Apple iOS 5 Wireless Sync: Demo

Wireless Syncing has been activated with the release of the 2nd beta of iOS 5 and iTunes 10.5.

In iOS 5.0 beta 2, wireless syncing is now available for the Mac. It requires iTunes 10.5 beta 2 and 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). Be sure your device is plugged into a power source when performing Wireless syncs.
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.

In iOS 5.0 beta 2, wireless syncing is now available for the Mac. It requires iTunes 10.5 beta 2 and OS X 10.6.8 or Lion.

whats the fucking point of this if I have to plug my ipod into my pc

[DetroitBORG]

@1996door You have to do it only once. And technically, you never have to sync to a computer if you use iCloud.

doesnt work for me i checked sync over wifi i plug in my phone into a power supply and no sync! when i go to settings to force a sync you cant press sync now it wont let me

[DetroitBORG]

@awesomeMario11 You have to be a developer, or you can download illegally from various sources. You will need to register your device's UDID with the developer program however.

[mahujedi]

This has yet to work for me as easily as the reviewer made it look. My iPhone 4s is connected to my home wireless network, I plug it into the charger, and iTunes never detects it.

I love Wireless Sync! I don't even have to connect my phone to a power supply to get it working. Wireless Sync is great!
