connect with my wifi and I get the message unable to join my home network. How can I get past this so I can complete the setup?
Are you using the encryption key code for your home wifi network? The encryption key code is usually located on a sticker on the back of the router.

hello guys i face a problem when i upgrade from iOS 4.2.1 to iOS 5.1.1 on ipad 3 .when i upgrade i don' t found the camera app from the built in apps.when i try to install from the app store i don't found the correct camera app .please help me .please give any suitable link where i find the correct camera app
It's a built-in app, so it can't be deleted nor downloaded from the store. If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Camera being set 'off' ?
If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
I can't get into my iPad since upgrading from iOS 6 to 7.0.3
I know that I've entered the correct passcode, and iOS 7 validates it as it installs, but now I'm locked out, but wasn't intially.
How do I gain acces again? I've tethered it to iTunes but can't see anything to help.
Help please.Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. 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."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Since you have IOS-7, read this. -

How do you upgrade from iOS 4 to iOS 5?
How do I upgrade from iOS 4.3.4 to at least iOS 5 or 6. I have been told to do it through iTunes but have not found the app yet. I am not real good at this sort of thing and could use any advice. I changed from ATT to Consumer Cellular service and my phone will not connect to the internet unless I upgrade to at least iOS 5.
Did you click on the link that Allan Eckert provided and follow the instructions?
