App Won't Copy Icon to iPhone - Help !

[jaskra]

I bought Trism and Marple on my Mac via iTunes App Store on the same day.
Marple loaded fine and I was playing it but sort of forgot I bought Trism.

I tried to run it yesterday and realized the icon is not on my iPhone.
In iTunes, it is listed in the Applications View, I can click "Show in Finder" and Trism 1.3.ipa is on my Mac but when I try to unsync and sync back to iPhone, it is like it is invisible and does not sync it.

I tried deleting it from find, removing it from iPhone and then re-importing to iTunes and resync but still no dice.

Has anyone else had this problem where an app will not copy over to the phone?

(also note that I have installed other apps since then and they all work fine so it seems to be specific to Trism, I wonder if the download is corrupted somehow and that is why it won't install but I get no error messages - it looks like it is working but just does not sync)

Try buying it again via the iPhone. Since it's not on the iPhone you should be informed that you've already bought it, and asked if you want to download it again. Do so.

great idea - thanks
I just realized that it needs 2.2.1 to run which is probably why it won't copy over - upgrading now

cheers

Would be nice of iTunes to tell you that though, wouldn't it? Grrr.

Good luck!

If you try downloading it on the iPhone it does tell you that you need a higher firmware.
