iOS7 authentication issues with OWA on exchange 2010
I went out on a leadge, and installed iOS7 on my iPhone 5, and iPad 2, so far most functions seem to work OK.
One very anoying issue I have found is with browsing to my exchange 2010 SP3 OWA webmail portal using the builtin Safari App. When I do this, as expected, I get an authentication window. I enter my credentials, and OWA opens to show me my inbox just fine.
However when I try to click on anything on the page, I am asked to authenticate again, and if I succefully authenticate, I am able to get the desired result. If I don't authenticate, nothing happens.
I tried the same on IOS 6.0.4 and the default Safari App there, and it works just fine.
Have I come accross and IOS 7 bug? Or is there a setting that I can change on iOS7 or exchange 2010 to remede this problem?

I seem to be able to function normally using iOS7 in Exchange 2010 OWA not 100% on the service pack (it says version 14.03.0158)

Spec01,
What version of Exchange 2010 are you running?
Geisrud,
I thought I was on SP3, but as it turns out, I might be SP 2 as my exchange server show Version: 14.02.0347.000. I will try and upgrade to 14.03.0158 at the next opportunity, and then test it.
I will post the results.

We are running SP3.
What kind of authentication methods have been deployed with your OWA?

You need basic authentication as iOS 7 only supports the basic one.
