So just to be clear on installing iOS 7 for a Mac, are these the right steps I should take:
1) Back up my current iPhone data (duh)
2) Install iTunes 11.1 beta
3) Install iOS 7 GM
?
OSXWindows?
and what if I don't have iTunes beta? I'm currently on iOS 7 beta, will I ever be able to update?
If you don't have the iTunes Beta you can still update, you simply can't sync your phone afterwards until iTunes 11.1 comes out presumably next week.
If you're on Mac OSX you can download the iTunes Beta here: http://atfdl.com/file/itunes-11-1-beta-2-mac/
I'm on Windows and managed to get it downloaded for iPad 4. How do I install this? Haven't done the early GM downloading since iOS 4 haha.
Yeah, after some research about what went wrong with my download, I believe iPhone5,1 is A1428.Before the copy.com link went down, the file in the folder marked "iPhone 5 GSM" was just called iPhone5,1_7.0_11A465_Restore.ipsw with no model number. Surely that means A1428, right?
Wut. I even have some iCloud keychain generated passwords. If they removed that, I'm FUCKED.iCloud keychain no longer shows up in my iCloud settings. hmm. wonder if they took that out. I liked it a lot in the beta

You can't sync to iTunes on GM?

What happens if someone that doesnt own the iphone first uses the fingerprint to link their dna to unlocking the iphone. Like someone from the store or buying the iPhone 5s used?
And what happened with Mavericks release date?
only on 11.1 beta i think

So ... Missed the conf. No iMac refresh ?
It has changed to "Coming Soon" on the iOS 7 page:
http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/
Confirmed ? Or that's still what we think will happen ?Comes out in October
ok can we get any official confirmation on what version of itunes you need to do this GM?
what beta you need, dont need, windows, mac?
im installing it now on whatever the latest version is for us normal folks. But to actually sync once you have installed 7, you need the newest BETA
Confirmed ? Or that's still what we think will happen ?
so my question to everyone is. once you restore it on the latest non beta itunes, Then it refreshes and all of a sudden it wont recolonize your phone anymore?
Unless you are on OSX there is nothing you can do besides wait. You can only sync ios 7 devices with the itunes beta. If you are osx you can just download it.no No NO NO I don't like the new charging or locking sounds no no how do I change them back fffuuccckkk 6 years of training erased!!
Edit: I am getting the iTunes error that 11.1 is needed. I'm on 11.0.5 btw.
Where does this leave iPhone 5 owners?
Does the GM get pushed through OTA updates if you're already on the beta?
