Apple Releases iOS 4.3.5 to Address Security Issue With Certificate Validation

[BreuerEditor]

got an error 9006 on updating a 4th gen iPod Touch. Trying again...

 

[mms13]

takes 10 minutes to download and 5 minutes to update.

is that such a burden?

And then over an hour to resync all my stuff

Don't do a restore when updating then...

 

[frunkis54]

wow this the first time its gone all the way to .5

 

[exiledzuko]

um... after iOS update to 4.3.5 on my iPhone 4, my location services can no longer find exactly where I am. it says I'm 2 towns away. I've tried changing apps, and even using the maps app. is this happening to anybody else?

Why would you possibly need to re-sync everything? Are you doing a full restore? If so, why?

 

[rdstoll]

Even Microsoft doesn't push this many "security fixes". Did Apple fanboys always laugh at MSFT for stuff like this?

 

[tethead]

damn, wish all these point releases were coming in OTA instead... can't wait for iOS 5!!!

 

[applebro24]

wonder if it will allow people to upgrade to the iOS 5 beta as the previous one seemed to prevent it.
error 20 etc..

I am curious as well, any takers?

 

[GENTLEB]

Why in the heck hasn't Apple merged the trees yet? Is it *that* hard?

Verizon users are kind of getting the short end of the stick and that annoys me.

what are we missing out on?

 

[jpetticrew]

what are we missing out on?

iTunes in the cloud mostly.

and yet verizon is still stuck on 4.2.7, wtf

 

[manu chao]

came up as 666.6 mb download... careful! 666!

As did the previous update if I remember it correctly.

and yet verizon is still stuck on 4.2.7, wtf

Verizon is not stuck on 4.2.7, it is already at 4.2.9. If history is any guide there will be a 4.2.10 update today as well.

7 February/9 March: 4.2.5 = 4.3 (CDMA, personal hotspot)
10 February/25 March: 4.2.6 = 4.3.1 (separate hardware specific bug fixes)
14 April: 4.2.7 = 4.3.2 (bug/security fixes)
4 May: 4.2.8 = 4.3.3 (location database fix)
15 July: 4.2.9 = 4.3.4 (pdf fix)
25 July: 4.2.10 = 4.3.5 (certificate fix)

 

[cozmot]

Does anybody go through the trouble to update to these pointless releases?
There hasn't been anything new since 4.3.0...

"Pointless"? Are you kidding? Do you even know what certificate validation means?

 

[jclardy]

Can't wait for iOS5 and delta updates.

Hahahahaha!

4.2.10 is out for Verizon users as well. You are quite a lot behind.

no we laugh at windows users who have to reinstall their OS every 7 days to keep it virus free. LOL

 

[rhett7660]

Always good to see security updates.

Small aside, is anyone surprised Apple hasn't made the GSM and CDMA models on the same version number yet? I suppose they will with iOS 5.

I too was wondering. Hopefully this is all taken care of when 5 comes out.

 

[ghostface147]

Now that I've delta updated to iOS 5 beta 4 over the air, these minor updates that require a huge download and an hour long restore process are completely laughable.

Aren't they though? Oh well, it's coming and that's all that matters.

 

[cvaldes]

"Pointless"? Are you kidding? Do you even know what certificate validation means?

Clearly, he does not.

 

[Awjvail]

I wonder if they're going to push out an OTA update for iOS 5? I would assume these security issues exist in the beta as well.

 

[bushido]

"Pointless"? Are you kidding? Do you even know what certificate validation means?

who cares, its not like i have anything of value on it. its just a phone, my porn is stored elsewhere and i doubt anyone around me is smart enough to use that breach. if we were to get new features on the other hand .... guess i'll stick to 4.3.3 i need my SB Settings

 

[mms13]

Don't do a restore when updating then...

For as long as I can remember it has always forced a full restore every time I update...

Doesn't matter now that I'm on iOS5 but that's how it has always been for me.

29 minute download for me at 4 Mb/s.

All updates are welcome here. iOS, MacOS. How can someone be against them. You can do other things while they are downloading, either on your Mac or off your Mac.
