Hey Emeraldcollector;
Yep, logged in as the same iTunes account that I used to purchase the track packs + Tap Tap Coldplay/GaGa, still won't let me restore purchases.

Retrieving Purchased Content on a Replacement Device

I recently had a problem with my iPhone 3G, under which Apple offered me a replacement device. On my previous device, I had purchased the 'Foo Fighters' 6 pack bundle, as well as imported in content from other Tapulous apps I had purchased; Lady GaGa Revenge and Coldplay. This was working all nicely, and I thought it'd be easy enough to get this all going on my replacement device.
Unfortunately, while I was able to get my Tapulous profile on the new device (avatar+coints, etc), it won't let me restore my purchased content. Restore Purchased Tracks (in Options and in the Tap Tap Store) tell me that 'there are no purchased tracks associated with your Tapulous profile' even though it's the same profile that had the Coldplay/Lady GaGa/Foo Fighters tracks, just on a different device!
I'm happy to provide my UDIDs for both my original iPhone and my replacement if it's something you'll need to do from your end. My Tapulous username is 'BeauGiles'.

Hoping to get this sorted without having to shell out any more $$$.
:(

- Beau

Bit happier with the ability to do this with 1.11 today, but it's either BNO News sounds or the default iPhone sounds - it'd be cooler if you added more unique sounds.

I'd also like to see some more.. 'calmer' sounds. I seriously jump everytime I receive a notification!

Are you using a jailbroken iPhone? This is the reason I was receiving the exact same error message while trying to use in-app purchases in another app (Tap Tap Revenge 3)

If this isn't resolved I might have to downgrade to the original version, without the fancy sounds/etc :( – Beau Giles, on October 12, 2009 11:29

If only I could play these M4C files in QuickTime/iTunes. Dammit :( – Beau Giles, on October 08, 2009 11:12

Beau Giles replied on October 07, 2009 07:34 to the problem ""This is not a Test User account. Please create a new account in the Sandbox environment." s this mean???" in Tapulous:

Confirmed it's a jailbreak issue; I have just restored my iPhone 3G 3.1 (jailbroken using PwnageTool) officially activated + unlocked to the stock 3.1 firmware and in-app purchases work.

I'd hazard a guess that it's PwnageTool that breaks in-app purchases if people are having no problems after using redsn0w - unfortunately pwnagetool is the only way to jailbreak an iPhone or iPod when wanting to run the 3.1 firmware, at least for now.

Hoping redsn0w comes out soon; I miss my themes+SSH!

However, at least now I can rock out to Foo Fighters and The Killers in Tap Tap Revenge 3. :)

The level cash/"coins" are for avatar items I believe. – Beau Giles, on October 07, 2009 02:12

Yeah, I'm getting this problem on my jailbroken iPhone 3G. Damn. :(

I sent my UDID several days ago and the app still says I'm currently on the free trial. Any updates?

Daniel I'll send my UDID tomorrow (it's 1:16am here and I'm off to bed) - also wondering if you want the receipt from Apple? – Beau Giles, on October 02, 2009 15:47

So I see the update has gone live in the App Store - now what happens re: subscriptions and the likes?

Preference Pane needs 64bit update for Snow Leopard

The AppsFire preference pane is not 64-bit, and as such requires a restart of System Preferences in 32bit for it to operate under Snow Leopard

I'd also like this. I'd love for the tracker to be as transparent as possible, so I don't even know it's doing it's thing! :)
