Right, I see it now in the dev portal. There is also itunes 8.2 there.

lostfan916 · Apr 28, 2009, 10:04 PM

Wow, I really thought it wasn't coming out.

New beta and new iTunes.... oh boy, it's going to be a looooooooong night here at Macrumors.

Oh my, GREAT, BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD FOR THE APP I AM MAKING.

NOW I HAVE TO RE-WRITE THE CODE FROM SCRATCH!

Not sure if it was in the previous release notes for beta 3, but in beta 4 it says the following re: mms and tethering.

Quote:

MMS and Tethering
During the beta period, MMS and device tethering are not supported, and should not be used.

Why?

nicheco · Apr 28, 2009, 10:12 PM

looks like you have to update to itunes 8.2 to activate beta 4.

The General · Apr 28, 2009, 10:13 PM

What's the word on emoji and tethering?

ravensfan55 · Apr 28, 2009, 10:20 PM

Downloading it now....

Probably won't update until tomorrow.

samson080 · Apr 28, 2009, 10:22 PM

Quick thing I noticed - it no longer lets you sync notes - it says that syncing notes requires OSX 10.5.7 or later...

anjinhamarota · Apr 28, 2009, 10:23 PM

Finally!

samson080 · Apr 28, 2009, 10:24 PM

Also, store is no longer empty - now has "view account" and "sign out" button options.

Guess that means we'll be seeing it tonight/tomorrow. Most likely tomorrow.

anjinhamarota · Apr 28, 2009, 10:27 PM

At least for me:

alexbates · Apr 28, 2009, 10:29 PM

Great...I can't wait to hear what all is new with beta 4.

Yeah, It will be on the front page any minute now... and loads of comments for about 4 hours.

samson080 · Apr 28, 2009, 10:36 PM

MMS and tethering still show up for me with modified carrier file. My MMS hasn't worked for a couple weeks though and I haven't bothered to fix it so I can't tell if the upgrade disabled it otherwise. But the MMS options are still enabled in settings.

thisisarcadia · Apr 28, 2009, 10:45 PM

i tether pretty heavily, has anybody tried and used tethering with the new beta?

That was stated in the release notes of every beta.

nicheco · Apr 28, 2009, 10:51 PM

i didn't see much different in the settings, and there's no tethering app... where is it located?

MacRumors · Apr 28, 2009, 10:51 PM

Continuing a pattern of biweekly releases, Apple tonight seeded the fourth beta version of iPhone OS 3.0 to developers. Apple also issued a developer pre-release version of iTunes 8.2, which is required to activate the new beta. No new features in the fourth beta version have been revealed as of yet.

The iPhone OS 3.0 was first demonstrated at a media event in mid-March and will bring over 100 new features to users. The iPhone OS 3.0 is expected to be a major focus of Apple's sold out Worldwide Developers Conference to be held in San Francisco in June.

I can't wait to see the new features. Hopefully, its much more stable compared to how Beta 1 was.

Who guessed it

The "Store" option in settings now manages your App Store account.

My MMS still works.
