Updating to ios6

Hello, i left my phone updating last night so i could wake up with a brand new ios in the morning (i set my 5 am allarm just to get an early start), only to wake up a little before 6am with a itunes plug logo.
I had to change my comouters HD so i didn't have itunes since all updates could be done directly from the phone.
I quickly installes itunes only to find that i had to restore to factory settings.
What happened to the "dont need a computer" part?
I have to find my old drive to reinstall all those apps that are no longer available on the appstore....
I have to again pass my music?
What happened here?

Well for my iPod touch 4th Generation, it took me a good hour for it to do it stuff. It will say that it will take 3-5 hours but that is not right. It will only take about an hour. By the way, you have an iPod touch 4G right?

I connected my iphone 4s that I unlocked for t-mobile. I plugged it into itunes, and it asked me to update to ios6. I accepted the download and update button. It told me it needed 8 hours. I closed my laptop, not shut down. I re-opened the laptop a few hours later, and it wants restoring?? Whats going on?! i want my iphone back! PLEASE HELP. I'M LOST!!! (I synced my iphone to my computer if that helps at all).

Yes, and, I try to restore. I have the T-Mobile sim card in it just to clarify. It will not let me get passed that, it does not accept the t-mobile sim card. i tried restoring it using wifi, cellular, and i cant get i tunes. I am scared that if i take the tmobile sim card out and put the at&t one in just to complete the restoration process that the iphone will lock again and not read the tmobile sim card, then all my hard work has gone for nothing. ( this whole process was caused by me trying wanting to empty my pictures onto my computer because i did not have any storage space left). <--- that may not be as important, but i included it just because.

Unable to load some websites after an update to IOS6

I am unable to load some websites in both Safari and Google Chrome. This did not bother me until I found at that I cannot access some websites I can access before and frequent. I am unsure if this was caused by the update to ios6, but this incident only happened after the update. I am unsure as well if this is related to the problem of me unable to connect to itunes and app store after the update. I've fixed those by changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 and changing the time trick. I've also noticed that twitter and some apps crashed a lot. I have no problem connecting to the wifi though. Thank you in advance.

Some additional details I have also noticed. Some images will not show or appears as a blue and white question mark in some websites. Even here in apple website.

I recently updated to IOS6 and I cannot sync my calendar to icloud and all my notes are not appearing in cloud. If I have a new calendar entry, it is on my phone, but not on icloud. Need help making sure I don't lose any informaiton.

I recenly updated to IOS6. I have a couple issues after the process.
1- I lost all my calendar entries after the date I upgraded to IOS6 (all before the date were there). I created an icloud account to assure that I would not lose any going forward. Now when I enter a calendar entry, it does not appear on my icloud account. I can enter it in icloud and it will appear on my phone, but not the reverse.
2 - None of my notes transferred into icloud. I tried to manually enter one on icloud, again so I wouldn't lose this information going forward, and it appears on my iphone twice. I cannot figure out how to get the notes currently on my iphone into my icloud account.

you need to do a backup of the old phone and then on your new phone restore from that backup

Sorry to hear your Adobe experience has been less than stellar. I'll try to help...
1. Photoshop 14.2.1 is now two releases out of date. You might want to go to your Creative Cloud application and ask it to install Photoshop CC (2014). Earlier this year Adobe released 2014.0 as a separate install that can live side by side with 14.2.1. Then just a few days ago they released 2014.1 as an in-place upgrade to 2014.0.
2. You may be able to update Camera Raw directly to version 8.6 by a link from this page:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
Best of luck to you. Please let us know here if these things help.

Syching my iphone4 after updating to ios6 and now half my photos aren't showing up in my phone.

syching my iphone4 after updating to ios6 and now half my photos aren't showing up in my phone.

Did you restore from backup on iTunes or did you use iCloud?
Did you sync with iTunes? Is iTunes section for photos checked to sync all your photo locations?
Also, with photo streaming sometimes you need to switch from Album to photo stream to see some photos.
If your photos are on your computer still, they can be added back. if not and you depended solely on iCloud, then they may be gone.

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

IPad2 update to iOS6 will no longer play UTube: All my favourites that were previously viewed and saved with my iPad2 will no longer play. They can't be played via Safari either SOLUTION PLEASE (buy iPad3 which solves the issue isn't an option)

IPad2 has been updated to iOS6 and will no longer play UTube favourites. These are favourites that have been previously viewed on iPad2 therefore I know the device is capable of playing them. This upgrade is no longer allowing me to use the device for the reason I bought it.
Apple, I'm feeling as though I've been conned.
My mates iPad3 on iOS6 plays all the stuff my 2 will no longer play.
UTube via safari won't play them, all Apps I've tried have the same problem, a red band stating this video can't be played on your device OR flash player required. Has anyone got a solution???? Please don't write stating you have the same problem, I just want solutions. Thanks

This app should solve your headache

After updating to iOS6, I can no longer find the "little yellow man" in the MAP application and so cannot do a virtual tour of my destination or current position. Surely this feature has not been lost?

I have recently updated to iOS6. With this new version came the "new and improved" MAPS. One of the most important features i enjoyed on the previous version was the google map feature of being able to take a virtual look at your position or destination by using the "little yellow man". I no longer see this feature and am wondering what I am doing wrong. Obviously apple would not be so negligent as to remove this feature on purpose!
Thanks
Ian

That feature you mentioned is called Google Street View. As you see in its name, it has Google in it.
Apple is no longer working with Google for their map system, for many unknown reasons (we can only speculate). Therefore, it is normal that Street View is not included anymore.

Iphone is stuck in recovery mode and cannot restore after trying to update to iOS6 - not jailbroken

I have an iphone4s, and the question basically says it all - after trying to update to ios6, the udgrade downloaded to my computer and started loading onto my phone. However it sudeenly just stopped an turned into the balck screen asking to plug into itunes. When I do this, it says I have to restore the phone, but when I try to restore, it says there is an error (3014).
I have tried:
- pressing the home and top buttons unti the apple appears
- Checked all security software and the ports aren't blocked
- Have tried pressing option+restore to choose ios6 and ios5.1.1 - neither has worked
- Its been like this for about a day and a half now, and I have probably tried to restore it at least 50 times to no avail, always with the same error code.
What can I do??
Is this something to do with how busy the appl servers are? And when should I expect to be able to use my phone again?

Yeah same exact problem as me. EXACTLY. In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
MAN, a whole day and a half???? Crap I need my phone to work....
I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something.... It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
It's gotta be that. How many other people are having this same exact issue?

TS1398 Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

Updated to ios6 now lost all wifi connection both iPad and iPhone no longer connects to wifi

not much response in here which surprises me...
Anyway... AS I am still looking for answers, I will share a couple of points that I realised...
in Airport Utility, I noticed that my iphone MAC address was actually showing as client connected, despite my phone network showing the spinning wheel next to the network name for ever and never actually connecting.
I am currently testing the router mode in Network to be on DHCP and NAT mode with a range from .2 to .200
My phone is now connected....
Everything seems to be ok and happy so far...
strange that this router and phone have worked together for at least a couple of years, the phone works everywhere else, and all other toys connect to my WIFI just fine. the list is as follow:
airport extreme
Zeppelin air
2x apple tv
2 ipads
iphone 4s
2 mac
1 pc
I have litterally just hard reset the router with a pin just now as a last resort... same...
I will leave the router as DHCP & NAT until a potential firmware or OS update...

Hi alicia243,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone wont power on, I recommend going through these steps first:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Best,
Jeremy

TS1702 I downloaded the update to ios6 on my I-pad 3. Now it won't do anything. Just a blank screen with the apple icon and a horisontal bar. Won't turn off either

I connected my i-pad 3 to my i-mac computer to sync music. Once connected it said I had an update to ios6 for my i-pad. I did as instructed. at the end it said it could not install because of error 1603. Now the i-pad will not shut now. It just has a black screen with the apple icon on it. Help

This is the ipod touch forum.
Try posting in the ipad forum

I have a problem in my iphone 4 with wi-fi after update to IOS6 please can help my how can solve this problem?

I have a problem in my iphone 4 with wi-fi after update to IOS6 please can help my how can solve this problem?

Nope
One needs to press the home and sleep / wake keys together for the phone to reset
The other thing I could recommend
Let the battery run out and the phone completely "die"
It may take a day or two with it not being used
Then plug it in to charge and see if there is any change in behavior
If you cannot get this to work - you may need to bring it to an Apple store

Restore the phone as a new device. There is probably something that was corrupted on your phone during the update and has been passed via the backup to the replacement phone. If the corruption/problem is contained in the backup, you'll need to re-sync your data, and re-install your apps manually. Restoring the backup again will only bring the problem back with it.
If restoring it as new does not fix it, then make an appointment at the genius bar.

TS2771 what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all

what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all please help me

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
-When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
