Apple Seeds iOS 5 Beta 4 to Developers, Over-The-Air Updating Going Live

Apple today seeded the fourth beta version of iOS 5 to developers, continuing progress on the next-generation mobile operating system for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch set for public release in the fall alongside iCloud. The new version is listed as Build 9A5274d.


iOS 5 Beta 4
We've yet to hear word of specific changes in the release, although it does appear that Apple has also issued it as an over-the-air update for those running iOS 5 Beta 3, although users are reporting errors when trying to access it via that method. We'll provide updates as more information surfaces.

Update: Over-the-air updating seems to be working now, and saves nearly 700MB of downloading vs. the full size download.

Update: BGR has the full change log.

Update: Several readers pointed out that to perform an over-the-air software upgrade, the iOS device must have at least 50% battery life left, or be plugged into the wall charger or a computer.
