We’re off to a shaky start with iOS 4

22 Jun

iOS 4

We upgraded our iPhone 3GS’s to ver­sion 4 last night. Instal­la­tion was not seam­less. We got error mes­sages mul­ti­ple times, upload­ing from two dif­fer­ent Macs! Finally, after using the Restore option sev­eral times, the upgrade finally took.

I also upgraded an iPod Touch with the same install challenges.

Regard­less, the new soft­ware is worth the headaches. I’m dig­ging the new Fold­ers for orga­niz­ing like apps. The mul­ti­task­ing is cool too. Dou­ble tap the home key and you get a dock at the bot­tom of the screen. Slide your fin­ger across the dock to select from your run­ning apps. Also cool, if you are run­ning a song, you can access the con­trols for pause/play for­ward and back right there in the dock … Even with Pandora!

I’m sure I’ll have more obser­va­tions, but I’ll give the folks at Apple a thumbs up despite the clumsy installation!
