My first post, here goes. Welcome to you all. After some serious and not so serious deliberation as well as a prod from some close acquaintances I am starting a blog.
In this blog I will try to keep things simple, it will cover mostly idevices and apps. How to's, tweaks, hints and best practices. There is a lot of information out there already and my aim is make it easy and accessible to all, not just the hardcore power users.
Tip for today, if you haven't yet upgraded to iOS5 and iTunes 10.5 I suggest you get cracking. iOS5 for iPhone (3GS, 4 and 4S), iPad (1 and 2) and iPod (3rd and 4th gen) needs iTunes to be version 10.5 so upgrade this first.
On Windows in iTunes go to Help and select check for updates.
On the Mac in iTunes go to iTunes and select check for updates.
Once iTunes is updated plug in your idevice, do a backup and click on the update software button. iTunes will download the latest iOS (currently 5) and update your device.
These updates are big so it will take a while depending on your internet speed. Once the device has rebooted and all your software is back your device should be back to how it was and fully updated. My next post will be on some of the awesome new features of iOS5.
Often iTunes will automatically want to update itself see screenshots below;
