Yes, I can get it to the multitasking view. That said, when I get there none of my apps are showing screenshots of what they're doing. They're almost all just blank or the boot up flash screen. I can't open any apps either, tapping them does nothing. When I try to tap tje home screen it just takes me to the lock screen again.
Oh okay, missed the Camera app one. Should have read the whole article. I couldn't get that one to work.

No they did. Apple knows ipad 3 will perform even worse than 2 for obvious reasons

My father had problems with his iPad 3 just moments after he installed iOs 7 on it. The problem was fixed when I changes the settings to remove the 3D effect from the wallpapers. That effect made the rotating function among other things become reallly glitchy.

I see it
That's not a new reminder button, thats to make a new list. Completely different. Other sites have noted the change i mentioned.

You mean inside an individual list ? But how hard is it to scroll down in one flick unless you have 100s of reminders in one singular list instead of divided by subject or 100s in a subject none of which are completed. Its a single flick down, double click on empty line works much better

I have iTunes Match and I just started getting duplicate song titles in my music player on iPhone...what's up with that and how do I fix it?
Yes inside an individual list, i preferred the constant plus button, why not have both. Also downcasts new design seems to have some usability issues on ipad mini, the new volume slider does not respond most of the time when i try to adjust it because its too small now, sometimes i get lucky and manage to adjust it,

That made the bar more apparent - I'm wanting it more see through.
How do you fix it? Cancel iTunes Match. The biggest ripoff in tech.
To really answer your question, I'm not sure. Back when I had iTunes Match, it would occasionally make copies of songs I uploaded to the cloud. It wouldn't always do this though. Could never figure out a solution, so I just got into the habit of manually deleting the duplicates.
How is it a rip off?
I get all of my songs backed up and synced between all my devices. I can either download them or play them over the cloud. It also gives me high quality audio versions of my files. What's not to like? It's cheap as fuck too.

What?
It's 30 bucks a year to have all your songs available across all devices at any time. Its less than pocket change. I don't even use it - I use Rdio - but calling that the 'biggest ripoff in tech' is absurd.
My rant from the iTunes thread:
Besides, iOS7 seems to allow you to download any music to your phone which you have uploaded to the cloud, which didn't seem to be the case before. Sure, it's limited to the amount of music you can fit in your cloud storage, but that was pretty much all I used iTunes Match for.
Ughh, not upgrading my Ipad confirmed. I am using jailbreak with an app that allows custom folders that are huge in size and allow scrolling. Can't go back to something like a 3 x 3 square ;p.

I certainly don't find it to be a ripoff, but it sure is a pain in the ass to figure out how to get music to display properly on my iPhone...all these duplicates and missing album art and whatnot. I might just have to turn off Match on my phone and do it the old fashioned way again.
There is scrolling, but only 3x3 visible at any time. Disliking the performance hit on my ipad.
Fair enough.
I used to have problems with syncing towards the start but it has been flawless for a while. I do get some duplicates though.
The ad free iTunes Radio addition is nice too. At least when it's released in the UK.

Ah, I never had any of those streaming issues with mine. But that'd be a deal breaker for sure.

Looooving iTunes Radio. Quick question, may have been asked, how do I add one of the featured stations to my list?
I had this happen with the GM after using the beta for a while. i had downloaded versions that were showing up as duplicates with the cloud versions.
try this (worked for me)
go to settings, gen, usage, and delete all the music files there.
turn itunes match off, then on (may not be necessary).
duplicates should be gone. re-download the songs for local playback as necessary.
edit: @royalan. your experience with itunes match is not the same as everyone else’s. i’d say it’s an exception to the rule. the stuttering and extremely slow syncing issues, specifically. as for your comment about it shouldn’t be a paid service, I don’t get that at all. just the ability to get HQ versions of old 128 kbps MP3s - regardless of source - or have uploaded versions of stuff not in the itunes store is worth the money.
Wow my experience with it is almost completely different. At first it was buggy, but now wit works pretty flawlessly. My music appears on my phone pretty soon after uploading it, and it streams just as well as other streaming services.
I use both match and mog, and I love it.
Sounds like you had a network problem. Streaming is great for me, and it eliminated my need to sync with iTunes. Match is great and welll worth the money.
Now that it makes iTunes Radio ad free, it's an even greater value.

I like the OS itself but the white space, brightness, and color is a bit much. Is there a way to tone it down a bit? I already have the brightness to less than a quarter.
Hmmm, I wonder what changed to make it "not" buggy.
Strange network issue to have, it only affecting iTunes Match and whatnot.
And I fail to see how it's a value at all when Apple's biggest competitors offer the same service to their users for free and have for years.
At this point it's a principle thing for me. It's only 30 bucks a year, sure, but I refuse to give Apple even a dime of my money for something that's as blatant a ripoff as iTunes Match, despite whatever conveniences it provides. They're only conveniences because Apple says so; they're "included features" on other platforms.

It's snappy as hell on my 4S. Chuffed! But why is this happening, with my contacts name appearing as email addesses? Never did that before...

itunes radio seems cool but I pay for Spotify so...
If it was a problem with the service itself, it would be rather widespread.
*shrug* That's fine. Others do. If you are going to tell people something is a blatant ripoff, those that find value will disagree.
Which service are you currently using? IIRC there are still some differences between the various services. In addition, if you are using an actual iOS device the experience isn't likely to be the 'same' from service to service.
I rarely use Spotify for the radio feature. The artist discographies and custom playlists are what make it worthwhile for me. So if iTunes radio is the best in class, it should complement my set up rather than replace it.

Bless.
The buggy period was literally the first month or two that it was released, so that's probably why it was buggy. Tons of people were jumping on it, and there was still some bugs. It happens. That and I had a fucking massive library to match.
Now, though, it works pretty flawlessly. Only time I have a problem streaming is when I hit a pretty dead spot in my 3G coverage (and that really only happens when I drive to my parents house because they live in the middle of fucking nowhere). If I've got good coverage there's no lag or anything on song streaming. Works pretty much as good as the actual streaming services.
I suppose it is still a bit buggy for me in grabbing cover art sometimes, but meh. I'm not going to get that nitpicky when for the most part it does work.
I bet they'll release an update shortly containing an "updated speaker profile" for the 4. They did that for an earlier release to fix the speakerphone volume IIRC.
Any GAF impressions on iOS7 with a iPhone 4? I read the Anandtech article on the subject, but wanted to get some real user impressions. I'm currently running 5.1.1 jailbroken on Straight Talk. I just updated all apps, and the phone runs perfectly. Any real persuasion to upgrade?
It works pretty well on my phone. Honestly works better than iOS6 did, but that may be because I just needed a fresh reinstall or something. It does look and feel slicker than 6 for sure. Not sure just how much you'd NEED to since I'm sure you can get a lot of the cool features and looks through jailbreaks.

Mine is faster after the update, weird.
