If you get a 3200 error while trying to update to iOS 5 just go to Edit -> Preferences -> Devices -> Delete Backup then try again. It will make a new backup so don't worry. I tried to update for hours before I found that solution somewhere.

mine worked first try this morning... although got an error 3004, but once it said it failed and needed to restore from last backup - it was magically iOS5.

no complaints from me!

I updated earlier with a few errors on updating after it downloaded, but it ended up working after a little bit.

Had to trash my mac's network settings (had a failed to connect with server during authentification problem).

Will have to jailbreak this to get my gestures back but i'll wait for the untethered one.

BTW, the mute button you get by double tapping home and swiping left seems dead

Took me about 10 tries before it finally worked. When it was done none of my podcasts would play so I unchecked them, synced, checked them again and synced. They worked after that.

it took about 5 or 6 tries to restore my settings and data on the phone after installing the new IOS, but alas it all came back

tried since last evening
it seems to get stuck during the "backing up your iphone" stage - it takes so long!

perhaps my 32GB iphone 4 is a bit too full, im gonna clear out the apps and photos first before trying again

Everyone is trying to update at the same time. I just updated 2 iPhone 4's and and 2 iPad 2's it took me two tries for all of them. The first was the longest as it had to download the software and backup the devices. After it failed with validating the restore I simple tried again and it went through in about 5 mins for the phones and 5-10 for the iPads.

Failed to update. It also is not allowing me to restore the phone which is going to remove all my apps and shiz anyway.

Blows.

It will get there eventually Gryz.

My problem now is, apparently when you switch to iCloud some Mail services will be lost such as syncing Mailboxes and Smartboxes... These organise my whole life for me.

Anyone gone from MobileMe to iCloud yet..?

My download froze with ten minutes left after I have been waiting for 2 hours.

Trying it again.

Phew... Full restore and i havent lost a single thing.

Right time to get into the iOS5 thing and see whats what.

I never had mobileme cos I haven't had an iPhone before and all my stuff is on my MBP so it seemed a little pointless, so thankfully I won't have any switchover problems.

Yeah im looking forward to seeing how iCloud will have screwed up my MobileMe account.
Purposely not upgrading my MacMini in case iOS5 has borked my Mac Mail cus my whole f*cking world is in that account.

iTunes update, OSX update, iOS5 update all in one go was not a smart move.

On a different but related subject, I just updated to OSX 10.7.2. It's killed my black menu bar but not much else. Looking forward to seeing what iCloud can do for me.

Mine said "cannot be restored" but when you return to the Overview window in iTunes it gives you the choice to restore the phone.

Its taking ages and has rebooted the phone about 4 times.

It said my contacts and texts would be restored. I doubt the photos will be there (mostly backed up) but i will lose some, unfortunatlely i havent synced the phone in a few weeks so ill lose a bit of stuff including my iMaschine projects (apart from one), this is unless i synced and i cannot remember doing it. I dont have auto sync on.

Watching the blue progress bar on the other mac from across the room is not much fun.

well, this is so far unsuccessful. I keep getting internal error messages when trying "preparing the iphone for update", and sometimes unable to verify software.
