ahhh, sorry, dude. I'm having a similar convo in a different thread and just assumed everyone knew what I was talking about.
But yeah. With iTunes Match activated you can't delete songs/albums anymore and send them back to the cloud. You have to either disable iTunes Match or go to usage and delete everything you have downloaded.
Crazy!
It still stores music. I wiped all the music off. played a couple of songs and the checked usage and 12.6mb was stored.
Bugs with the GM release. Brightness sensor is going nuts. Maps can't get my current location even in the neighbourhood of 'close'.
I had to reboot the app. Now works. I thing I liked Googles info better. But the maps is quick!
Ohh, it's you.
Either way, deleting music in the app it's self works. Worked in iOS5 and now in iOS6. Maybe you are swiping wrong?
No iTunes Match here.
There are torrents available. The question is whether you wait for the official release, there have been odd occasions where the GM has changed before being pushed to end users in the past after flaws were discovered in its final weeks of testing.
Also the current GM doesn't require you to have your devices UID registered meaning anyone can install it, but again there is that slight risk of bricking your device
In the next few days I suspect more and more torrents claiming to be the GM will surface and a lot of them won't be what they say they are. Unless you know what your getting, are prepared to accept the worse consequences if it goes wrong without bitching about it afterwards, then I'd recommended developing patience and waiting a week.
But many won't, and many will come back here bitching something went wrong
Hehe..thanks for the overview..=D
And yea..I've always waited for these to come out officially by Apple, cause I'm afraid to get my phone bricked. But this time around..my current iPhone is really dead anyway..so it won't matter if it messes up..xD
My brightness did something weird to. All of a sudden it faded to low after i closed the app I was using it went back to normal
Does anyone know if the new iTunes feature "Up Next" has been added to iOS6? It would be fantastic to be able to queue music without a playlist.

No, it doesn't. The Music app is missing some features I'd love them to implement - Crossfading, Swipe to change track etc. This is why I use the Spotify app. I do like the new UI though.
see my post above. Its a Match issue
Ahhh, no worries. I've never used Match but, I did look into last night after installing iOS6.
Good luck and sorry for the confusion.
Once you do a full clean restore and you have IOS 6 , will syncing your iPhone get all your stuff back? Or are you screwed ? Contacts, photos, texts, etc.
I did do a back up and all , once my phone is done booting do I sync it to get all of my stuff back?
When it first connects to iTunes, it'll ask if you want to restore it from backup.
If it doesn't, and you're using it "as new", you can right click it on the list on the left in iTunes, then "restore backup" (or something like that) then you can pick your latest backup.
You need to restore from a back-up. If you have iCloud set-up your contacts should be available in your Contacts app (presuming you have a recent back up).
The only thing it will not transfer back over is your Music.
I didn't see any geofencing options but advanced scheduling for DND mode is located in Notifications just under the DND on/off switch.Still missing a separate language setting for Turn by Turn Navigation and advanced scheduling/geofencing options for Do Not Disturb mode.
