App Store "iOS 5 Bug"

AceGuy78 · Feb 2, 2013, 12:33 AM

Just got my phone swapped out today, and I was in the process of re downloading some apps, when I realized that I was using the old app store from iOS 5 in iOS6. I've seen this problem occur in the early stages of iOS6, but I'm astonished to see it happen again.

I've already tried resetting, closing app from multitask, turning the phone off and on...Not sure what else to do

Again this is a new replacement, Not refurbished, and was running 6.1 when I received it.

Do you prefer the new app store? Many would love to be in your position!

Try restoring it?

I'd think that would be an obvious solution, but I guess not.

Same thing happened to me when I did a restore on mine the other day. Had to do a restore again to get it working right.

Fixed the problem by signing out of my apple ID once or twice. Weird but it worked.
