The ios5 upgrade iMessage

The ios5 upgrade re: iMessage..instead of identifying user by name - from contacts- gives only phone number - only with iMessage, not with text message.  Very annoying

I'm not sure if it makes a difference but when you tested it was it a new conversation or old?

  • Ipad not recognized by windows neither iTunes after error in the iOS5 upgrade

    The iOS5 upgrade was stopped due to an error.
    Since then the iPad is not being recognized by windows neither iTunes. I've re-installed iTunes, the file usbaapl.sys is at windows\system32\drivers and Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers folders but still there's an error when I plug in the iPad - Apple Mobile Device (Recovery) - This device can not start (code10).
    I've call the support here in Brazil and the only information that I got was that this was due to the fact that I'm running windows XP and it doesn't support iTunes 10.5 and iOS 5. Can any one confirm this? Why there's no information on this when I installed the 10.5 version and downloaded the iOS 5?
    Any help would be highly apreciated because now I have my iPad asking to be connected to iTunes and no chance to get a PC with a different version of Windows...

    Glad you got it fixed - and I wasn't trying to be a wise guy.
    It just seemed logical to me that if iTunes recognized the iPad and the iPhone - but they didn't show un in your Windows Devices Manager or Explorer or whatever it's called - that it was probably a Windows thing.
    Now you must truly be a HappyMommy!

  • Adding a new contact anymore after the IOS5 upgrade!

    I can not add a new contact anymore after the IOS5 upgrade - the " + " sign is gone? - how can this be fixed?

    I think cpohlink has made a good observation.  The same issue- no plus sign- is showing up in both calanders and contacts for some people.   I have the plus sign on both apps, and do not have the problem at all.  So what is the difference?
    I have i cloud turned off for everything but find my phone.  And i am not synced to any external calander or contact list except my phone.
    Change your cloud settings to off, and see if that does it.  Also, think about what other clalanders/ contact lists you might be syncing with.  If they ae considered the 'master' then that may make the pad pad a slave, and unable to add entries.
    Related question, can you edit entries, or is that blocked as well?

  • Why is Safari crashing so often on my iPad 1since the iOS5 upgrade?

    Why is Safari crashing so often on my iPad 1since the iOS5 upgrade?
    Using tabbed browsing seems to make it worse.

    I haven't seen that problem with iOS 7.
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    If these don't correct the problem connect to iTunes and do a restore.
    You can't downgrade iOS levels.

    is the IOS5 upgrade for iphone 3G because mine says it is up to date and wont upgrade to IOS 5

    This is all true.
    The iphone 3G can only be updated to 4.2.1.  It will not support any version higher than that.

  • How do I re-initialise the restore of the backup created by the iOS5 upgrade

    In my over enthusiasm to get iOS 5 I forgot to sync my iPad 2 with iTunes before kicking off the upgrade- doh! No worries, I thought, as the process creates a backup. The upgrade worked but the restore did not. After several tries I simply synced my iPad. Everything works apart from missing some data from an App.  that I increasingly use for work. So- I would like to re-invoke the restore to at least get my data back and then worry about fully "recovering" from the upgrade! I can see the appropriate file in the ...\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPad Software Updates directory but this is not available to any of the normal restore processes that I can see. NOTE: after the several tries when prompted that the restore did not work I did press the Delete button rather than try again. I recovered the file to the afore mentioned directory.
    My PC is Windows 7.

    '''aj34977:''' While it is nice of you to make this comment, you might want to read my first post again. The answer you suggest is actually mentioned there, in my list of things that did not fix the problem.
    This is not to diminish the fact that this worked for you (and no doubt many others) but there are already several posts about that particular solution and -- as stated -- this was about what to do when that (and several other proposed fixes) did not work.

  • Why can't i send email since the ios5 upgrade?

    why can't I send emails since ios 5 upgrade?

    There are several threads discussing this issue. I tried many suggested solutions without success until one finally worked and I'm sharing it in every thread.
    First, here is my hardware/software situation, if your's is diff, then the fix I found might not work.
    iPhone 4 upgraded to iOS 5.  IMAP email wouldn't SEND
    Fix:
    Go into setting>mail>your account>Outgoing mail Server SMTP>Primary Server then turn Server ON and fill in both User Name + Password under Outgoing Mail Server.
    It seems that in previous versions of iOS, you didn't need to enter your username and password in the outgoing mail server settings, but in iOS 5, IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
    Thanks to worapoj for being the first (i saw) to post this simple fix. 

  • I lost all my contacts after doing the iOS5 upgrade.

    I have an iphone 3Gs and upgraded it to iOS 5 over the weekend. After the upgrade - everything was there apart from my contacts. I tried all the usual suggestions relating to switching icloud on and off etc but nothing worked. Finally decided to do a restore from backup, but the only backup iTunes shows is from after I did the iOS 5 upgrade. What happened to all the backups from prior to upgrade? I know it backed up before the upgrade, but now that one is missing?? Is there anyway to retrieve previous backups in iTunes?? Is devastating to lose all my contacts.... Any help would be appreciated!!

    If you have your contacts in Outlook or Address Book you should be able to sync them back.  If you only had them on your phone, and if you backed up your iPhone by syncing with iTunes before you went to the Apple store, you might be able to extract your contacts from this old backup using 3rd party software such as: http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/.

  • How do I get the ios5 upgrade for my ipad 2

    how??

    Make sure you have the current version of iTunes.
    Now connect by USB, with iTunes open, the update notice will pop-up.
    Click on download only (If you're having problems don't complicate things with an install now.).
    Got the download?
    Eject the iPad and do something else for awhile.
    Come back open iTune, connect the iPad and install.
    Future updates won't require USB connection to iTunes but for now you have to.
    If your still stymied take the iPad to your nearest Apple Genius Bar and have them do it (make sure all necessary info is backed up on your home computer).
    Then call a local computer techie and find out what's going wrong with your machine.

  • Cannot find the IOS5 upgrade for my iPhone3

    Please help, i would really like to use this upgrade

    If you have an iphone 3Gs and you have itunes 10.5, then open itunes and connect the iphone.  It will tell you there is an update, just update like any other update.
    If it is an iphone 3G, then you cannot update to ios 5.

  • I can´t sync my ipod touch since i got the ios5 upgrade

    The problem is that i can´t sync my ipod with itunes because it says that it didnt find my ipod, i tried to sync via wifi and nothing..
    what´s the problem? I have windows 7 home premium i´ve never had this problem..

    Have you made sure that you plug the iPod into power? WiFi syncing only works if the iPod is plugged in to a USB cable or a wall charger. This is to prevent unnecessary draining of the battery.

  • The IOS5 download seems to be conflicting with my IPAD2 wifi connection.

    I have downloaded the IOS5 upgrade to my IPAD2.  Since then I have had difficulty with the Ipad connecting to the wifi.  Every time I manually  get it connected to wifi the wifi will disconnect with my other devices such as my Iphone.  I have tried just about everything and nothing works.  Any ideas?

    I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
    She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
    Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
    The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
    Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
    Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
    If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
    One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

    On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
    I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

  • Bluetooth issue after IOS5 upgrade

    I just upgraded from IOS4 to IOS5 on iPhone 4.  With IOS4, my contacts are sorted and displayed as LAST, FIRST both on the phone and on the car display (BMW 328i).  After the IOS5 upgrade, the contacts are still displayed LAST, FIRST on the phone but FIRST, LAST on the car display.  Outgoing calls placed from the phone show up as ******* on the car display, but outgoing calls placed from the car menu show the correct (albeit LAST, FIRST) name on the phone. 
    Nothing changed with the car's bluetooth setup.
    I've seen similar posts - is this just an IOS5 bug?
    I will try pairing the phone and car again, and reverse the phone's sort order to FIRST, LAST to see if that makes a difference.

    I have a Bmw 5 series, afer the switch to IOS 5 the bluetooth in my iphone 4 stopped working,it si ply does not recognise other bluetooth devices or the car.
    Will apple issue an updeto IOS 5 ? Orwill BMW update the car's software?
    Is there a way to returning to IOS 4? ios 5 is nice but not spectacular, having bluetooth in working order is essential. Shame on Apple, becoming mre like microsoft, releaing software with important bugs.
