This is just in. iOS 7.1 beta 1 download links have just gone live for iPhone 5, 5s, 5c, 4s, 4, iPod touch 5, and iPad 2 and up on the iOS Dev Center. A new beta for Apple TV 2nd and 3rd gen has also been released.
Apple has just made available iOS 7.0.4 download links for compatible iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. Apple's new iOS 7 mobile operating system seems to have gone down well so far with users, and after a couple of minor updates amending a couple of early teething issues and security holes, the Cupertino has today delivered yet another update. You can catch the full change log, as well as the download details, right after the break.
iOS 7.0.2 download links have just gone live for iPhone 5s, 5c, 5, 4s, 4, iPad and iPod touches. As with any new release of iOS, the latest and greatest has had its fair share of teething issues, and while we've not quite seen a repeat of last year's iOS 6 Maps shit-storm, the security lapses that have manifested through the new-look lock screen have not made for particularly pleasant reading.
It’s official now, iOS 7 GM download links will go live today on the Dev Center, as confirmed by Apple at their media event. First announced back at this year's WWDC in June, iOS 7 is now ready for public consumption having reached GM stage, and will publicly become available to compatible iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices from September 18th.
Apple TV may not be the all-singing assault on the television market as envisioned by the late Steve Jobs, but far from treating it like the "hobby" as once described by CEO Tim Cook, the Cupertino company is pressing ahead with updates. Today, Apple TV software 5.3 has been released for the second and third generation iterations of the little black set-top box, and now, users will be able to catch content from HBO and ESPN right from the Apple TV, negating the need for any kind of direct cable subscription. Details after the break!
Apple has just released iOS 6.1.4 (build 10B329) for the iPhone 5, and it is now available to download. More details and the download links can be found right after the jump.
For the last few months, Apple has been intensively testing iOS 6.1, the next minor update for iOS 6. Up until now, only developers willing to spend $99 per year on an Apple developer subscription had access to beta copies of this release, but now that the final version is upon us, everyone can take advantage of it. Here is how to download it right now.
Before a new version of iOS is released by Apple to the public, it goes through several betas, in which developers get the chance to download, assess, and note of any significant bugs or issues. This system attempts to ensure the end-user release is as smooth as possible, and while many of you will have been using iOS 6.x, work has been going on behind the scenes to prepare iOS 6.1. Today, a new Beta 5 build is now ready for download for developers only.
Apple's iOS 6 may have been adopted in record numbers initially, but the release of the latest and greatest mobile software has been far from a smooth ride. Maps, which was meant to replace Google Maps at stock level, turned out to be as much use as a chocolate fire shield for many, and after a fair amount of controversy including a complaint from Australian Police suggesting its frailties potentially endanger lives, Maps has somewhat re-replaced Apple Maps following its App Store release last week. Meanwhile, iOS SVP Scott Forstall has gone the way of MobileMe, and with Apple is looking to turn a corner with its iOS software by bringing the updates at frequent intervals, iOS 6.1 Beta 4 is now available to developers.
Individuals who classify themselves as registered developers on the iOS development program will already be well aware that the second beta of iOS 6.1 has been available for past two weeks, but as always, the Apple engineers responsible for the development of iOS have been working hard behind the scenes making changes and improvements to the mobile operating system. The work put in over the last fortnight and the changes and improvements made have now manifested themselves in the form of an iOS 6.1 beta 3 seed to registered developers, available to download from the developers portal.
