No noticeable changes

Can I get it in white?

Now they need to update appletv to make netflix play better.

Improved Home Sharing. Browse, play, and sync from your iTunes libraries with Home Sharing on any iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 4.3.

It's too bad they didn't add the bold part. Maybe next time. Even if you have to plug in I think Apple should at least let us sync using any computer with home sharing enabled.

Strangely small update size.

New scroll bars


Is this a sign of iOS 4.3 GM today?! Pleeeaaase!!!

 

[ECUpirate44]

Wake me up when 4.3 is jailbroken.

 

[ten-oak-druid]

Did they fix the icon?

 

[Twizz91]

[Saberon]

iTunes options menu looks much more like OSX now

 

[sniffies]

New scroll bars

[Saberon]

Should be coloured blue but I had iTunes "in the background" when i took SS

Jeebus, if they could crank out iOS updates at the rate they force me update iTunes we'd be on iOS 8,000 or something.

Somebody has to say it, so here we go. Safari is faster. Now we can stay with the topic

Homesharing is huge. Man, Im surprised this isn't being talked about more. Being able to watch/listen to anything on itunes running on your computer is finally available? This is a feature that should have existed long ago.

No more need for Streamtome and AirVideo while at home. How will this work anyway? Is it in the iPod app? It must be.

 

[Stuipdboy1000]

Oh my. It runs a lot quicker now.

 

[childs12111]

Can anyone get Homesharing to work?

I have iOS 4.3 and iTunes 10.2, but have no idea where or how to get the homesharing working between my laptop and iphone. I have it turned on in iTunes, has anyone found out how to get it to work?

 

[Saberon]

I'm almost certain you will need the final build of iOS 4.3 to get that, or else it would have probably been discovered quickly in Beta 3

I'm assuming that'll be a beta of iOS 4.3? You won't be able to get it working until the GM build is released.

 

[thankins]

They brought some color back to the preferences - YEA!

 

[0racle]

I sort of expected Xcode 4 to be released with the announcement of iOS 4.3 as well.

 

[JPark]

Awesome! Can't wait to try it out. Oh wait, 4.3 isn't out yet. Um...I guess I'll have to wait after all.

I'm new to the Developer program, how can you tell if it's GM on the developer page?

 

[karsten]

you mean Lion/iOS scrollbars?
