Features of iOS 5 Video: www.youtube.com iOS 5 iPhone 4 Bootup Time: www.youtube.com Apple says that iOS 5 includes more than 200 new features. These are the nine that matter. Software Updates Over Wi-Fi. Android users have long enjoyed wireless syncing and software updates. Apple had to catch up and finally has. The need to connect one’s iOS device to one’s computer with a cable only serves to remind users how iOS limits them. Good riddance. Camera Software Improvements You can now launch the iPhone/iPod touch 4th generation camera by double clicking the home button. And you can take a picture using the Volume Up button. Score one for simplicity. The software update also adds optional grid lines to help frame shots, pinch-to-zoom support in the preview screen, the ability to swipe to the camera roll from the preview screen, and the ability to tap and hold to lock focus and exposure. (The iPad 2 and iPod touch 4th generation support only exposure lock, not focus lock.) [ Apple's iPhone 4S arrives on Friday, October 14. Is it worth considering? ] iCloud Support While iCloud is not well-suited for backing up lots of data–Apple offers only up to 50 GB–users with a modest number of images and media files should find the service a convenient way to make their files available across all of their iOS and Mac OS X Lion devices.

Except if you have a 1st gen iPod Touch, you have to pay for iOS 3.x and you cannot get 4.x or 5.x.

Is your iPhone Jail broken? Try restoring it to factory settings and then updating it?

My iPod was plugged into my computer and was on the “backing up your iPod for the update” window ALL FREAKING NIGHT. 12 hours and it made VERY little progress, I’ve done software updates where it took just a few hours, but I tried this one and it didn’t make it through the backing up step before I got really frustrated and unplugged it. I have an iPod 4G 32gig, and the storage is almost full on it, maybe that had something to do with it, but Ive tried this download a few timed and it barely mak

Um, last i checked, ANY ios for your device is already FREE. The only thing you’ll spend money on is the device, the computer to sync it with, and internet.
