Slow iOS 5 upgrade: Apple Server overwhelmed by errors

IOS 5 has been officially released, and the majority of fruit powders must have been excited and eager to try, ready to upgrade their own devices. However, it is slow. According to foreign media reports, many people encounter problems when upgrading their iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch: internal errors occurred when iTunes tried to activate the device. This problem is very common and has become a hot topic on Twitter.

This problem appears to have occurred when iTunes contacted Apple's server for verification and activation upgrade. It may be because the Apple Server is overloaded and only processes half of the requests. This information is provided by Jay Freeman (also known as Saurik), iPhone's jailer and founder of the Cydia App Store:

To the person who encountered an internal error (5.0) When upgrading iOS 3200: The request failed because the server load on apple is too high.

The following is an internal error of 3200:

However, many people reported that the upgrade was successful after five to ten retries.

Therefore, this issue may be caused by server overload. The only solution is to sit down and have a cup of coffee and try again, or click your mouse crazy until it succeeds.

I hope this event does not pave the way for Apple's iCloud. Obviously, iOS 5 depends on Apple's cloud server to cope with such a large amount of traffic. Apple's last cloud-based adventure, Mobile Me, is one of the rare setbacks that the company has suffered.
