Nobody else is having problems with Wifi Sync? It tells me that it's waiting for my MBP to become available. Also, iCloud won't let me set up an e-mail address (but maybe that's because the service isn't live yet?)

Try this:

Hey.

If I install the GM will it work on an european iPhone just like on a US one? Will I be able to send and receive calls?

Next tuesday when the official one releases will I need to install it again? And what about iTunes? Will the new iTunes next week show up on OS X software update?

Thanks!

Fine here - O2-UK.

Installing iTunes beta 9, when the final version comes for download, do you reckon it'll upgrade fine and subsequent versions? I don't want to risk my music and everything else to be fair, but i do want iOS 5 soon as :p
 
I've got the option.

Ditto, I still have the Personal Hotspot option (Vodafone in the UK). Everything else works well, other than the fact you can't appear to delete an email address in Facetime.

can anyone help me find itunes 10.5 beta 9 for windows? many links around to beta 9 .dmg file. i can't use that on windows. thanks....

There isn't one. Windows only went up to beta 7.

----------

Newstand won't go into a folder. This is crap!

Agree, annoying. I have no interest in it, so I want to hide it away in a folder but can't.

Did you do a backup before you upgraded? If not restore one of your previous backups which contain your contacts.

The restore process ends with a synchronisation so the latest backup available will often be blank.
 
I updated 3GS to iOS5 GM, non-dev and no UDID. I can't seem to find a way to delete photos from photostream (I activated icloud and it seems to work fine, I can even log in at icloud.com, though photostream doesn't show up there). Also, I can't seem to make reminders be location aware, my only option is to have a reminder for a certain day/time.

yes I backed it up before, it even tells me the time of that backup, but with this version of iTunes when I click restore from backup its only showing me the last backup unlike several past backups like I'm accustomed to

If you right click on the iPhone name in iTunes (I assume this works in Windows, I only have it on Mac) then click "Restore from backup", you should get a list of recent backups there.
 
... I just read all threads to make sure this wasn't a repost. Personal Hotspots is missing from GM!! It's no where in the settings... can't tether!! This is the GM build??:eek:

Can anybody else confirm they have or do not have personal hot spot for tethering?:confused:

I ran into the same issue back in beta 7. No matter what I did or tried, tethering was missing from my iPhone. Now with the GM release I got it back.

Try updating your APN settings and resetting your network settings. (Settings>General>Reset>Reset network settings). That might help.
 
I might be an idiot, but I haven't got that nifty bypass-lock-screen-to-take-a-picture button. What gives?

I learned that you have to double-click the home button for it to show. FWIW, this feature does not seem to work on the iPad 2
 
is it possible now to create a @me.com email address and convert my previous @gmail.com over to it so my iTunes store money credit is on that account?
 
Since upgrading to GM I now no longer have Personal Hotspot. On Orange in UK. Anyone else lost this ?

That's odd. I'm using iTunes beta 9 (Mac) which does so all of my historical backups.
