App Store browsing still rough around the edges
So here is a frustrating experience with the App Store application. Not sure if this happens in iBooks, etc but I'm sure other people can validate.
So I am browsing for an app I want to buy. Let's say I want to browse the entire apps for children section. I go into the popular/best selling apps list and I move the list across and see that the 41st app might be kind interesting. So I touch (click) on it and it takes me to the details of that app. Now this is all working as expected. However, when I go back a page, it starts back at the original view. i.e. Listing apps #1, #2, etc...so again, I have to scroll to the 41st app to start where I left off last. I do this a few times, at the 50th app and then the 55th app and everytime I go back a page, I am presenting with an increasingly irritating view of the list from position #1 again.
Can we please have an App store app that remembers where you were and what position in the page you were on so when users go back a page, we are presented with the page and section of the page where we left off? Please???
According to the T&Cs, Apple monitors/filters these forums and;
General Clause 6. Apple involvement. Apple does not formally provide technical support on the Site. However, any information that is provided by Apple or Apple employees is offered on an “AS IS” basis without warranties of any kind.
So I would suggest that Apple does monitor it for this kind of input but may choose not to respond which I am fine with.
However, thanks for the feedback link. I will post it in there as well.

XML Slideshow a bit rough around the edges
Hey there,
I'm supposed to be wrapping up another xml slideshow and
could use some help ironing out some of the problems.
1. The transitions between sections is a bit harsh, I'd like
to smooth it out some by fading from 1 color to the next or
something.
2. The captions don't sync up with the pictures the first
time around until the pics are cached.
3. When you click on the button of the section you are in,
the slideshow stops.
Just click on main.swf and you'll see what I'm working with.
Thanks a lot. Here's a link to all the files.
http://www.dynodealz.com/slideshow.zipFew suggestions to sharpen it up, add a fade out to the last
graphic shown, especially when changing catagories, and there wait
for the first graphic to load before fading the last.
With the colour tabs you could quickly have flash do the
colour change for you by putting all the colours in one movieclip
and having shape tweens between them which you can simply call when
changing catagory i.e label frame redToGreen and have it simply
shape tween red to green.
You could also fade in the text as well if you used embeded
fonts. Change the description copy font as well. Podium Sans
perhaps.
Other than that looks good, a little tweak of the style and i
think you've got it, nice clean simple -
I'm borrowing a friend's iPod touch until I get another phone and I want to add some apps. I deleted all the apps that weren't needed and then I tried to add some of the apps that I need. I switched the Apple ID account on the iPod and the iCloud account to my own along with all the other apps (Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Instagram, Skype, mail, YouTube, etc.) When i go to the Apple app store and try and update or download a new app it still asks for the old password. How do I get it so when I try and download new stuff it asks for MY password?
It is showing updates because your machine is tied to the original purchase and will remain so until you wipe the drive.
As you purchased it used and the seller obviously did not do what he was supposed to do and that is erase the hard drive and reinstall the original system, you will run in to far more difficult problems when you need to reinstall for whatever reason. The new licensing requirements are that any mac is sold with the original OS - any OS or app obtained at the app store is NOT transferable and the buyer needs to purchase their own license. That means you will not be able to reinstall the OS.
At some point, you will need to try to get either the original install disks (from the seller or Apple) and wipe your drive and reinstall. Then you can download your own licensed copy of Mavericks and any apps you want. -
Hi, I have made a new Apple ID and logged in on my phone, settings > iTunes & app stores, but the app store is still using my old Apple ID. How do I get rid of the old ID and replace it with the new one?

OR...
You could use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID? -
Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
ThanksThis is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours. -
Using ios6 on my iPad I can no longer swipe to hide an app in the App Store. Still works on all other ios and devices. Anyone find the same?
The feature no longer works in iOS 6 so you must not have updated your other devices yet.

iPad 2, iOS 5.0.1, iBooks 2.1Hi,
the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1). -
Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.
Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

I meant to pose this as a question.
It's OK that you didn't pose it as a question because the answer is very plain and simple. You can't go back to where you were in the App Store. That's just the way it works unfortunately. you can be twenty screens in to your current browsing experience, and more often than not, you will go all the way to the beginning once you quit looking at the one app that were investigating.
If you hate this feature, or lack therof - you can send feedback to Apple here.

I deleted all Apps on iPad as they were associated with an out of date Apple ID (which I have forgotten the password) and I could not update them, but the "App Store" logo still shows that there are 2 to be updated and when I go there I cannot delete. Please assist. Thanks.
Why don't you explain what happens when you try to delete these two apps that are showing that they need updates. You can only delete them if they are actually installEd on the iPad. Are they on the device?

Hi,
Please help, unable to read information of application in app store. Still can download but unable to read the application infor before downloading.
I'm using iphone4, ios 6Yes it sounds like your application could be corrupt.
First I would make sure you don't have a program like backup software or virus protection trying to read the files when you try to start the application. If not,
Do you have any backups or data exports? If so, I would try to restore them for the application
If you do what EsbHelper suggests, you will have to recreate the database. I think he is missing a few steps.
If you are going to try to recreate the application, you need to copy your outline rules files calc scripts and report scritps (.otl, CSC, REP and rul files) to s saved directory.
If you delete the directory using the file system, you orphan things in the security file. It's better to try to do it from EAS.
Once it has been deleted, and recreated from EAS, then copy back in the objects. You will have everything but data and security. those will have to be recreated.
As aI said first, the best way to do this is from some sort of backup. othersiwe it can get a bit messy -
I've downloaded OS X Mountain Lion from the App store , it still shows download on purchases . I've downloaded multiple times and still shows download in App store purchasesSoftware is showing OS X 10.8.3 .
Is this what you see?
That Download button is telling you it is available for downloading. Since you have paid for it and you are entitled to multiple downloads, that button is correct. -

I deleted an app but when I try to reinstall it on the App Store, it still says open
Are you deleting by tapping and hodling down on the icon until it wiggles? Have you tried to deleting in in the settings? Settings>General>Usage>Storage>App(name)>Delete App.
Try deleting in the settings and then reset your iPad. To reset rhe iPad, hold down on the sleep and and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the apple Logo appears on the screen. -
