And even though iMessage is superbly integrated into the Messages section, it doesn't by default show read/delivery reports. Another point there to BBM.

I think group chat is possible, coz it can add multiple recipients, though i did not try chatting with more than one person till now. And its showing delivery messages are seen.

Guys,

Any updates on the performance of iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS. I don't want to upgrade and then stuck in a situation like it happened with iOS 4 on iPhone 3G.

Reports say its improved.

I updated iTunes & installed IOS 5 on my iPad but strangely it didn't reinstall my apps & its not syncing with my PC when plugged in(to wall charger) to charge. Any idea what's wrong.

The UI looks slightly different & I like the 4 finger swipe :)

=======
Would have to spend lot of time installing stuff all over again.:Frustrati

Just goto diff tabs like apps, pics, song etc and check the box on top and it will sync back at next sync. I think issue happened if you activate icloud before the first sync, just a guess.

Jaggu, I simply followed the instructions & followed every step.

How will I activate icloud before syncing?

The pics & songs are there, its just the apps.

Also which check box are you referring to? I dont see any in apps folder in itunes.

Another point did you upgrade using a mac? I am on win7 with itunes 64 bit version.

If you set up the phone before syncing, iOS 5 allows this like a regular mobile you can set up iCloud.

Referring to this.

Yes iPhone 4 and iPad 2 on MBP and iPad 1 with Win XP upgrade.

Can you see tabs at the bottom of the screen, that will give you various option to call.

I don't know how it works.
Guys, If you know something, Please post here.

Thank you members. Finally I could configure the skype.It was there after down load and the icon was hidden on the right side of the other icon.When I slide d the other icons to left I found and dragged all below the others. I did Skype test it did well but video is not tested.I use it with wi fi connection only.It is true if we explore apple store we can find lots of Free soft wares. I am lucky with 32Gb.Here is the screen shot

Here are a couple of links that might help you:

How To: iOS 5 Safari Reader And Reading List -- AppAdvice

[iOS 5 beta] Safari browser and Safari Reader - YouTube

However, to put in short, if you are reading an article, tap on the Reader icon to see a readable version of the article.

On the other hand, the Reading List is for emulating the "ReadItLater" or "Instapaper" apps. You can mark an article for reading later and the article will be synced across all your iOS devices.

is it possible in iPhone4? I think it's possible. Need to check with Picture site. I tried with wordpress before.
Again Reader Icon not comes with all web sites and there's might be some limitation for the sites to be shown with Reader Icon in the URL Tab.
In Android Mobiles. If you pinch and zoom, the contents are resized and clutter free. seems, it won't possible in iOS5.

That is what I was talking about. The "Reader" feature.

The "Reader" feature will work on any iOS device running iOS5.

Reader icon only appears on web pages which have a lot of textual content, for example, blogs and news sites. It makes sense to have it only on these websites.

You can pinch and zoom even in Safari.

seems , you misinterpreted.
I know, Safari has Pinch and Zoom , But Android do some more as if you zoom the page is clutter free and we can still read all contents without horizontal scrolling.
Everything will be aligned vertically as what happen if we click Reader Icon in iOS.
Have you tried it in Andorid mobiles especially HTC Desire S.

Hi all,

I updated to 'ios 5' a couple of days ago. However, after the update, my iPod has reset ie., it is asking me to connect to iTunes. The trouble is iTunes is not recognizing the device :Shockked: (the iTunes and USB cable screen continue to appear). I've tried everything in the book but in vain.

Has anyone faced similar issues after the update? Please let me know the solution if so.
