I get this too but i have found a simple solution. Every time after i sync, i go to the app store on the phone and get a new free app. Installing the new app makes all the other apps work. I then go ahead and uninstall the random app and i’m good to go. I have no idea why it works but it does and that’s all that matters. Kinda annoying though.

My applications only work for a split second too and then send me back to the home screen. How do I get them to work again? This all happened after I updated my Iphone to the newest version.

I was having the same issue. Downgrading to iTunes 7.7.043 seems to have fixed it. Apparently this is actually a DRM issue that Apple plans to fix properly in September.

Same happens to me - same phone - same purchase date - some apps direct to phone - some via iTunes. Not only do all non native apps crash after launch - but all my songs have erased themselves too.

Considering refund demand on “not fit for purpose” basis… just because if i have to start fresh, someone on the corporate side has to enter a negative sum in the balance sheet.

As an aside - anyone traveling to Colombia - get a 3g dongle from Moviestar - avoid Comcel as though your life depends on it - it probably does!

This happens to me too and I hate that restore is the only real “solution” that the apple stores gives me… Restoring is a solution, it’s a quick fix… it doesn’t FIX anything, it just starts it over and gives you hope it won’t happen again…

I absolutely HATE losing my text messages when I restore.

Hey Stephen,

Not having the same problem as you, all apps Ive downloaded from the app store direct to my phone work. What I have noticed though is if I download an app through iTunes it won’t sync through to my iphone and all the apps Ive downloaded from app store won’t sync to my computer?

Am i missing something. Time for a bourban
