I use my ipad2 for web browsing, games and book reading, that's about it. I didn't care to update the IOS since the new features don't matter to me. Yesterday I finally tried to update to 5.1.1 just for the heck of it, it turned out to be a bad idea, should have known better.
1) All the 3rd party apps could not start after the update.
A quick search pointed at the solution of deleting and reinstalling one app. I did that, it fixed 90% of the problem. I have few apps just wouldn't start no matter what. I can't delete and reinstall those because I would lose the game progress.
2) The media didn't get copied over.
I thought the backup and restore would make everything the same as before, but nope. I have contacts, calendar and etc, but movies and photos were completely wiped out.
3) I syn'ed again to copy from iPhoto.
All events lost the original key photo, instead its showing the 1st picture in every event as cover.
No biggie, I figured I will just manually set the key photo again. Guess what, this is the part that really made me laugh, when you go to an event, pick a photo, it will let you email, let you message, let you assign to contact, let you use as wallpaper, it will even let you f&cking tweet, but it won't let you set it as key photo. What a joke.
You would think a company of Apple's caliber, will make things work smoothly, is it that hard to issue a software update that works without hassle?
No gonna do any more updates unless its absolutely necessary in the future, LOL.
