Having loads of snags trying to update to iOS 5.0 on my 3GS with the error -43 coming up each time. Got NO help from Apple Support. Want to try the suggestion listed here but don't want to lose any info, apps, emails, texts, contacts, notes, music etc on the iPhone. I don't think an upgrade should force you to lose any info on the phone. Can someone tell me exactly what is lost if you do a manual back up and then carry out the update. Thannks in advance for the help. I am pulling my hair out here.


Thanks Apple for Nothing.
