Yesterday Apple unlocked my Iphone.

OK, let's try this:

Connect your phone to itunes, go up to Store, and while the phone is connected, select authorize this computer, then download any free app & sync it to your phone. Disconnect your phone, turn the phone off, then back on & see if the problem goes away.

Ok tried that now too.
Also tried it like this.
I uninstalled Itunes, rebooted MacBook, Installed Itunes, created a new Itunes account. downloaded a app did a sync with the iphone.
Tried to start the app, had a startup screen from the app for about 2 secounds then back to the main schreen from the iphone.
And still now apps will run. only the original apps that come with the iphone will run. Nothing that one can download from the store.
I have the feeling that it has something to do with the copy protection from the Itunes Store. There must be some kind of bug in the rights management and the unlocking of the phone. I just talked with two other guys that also have the phone unlocked since the weekend they have the same problem. One guy say about half of his Apps are running the other guy has the same problem as I do.
Apple and T-mobile say that they have not heard of any problems like this???

Your reasoning seems on the right track, it appears to be a permissions problem. Do you have an apple store near you to make an appointment with the geniuses?

At any rate, my post will keep this on the first page for someone with a better idea to make suggestions.
