every one of my apps won't work! i will tap on it and then i will imeadetly get the home screen again! please help me! i have tried deleting all apps then snycing it through my computer but it still doesn't work!
on the iphone itself open the app store and download a free app that you don't already have... let it download and install and see if they all work 😀
I've tried every suggested fix I could find on the forums and google, and also a suggestion I got when visiting the Mac Store. Nothing solves the problem permanently, but I have found a quick fix to get applications to open:
1. Download a new application. It opens for a split-second and then closes.
2. In iPhones, deauthorize your computer, then reauthorize it.
3. Connect and sync your iPhone to iTunes.
4. Now, trying the application, it works!
HOWEVER, new applications I download have the same problem, and I have to repeat the method above to get them to open, EVERY TIME I download new applications. So, every time I want to use a new application, I need my laptop and a working internet connection. Very annoying!
Methods I've tried that have failed:
-Restoring my iPhone (I tried this today, and now have 3.0.1 running)
-Deleting applications and reinstalling them
-Rebooting the phone
-After downloading a new app, running other applications that work
-Making sure my iPhone and Macbook use the same account on iTunes
When I tried the rest network settings, it did NOT resolve the problem. All the apps I had installed still failed.
I deleted all of my apps, installed and tested each. They are all working again.
My problem began AFTER I turned synch ON with the music files in my PC (XP, ServicePak 2). Perhaps the Itunes put something on the Iphone which interferred with my Apps. Changed hidden settings?
Its all very strange; Ive had my new Iphone 3G phone for 2 weeks and still learning.
My phone started having the same problem after downloading update 3.0.1. None of the suggestions here have fixed it. I haven't tried resetting to factory defaults and redownloading all apps yet, I am definately not looking forward to that 😟
I'm having the same probs with my wife's phone.
Mine is all synced and working fine, but when I did the same thing with her on our shared macbook itunes library, now her app store apps (not her pre-installed ones) just flash on then disappear when tapped.
I reset network settings, then
I tried deleting them all and redownloading them, but there's no difference.
Those fixes seemed to work for a couple people above (thanks for the ideas!), but not so for me.
Others?
FRUSTRATING!!!! I am having the same issue. None of the Apps I have downloaded to my iPhone are working. Came on suddenly - none of the fixes in the discussions are working. This is obviously a widespread issue many are having and it seems Apple has no real response yet. Any ideas???
Same Issue here - since I downloaded update 3.0.1 none of my apps will open, they immediately crash and whenever i try to download new apps its just says "waiting" for ages. I've tried factory reset, network reset, deleting all content from iphone, deleting all apps, still not working. Really annoying!!!! Any help would be much appreciated!!
OK, I FINALLY got my apps to work again. Not sure why it worked this time, but...
This is what I did:
Deleted all apps I had previously loaded of my phone first.
Then went into iTunes and deleted all apps and moved to Trash.
Went back into App Store and downloaded each one by one. I stopped after each download just to make certain it worked.
I hope this helps. The iPhone is less valuable without the apps.
