although saying that i cant get itunes beta to work, cant find the correct file (pc) to install

^ Considering you need a Mac for iOS development I don't think they bother releasing iTunes Windows betas

let's say this pre-release version has a virus...how many people now have that virus?
- I'm dloading right now btwdbloc
- iTunes still needs to authenticate it. it's legit. Only jailbroken phones can install modified files.ESKEMA
- oh has to be jailbroken?dbloc
- Not possible, otherwise Jailbreaking would be easy.animatedgif
- Yeah, Apple has this tendency to put viruses on their prereleases. It's like an extra bonus for developers.monospaced

How are people getting this? I never got an upgrade notice.
- ESKEMA0
^^ No..
Anyone can install this. Jailbroken or not, because it is a legit copy from Apple. The phone and iTunes authenticates the software.
Only jailbroken devices can install modified versions of iOS.
If there's a virus in it, Apple planted it. Or some new exploit no one has ever heard of..

Oh ok I thought this was a real beta release through apple. Im not downloading shit from a guy named adam on a site called lifehacker.

right so if you use a pc, not mac, this is pointless??
i cant update itunes to the beta so i'll have a phone from new but without the ability to put any music on it? other than the music bought on itunes, and ill have to add all contacts again...

the transitions are a little slow but overall its great. i thought the parallax thing would be more pronounced. love the pull up from the bottom, especially for brightening/darkening the screen. good for dark room meetings, sucked that it used to be buried in menus.
- slow because you're not on the new phone? makes sense...doesnotexist

Installed it. These icons are dreadful. The rest is ok. The tacky color scheme is just really hard to look at.

In fact, I think I might do this: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/…

So if all you cunts hate the look and functionality of iOS 7, why the fuck are you scrambling to install it before it's even released?
- I'm not.fadein11
- I really like it. What are you talking about. Functionality are great too. its a big WIN for me.benfal99
- I'M not saying it's bad, I am talking about others. I have almost no opinion whatsoever on how it looks actuallymonospaced
- mono-autism********
- I don't hate all of it. I'm pretty satisfied with it overall.jtb26

listening to Ives speak is more frustrating than iOS7, imo.
- He speaks even slower each event. In 5 years he will only get 5 words out.CygnusZero4

After 24 hours of testing my verdict of iOS7 is:
+1 for Apple.
I really like it. Much much better than the olds iOSs. Look and functionalities are greats. Just give it a couple of hours of testing. You cant use a "new" OS and like it in the first second of use when you were using something else for the last 5 years.
