    Unhappy OS upgrade - itunes purchases not working

    After upgrading my wife's Iphone to IOS 5.1 her Itunes ap purchases no longer work.

    When we try to open an ap the "icon" will quickly flash and then stay at the "desktop" screen

    I'm "assuming" I will have to delete each ap and then re-install it, or is there an easier way??

    Help

    Thanks

    Mike

    Try rebooting the device. Hold down the Power button while also pressing the Home button and don't let go of either button until you see the apple on your screen.
    Experience is what you get when you thought you were getting something else.

    Well I got this fixed too.

    I ended up having to delete all her apps and then reinstalling them. Now if I could just get all her high scores back she would be a happy camper

    I know it's too late to help now, but another option would have been to do a factory reset of the device, and then re-synced with iTunes to re-install everything. It sounds to me like something is just slightly off with the iPhone, and you might see additional problems going forward.
