Apple spent millions upgrading their servers since iOS 4, but still with today's rollout of iOS 5, it was not enough
Apple had problems during the last big update, and afterwards and with the planned launch of iCLOUD, they spent millions on brand-new servers, but it seems iOS 5 was just too much for the world's internet, with tons of people screaming left and right, about 'bricked' phones, lost 'music, video, photos', you name it nothing but hair-pulling tension.
The most common error suffered by users was Error 3200, which Apple reps were telling users was a result of so many users all over the world pinging Apple for the update at the same time, according to Mashable.
But the problems didn’t just end with not being able to connect to Apple’s servers and download the new iOS software. Some users ran into more serious issues, such as the upgrade stalling and devices being wiped of their apps, music, photos and other data. From the outcry on Twitter, it seems like many users had their devices hit pretty hard by the update, and some were even seemingly unusable for a short time.
And the second is alot of people rush to upgrade just to try out the new Siri feature, were you can talk to your iPhone and get help, instead they got this:
Siri voice assistant is silent
Siri was one of the hottest new features Apple unveiled. Many iOS users rushed to download the iOS 5 update in hopes of trying Siri out, only to discover it's nowhere to be found.
The solution: This is more of a misunderstanding than a problem. Siri is only available on the iPhone 4S for now because it takes advantage of the new iPhone's upgraded hardware. But there are some efforts underway to port Siri over to the iPhone 4 that may be worth keeping an eye on.
So there you have it, I have made my own top 5 list of what the 5 stands for in the new iOS update:
5 - Hours you going to spend today trying to unbrick your valuable iPhone
5 - Days you going to call in sick, when you find out you lost all your data!
5 - The remaining hairs on your head, after you go mad over Error #3200!
5 - Days you should have waited, as maybe there will be an iOS v5.1 soon!
5 - Amount of feet your PC is going to fly, after you throw it in panic mode!
