carbonel: (xkcd song)
Oh, frabjous day! Stanza was updated for iOS5 after all! After the OS update, it kept crashing back to the main screen, but after I deleted it and reinstalled it, it was back to its old self, albeit minus all my settings and books. I'm not sure who I would send a thank-you note to, but I feel I should. Especially since there's a note in Wikipedia that this is really, for sure, the last update; I'd like to change that, if possible.

On the other hand, the update to iOS5 was not entirely successful. I got an error message when the upgrade was done, then it tried to restore from backup twice, and I got another error message. I finally just started up the iPad, and all my purchased and installed apps seem to be there, but it seemed to be treating the iPad as a new setup, though it new my e-mail address.

I have no idea how to reconcile it with my desktop computer. I think what's needed at this point is to tell the desktop that the iPad is the canonical device, and the creation of the new restore data should come from there. But I'm not sure. At this point, I'm nervous about plugging it in to the desktop computer, because it took several hours to get where we (me and my iPad, that is) are now.
