From the feedback I got from my beta testers I'm quite optimistic in this respect. You will get it offered as a free update through the App Store as soon as Apple releases it. > > How does one back up the iPeng .ipa file?

On a Mac, I use spotlight to find it. You need to sync your iPhone first, though. That said: unless you are afraid that the new version would be something you don't like, right now there is no need to backup for an iPhone 4s. The 4s comes with iOS 5 preinstalled so will support iPeng for at least another year, probably at least two (since iOS 6 is of course available for it). The newest phone that is NOT supported anymore is the iPhone 3 which came out four years ago. It was still sold by Apple until two years ago, though, which is why some people still have working ones (mine is completely unusable, not just because it's an old platform but because it's physically coming apart after falling on the street a few times and the battery is completely down.... it's a four year old phone, only the Nokia 6310i ever survived that long for me).
"Still supported" means that you can re-download it from the App Store at any time. The only problem with "no longer being supported" is when a new version comes out that no longer supports your phone or iOS-version. Since you can always only have a single version of an App in the App Store, the new one then will no longer be compatible with the old device and you can't install it. > > I'm really sorry for all these novice questions...and thank you for > humoring me. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96679 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
