At times apps may download very slowly on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, despite having a good internet connection. In this piece, we'll discuss various reasons why your App Store downloads may not be performing the way you want them to and some troubleshooting steps to fix the potential problem.
Downloading and saving files or documents to a computer is something we don't think about. Click, click, done. It's saved on the hard drive and ready to be accessed when needed. On iOS, it can get a little more complicated than that.
How do I download a file to my iPhone? Where do I download it to? These are questions I've recently been asked, but also problems I have faced myself. In this article, I'll try to share different options for you to download files to iPhone or iPad.
I'm not sure if I accidentally initiated the download or if it happened automatically, but I have the latest iOS over-the-air update stored on my device. If the storage space used isn't anything to worry about, what bothers me the most is that my iPhone now prompts me every morning to install that update, something I don't want to do or be reminded of at this time.
Deleting an over-the-air update downloaded to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is an easy thing to do. If you want to regain a few MB of storage, or if, like me, you don't like to be asked to install that update every day, follow these simple directions.
As we reported earlier, Apple has added over a dozen new wallpapers to iOS 9. The iOS 9 beta 5 release brought several new wallpapers to the table, while omitting many of the staple wallpapers that we've been accustomed to over the years.
In this post, we provide you with a download link to many of the new wallpapers. If you want to have Apple's new wallpapers for iOS 9 on your device, but you aren't running the latest iOS 9 beta 5 release, then don't fret, you can download them here.
TaiG today launched an English version of its jailbreak tool and official website, making it easier for users to follow through the steps to download and use the utility to jailbreak their iOS devices running iOS 8 to iOS 8.1.1. In an effort to make communication with non-Chinese speakers better, the team has also launched a Twitter account, available in English as well.
The English version of the site can be found at TaiG.com/en. The download link, jailbreak tool UI, tutorial, and changelog pages have all been translated in English. Although the translation of the website and the jailbreak tool aren't perfect, this move will definitely make it less intimidating for users who haven't used TaiG yet to take the plunge.
After several months of beta testing, Apple has released iOS 8 to the public on September 17, 2014. This update, available over-the-air or via iTunes is a massive upgrade for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch users.
If you're looking to download a specific version of iOS 8, we've got you covered as we list all versions available for all devices below...
If you weren't able to watch the live stream of the event yesterday, Apple has made the whole video available for download from iTunes. Clocking at 2 hours and 3 minutes, the HD video goes over the announcement of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, Apple Pay, and Apple Watch.
Up until now, you were only able to stream the video of the event from Apple's website, which of course depends on an internet connection. Available as a standalone download, the video of the event is now available in the Podcasts section of iTunes. You can download it here.
iOS 7 makes it difficult to gauge where you are with App Store downloads. With very large downloads, it's a frustrating experience to watch the progress circle slowly inch around at a snail's pace.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could get a more informational view of your App Store download progress? What about bringing back the classing download status indicators? With AppETA, a new jailbreak tweak available on Cydia's BigBoss repo, you can do all of that and more.
Earlier today, Apple announced that this year's OS X update would be free for the first time ever to current Mac users. That's right, as long as you have a compatible Mac computer, you're eligible to get OS X Mavericks for free.
The update is a big one, bringing about several UI changes, new applications like Maps and iBooks, and a number of new features like Finder tabs and tags and quick reply for messages. And it's now available for download...
In addition to unveiling the new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c yesterday, Apple also seeded the Golden Master of iOS 7. It should be the final beta we see of the big software update, before it gets released to the public on September 18.
As we've already pointed out, iOS 7 GM doesn't include much in the way of changes. It does, however, feature several new wallpapers, which we went hands-on with yesterday. And since everyone seemed to like them so much, we thought we'd do something about it by posting all the new iOS 7 wallpapers for download...
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it’s finally here.
