Hi ALL,

I downloaded the AppStore app for Amazon and while I was able to buy the app I wanted, later on I was having problems with the AppStore app. I opened up the AppStore app and was just browsing up and down on the free apps. Initially when I tapped on an app its description opened up and I could download it if I wanted. But then after a short while when I tapped on an app nothing happened. If I did a tap and hold the app would be highlighted but still nothing would happen. Even if I scrolled to where just a few seconds ago I had tapped on an app to get to its desc, it now would do nothing.

Then I got a warning from Watchdog Lite that an app was misbehaving. It was the AppStore and it was taking up 45% of the CPU time!!! I used the KILL option within Watchdof Lite and that killed the AppStore app. Then the CPU usage dropped to a more reasonable level. I did it again and the same thing happened.

Has anyone else had any problems with Amazon's AppStore app?

Thanks,
Gerry
