[nabs-l] iphone issue

[Chris Nusbaum]

Hi Ignasi and all,

You could do it this way, but I did it in a different and (I think) easier
way. If you still are running iOS 5 or 5.1, there should be a new item
showing in your settings about updating to iOS 6. So, what I did was back my
iPod Touch up via iCloud (if you don't know how to do this, please let me
know,) then I went into settings, general, software update and followed the
prompts to update to iOS 6.

Hope this helps,

Chris

You can also just back up your phone and restore to iOS 6 via iTunes. I've
used it on a 4S and also on the iPhone 5 and I don't have this problem.
