my music app is a mess... at least with asian characters. when going into cover flow it's super laggy and crashes the app. was okay prior to b4 i believe but not fixed yet
I was able to fix mine by going into iTunes, unchecking the "sync music" box, doing a sync to delete all music off my phone, then rechecking the box and resyncing all my music back over.
One more beta is about all they have time for. They said Sept, so to keep that schedule, they will need to GM by mid-Sept to release it for general availability at the end of Sept. And keep in mind that Apple has no problem with releasing the OS before the new device. Usually, they would announce the new device and the OS availability date on the same day, with about 1 week notice on the OS, and 1 month notice on the device.
beta 6 changed the tweet ringtone. I liked the old tweet ringtone from betas 3-5. Anyone have that ringtone saved?
During the WDCc announcement they simply said 'Fall'.Krevnik said:it's not as bad as beta 5, but it's not ready for GM i feel. i see one more beta then GM, especially since iPhone 5 is out until early October, so we got a month and abit.

Fall in NA where Apple headquarters is located is Sept 23 - Dec 21.
September you pulled out of your ass.
I just did the OTA update (from beta 5 to beta 6) on my iPad 1, and all of my pictures are still there. There were only a few, since it's an iPad an all, but I was still surprised to see them after what I read in this thread.
For those of you who lost your pics and had to re-sync, what device were you using? I wonder if that bug is device-specific... I sure hope it's gone for GM at least.
Yep, that fixed it.
Took forever but it fixed it.
Lol... NOT ready for prime,

The only bug I have come across so far is that I cant upload files using the dropbox app. The upload window is just blank.
Anyone found a way around this or do we just need to wait for an IOS5 tested version of the Dropbox app?

There will no doubt be 1 more beta. That falls inline with an early September media event (they usually release GM shortly after the event), devs getting their apps ready, and leaves open the possibility to have a second GM if Apple see's necessary.
Don't know this for fact, just makes logical sense because if you're using beta 6, then you know it's still at least 1 more away from GM.
It seems everyone agrees on 1 more beta. I don't seem to be having any issues whatsoever (at least they don't bother me) with beta 6. I was thinking Apple could fix all these and then release the GM for testing and hope, unlike last time, that they won't need a second GM.
On a different note, I can only hope that it is early Sept even though, like someone else mentioned, Fall doesn't start officially till sept. 23. Has Apple ever released any prior product before Sept 23 that was dated as a Fall release?
Lastly, not sure if this has been stated or not but will iCloud be released the same date as iOS 5 or will be there be a lag period? I am in urgent need for the automatic document syncing within iWork apps on the Mac and iOS; hence, I'm becoming restless waiting for it![]()
I think this is the UI for downloading songs from iCloud:
ios 5 is butter smooth for me. It's great, opening full folders on a full springboard page is smooth, opening the multitasking switcher is smooth even with a full springboard of apps.
Question about the wifi itunes sync. It says automatically sync with itunes but how do I get it to automatically sync? because I have to press the sync now button. And if it did automatically sync then when does the phone decide when to do it?
Regarding backing up documents and data to icloud. If it backs up a gamesave then I delete that game. If I was to re install the game to my phone will icloud install the gamesave back on my phone to?

It's never worked for me. I always have to use the button on the bottom to send it to a background tab.Is anyone else's safari not opening pages in background? I've toggled the setting on and off it's just not working, don't think it has throughout the beta
