I was reading Apple Insider today and was pleased to see an article about how someone emailed Jobs regarding App Store application crashes. Steve replied and stated that the crash would be fixed sometime in September.

Steve Jobs vows iPhone app crash fix for September

Hopefully this will be the official fix, as I am tired of my apps crashing left and right for no reason. I sure hope that the new Macbook line that I am saving my pennies for (and kindly taking your donations for right here on helpmeswitch.com) doesn't suffer similar problems...

iPhone and iTouch 2.0.2 framework update did not fix app crashes again!

Many of us around the world have been waiting for yet another Apple update to the iPhone and iTouch to hopefully fix the crashing App Store applications problem.

Well I find it unfortunate to report that I just updated my iTouch to version 2.0.2 and sure enough, it did NOT fix the problem. I attempted to launch an app that was on the iTouch prior to the 2.0.2 update and it crashed to the iTouch desktop just as the 2.0 framework and 2.0.1 framework did.

I believe my uninstall an app, reinstall the same app from the iTouch App Store, don't touch anything while the install is happening trick still works to get my App Store apps back up and running. Please see the video I made to show you how to do it here: http://helpmeswitch-pctomac.blogspot.com/2008/08/how-to-fix-itouchiphone-app-store.html 

Come on Apple....come on...

Details to follow, along with a video, provided I can get the quality increased from the previous video attempt....and provided my fix-trick still works.

After repeated App Store app crashes, I have found a quick and easy work-around that doesn't require a system restore!

I will try to create a video and text tutorial on how to get your apps back up and running within minutes tomorrow.

Quick hit tip, just uninstall an App Store app you already have installed and then reinstall it. All of your non-working App Store apps will start to work again! Video tomorrow (I hope).
