Anyone? Is local (over the home network) streaming of podcasts possible in iOS6? I can't for the life of me figure it out.

I have that trouble as well. (BBC Radio 4 Friday Night Comedy Podcast). I added them to my Google Reader via the RSS feed. When I see a new post I just jump into my app and download the podcast.
Apps can't schedule background downloads?
Only Newsstand apps. Commence mockery.
I'd feel bad doing that at this point. =(

It's the worst.
I understand why you wouldn't let every app use your internet connection whenever it wanted, but for the official podcast app not to download podcasts without you needing to open the app just feels so dated.
Preesh, bro. This is one thing I'd agree with you on. I was hoping they'd make an exception for their own podcast app, but as of yet, they have not.

iOS doesn't have "true" multitasking; only certain tasks, such as location services and audio playback, can run in the background.
Not if they're not running in the backgroud. And again, only very specific tasks can do that. Other apps will get shut down shortly after they're not running in the foreground anymore.
Why GAF? Why?
I think you're a little confused there App Store, you're not showing me results you're showing fucking nothing.
When I first played around with the new App Store today I thought this is great. I like the new lists, and updating apps is so much nicer. Then I did a search... (ironically also for Jasmine
At first I thought, did I type that wrong. Then I realized, oh. This is fucking stupid.WanderingWind

Never had bugs until I updated to iOS 6. Now I have blank icons, frozen screens and quick close apps galore. I'm a little annoyed with my former favorite device in the whole wide world.

Yeah, many features of the OS have gone to shit to integrate in a lot of technology that Apple has acquired. The search function is awful - slows down finding the app you were looking for. Maps is incredibad as well. The new phone App just looks broken. Messages continues to transmit iMessages to phones that you don't have anymore.

No I'm sure it's more than one, this is just one of them.
It's iOS wide, and has been since multitasking was implemented. No scheduled downloading. I guessing they don't want people waking up to dead iPhones and iPads after forgetting to plug in the charger.
They've made one exception so far, for Newsstand.

Ok, can anyone get home sharing to work from mountain lion to an ios 6 ipad?
The ipad music app keeps timing out when I connect to my itunes library and home sharing keeps disappearing off of my itunes sidebar. I can log out under advance then log back in and it shows up for like 3 seconds before vanishing again.

I like the fact that you can update apps and install app without being kicked out of the app, but they should definitely offer the option to have a list view or this larger description view when searching for apps.
The really stupid thing is that a timed 'wake up' would be significantly less battery draining than location based notifications, which they DO support. I'd be fine with limiting the granularity, so eg the system allows apps to be signalled once every three hours, and the apps just work around that
BTW, anyone finding the buttons on m.neogaf is less responsive since updating? Edit/post often seem to take two presses for me
Omg u rock, this even lets me stream in 1080p on my ipad 3!

Just tried doing a search for "puzzle" on the App Store. Crashes the App Store app a few seconds later. It's done it 5 times in a row and I've even tried resetting the device.

The Contacts app has been updated!!! Now I can CHOOSE which contacts appear depending on the groups and not just browse them! FINALLY!
Which PvZ does. My save was intact once I restored. You can check which app data is getting backed up if you go to backup options in iCloud.

I'm still stuck on the last iOS6 beta. How do I get up to the final version? Trying to update from the settings menu on my phone or through iTunes doesn't work. =(

You need to do it in iTunes.

I clearly stated that it's not working through iTunes.

Not the normal update process in iTunes though, you have to download the .IPSW separately and point the update to that file.
Just like you do for the betas.

alt/option click on Restore with the downloaded ipsw.

Has anyone else's battery life taken a big hit since updating? An average day usually ends with the battery anywhere from 50%-60%, but in the days since I've updated, it's ending in the 25%-35%. This is with fairly moderate use between the GPS (for traffic) and music (Spotify). I used to go every other day between charges, but it will almost certainly die if I don't charge it nightly.

Can more than one person share photos to the same photo stream? I created a shared stream called Family but I'd like other family members who I invited to it to be able to add photos to it to. Or does everyone have to creat their own stream?

It doesn't need to be a restore. You can choose to update as well. It's the same process, you just click the other button.

I think I'm noticing a larger drain too on my iPad 3, but I need a longer evaluation.

Sadly no. My wife and I wanted to do the same thing as we both take pictures of our daughter on our phones and would love to have one place to share it with family. I hope they add that in the future. For now we just have an iMessage thread with everyone on it that we throw pictures into.

So when I'm browsing on safari the scroll bar at the side of the screen only goes halfway down my iPad screen, I have no way of knowing where abouts on a page I am

Don't think so. 3rd party app that can stream podcasts is probably your best bet, but I'm not too sure why you want to do this.
What is your use case scenario?

Man I don't get wifi sync at all, it's so bad, half the time it doesn't detect my ipod, and other times it detects it, but for some reason ejects the ipod mid sync.

Huh? The latest update gave an option on what to play after a podcast ends.

It died, it died.
I still can't believe it's the exact same shit as the beta. Such a conflict. The black gloss does not flow well at all with the gradient blue textures or the 'soft' white buttons. smhNot digging this dial pad.
