    Question about updates, I have more apps than pages and today, I had 19 updates so I clicked update all. However, I must have stopped using my iPod while the updates were still installing and I guess I lost wifi so now instead of where some of those apps would usually be all of my apps that are not on any of my available pages have taken there spots in alphabetical order.
    When searching for the apps, they don't come up, however when going to the app store and searching for them they say installed. Anybody know a way to fix this, thanks in advanced.

    Did you remember to reboot your iPod?

    If so, and this still happened, I would say "quick" fix would be to go into your iTunes account via PC or Mac, go to the App folder, and hit "check for updates". The Apps should then be updated on your PC or Mac, then just connect your iPod to update them.

    Thanks for the quick reply after rebooting they now come up when I search, but I guess there's no way of getting them back to where I had them without removing them and losing all my data, I wish there was a way to move and delete apps when you search them. Thanks again I appreciate the help.

    Unless you're firmly charted you'll be better off if they approved it next week. I had 2 updates approved and they're already buried so deep under apps that start with "A" that no new users will see'm.

    I feel sorry for devs that had new apps approved today - they got seriously shafted.

    That's such a bummer. You're right, it'd be better to come out next week actually.

    Hurry and make a few "bug fixes" and resubmit :D

    It's something *normal*.
    We are now entering the phase where the App Store is no longer a gold mine, and every trick is being tried to boost sales.

    You think you have seen it all?
    How about a very basic game with very basic graphics, in which you have to sort numbers on a grid, being sold for $99.99
    Yes, there is no typo. It is $99.99 so people think it's $0.99 and accidentally buy it.

    How about an app named exactly "iDracula" being sold for $0.99 to capitalize on the succes of the famous game iDracula? All this app does, is show a photo of a vampire and play some vampire sounds when you press a button.
    Definately ... a MUST HAVE.

    Apple should step up ... as this is not heading in the right direction.

    Yeah, and the BIA update actually includes something that isn't bug fixes/compatibility issues.
    They have actually listened for once and improved the driving controls and made the tutorial more detailed :).
    This is a good sign. I hope they improve their games like this more often in the future.

    I just got 15, wish apple would say what the hold up was. Kinda ridiculous how out of nowhere they approve everything at once, but for the last month almost NOTHING got approved. Hmmm...

    I've had that problem since 3.0 update. Got fed up this morning and reset network settings. Seems much better now. Try it - go to Settings > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

    I had 2 batches of updates totaling 26 so far.

    Apple just pulled an interesting trick on me :)
    The "lite" version of nano fighter was approved today, but the update to the paid version is still pending even though that was submitted before. Hopefully people don't get too confused as to why they're different.

    Link to free version (goes to iTunes)
