MacMost Forum / IOS 5 and the iPhone 4

After upgrading to iOS 5 (iPhone 4) and watching your video 617, I see that in my phone settings the iCloud and Twitter tabs are greyed out and I can do nothing with them. I registered for iCloud when I updated to Lion 10.7.2 and that seemed to go okay. Any suggestions or things I can do to get them back? —–

  1. What do you mean by “tabs”? Do you mean the list in your Settings app?
    I would go into Settings and select iCloud and then set it up in there. But I don’t know what to do if those are greyed out.
    Searching around it seems a few people are reporting this.
    I’d try the standard thing: restart, resync, maybe even a backup and restore.

    Gary-what I did (trial and error) was go to “Settings”, “General”, then “Restrictions”. In there I had to Allow Changes to the Accounts tab. That un-grayed the two tabs of iCloud and Twitter, then set them up as normal.
    One other quick note – in your video you showed a twitter icon in launchpad, I did not get that one added. Take care!

    your video 617 titled IOS 5, First Look.

    • Right. I understand that. But your comment is about LaunchPad, which isn’t shown in that video (it is a Mac feature, and I’m showing the iPad). So I’m confused as to whether you are asking about the Mac or the iPad.
