App Temporarily Unavailable

Trying to install iOS app "Summoner Wars". Many people are getting the "Temporarily Unavailable. Please try later" message and have been for several hours.

Some people have suceeded (some after creating a new Apple ID).

Apple, please fix this as this one is likely to go to the top of the free apps once word spreads.

The delay in time from when the application was submitted was unfortunate, but not surprising, and not a problem. These things take time.


But after two weeks of checking the app store three times a day, only to find that when the app does show up, I can't download it? For more than 24 hours? Unacceptable. I've been considering switching me and my family over to Droid for a while now, and I think this is the final straw. Goodbye, Apple.

I am also encountering the error message "the item you tried to buy is no longer available". It happened first on my iPhone 3GS, and then later on my iPad 3. However, when I switched to a friend's account I was able to download and play the app on both devices without a problem. This is not the solution I'm lookin for, though, as I wish to purchase the additional content available on my own account.


THis seems to be a problem linked to user accounts for whatever strange reason and not a problem with regions, device type or iOS version. If Apple would just fix this, I could give Playdek and them some money.
