Continua la messa a punto da parte degli ingegneri di Apple del nuovo sistema operativo iOS 5, che probabilmente vedrà la luce in forma definitiva al momento della presentazione della prossima versione dell' iPhone. Apple ha rilasciato oggi pomeriggio il nuovo
iOS 5 beta 6, con un elenco quasi chilometrico di novità e di ottimizzazioni. Anche in questo caso vi proponiamo il change log ufficiale in inglese, con tutte le novità introdotte da Apple su iOS 5 beta 6.
Notes and Known Issues
The following issues relate to using the 5.0 SDK to develop code.
Accounts
- When creating an iCloud account, you can use any Apple ID as long as it is a full email address and not a MobileMe account. If you have a MobileMe account, you can move that account to iCloud. You can find more information on iCloud at: http://developer.apple.com/icloud
- FIXED: When setting up an iCloud or MobileMe account using the setup assistant and leaving Find My iPhone on, it might actually turn Find my iPhone off after the setup. Please verify in Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendar/YourAccount that Find my iPhone is toggled On after leaving the setup assistant.
- FIXED: Enabling iCloud services in Setup Assistant may not always be saved correctly. After completing Setup Assistant you should visit Settings > iCloud to verify the state of the iCloud account. If you have multiple iCloud or MobileMe accounts configured on the device you should also visit each of those accounts in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar to verify each account.
- FIXED: It is recommended that you disable Bookmarks on multiple accounts. If they are enabled, the results might be undefined.
AirPlay
- Starting in iOS 5, video content in applications and websites are AirPlay-enabled by default.
- iOS 5 supports AirPlay of video via AV Foundation.
Apple TV
- Apple TV Software beta enables users to mirror the contents of an iPad 2 to an Apple TV (2nd generation) using AirPlay. This beta software also enables Photo Stream on Apple TV so users can access photos stored in iCloud. Apple TV Software beta is being provided to test the latest AirPlay functionality with your iOS 5 apps and web sites. If you wish to install Apple TV Software beta on your device, you must first register your device UDID in the iOS Developer Program Portal.
- Apple TV may return to the main menu when exiting a TV show played via Home Sharing.
- Music playlists are inaccessible via Home Sharing.
Binary Compatibility
- On applications linked against the iOS 5.0 SDK, scroll view content offsets will no longer be rounded to integral pixels during a pinch gesture.
