    Latest OS update

    We both have iphone 4 and ipad 2. My husband did the new update tonight and ruined his phone and ipad.

    What we learned is some phones and ipads did not have enough memory for the new update and it messes up programs and stored items like photos, other issues too, but too technical for me to discuss.

    I didn't do the update and the tech advised me not to.

    Basically we were told a $600 ipad and $400 phone are pretty much useless now.

    The tech said they maybe OK if he goes back to factory settings but he'll lose everything on them. He has the last photos of his parents before they died last year on there.

    He can't get the phone to do anything except call out and receive a call. No Bluetooth, no facetime, no camera, games, search bar, nothing.

    He's pretty good with that stuff too, so when I see him having trouble, I know it's trouble.

    These phones don't have a sim card. But I did suggest he go to Walgreens and plug it in and try to get the photos on a disc. We'll try that tomorrow. Keeping fingers crossed.

    You can't access it through iTunes or directly to the computer?

    We have a brand new computer system, it could run a small country. I'd be afraid to hook either one up to it. That's all we need, the computer shot too. Good grief, he'd have a stroke. He needs it for
    his work.
