I hear that iOS 6 breaks a whole lot of code used by many apps.

Finally got my refund from PayPal for a site that billed my account twice when I was buying a replacement hard drive for the old iPod that powers my car's music. Ended up buying the drive from another place but not before the first site billed my account twice and never shipped the drive.

Speaking of buying stuff. Ordered two med kits for our kayaks yesterday. Going to add a few things to them like eye wash kits and WoundSeal Powder to Stop Bleeding once they get here.



Just a day of working all day planned for today.

I can't tell you.

If the app was written properly, i.e. used the facilities to check capabilities before setting something - Does camera support focus, ok, allow focus, then it should work. They removed calls to get the Unique identifier, but, that was deprecated before, and the app store stopped accepting apps that use it a while back anyhow due to privacy concerns.

However, I haven't run across anything that has broken yet. Beta2 is a little snappier but I haven't had it running for more than an hour so far.
