iPhone iOS 6 update

BuntyB

Prior to the update, if I wanted to update an app I had to sign in with my apple id. Now I have updated a few apps this evening and at no time have I had to sign in. Am I missing something? I liked the security of having to sign in to buy or download apps. Can anyone offer advice

Thanks

Yes, Apple have removed the requirement to enter your iTunes password when updating apps or buying new free apps. They finally concluded that this was an unnecessary requirement that did not enhance security. You will of course still require your iTunes password to buy chargeable apps.

Whenever I press one of the Facebook links in my contacts it opens my Lloyds Mobile Banking app instead of Facebook

Randomly fixed itself after a Facebook & Lloyds app update. Don't know which fixed it as they updated at the same time.
Odd.

I also read to plug & unplug a few tims headphones, but I don't have any, so would need to buy some.

Anyone else had this problem.

You can't use this fix unless you jailbreak the phone which I doubt you want to do.

Don't update. iOS 6 is slow, buggy and replaces vital parts like the Google Maps app and podcasts features with far inferior ones.

Unless you backed up your blobs before updating, you can't.
