I downloaded iOS 5 but I only got some of the features. Plus, when I downloaded it once, it stopped halfway through and i had to restart and when i finally got it to download all the way, it had deleted everything on my iphone 4 and i had to completeley re-download everything. So now, I just spent about two and a half hours of my night downloading a software that isnt even giving me all the features it should. any suggestions.

Lucky you. Don't upgrade to iOS5. I'm having an iPod 3rd Generation and iOS5 makes a lot of apps massively slower, takes more space. Also since the Upgrade just half of my photos get synced, the photo folders became a mess on my iPod. Deleting all of them and redo didn't help. iCloud does not work to sync photos between a PC and the iPod. Also I had to restore the iPod completely since it crashed right after the update and in the first attempt, some music was missing. It looks like Apple should have waited for the iPhone 5 and not doing a quick fix with the iPhone 4S and serve us a beta version of their iOS.
