Nice, hopefully it'll fix the error 5002 when I try to check for iPhone app updates.

edit: Nope.

runplaysleeprun · Jul 30, 2008, 09:36 PM

Installing now. i was wondering why i hadn't heard of this update when i opened itunes and it prompted me. i guess its brand-spankin.

Sky Blue · Jul 30, 2008, 09:40 PM

first thing I've noticed, downloaded apps all have rounded corners. Some (like Dizzy Bee) used to be square.

jrbsman · Jul 30, 2008, 09:46 PM

I wonder if this update will solve the long iPhone backup problems?

desenso · Jul 30, 2008, 09:47 PM

Pretty much every app that has released an update now shows up as having an update available for me, even the apps that were actually updated on the phone. Hopefully this is fixes the update problems.

voicegy · Jul 30, 2008, 09:47 PM

Done. Safari seems snappier!

So does this patch being able to install pirates apps via cracked .ipa's?

Rychy · 10:08 PM

I've been having quite a few problems with iTunes... crashing, no audio, iPhone things. Hopefully this fixes some of those things. The amount of problems this whole iPhone 2.0 software is causing is ridiculous.

desenso · Jul 30, 2008, 09:50 PM

Began a sync of the phone. BoxOffice has been "updating" for about the last 7 minutes. Ridiculous.

dt1611 · Jul 30, 2008, 09:51 PM

My iPhone was just plugged in and is now doing a backup...prolly for the next hour

e.m. · Jul 30, 2008, 09:54 PM

updated versions of apps still doesn't delete older versions. i hope this isn't by design.

In Finder, look in the mobile apps folder in your itunes folder.

iJawn108 · Jul 30, 2008, 09:56 PM

:O its so fast now, it plays the songs i want before i even know i want to play them

nsbio · Jul 30, 2008, 09:57 PM

7.7.1 seems to have fixed jittery playback of internet streams through Airtunes for me! The bug appeared in 7.5 and persisted through 7.7. Late is better than never, I guess.

That's slightly stupid. Guess I'll go in and delete the old ones...

I thought it was just me getting that, thank goodness!

Back-ups still take forever...

In fact this is the longest it has ever taken!!

alexlovesmacs · Jul 30, 2008, 10:01 PM

I'm really happy now i can register my shuffle now!

e.m. · Jul 30, 2008, 10:02 PM

itunes is still reporting incorrect number of updates available for me. and it also reports there's updates available for apps that i've already updated.

Same here.

NC MacGuy · Jul 30, 2008, 10:04 PM

Okay, I'm going to trust you guys. But, the last three "updates" to iTunes totally screwed me. A lot of the movies I ripped won't play, even though they did pre-"update." I imagine they still won't...

Here goes nothin'.

astromoose · Jul 30, 2008, 10:06 PM

i installed the update and then plugged the phone in and it immediately started a backup that is taking forever.
