Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-22 Thread RobH.
You got this all upside down.  8.0.2 replaced 8.0.1;  8.1 replaces both.
8.2 is not done yet.

This is just a counting thing, don't understand why it's such an issue.

Hello! Folks: I thought that version 8.1 of the I OS system, or update. Was 
discontinued or recalled by Apple. And I OS 8.2 was issued in stead. I 
downloaded and installed version 8.02 of iOS. Now, I find iOS 8.01 what's

 Same as with 8.  I pick up the phone and locked screen is on.  I push the 
 home button and get the two medium pitch beeps.  I say, Send a message to 
 so-and-so.  Possibility 1, it says What do you want to say, and gives 
 the high-pitched beeps.  I say a message with or with punctuation.  It 
 says ok and nothing else.  I don't know if the message is sent or not.
 Possibility 2, I start to say a message and get two low-pitched beeps and 
 have to start all over again.
 Possibility 3, I say the message, it repeats it back and asks whether I 
 want to send.  I say Send it  or yes, and the  send message sound 
 plays.
 These are in order of their likelihood.

 Good news of sorts: I actually got to ask Siri the Woodchuck question and 
 after an initially interrupted message, it repeated the whole response 
 after a couple of seconds.  So that's some progress at least on one front.
 Btw, thanks for whatever suggestions you have to offer.

Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-22 Thread Bill Gallik
This confusion is all about version control which is how software production 
is orderly maintained.  To the lay person, Versions 8.0.1 and 8.1 may seem to 
be the same; believe me, they are nothing of the sort.

Version 8.0.1 was the immediate response to a quite bug-laden iOS Version 8.0 
in a failed attempt to correct some very severe flaws.  Quickly followed up by 
Version 8.0.2 because 8.0.1 was a complete debacle.

Version 8.1 is the follow-up release to 8.0 with additional features -- not 
simply a patch.

2014-10-22 Thread Brandon A. Olivares
Just to clarify about versioning, there are three parts to the version string:

Major.Minor.Patch

8.0 has a major version 8, and a minor version 0, which is the initial release 
of iOS 8. 8.0.1 is the first patch, or bug fix release, of 8.0. 8.1 is the 
first minor version release, of the major version 8, and if/when a bug fix is 
released for 8.1, it will be 8.1.1.

Brandon did a far better job explaining the version numbering scheme than I 
did; good job Brandon!


And to offer some insight to another issue that was mentioned in this 
thread; I do think it's somewhat confusing when a person has to listen to 
8.0.1 vs. 8.1, it isn't so obvious to somebody who is listening casually 
rather than one who can see or already understands the version numbering 
formats.

Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-22 Thread Raul A. Gallegos
Hi there. I think that there is a confusion of what numbers are and which are 
bigger and which are smaller. The very first release of iOS eight was 8.0 which 
can be thought of as 8.0.0. Then 8.01 came out and then 8.02. Think of 01 and 
zero to like one penny and two pennies. Think of 8.one which is the current 
version a like a whole dollar. So now you tell me which is bigger. One dollar 
or one penny?

Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-22 Thread Brandon A. Olivares
Actually there was never an 8.01 or 8.02. It was 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 as explained 
earlier. The change in the third digit was from patch releases. Now we just got 
a new minor release so it’s 8.1.0.

 Hi there. I think that there is a confusion of what numbers are and which are 
 bigger and which are smaller. The very first release of iOS eight was 8.0 
 which can be thought of as 8.0.0. Then 8.01 came out and then 8.02. Think of 
 01 and zero to like one penny and two pennies. Think of 8.one which is the 
 current version a like a whole dollar. So now you tell me which is bigger. 
 One dollar or one penny?

deciphering the firmward versions - Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-22 Thread Charles Rivard
To me, it's no more confusing than 8, 81, 811 and so on.  It's simple math. 
8, followed by 8.0.1, followed by 8.0.2, followed by 8.1.

Brandon did a far better job explaining the version numbering scheme than I
did; good job Brandon!

And to offer some insight to another issue that was mentioned in this
thread; I do think it's somewhat confusing when a person has to listen to
8.0.1 vs. 8.1, it isn't so obvious to somebody who is listening casually
rather than one who can see or already understands the version numbering
formats.

Re: 8.1 Update

2014-10-21 Thread Richard Turner
What is going on is that you are not noticing the decimal points in the version 
numbers.
8.0.1 was recalled and replaced with 8.0.2.
Yesterday they released 8.1.
HTH,
Richard




The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say on the subject of flying.

 There is an art, it says, or rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in 
learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.

 Same as with 8.  I pick up the phone and locked screen is on.  I push the 
 home button and get the two medium pitch beeps.  I say, Send a message to 
 so-and-so.  Possibility 1, it says What do you want to say, and gives the 
 high-pitched beeps.  I say a message with or with punctuation.  It says ok 
 and nothing else.  I don't know if the message is sent or not.
 Possibility 2, I start to say a message and get two low-pitched beeps and 
 have to start all over again.
 Possibility 3, I say the message, it repeats it back and asks whether I want 
 to send.  I say Send it  or yes, and the send message sound plays.
 These are in order of their likelihood.
  
 Good news of sorts: I actually got to ask Siri the Woodchuck question and 
 after an initially interrupted message, it repeated the whole response after 
 a couple of seconds.  So that's some progress at least on one front.
 Btw, thanks for whatever suggestions you have to offer.

Thank you for the reply. I just noticed it now. Apologies for not noticing it 
earlier I appreciate you getting back to me and letting me know this I assume
