oop, sorry. i tried! must have been a coincidence.

are you having this problem over 3G or wifi or both?

Thanks for the suggestion.

Have tried over Wifi & 3G. Interestingly , now when trying over 3G it gives a slightly different message " The iTunes Store Is Temporarily Unavailable. Please Try Again Later "

Just on another subject. I noticed in the change log for 2.2 , that the homepage button is slightly different. Something about when in a menu if you press the Home button it takes you back to the 1st page & not home screen. Now I don't know if I'm misreading this , however whenever I press the home button , it always takes me back to the home screen. What am I doing wrong :confused:

Regards James
 
I read on Apple's site that a part of the 2.2 update was not letting any number dial through when in the 'Emergency Calls' screen.

"This update addresses the issue by restricting emergency calls to a limited set of phone numbers."

Mine still dials anything I like. Is it just mine??

Mine is now fixed. No more 'call anyone you want' in emergency call! YES!

could it be something with your preferences/settings?

James, the single click of the home button on additional home screens will take you back to your main home screen. Hope that's clear for you.

On another note, I believe there is a slight bug in the iPod software; when in coverflow mode and the track changes, the album art disappears and doesn't reload for ~10 seconds. I didn't notice this pre 2.2.
 
a couple posts up, I noted that I power cycled my iphone (turned it off for about 5minutes and then back on) and afterwards, I did not get any more AppStore "Cannot connect" update errors. It may have been a coincidence, but give it a try!

I had the same issue with the Apps store unable to connect after I updated the software today to 2.2. I tried the power recycle but no use. Attaching a screen shot. Anybody else facing the same problem after update?

That has always worked for me with no problems. Supposedly there is going to be an "Apply all updates" option too but I don't know yet because I didn't get any updates today.

It's back! It was here originally wasn't it? And then its gone. Thank goodness its back.

Thanks Eddy.

But didn't this do that in 2.1.

Before my update this morning , wherever I was on the phone , a single click always took me back to the main home screen. 2 clicks took me to my favorites.

Yup that's the message I'm getting.

If you try over 3G & not WiFi , you'll get a different message.

Acceptable emergency number list?

Is there any way to specify which numbers can be called in the Emergency Call screen? I mean, the obvious one should work (911/112/999/etc), but what about, say, my parents? Or Poison Control? Or the Highway Patrol?
 
I heard that the "Update All" button has been added back into the App Store Updates section. Is this true? Can anyone confirm?

True. What is new in 2.2 is that if you are on page 4 of your apps and you want to get to page one, just hit the home button and itll take you right to page 1 without any scrolling acrtoss.

I'm not sure how it works on the iPhone, I was cheap and could only afford a touch.

It must be the hour , could you run me through a scenario as to how this would work.

There's nothing wrong with cheap.

I almost cried as I handed over my £400 !!

Update Replacement

When you update an App instead of taking up a space, downloading, then replacing the app. it immediately replaces the app while downloading.

yep, however, it works now; try again :)
 
It's still CRIPPLED BY APPLE

I jailbroke and I'm never going back. Apple intentionally cripples the hell out of the iphone and that is pure BS. I encourage everyone to claim ownership of their phone and let it function at full capacity. Apple is turning into microsoft... fight back before it's too late.:mad:
 
James - Interestingly I am not getting the apps store connect error message anymore on both 3G and WiFi. I am assuming it is a minor glitch.

Indeed.

Have just tried again & went through 1st time , coming back with an update for Fovourites application.

Regards James
 
It's fast/instant/smooth
I love it.
Much more natural.

How about text privacy now?
What a jerk I am.
"it's nice, but..."
:cool:
That's always the case when you update to the latest firmware. Over the next several days, watch it getting sluggish again.

Thanks! It's actually a recent promotional for her current single.

Haven't you seen her lately? She looks great; and I don't mean by airbrushing.

Do u have the link to the image? She definitely looks much more mature but attractive. Gotta love photoshop! :D

You're absolutely correct here. This is new functionality and I love it! It doesn't take up extras spaces now to do updates! YES!

update all apps was removed for 2.1, I don't think it will be back sadly. Update has changed slightly though. With 2.1 when updating the app icon would appear in the first available slot then jump to it's correct place just before finishing. Now it goes straight to the right place. Trivial but a reassuringly detailed fix, I like that they fix seemingl

Edit: too slow and someone above beat me to it - didn't see update all tho :-( must be because it's late and ok tired

If you've jailbroken and are "never going back", then you must enjoy being jailbroken, no? If so, then what are so you mad about? Maybe because you can't update without losing your jailbroken status? How exactly is that functioning at "full capacity"?
