Apple Releases iOS 8.1.2 With Fix for Disappearing Ringtone Issue

[yg17]

People still pay for ringtones?

 

[John.B]

iOS 8.1.2, carrying a build number of 12B440, was not seeded to developers before being released to the public.

What could go wrong?

Ringtones all messed up!
Now only play backwards!

Vark Dader now says: Apple is EviL.
Funny, as I always thought that he said "Luke, I am your father!".

Yoda laughs in the background......

yay updates

If you're updating through iTunes, you get the full OS download, every time. Updating on an iPad mini, it's under 20MB.

I won't be near a computer for another 8 hours. Might as well just wait, there's nothing worth updating for right now anyway.

I purchased a ringtone for the first time ever a couple weeks ago .. it never downloaded, this now explains why..

I submitted ticket to Apple to get my money back (never heard anything from them - haven't checked my account to see if they restored the funds)

But, installed the update; went to restore-tones and my missing ringtone is now on my phone

Don't take this the wrong way, but don't believe everything you read.

You can't put something on the internet if it isn't true...

Lol, 1.2 GB required...

Its inconceivable that Apple is still selling 16GB iPads and iPhones, given the sizes of updates.

 

[teslo]

I found it amusing. Why are you being so snappy?!


You must hate me now

are people who scoff at knock knock jokes being curmudgeons? or maybe - just maybe - do the jokes just fall utterly flat, assuming you've actually got a sense of humor that digs a little deeper than memes and Facebook/tumblr posts?

 

[Traverse]

Bug fixes and "minor update" does not compute with iOS 8...

How about a major update that fixes most of the issues, please.

See, I'm hesitant with that in Apple's current state. Slow and steady updates to address problems without introducing new ones.

You can't characterize all humor like that. It varies with the individual. I didn't find it HAHAHA funny, but I found it amusing to read and I'm not even on Facebook

Updating iPhone 6

It's alive!

 

[sputnikv]

who purchases ringtones?

 

[sflomenb]

Does it fix the iCloud Tabs bug?

 

[dannyyankou]

23MB for me

That's the size of the update. It only shows you how much space is required if you don't have enough space. Likely not 23MB.

Those are updates through iTunes. Most people update OTA which are smaller, delta updates.

 

[doelcm82]

Nice. Will download in a few

... days.

I'm not experiencing the missing ringtone bug (I just use the default ringtones), or any other problems this is likely to fix. So I'm not in any hurry.

 

[Ferc Kast]

And, it doesn't give me back the ring tone I lost on my iPhone 5s before switching carriers and getting a iPhone 6. /sigh

 

[tech2014]

Can someone tell me if you update through itunes it downloads the whole os but updating ota is fast. So whats the difference and which is better?

You keep using that word...

Yeah, right! I have a 64gb 5s and I'm running out of space. I'm getting the 128gb 6s when it comes out for sure.

iOS 8 and its many buggy iterations since was enough to drive me back to Android (which has gotten a lot better since I was last there).

OSX 10.10 may drive me back to Linux or even (gasp) Windows

I remember when Apple had much better software quality control. Truly sad.

 

[KentuckyHouse]

Damn, they just can't get iOS 8 right at all. Just imagine next year (software year) when iOS 9 comes out.

So now we're griping because they're trying to fix things?

 

[timborama]

I guess dropped ringtone more important than dropped wifi!?!

 

[Bahroo]

Damn, they just can't get iOS 8 right at all. Just imagine next year (software year) when iOS 9 comes out.

Seems more right and more stable and less buggy then its competitor right now (Lollipop)

Lollipop is completly bug ridden right now

 

[DualShock]

Anyone know if this fixes the double / echo e-mail notification sound?
