Hello,

So I got an Iphone for christmas while I was visiting my mom. I got the Iphone, activated it, and used it while I was visiting her. I put on many apps while I was there, using one email account. When I got back home I finally plugged it into a computer, and I accidently used a different email account for the registration of the Iphone.

I am assuming this is what is causing my problem.

The SMS, Email, phone, contacts, everything pre installed on there is working just fine, but all the apps i downloaded work only sometimes on my phone. I don't know what is causing it, but here is what happens.

I click on the app, it pops up like its initializing, then it just exits down to the home screen again.

Please if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this problem, it would be much appreciated.
 
I don't think registering the phone with an alternative email will prevent the applications on the phone from opening. After installing apps it is best to reboot the phone. Have you tried that to see if it alleviates your problem?
 
yes i have rebooted, done that hold top and bottom for ten seconds to reset, i've done all of that several times

i didn't have any problems with the apps till i started plugging it into itunes
 
Make sure that the apps are backed up in itunes and then do a restore and resync your apps back to your phone, that might work. BTW what apps are crashing on you?
 
thats the thing is that its not just one of the apps, its every single one

they pop up in a screen as if to initialize then go back to the main screen

its no good at all


but k ill try the restore or whatever, hope that works.
