    I recommend as a personal tip to turn off Wifi. My iPad started syncing all my app's over the air rather than through iTunes. Eating up a considerable amount of Data and doubling up app's. Leaving apps that didn't fully installed on the Home Screen. A restart got rid of them but it was a hassle.

    You can switch off automatic downloads for apps if you go into Settings, then Store. As an aside (and slightly different topic), how should I prepare my iPhone 3gs for expected changeover to iPhone 5? Is there a way to transfer in-app data (like game saves/progress, files recorded within apps, etc), or is that all saved through the backing-up process on iTunes? Not really sure how it works. :confused:

    Yeah but I had set my iPad up as a new one because it failed to update at first and crashed so I had to restore. But that setting was automatically turned on when I had it set up and it start syncing by itself.

    Yeah, they have it as a default for some reason. Handy feature, but they should have given more of a head-up to their users when it was added. I was really surprised when I added a load of apps on the iPad and then went to download a few of them on the iPhone later that day only to find that they were already there. :)
