    Collins bird guide 3rd edition in an App

    As I explained above, this is because the app was updated 2-3 times during this period. It was only the last of these updates that fixed the repeated-downgrade problem. Anybody still experiencing the problem should check first that they have installed the latest update (ie post-upgrade update)...

    Collins bird guide 3rd edition in an App

    Apply the currently-available update. They had 2-3 goes at it without effect (or, at least, a couple of updates after the 3rd-edition upgrade failed to fix it), but it is now corrected (for me anyway, and I did suffer from this for quite a long time after upgrading so it was presumably a...

    Collins bird guide 3rd edition in an App

    You think reinstalling rather than updating gets your app updated to 3rd edition for free? :ROFLMAO: Well, good luck with that - and, if it is so, keep quiet about it because it's a bug they'll fix pronto. But, way more likely, if you have already paid for the 2nd-edition app... Updating and...

    Collins bird guide 3rd edition in an App

    But that's an ebook - not an app (that blurb refers to it as the 'Collins Bird Guide App', but all the info there indicates that it's really an ebook). Collins' marketing strategy looks ever more like naked profiteering: sucker the eager punters into buying one format after another - and the...
