iOS 6 beta – How do I install it? How can I update them? What happens when a version expires? Why can't I restore a backup?

  Since it started iOS 6 I received all kinds of questions related to this version of the operating system and considering that iOS 6 beta 3 could be released today, I think it would be ideal to answer some of them. To begin with, I will tell you that although Apple took measures to close some websites that sold access to iOS 6, you you can use this method to install iOS 6 on your iDevice, but I'm telling you right now that the method doesn't work for everyone. Let's say that you have already managed to install iOS 6, what happens when a new version appears? Well, when a new beta version of iOS 6 appears, go in Settings>General>Software Update and follow the OTA update process to update. This process does not delete your data applications from your iDevices and does not require you to reactivate the terminal. OTA Update is the simplest method to update iOS without using a computer and without doing a complete restore.

  Coming to the last question, some of you have been wondering what happens when an iOS beta expires. The answer is simple: your iDevice freezes completely and you will be forced to restore it to use it again. Of course, updating each beta version of iOS will ensure that you will not end up with your iDevice locked. Practically, if you install iOS 6 once, you can stay with it until the release of the official version, "jumping" from beta version to beta version without the slightest problem.

  Finally, I warn you that the backups made on iOS 6 cannot be reinstalled in iOS 5.x if you are thinking of returning to such a version of iOS. You can use a backup of iOS 5.x after installing iOS 6, but the reverse process is impossible, Apple forces developers who switch to iOS 6 to stay there permanently. Having said that, I hope you enjoy using iOS 6.
