I can't sync through wifi too, then I called my friend to ask, he mentioned iCloud wireless sync only works with OS Lion at the moment, is that true?
I'm currently using the OS Snow Leopard and I can't sync through through iCloud as well.

im nt sure about OS Snow Leopard, but wireless sync worked on my pc running on Windows 7 32-bit.

Have you check the "Sync with this iphone over wifi" field? if yes

Try to disconnect your iphone from wifi, then close itunes.

then open itunes again, and connect your iphone to your wifi, see if itunes detects your iphone wirelessly

once detected, connect your iphone to a power source (preferably a charger), see if your iphone syncs automatically

omg it really does work! thanks a million!

another question to ask, I add an event in iPhone or in my iCal, it does not sync through? i clicked the sync button too and it does not go through.

by right it should automatically sync without me clicking the sync button right?
*
by right it should happen automatically without actually syncing as it happens over the cloud, are your devices all connected to wifi & iCloud enabled? (note that iCloud and wifi sync are different thing)

it's in your download folder, by default using internet browser should be C:\Users\User name\Downloads for windows 7

Some of my purchased ebooks and apps also gone.

Why wanna restore?...is it restore mean downgrade back to 4.3 ...sorry ...noob at this  doh.gif

restore means reinstalling all the apps that u backuped before you upgrade (unless of course, u choose nt to backup when u do the update, in which case, nobody can help u)

but since u purchased them, u can always redl ur apps and ebooks from appstore and ibooks

I don't quite understand the difference between iCloud backup and iTunes backup. Are they the same thing, and the only difference is that with iCloud, you can restore your backup even though you are far away from your iTunes/PC/Mac?

Say I want to restore my phone to a previous backup, and I'm not near to my PC, how do I restore using iCloud? I don't see any options in settings that allows me to do so.

Another thing I don't know is sending an iMessage. I start the Messages app > new message > type a friend's name who is on iOS 5, and it does not automatically show the option to send an iMessage, only a normal SMS. However, once I have sent a normal sms to that person, he or she can reply using an iMessage, after which I can also continue messaging through iMessage. But if I decide to send a message by clicking the 'new message' button again, it only allow me to send an SMS.
*
did u enable iMessage in your settings?

i just did another test, indeed the first msg is sent as text, im nt sure why.....maybe someone familiar with the system behind imessage can help.

also, if i sent a text to a friend with iOS5, automatically it will be sent as iMessage, so my question is, what if my friend has his data turned off at that time, will my phone detects it and switch to normal text?

Even iPhone 4G cant support SIRI. You can see video on this link showing SIRI running on iPhone4. Its sluggish.

Hi, I downloaded the IPSW file from the link provided here in this thread.  But I can't find the iPhone Software Updates folder,

Under the following folder:  Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes  what I can see are:

\Cookies
\iPhone Carrier Support
\iTunes Plug-ins

there is no \iPhone Software Updates

So far I did not update my iOS before, I am still on iOS 4.3.1, is it becoz I did not update iOS before hence there is no \iPhone Software Updates folder?  Can I manually create the folder and put the IPSW file there?

tq

alternatively, you can just shift+ update/restore to bring up the window to browse for your downloaded ipsw

seems that location based only works on iphone 4 and 4s

anyway, the location based is a great one, but totally unable to find custom address is just so damned lame.

for example, if you want it to reminds you to do something when you reach KLCC, you have to key in the address of KLCC at one of your contact list, then only you can choose it

you can't key in KLCC at the location in reminders....sigh
*
the purpose of only allowing u adding address of your contacts is to be compatible with Siri, cuz Siri will pull the address from your contacts if you wanna set a location based reminder

alternatively, u can always go to maps and add the location to your contact
