Apple Releases iOS 5 with Notification Center, iMessage, Twitter, and More

[(marc)]

Wow - battery life absolutely SUCKS. My iPhone lost 10% battery during 5 minutes just sitting there. Yes, I'm mad.

I have the GM installed and this version seems to be the same build. But if you try to check for a software update from within iOS 5 (GM), it says the service is unavailable. Anyone else having this problem?

yup. same here.

I'm sad there is no Siri on the iPad 2.

Same here. I'm wondering if a restore will fix it.

It's sooooooo slow :-( And the Internet is not the problem, I think Apple servers are getting quite a lot of requests for this update

 

[Bigskygangsta]

I will add though...

It took me forever to download this on my dial-up modem running through AOL.

 

[yoganandaz]

Available for the Apple TV as well

Anyone know if the iOS5 AppleTV update works on the first generation AppleTV?

 

[alirz]

If you have the GM version form developer.apple.com, do I still need to upgrade, because it says i'm up to date???!?!?

I would like to know the same. Im running the GM and it tells me that im upto date.

Edit: Nevermind, the new release seems to be the same as GM. No need to restore/up and JB

Anyone check the MD5 values against the GM, sometimes Apple will release a slightly different version for the general release with the same build number as the GM.

downloading in Boston. looks like its slowing down. first 20 secs showed 3min remaining but now I'm 25% into the download and it's showing 11 minutes remaining.

I've got the same thing. It's quite a slap in the face.

 

[Mochi Hana]

Is this the same build number as the GM?

 

[EmbraceTheOne]

I gave up downloading. I'll download later after my classes.
It was at 3 hours…..

Apple's servers are really getting hammered...the download times are fluctuating drastically...

Downloading these updates simultaneously...on my MBP 13"

1. Lion Recovery Update 1.0 (452.5 MB)
2. Mac OS X Update 10.7.2 (435.5 MB)

10.7.2

holy overwhelmed servers batman. just watched my lion 10.7.2 download time go from 14 minutes to 8 hours.

 

[END3R]

anyone have a direct link.

iTunes store is being filtered at my place of employment.

Hate that. They did that here for the longest time, too. Sorry, no link. I'm not seeing the update in iTunes, I only see 4.3.5 update.

 

[TMar]

where do you get iCloud control panel for windows?

GM icloud control panel for windows.

 

[throne]

If the GM is the same as the official release, does the official release also still have Newsstand blocked?

 

[parish]

Started with 36mins left and 10 mins later it's now 57 mins
