Jon the Hat Posted 19 September 2013 Share Posted 19 September 2013 Looks quite swish. I like a new IOS - feels like a new phone! Changes are very incremental now, mostly they just get faster and better screens, little change in functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 19 September 2013 Share Posted 19 September 2013 Updated my iPad... Looks better imo. The only thing I don't get is why it's asking me, on certain artists, to download some of their other songs. Are they free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFox Posted 19 September 2013 Share Posted 19 September 2013 Looks a bit shitty I think, like something a kid would design. Get used to it by tonight tho probably and forget the old one even existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSpaM Posted 19 September 2013 Share Posted 19 September 2013 Not even joking, people with sleeping bags are waiting outside the shires already. Ridiculous, they could probably walk in there tomorow morning and get one no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samilktray Posted 19 September 2013 Share Posted 19 September 2013 Looks good, don't know how anyone could think otherwise. Original layout was so outdated at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tincy Posted 21 September 2013 Share Posted 21 September 2013 I've installed it twice now and nothing, what's going on?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magictv Posted 21 September 2013 Share Posted 21 September 2013 There's usually millions of people trying to download the new software just after the official release. Of course, it's bound to crash or work very slowly in the best case. I'd wait a few hours, then try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad the Fox Posted 22 September 2013 Share Posted 22 September 2013 I've updated my ipad but it won't load iTunes Store, iBooks store, or iTunes U catalogue. Has anyone else had this problem or got any ideas how to solve it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 22 September 2013 Share Posted 22 September 2013 I've updated my ipad but it won't load iTunes Store, iBooks store, or iTunes U catalogue. Has anyone else had this problem or got any ideas how to solve it? Works fine for me. Maybe you want to re-install the newest updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danno Posted 22 September 2013 Share Posted 22 September 2013 What do people think the price of getting an iphone battery replaced would be in a shop?? no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indierich06 Posted 23 September 2013 Share Posted 23 September 2013 After a bit of searching, I found this on the Apple site: http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_Kingdom&product=iphone Service arranged through Apple costs £ 55.00. A £ 7.44 shipping fee will be added if this service requires shipping. All fees are in British Pound Sterling and include VAT. Not too bad - I thought it'd be a lot more extortionate than that to be honest. But if you're willing to take a bit more of a risk, there are plenty of websites that I found on Google who claim they can do it for about £30. Personally, I'd go down the official Apple route - more cover if anything goes wrong. As an aside, I think this is possibly the worst thing about Apple devices and laptops - they make it extremely difficult for your average user to replace things like the battery or the screen, then they try and charge you an arm and a leg to do it for you.

Matt Posted 23 September 2013 Share Posted 23 September 2013 Waterproof iPhone Advert: Users fooled. A fake Apple advert claiming the new iOS 7 software makes iPhones and iPads waterproof has apparently fooled some users into destroying their devices. The "advert" circulating on social media sites claims that updating devices with the operating system installs a "smart switch" that cuts off the phone's power supply when water is detected. This, it claims, "prevents any damage to your iPhone's delicate circuitry". The advert looks remarkably similar to an authentic Apple advertisement, with the same plain white background and minimalist font and style. It seems some users have been fooled into dunking their expensive gadgets into water to test out the promised feature, only to render their devices useless. One user wrote on Twitter: "Whoever said iOS 7 was waterproof **** you." Another wrote: "OK whoever said iOS 7 is waterproof GO **** YOURSELF." The prank idea is believed to have originally started on the controversial forum 4Chan. The iOS 7 software was released last week, and is available as a free upgrade for newer models of the iPhone and iPad. It provides a series of new features including an overhaul of the interface. It was released at the same time as the new iPhone 5S and 5C models. The 5S features a fingerprint unlocking device for extra security. However, a group of German hackers have found a way to bypass the measure. The group, known as the Chaos Computer Club, say that a fingerprint of the phone user, photographed from a glass surface, is enough to create a fake latex finger that could unlock the phone. Apple has not yet commented. Seriously, are people that thick to think new software makes something waterproof?Interesting about the German hackers though.
