App store problem

I guess you've probably solved this problem now, but - just in case....

Some categories only have a single page of apps, so the 'next page' button is always gray.

You need to wait for the app icons to download before the button becomes active.

Other than that, I can't see what the problem would be.

Hope you manage to fix it...

Hi!
I'm afraid this problem has not yet been solved. It happens when there is any installed application on page 1. If page 1 does not include an installed application, arrow for next page is active; otherwise, next page arrow grays out.
 
I agree. No installs on the first page and all is good. If you have something installed on first page of results then next arrow is greyed out.
 
To verify your THEORY..

YES! there is an INSTALLED app on page 1, thus not letting me to go to page 2.

About upgrading OS.. I dont think that is it.. From other problem posts on other FORUMS, everyone is all across the board with iOS versions.
 
ANNOYING WORK AROUND:

Completely sign out of your account in the App Store, so it can not recognize what is INSTALLED or not.

All the pages were then available to me.
 
I don't know how or when, but it seems to be solved without an iOS update. It wasn't working with 4.3.2, now it is. Anyhow, thanks.
 
Another problem.
There are several parameters to refine a search: category, price, device, etc. And a sort parameter to have results sorted by Relevance, Popularity, etc. If you tap on a resulting app and then buy it or visit its website, when you return to the results, all search parameters are reset and you're back to page one.
 
I'm impressed with the Apple team's fast response! Yes, they fixed it! Maybe they just could do one more fix and also keep the sorting option unchanged? Many thanks and congratulations!
