I'm getting a new Phone friday as well. My GF will be taking this one. She smashed her 4S lol and has been living with an oldish blackberry.

I never get why guys always hand down their old phone to the GF and buy themselves the new one. Why not give the GF the new one and you keep the old one? ;)
 
ok thanks...

You can if you have previous ios on your HD, which i do... I downloaded 6.1.3 this afternoon before Apple pushed out ios7..... Just in case i wanna revert.

It doesn't matter if you have the .ipsw file. You can only restore to firmware that Apple is currently signing. In a few hours, a few days max, Apple will stop signing iOS 6 and you won't be able to install it, even if you have the .ipsw file.
 
iTunes 11.1 update showed up in my Software Update, but I can't connect to any of Apples websites, and I'm getting iPhone software update server could not be contacted...and network connection refused when I try to get into the iTunes store.

Anyone know how to fix this?
 
you clearly don't go around more of the forums, cause there are quite a few folks, especially on the non Apple lover sites, that are full of the same opinion.

Not so sure you pay too much attention around here or you would know my feelings and wouldn't need me to /s everything.

Sorry--my sarcasm detector didn't go off. These days, when one story gets thousands of responses, it's no easy task to track each poster's individual opinions/tendency toward sarcasm.
 
general poll.....

Has anyone had any issues updating OTA? I read an article that said the software may become corrupted or other problems could crop up in the software if you update OTA? Is this valid or just someone being paranoid?
 
Was downloading on phone for 30 minutes, about halfway done, when it crapped out with an error. Started it up again and download started from beginning. :mad: Guess I'll find something else to do while you all fight for the bandwidths. :rolleyes:
 
Still impresses me that on launch day so many people are trying to grab it the second it arrives. Personally planning to leave it till tonight when it is quieter.

Not impressed once again Apple is having problems. I appreciate the load issues but in the age of Elastic computing you think by iOS7 this would be smoother.

You think it'll be quieter tonight?!
 
OK EVERYONE! GET READY! HERE COMES THE COMMENT OF THE YEAR!

I'm downloading now! (try to keep your head from exploding!)
 
Not sure what I think of the bigger Apple when I boot my iPad....kinda liked the understated elegance of the smaller one. Is it bigger on the phone too? My phone update started at minutes but has now been bouncing up and down an hour at a time....currently says 2 hours. Using work wi-fi....not at a company where I would have assumed there'd be lots of immediate adopters.
 
Trying out iTunes Radio now for the first time. Just clicked on Beatles Radio station. I'm already an Rdio and Pandora subscriber, and use them on iOS and Android. Not sure if I'll use it iTunes Radio, but neat it comes with it now.
