Apple Releases iOS 6.1.2 to Address Exchange Calendar Bug

[wxman2003]

Just updated. DL took a whole 3 minutes.

 

[applegigs]

any update that has the word 'battery' in the change log good to me!

I believe it has to do with Exchange running in the background causing poor battery life. But then again you never really know what they've tweaked

What ticks me off is that I am the only one having this problem. I tried three more times AND WHY DO I HAVE TO KEEP AGREEING TO THE TERMS. I AGREE INSTALL IT.

Software update failed. Tried it four times on my 5th gen iPod touch.

Same here - did you jailbreak it? It updated just fine on my 4S (without JB)..

Changed wifi networks still can't update. This is ticking me off.

What is your battery charge at?

Is evasi0n working? Thanks.

I had to accept a restore for my JB'n iPhone 4S 16GB. I'm restoring from a backup as I type. I'll let you know what happens to the Evasi0n.

As a side note, I've long experienced a large "Other" space of about 3.5 GB..when I restored, i did so as new...just to see...started as a new iPhone it has an "Other" space of about 0.5 GB. Now, I'm restoring to from backup...like I said. Naturally all my Other space should be back, but we'll see about evasion.

989.5MB to update through iTunes on an iPhone 5. Really? Lol.

Plugged into a power supply? My iPad wouldn't do the 6.1 update without being plugged in.

Hopefully this finally solves the Exchange issues. It's a bit annoying that AT&T continues to block OTA updates. This was all of 12.8MB. Fortunately I have a Sprint Mi-Fi.

Plugged in. Going to try through iTunes.

Updating an iPad (3) via iTunes on an iMac. Download to take 16 minutes?! It is on a good broadband network. Must be all you peeps slamming the Apple servers.

Updating via iTunes downloads the whole OS, so you're downloading a 1 gb file!

Thanks - you're right. Seems it was 1.11 GB.

Is there any benefit to setting up a Gmail account through Exchange instead of using the Gmail option in System Preferences, or vice versa? Drawbacks of either?

 

[metsjetsfan]

Are there any other bug fixes?

Safari snappier?

With iTunes you are downloading the whole firmware (around 1GB).

The OTA update on device is around 15MB (for iPad).

Safari seems snappier.

- Not sure if its coincidence, but my iTunes -> Purchased -> Music appears almost instantly versus taking 1-3 minutes to display.

- Local weather appears faster to find my location.

- Safari definitely seems faster.

- Safari pops up an icon on the top asking me to download Google Search. Never did this before.

Those are the only things I've noticed so far with my iPhone 5

Yes, it will allow you to use push e-mail for GMail.

Any word on if it still works with the evasi0n jailbreak?

What a life. Update comes out to fix real bugs, add features, plug security holes, and the jailbreak crowd has to sit back and wait to see if it breaks their hack. And if it does they are stuck in a time warp, their platform is arrested at the version the jailbreak works with, waiting for the hackers to fix their hack if it's even possible. Lather, rinse, repeat. How long did the iOS untethered jailbreak take to release? How many months after iOS 6 came out? What a life, just so you can beat your chest and tell everybody how YOU can do anything you want with your iDevice. Impressive.

Dumb question, you have enough space free to process the update?
