When you setup 2 factor auth you have options to setup the IOS device directly and a mobile number. I did both just in case I forgot to change it when my phone gets replaced. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Got into a bit of a weird hang because I have 2 step authentication. It was trying to send a code to my phone but it never came so I skipped the step and then manually signed it after the initial setup and everything is GTG. What do you mean phone and txt? Roger. I'll go back in and look for that in settings. Appreciate it. |

This is taking a lot longer than I expected. It stopped giving me a countdown timer, and now just says, "Preparing Update...".
It's been an hour now...

Time Lapse and 3 or 10 second delay on the camera now. Interdasting... Selfies oughta get a make-over on that one alone.
Tips app is so far useless. No new real info. Health? No thanks. I'm not putting anything like that on an app that reports back to Apple. Call it paranoia... Newsstand. Passbook. Podcasts... Again, useless for my purposes. |

iPhone 5 updated fine. Used an iTunes update -vs OTA.
iPad3 had problems with OTA, so I tried an iTunes update. Bricked. Had to do a DFU install on the iPad and all is well in the iOS world now. |

(I don't like it much either). We have enjoyed killing any iOS 8 device that is talking to our Exchange box...I sent 3 emails to the company on iOS 8 until we have tested it. I already have a couple people saying "they did not get the email" Read receipt checks are a bitch
Nice to be the IT NAZI (oh I mean King) . To be fair we should have iOS 8 approved next week...I just don't trust updated iOS talking to our Exchange box right away.

I really liked Google contacts except for the fact that I had to setup a sync between it and my address book since google didn't have a stand alone app. Plus, the "groups" you created on google won't show up on iOS. That's why I switched to iCloud contacts so I can have groups sync perfectly across devices. It's a bit of a pain since I use google for email and calender and IOS/OSX for reminders, notes, contacts, etc. But given the fact that I use strictly Apple devices with google services I knew there would be some things that didn't work perfectly together. Plus I had that google is trying so hard to push everything to their Google +. |
