Working just fine here for the most part, but noticed that data usage increased significantly. It turned out that the new backup and document file sharing features were sending data up to iCloud. Turning off iCloud cellular access cut that down.

Upgraded my 4S.
Enjoy the new features, but it really is too much for the old phone, it's noticeably slower. Not too worried tho, the 6 will be here soon

I updated my ipad and my iphone 5 last night.
Can't say I see too much of a difference as usual. The revamped Safari will take some getting used to (mostly the change in location and function of the bookmarks button)... I might just download chome and try that for a change. |

Trying to update my 4.
Ok, update iTunes first. Great. Now gotta wait for windows to re-install drivers for the phone, typical but whatever. Get into the backup area (because I'm not stupid) and it wants me to re-authorize? WTF, I use only one install of iTunes and this is it. Threatens to delete 18 apps off my phone if I don't. Ok, whatever, enter password to authorize. iTunes store is apparently kicking me out, or it's just outright down. It doesn't look like it's going to offer 8 for my phone either. Don't know yet, because I can't do anything until they fix their shit. Hey Apple, I hear amazon.com has some great cloud server service that you could use to you know, fix your shit.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I haven't seen any good meltdown posts yet. Couldn't this update have changed the shape of the icons or some other highly visible, but inconsequential thing? Kinda disappointed.  Downloaded IOS8 a couple days ago on my iPad and iPhone.. About a third of the home screen icons on the iPad look like TV test patterns.. I've rebooted several times, but they're still there. It is also clear that my iPad is running much more slowly and with minor glitches I've not seen before. I'm not tech savvy, so I'll take it to the Apple Store here in Dismal Seepage.

If you have a wifi-only ipad and an iphone (like me), this update is big.
Now with your wifi-only ipad, you can txt anyone (not just imessage people), do facetime and answer calls. It links up with your iphone and your iphone acts as a "modem" of sorts for your ipad. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: This update cannot be installed because it requires at least 4.6 GB of storage. Pretty much to big for a 16 gig phone, because I don't have much stuff on mine. That's because you're updating OTA on the phone. Use iTunes and you don't need all that room. If you update via the phone, it has to download the image (close to 2G) and then unpack it for the install (usually double). iTunes will do that on your PC and just jam the iOS8 image down the wire. |
