AIM Issues On iphone
The most important app for me is AIM... Since I DLed it (day 1), I have yet to get it to work...
Can you guys chime in if you are having the same issues or know how to resolve them...
1) The app randomly crashes on me and kicks me out.
2) I can not figure out how to get my preexisting Buddy List to appear and save.
3) Does the app close automatically when you try to perform any other function?
Your help would be greatly appreciated...

1. I haven't experienced that, but I've only used it for about 5 minutes.
2. My pre-existing BL magically appeared on the phone when I first logged into AIM.
3. Yes, that's a requirement of all Apps on the iPhone... no running in the background. Apple's rule. Probably has something to do with performance (multiple apps running would bog it down) and battery life (forget to really close an App and the processor runs at full tilt till the battery dies.)
Good Luck,

i got "where to"
and
" i want"
both duds,
i'm only given minimal info, not complete, i'd just as well use google maps, search just like i use on my MB
google needs to make a simple separate app for "whats around me"
i wonder how much "fluff" is in the apps store
i'm not buying one till review sites give the OK
adium--where are you???
Only Safari and Solitaire have crashed on me and thats only happened maybe twice each.
When I say "MAJOR" crash... I mean unrecoverable. When I initiated a reboot - it stayed on the silver Apple logo for about 5-minutes. I then tried holding down both buttons again to force a reboot... same, it hung on the silver Apple for several minutes.
I then tried the "longer" hold-down process where it tries to reboot, and then powers-down... then tried booting from that point... same thing, so I let it "sit" on that screen for almost 10-minutes. Nothing. By the time I had gotten home, I was without ANY phone/OS on the unit for about 1/2 hour (good thing I wasn't stranded road-side, eh...?
So, I got home and plugged it into iTunes.
Nothing. Unrecognized.
I then did the recommended "15-second reboot button press" while the iPhone was tethered w/ the USB cord which forced the unit into recovery mode and showed the icon of the USB plug facing the iTunes icon.
iTunes then finally told me it had an iPhone connected that was in recovery mode - do I want to initialize it or restore from a backup.
As I type this, I am roughly 95% through the restore process and I "assume" that it will be back to how it was as-of my last backup.
If this happens again with AIM... I'm gonna be pi**ed-off royally. Let's just hope it was/is a fluke.
Crashes every so often and really is not what I expected anyway
