| Accounts When creating an iCloud account, you can use any Apple ID as long as it is a full email address and not a MobileMe account. If you have a MobileMe account, you can move that account to iCloud. You can find more information on iCloud at: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] FIXED: When setting up an iCloud or MobileMe account using the setup assistant and leaving Find My iPhone on, it might actually turn Find my iPhone off after the setup. Please verify in Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendar/YourAccount that Find my iPhone is toggled On after leaving the setup assistant. FIXED: Enabling iCloud services in Setup Assistant may not always be saved correctly. After completing Setup Assistant you should visit Settings > iCloud to verify the state of the iCloud account. If you have multiple iCloud or MobileMe accounts configured on the device you should also visit each of those accounts in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar to verify each account. FIXED: It is recommended that you disable Bookmarks on multiple accounts. If they are enabled, the results might be undefined. AirPlay Starting in iOS 5, video content in applications and websites are AirPlay-enabled by default. iOS 5 supports AirPlay of video via AV Foundation. Calendar Birthday calendars are not currently available via the icloud.com website or in Windows. They will be available in a future release. FIXED: The default calendar is still the On My iPhone calendar despite setting up an iCloud account during Setup Assistant. As a workaround, reset the default Calendar after finishing Setup Assistant in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Default Calendar. FIXED: Pushing iCloud Calendar data is not working in iOS. To sync your iCloud Calendar, launch the Calendar app or refresh the calendars manually using the Calendars button in the top left corner. iBooks iBooks 1.2.2 may fail to display some text or images in books. Please update to iBooks 1.3 in the App Store. iMessage iMessage beta 1 will be unable to communicate with iMessage users on beta 2 or later. NEW:Setup Assistant does not input AppleID password in for FaceTime of iMessage. interface Builder NEW:The top-level views in a document that uses autolayout cannot have width and height constraints added. To workaround this you can add desired width or height constraint manually in code. NEW:In Interface Builder documents using autolayout and constraints that Xcode generates cannot be deleted. You can “delete” these constraints by creating a user constraint for the behavior you are expecting. For example, if you drag out a button and Xcode generates a leading constraint to the button’s superview, and you wanted a trailing edge to the superview constraint, creating one manually using “Add Constraint => Trailing Constraint to Superview” would remove the leading edge to superview constraint. NEW:It is known that equal widths/heights constraints can be broken on views that fill a container when resizing the window. If you resize the window and a equal widths/height constraint is broken, re-adding it will properly adjust the window to accommodate the constraint. NEW: When editing the value of a constraint in the inspector, the constraint remains selected, and the outline view continues to show the constraint as selected. NEW:In XCode 4.2 when copying views (either a single view or multiple views), both the user defined constraints directly on the selected view and the user defined constraints between the views being copied are copied to the pasteboard. NEW:In Xcode 4.2 for a document using Cocoa Auto Layout, “Select All” in the canvas no longer selects the constraints and subviews of the edited view. If a view is selected, it will only select views. If a constraint is selected, “Select All” will select all constraints. NEW:Changing the segment style of an NSSegmentedControl to “Automatic” might crash in documents using Cocoa Auto Layout. To workaround the issue use an explicit segment style such as Round or Textured, and at runtime, change the segment style to automatic using -[NSSegmentedCell setSegmentStyle:] iPod FIXED: When using the volume buttons on the device, or on headphones, the volume slider in the UI of applications may not update even though the volume level has changed. When changing the host name of an email account in settings, blank messages may be seen in the unified inbox. As a workaround, delete and re-add the account instead of changing its host name. OTA Software Update If you are doing an OTA software update, you will need to re-sync your photos with iTunes.” Photos FIXED: When restoring photo libraries from an iTunes backup, some photos may not appear in the Photos application after restore. Please back up your photos before updating to iOS Beta 5. Reminders NEW: If reminders syncing is enabled for a Yahoo account and there is no reminders collection on the server, it will continually get recreated by the phone. Due to a Yahoo server bug, that collection will show up as an event calendar. Wi-Fi Syncing In iOS 5 beta 4 and later, wireless syncing is now available on Windows as well as the Mac. (This support requires OS X 10.6.8 or Lion.) You will see an option to enable wireless syncing when you connect your device to iTunes with the USB cable. It is recommended you perform your initial sync with a cable after restoring your device. Wireless syncing is triggered automatically when the device is connected to power and on the same network as the paired computer. Or, you can manually trigger a sync from iTunes or from Settings > General > iTunes Sync (same network as paired computer required). If you find issues with apps, media and/or photos synced to your device, you can reset then resync. From Settings > General > Reset, choose Erase all Content and Settings. Then reconnect to iTunes and sync again. FIXED: In some cases, your device may fail to sync contacts, calendars and account settings, or back up to iTunes. If this happens, reboot your device and re-sync |

So what it means for you?
If you activated your UDID and installed the beta, keep in mind that the beta has a timebomb attached to it. On August 4, iOS 5 Beta 1 will stop working (meaning that the build will lock you out of the phone). Remember to sync and maintain regular backups of your stuff (which you should be doing anyway).
But can’t the timebomb be deactivated?!
No. That involves modifying lockdown, which would cause it to return an invalid signature on boot and therefore brick the phone. Since we don’t have an iBoot-level exploit for iOS 5, we can’t break the boot chain.
Will I be able to backup my phone after the build deactivates itself?
I’m not entirely sure, but assume that it doesn’t.
Will it make a difference if I have a Wi-Fi only device and just change the date and time?
Sorry, but that won’t work (from experience).
Will iTunes let me restore 4.3.3 back to my iDevice, and will everything still be there?
Yes! If you have your SHSH backed UP!
Why does Apple timebomb builds?
Because you’re not supposed to be using them for productive uses. They’re meant to help developers port their apps to iOS 5.
