Ask your stupid iOS 7 question here!

Am I doing something wrong that my Yahoo mail doesn't always immediately push? Sometimes after the phone has been sitting for 30 minutes or so, I'll open the mail app and emails will come flowing in - showing that they were sent 20 minutes ago.
 
Does the motion background work better on iPhone 5s than a 5? I am not seeing much of a effect here on my iPhone 5. My only guess as why this could be happening is because I use a moshi anti glare screen protector which may be killing the effect any thoughts!.
 
eBay on Safari is acting funny. It won't let me use any pull down windows, nothing happens when you click on one. In iOS 6 this was not an issue. Anyone know why?
 
When downloading tv shows, how do I get the SD version not the HD one. On iOS 6 I downloaded one episode from the iTunes Store and then in the video app you could flick to SD to download all in SD but that option has disappeared. I just want to be able to store more quantity on here.
 
I'm having an extreme problem updating my Iphone to IOS7. So far everytime I need to update an IOS, it usually crashes on my comp and this time it wasn't any different. The only difference is that I have tried to system restore my IPhone 4S with the new IOS 7.0 and so far, it's stuck in a endless loop of "Preparing Phone for system restore" I left it on for 4-5 hours thinking the IOS was a big file and so far, its stuck uploading. I'm ready to return my 4S to Apple, as I'm getting fed up trying to system restore my phone for the 5th time now. I'm getting frustrated and hope somebody can provide some solutions.

iOS 7 Safari - Opening new blank tabs

So the previous Safari had a small tab with a 'plus' sign on it to open a new blank tab. How to do that now? Anybody? Thx in advance...

Same way, open the tab browser (button right corner of the bottom browser bar), then hit the plus sign in the middle.
 
iOS 7 in endless reboot after install

I just upgraded my iPhone 4 to iOS 7 and everything went well until it tried to boot for the first time. It briefly shows the "Update Complete" page with the "slide to configure" at the bottom then immediately restarts and goes back to the Apple screen, vibrates, then eventually shows the "Update Complete" again, then restarts...
I've tried turning the phone off and it allowed that once but then it immediately and automatically comes back on; starting the same loop again.
I'd be content to restore iOS 6... but can't get out of this loop.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
How do I download SD video directly from the iTunes Store? On iOS 6 I could choose SD in the video app to get SD versions of TV shows, but that option seems to have disappeared.

Thanks in advance, any help is much appreciated.

If I set up an iPhone 5S with fingerprint unlock, can my wife still pick up the phone and use it with pin code unlock? I want her to be able to!)

EDIT...or can you have more than one persons fingerprints recognised?

What is the new wallpaper size to account for parallax?

Isn't the size trivial? I'm using a picture I took as my wallpaper. It is probably a few megs. Why would have to be larger to account for parallax as I see that as programming feat but nothing to do with the static picture underneath the "moving" tiles.

Just found this in the blurb:

"And because Touch ID lets you enroll multiple fingerprints, it knows the people you trust, too."
 
Oh man, since installing iOS 7 on my iPad, I know for a fact I have brought up that bottom control center thing a million times while just scrolling in general on pages and FB and such. I just swipe a little too low I guess. Is anyone else doing this CONSTANTLY? I gotta get used to it more I suppose. :-/
 
Here's my stupid question: updated my 4S and iPad 3. The 4S deletes selected multiple emails as always when using the Edit function. My iPad will not allow me to edit/select/delete emails, multiple selections or even a single selection. I depress edit and the check mark by the email(s) selected will not stay on and just disappears leaving the email. I can delete manually while reading each email. Like I said the 4S works fine. Is there a setting I am missing on the iPad?

It's actually the wallpaper that moves, not the tiles. I'm not sure of the exact dimensions but I found that changing the canvas size to 125% in photoshop fits pretty perfectly on my 4s.

I have one "shelf" style wallpaper that I love, so modifying it to fit ios 7 was a priority for me.



ETA: Upon closer inspection, it looks like both the wallpaper and the tiles move to create the parallax effect.

121% to be exact. You can measure this in photoshop by setting a screenshot of your homescreen as your background, and then measure the scaling needed to match the icons.
