I just snapped a pic to test this and I had no problems. I took a pic and then hit the preview from the camera app and it loaded right up.

it seems to do it a lot to me ... it sometimes takes a while and puts me back to the lock screen :mad:
 
Ok, when I restored from an iCloud backup after installing beta 3 on Monday, my email accounts and everything else was there just fine. Last night, the phone managed to delete all four of my email accounts. Anyone know what might have caused this?

EDIT: I think it has something to do with iCloud. Last night, my phone tried to do an iCloud backup, but since my beta 2 backup used up 3.5 of the 5GB, it couldn't do the new backup until I deleted the old one (there's something about this in the release notes). I deleted my iCloud backup, and that seems to have logged me out of iCloud completely and also wiped my mail accounts, calendar, and notes from my phone.

Have they added an option for a Calendar event look ahead in the Notifications Center?

Or does it still only show events that are upcoming in the next 24H?

Yes. You have an option of selecting how many items to show on notifications so if this is more then the next 24h it will go into the next day and so on.
 
Problem?!?

So I downloaded iTunes 10.5 and also have ios 5.0 on my iphone however I saw that apple announced 5.3 beta for iphone. How do I upgrade my phone to the latest beta!

problem i havent seemed to find anyone else having

i was with a developer, but they let me go, so now i had to pay this site i think imod or something 7 dollars to reactivate my udid or something like that so i could continue using the betas, since i couldnt go back, well i installed beta 3 every thing was the same as before, but if i have my wifi on my phone continues to freeze if i open anything i loose all service and everything shuts down until i stop doing everything and wait, problem fixed if i turn wifi off, BUT when i put my phone on charge at night, when i wake up my phone is on a black screen with a frozen swirly thing that little white round thing that spins. any ideas am i the only one, and yes i have restored and restored and restored and reset and everything.
