Richard, you could just turn off Beta downloads and then wait the 3 or 4 weeks until iOS 17.4 is released to the public. At that point you will get the official iOS 17.4 version and you'll be out of the Beta program. I decided for now to also stop using Betas as I am going to the Philippines for a few weeks fairly soon and I won't always have good internet connections and just don't want to deal with often weekly Beta updates so I did what I described above just before iOS 17.3 was officially released. When it did come out for the public I had the upddate just as everybody else, now I just had that small iOS 17.3.1 update Apple released, but otherwise I am off the beta program for now. It's a lot easier than completely resetting your phone.

I have neither. Further more, WALTRPro couldn’t see my iTunes library even though it was in the same place as always. I got realy frustrated and uninstalled the Apple Music app, and Apple Devices app. I had not yet installed the Apple TV app. I then uninstalled iTunes. I tried installing iTunes from Microsoft, but when I then ran WALTRPro it said the version of iTunes I have is not compatible I need to download the one from Apple, after uninstalling the Microsoft Store version. I got that uninstalled, and allowed WALTRPro to download the Apple version. I installed that, and miracle of miracles, my library is back in iTunes, with my music. WALTRPro works again. And until I am forced to change, this is the setup I am sticking with. It is far, far easier to sync zip files of audio books to my iPhone or iPad to use with Voice Dream Reader using WALTRPro than with iTunes. That is almost all I use WALTRPro for. Sometimes to sync an eBook or another file to Voice Dream Reader. Now that I have accomplished this, I’m tempted to wipe my phone to get rid of the iOS beta and start fresh and forget screwing with betas since that messes up doing backups, etc. Richard, USA “Grandma always told us, “Be careful when you pray for patience.
