I've been using the Beta on my iPad (3rd Gen) since it was released, but just recently installed it on my AT&T iPhone 4. I tried to install an app today, only to get a message saying "Unable to purchase XXX, the requested item could not be purchased at this time." Then the iPhone wouldn't give me any app updates, even though I knew I had some available.
I've tried doing hard resets and thought perhaps signing out and in might help, but after signing out, I can no longer sign in using my Apple ID. It just refuses to accept it.
I don't have access to the developer forums, as I'm using the beta to test a friend's app. Has anyone else run across this problem? My iPad is still working perfectly fine.

If its a beta app i dont know but maybe your friend have to add your udid to the list, the problem with the appstore i cant comment because havent encounter any problems like that; have you try making a new account or loggin with a friends account to see ? Try login over settings----appstore.
I had the updates issue and the error. Just had to leave it a few days, sorted itself out.
Nice! Did not expect this at all. We can at least hope for a Norwegian Siri down the line
Wait, Norway doesn't have Siri despite it being developed by a Norwegian and named after a Norwegian weather presenter? Helvete...
Can anyone from Australia with the beta confirm that we will not have turn by turn? as its not listed on http://www.apple.com/au/ios/ios6/

Yup. No turn by turn as of yet. It does however automatically update your instructions as you drive if you route, hit start then hit the locate button. It does not automatically update your route if you miss a turn however :/
Are the x's in notification center to dismiss a notification and in the search bar in the app store the same size in ios6? They are frustratingly small for my big fingers.
So very likely iOS 6 will be released for the public with the announcement on the 12th right? I remember it being like that the previous years or am I tripping?
No, it'll be golden master on 12th, official release will be couple days before the new phone comes out.
Don't know if this has already been posted.. but..

So is iOS 6 going to be released today with the new iPhone 5 or the "available in autumn" ad is right and we have to wait some more ?
No, the GM will be released to Developers. The final release will be released to the public a few days before the iPhone 5 is released or the day it's released.
was really hoping iOS6 would bring streaming to iTunes Match on the iPhone instead of downloading the songs.
Saw some rumors with an older beta that this would be happening, but nothing confirmed in the announcement today. Also had someone check with the GM that went out today and they said it was still downloading the songs.

Still not a fan of the new search. Could take ages to swipe thru things! Also look at the glitch. Item is -12 lomDon't have ios 6 yet but is it still impossible to swipe and delete individual entries in the safari history? Seems like a simple enough feature I'd wish they'd add for when I miss-spell websites and am left with the wrong one in my history. Also I think history would be a nice thing to add to iCloud for those that don't bookmark a lot and would like to find a site via the history
Aww I just noticed the white keypad on the phone app. Not a fan. So Android looking. And overall really not digging all the blue across the entire UI. Really don't understand the shift from the elegant grays.
And on a side note, I can't believe the iPhone still hasn't gotten a brightness slider in the dock a la iPad.

I agree. I'm not a fan of the new UI for music either. I'm not going to skip iOS6 because of visual disappointment, though. Overall it has a lot going for it. Feels snappier. I guess the changes are just something we'll get used to over time. Odds are if it had been this way all along and they changed it to what it used to look like, we'd be WTFing the other direction.
A sidenote....I can't tell if battery life is worse on iOS6 or if I am just using it a whole lot more than I usually do since I don't usually mess with every single thing on the phone. Guess I'll have to wait for the newness to wear off because I make a battery life judgement call.
