What is the success rate of iOS 4.1 upgrade to current version

I have a friend with iPhone 4 and he has iOS 4.1. He thinks that upgrading iOS version to the current will not go smooth for him.
He is affraid of Maps performance, loosing Google maps and people complaining that their apps don't work anymore.
I say that people tend to complain about their upgrade experience and that's why Internet is filled with issues and not messages "upgraded iOS to latest. no problems".
I appreciate if you provide some good data on success rate of upgrading the iOS version or simply arguments in favor of upgrading.
Thanks

I did it to a friend's phone about one week ago - iOS 4.1 to iOS 6.01 (6.1 was not released at that time) and the upgrade went in absolutey smoothly.
I do understand the concern about the maps but your friend could also download the Google Maps App - it is free, and this would perhaps solve that concern.
The upgrade, I believe, does bring a lot of useful features, not least of which is iCloud.

  • What is the Data Rate of the Cache in Adobe Premiere CS6

    Hi,
    Trying to build a raid array to edit with and want to know how much speed i need for caching read/write drive for premiere and After Effects. I'm of the impression that the cache doesn't need more than a single 7200rpm drive (~120MB/s) but really i have no clue what the data rate that adobe caches to is or what the data rate to read is
    so it's 2 questions
    how fast does premiere write the cache? (i know this is system dependent but a ballpark figure would be good for say a sandy bridge i5 2500k system with a 2 raid 7200rpm drive)
    and
    what's the data rate to read the cache in a 1080 24p file?
    also, when doing the final export does premiere/after effects read from the Cache or the original files or both?
    thx,

    ok i've figured out the physics of this question.
    The Cache Read data rate is always larger than the Cache Write data rate, because the computer would have to be rendering to Cache faster than realtime for the Write rate to be higher, which would make it unnecessary to render to cache in the 1st place. So I'm really only worried about the Cache read data rate. Does adobe have a paper that tells us what the data rate is for different sequences.
    my 3 common workflows are
    canon h.264 1080 24p
    AVChd 1080 24p from my GH2 with a 44mb
    and
    r3d 5k epic footage 24p - (this is painful to edit )
    anyone know where this info is?
    thx,

  • What is the expected behavior in iOS 7 when hitting send on an email with no wifi or cell connection being present?

    What is the expected behavior in iOS 7.x when hitting send on an email with no wifi or cell connection being present? Also is the behavior designed to be any different if the user intiates airplane mode ahead of time?
    We have a couple of users that claim in this situation the email will act like it sent in which they expect it will go out once a network connection is restored.  They then come to find the recipient never recieved it and that it does not show in sent email.  Its merely lost and they claim its also not in drafts.
    I would hope the expected behavior would be that it would either retry sending once network connectivity is restored or at least warn that it needs to be saved as a draft since no connection is present.

    It should show "X unsent messages" at the bottom of the mail app.
    It also should create an outbox where the unsent emails will queue up, but this could also vary on the email provider.
    Once you re connect to a network, it should just send the messages

  • What are the Bit Rates of the Music Store and Podcasts?

    What is the bit rate quality and format of a song downloaded in the Music Store? And podcasts? Are they perfect, Apple Lossless quality or what...?

    This might be true, but you won't experience any improvement in sound quality. Here's some info on bit rates:
    This was originally posted by the incredible Sparky the wUnderdog
    "As a general principle, you can fit more CDs on your iPod if you encode at lower bitrates (making smaller files), but at the cost of audio quality. Lossless promises to capture all the data on the original CD (thus preserving quality) but coded so the file takes half the space. MP3 and AAC (an implementation of variable bit rate MP4) both eliminate some of the information on the CD in order to compress the digital recording into ever smaller files--the lower the bitrate, the smaller the file, but smaller files mean more information lost and consequent poorer sound quality.
    iTunes's MP3 encoder is so-so; the LAME encoder is better at preserving sound fidelity to the original. AAC files ripped in iTunes certainly sound better than its MP3s, with audio quality close to the best LAME MP3s at higher bitrates. With the type of music I listen to most often, sound quality declines substantially as bitrates fall below 256kbps, but LAME or AAC @ 256kbps sounds pretty darned good, and at 320kbps LAME alt-preset-insane is amazingly faithful to the original. However many users claim that with the music they listen to they can't hear the difference between 192 or even 128 kbps files and the original CD source, so they naturally choose higher compression rates to fit more "songs" on their iPods.
    CDs take approximately 10MB per minute of music; Apple lossless takes 5MB/minute; LAME insane takes 2.5MB/min; AAC or MP3 at 256kbps take 2MB/min; and iTunes Store files (AAC@128kbps) take 1MB/min. At these rates, a 20GB iPod (really 18.6GB) can hold anywhere from 30 hours to over 300 hours of music. (iPod marketers express this potential playback capacity as "songs," figuring 4 minutes per song--thus 300 hours at 128kbps = 4500 "songs.") You will need to listen to samples ripped with different bitrates and codecs to determine the optimum tradeoff point for you between quality & quantity. It's worth taking some time to do this at the start as it sure beats reripping everything in your collection 2 or 3 times to get it right later.
    So far as convenience goes, nothing beats iTunes's one-step process. To change bitrate as you import from CD, go to the iTunes menu > Edit > Preferences, select the Importing tab, choose AAC or MP3 encoder in the "import using" selection box, then choose "Custom" in the "setting" box, and the window permitting bitrate selection will pop up. If you choose iTunes MP3 encoder, at least use VBR (variable bit rate) to maximize the sound quality. (VBR increases sample size as data complexity increases.)
    If you would prefer LAME MP3s, fear not, for the easy-to-use CDex ripping software is a free download and requires only one simple extra step to get the files into iTunes for transfer to your iPod. Now if AAC sound quality is comparable to LAME MP3, you might wonder why you should even consider LAME: Because of portability to other devices. At present, hardly anything but iPods can read AACs or Apple Lossless, but almost everything reads MP3s. So if you plan to burn CDs of your compressed files for playback on your home or car CD player (for instance), it would be wise to choose MP3.
    One other consideration specific to the iPod: It has a 32MB cache. If you choose a compression rate that results in large files (i.e. lossless), then the cache won't hold very much 'music' and the hard drive will have to spin up frequently to fill it, and that will shorten your battery life somewhat."

  • What is the maximum rate we can achieve using 9403 in digital switching

    what is the maximum rate we can achieve using 9403 in digital switching?
     i am using 9102 chassi and 9012 controller.
     i am trying to program the 9403 as the output port and i am using it for switch on one of my devices.
                          minimum pulse width should be =1micro second

    Have you looked at the specifications in the user manual for the 9403?
    http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374069e.pdf
    Looks likethe update rate for the 9403 using a cRIO 9102 chassis is 7microsec.  I don't think you can get 1 microsec pulse width using the 9403, maybe try the 9401 or other high-speed module.

  • HT5848 What is the sampling rate and codec for iTunes Radio. Is it lossless encoded?

    What is the sample rate and codec for iTunes Radio? Is it lossless encoded?

    I have to agree with you.  There are several forum discussions on bit rate being as high as 256 kbps but I don't see how it could be more than 96 kbps based on the poor sound quality I'm hearing.  I'm comparing it to an internet radio station that is 128 kbps and sounds much better.
    Am I missing something?

  • What should the multicast rate be set at?

    what should the multicast rate be set at in the wireless options box?
    mine was set at the default of 6 Mbps but could be set higher: 9, 12, 18 & 24Mbps.
    Any care to explain what it does?
    Regards Simon

    That sets the minimum date rate which is valid for a connection. If a connection can't maintain that rate, the connection will drop.
    A side effect of setting it higher is that your usable range will decrease. You will need to be closer to the base station to maintain a higher data rate.

    what is the best virus remover and protector for 10.5.8 version of mac os x???  I  have this thing called macprotector that keeps popping up and trying to get into my computer.  I have heard of a maleware remover...

    First you do NOT I repeat DO NOT have a virus, currently there are no virus's for OS X.  This means you do not need antivirus software, if you insist on installing antivirus software then I'd recommend ClamXav. You have what is called a Trojan, the primary difference between the two is the user has to give permission for a Trojan to download and install itself. The one you got is going around right now however the good news it's quite easy to get rid of. Please read the following article for instructions.

  • What Is The Difference With FInal Cut Studio 2 Academic To Full Version?

    Hi there I just got a Macbook Pro and plan on buying Final Cut Studio 2 but found the Academic version cheaper and was wondering what the difference is especially with quality and the handling of hd video Sony EX HD to be exact). Thank you for any responses.

    The software is the same; the only difference is that you cannot upgrade an academic version and you have to be able to qualify for the academic pricing (students and teachers).

  • What's the best way to move my contacts from my current iPhone5 to another iPhone?

    What's the best way to move my contacts from my current iPhone5 to another iPhone?

    Use iCloud. First, on your iPhone, open Settings > iCloud, and enable Contacts, so your contacts will appear on all your devices logged in iCloud.
    Then, on the other iPhone, open Settings > iCloud, log in with your Apple ID and enable Contacts, so they will show up on this phone.

    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It looks like they do still have it:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
    If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    Lion/101.7 System requirements
        •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
        •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
        •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
        •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
    Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
    Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.
    It looks like Apple will have Lion available on USB drives for $69...
