iPhone 2.0 software and the App Store
I’m experiencing something strange with the iPhone App Store and thought I’d throw out a post to see if others have the same problem.
The vitals:
- I’m running version 5A345 of the iPhone 2.0 software.
- I’m running it on a 16GB iPhone 3G that I purchased on launch day.
- I’ve downloaded every application from the App Store on my iPhone, not through iTunes.
- The problem persists ONLY with non-native (as in downloaded from the App Store) applications. All the applications that shipped with the iPhone 2.0 software are unaffected.
Here’s what’s happening:
- I sync the iPhone 3G to add songs, movies, whatever.
- When the sync/charge is complete, I’ll disconnect the phone and go about my day.
- So I’ll be out and about, and all of a sudden need to do something with an Application I downloaded from the App Store.
- I’ll tap what I want to use and then the App will launch…
- … but then promptly quit, returning me to the home screen.
- I say “f*ck it” and find the closest bar and have a beer.
There are a few steps that I’ve taken to remedy this unfortunate situation:
- I plugged my iPhone 3G in to my Mac and launched iTunes.
- I clicked the big, ugly “Restore” button and downloaded the latest and greatest iPhone 2.0 build.
- I prayed to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that this would work.
- I started a sync of my music, Safari bookmarks and videos.
So here I am… tapped out from praying to his noodly greatness waiting to sync all of my music to the phone. I’ll edit the post if this works with the good news!
