Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hey guys,
Sharing this information I have for all of you trying to update to IOS 5 today in Australia.
The new iOS5 update would be available 12 October 2011 US time, so would be available in Australia nearly tomorrow. I have confirmed this with Apple Tech guy on phone.
Looking forward to download it as soon it becomes available here 🙂
Please share all your thoughts on this new software update by APPLE.
Cheers!
iPhone 4, Windows 7

hey Guys,
I am in Sydney and have already downloaded it this morning....
Try closing itunes and rebooting your system.
please be noted that IOS 5 is only available to Iphone 3GS, iphone 4 and Ipod devices, please check compatibility with your device on Apple site before updating.
IOS 5 is out already.
Can not see Camera app right from the Lock screen ......
And iPad, and iPad 2.
And actually, the only supported iPods are the 3rd and 4th Gen. iPod touch
Did you double click the home button?

I have just downloaded iOS 5 using iTunes (while my iPhone 3GS was connected and being synced) and now iTunes does not recognise my phone and my phone version is still 4.3.5
At least it still works. What is the best thing to do? Should I just restore?
Cheers
NOT happy with IOS5! Updated and now my iPod 3G won't restore the data! NOT HAPPY AT ALL! DON'T DO IT!
Mine won't even recognise the iPod.
Let's get real here, just updated to 5.0.1 with improved Siri for Australia. Siri is hopeless, like actually hopeless, get past the coolness and the fact it is Beta. but why is apple trying to be like google who doesn't use Beta, their philosophy is more like, roll it out while were not even sure ourselves, and tweak it as we go, thus resulting in a below par user experience. Apple says we can't build a $500 computer that's good, well guess what you can't build a 999 dollar smartphone that really differentiates itself.
Siri does work for me, but it's under the most extreme conditions, I have to talk so profoundly clear and over exaggerate parts of words just so it can attempt to understand me, only to be given a "I'm sorry, but I can only look for businesses and locations in the united states".
Then there's the noise issue, forget any subtle background noise, living by the beach means Siri fails epically every time, yet in an advertisement for Siri, they show a guy on a morning jog and rescheduling meetings, replying to messages etc. how does that work?
When I switch to US English, Siri shines, smashing out requests left right and centre, not even having to give full details to end up with astounding results.
Come on Apple, get english Australia Siri to a "wowable" state.. Remember that old adage "it just works"
Apple ios 5 update today in Australia
