Airstream Forums iPad app problem

We have had this app on our iPad for 6 months without problems.

I downloaded an update from the App Store the other day, and have not been able to get the app to work properly since.

The app opens to Forums, but current threads will not open and when I go back to Forums, that won't open either. Everything else opens without issue.

Have deleted and reloaded the app twice, same problems.

Help, please.


Maggie

Hi Maggie,


Sorry to hear that you're having difficulty. We'll look on our end to see if we can spot an issue.

Maggie,

I am writing this on my iPad (3 or New iPad).
I don't tend to use the app on my iPad as the screen is large enough to just use the Safari browser.
You got me curious though so I just checked.
I do use it on my iPhone though and have noted no problems.
Good luck finding the issue!
Bruce

Maggie, I am posting this from m ipad using the app. No problems that I can see, though I am using the older IOS, and I know you updated yours. Have you updated it yet? I think there are two updates available.

I got the update yesterday and haven't noticed a problem so far on the iPad 2 running iOS 6.01.

I have had issues going back from a thread to the list of threads. And touching the thread title doesn't work, I found that the > on the right side of the topic line does move me forward, still no backwards navigation (new iPad ois 6). I will just use my safari browser for the time being.

I am completely updated.

I can, of course, access the Forums through Safari, (as I'm doing now) but really like the one-tap accessibility on IPad.

Ummmm, spoiled, yes!

Hmmm, is iOS 6.01 the most current? I should be all up to date there, too, as computer-genius son/24 hour tech support takes care of all that.

He will be back later today, will have him do a look-see.

I found an update in the app store for Air forums, installed it, and it still works properly. I remember having some issues with my iPhone using the app, but that was long ago. I think it had something to do with history settings or allowing notifications.

Try rebooting the iPad. If that doesn't do it, reinstall the app.

I hadn't thought about rebooting. Thanks!

Be right back.

Nope.

Rebooting didn't work, and I have reinstalled 4 times.

However, one of the upsides to having to use Safari is that I really LOVE the emoticons!

I have an iPad 2 with the latest ios 6 . I too downloaded the latest airforums app a few days ago. The notes on the update said it was for greater iPhone 5 support which has the bigger screen. The left side on my iPad 2 of the airforum app is now completely not responsive to any gestures including all control buttons. I did report the problem to the web master who indicated they would look into it but have not heard back since. I'm convinced the new app version has introduced a new bug likely relating to the iPhone 5 screen sizing and introducing an new incompatibility with the ipad 2. My iPad 2 works perfectly well with all other apps.

Same here. On 6.0 and the update screwed up my access. Back to Safari.

Using safari on an iPad 2 ...do any of you have trouble with the search function? My iPad only allows me to enter one letter and then the keyboard doesn't work and I have to hit the search button again to enter more letters... It bugs the heck out of me.

Glad it is not just a fluke with our iPad.

I know the powers-that-be are following this, hope you can get it fixed, folks.

In the meantime, I am enjoying the emoticons.

Hi Maggie,

I, too, had the same problem you described after loading the updated app to my iPad. I did a force-quit on the app and started it again and was then able to move between forums, current, messages, subscribed, etc. without any problems.

Then I read your thread and thought I'd subscribe and THAT'S when I realized I have a problem! The button in the top right corner that lets you reply or subscribe does not work for me. Maybe there are other issues as well but I haven't gone looking for any.

I'm using iOS 6.01 on what used to be called the "New iPad" but now I guess there's a newer "New iPad" so I'll describe mine as the iPad 3 -- the one with the Retina display and the 30-pin connector cable versus the new Lightning cable.

Will watch for another update. . .

Well, isn't that the weirdest thing!

I can subscribe to a thread without problem, have force quit, removed and reloaded the app several times without improvement.

Maybe we have an app issue that mutates among different iPads! Where's Mulder and Scully!
