    Apologies if this has already been posted, search doesn't seem to be working for some reason.

    Got this app and it doesn't seem to work. just stuck at loading, then if I press Watch Live, I get Error: Unable to locate live stream.

    This happens over wifi or 3G.:(

    ANy input/incite would be greatly appreciated.:)

    What would this do , if you look at reviews on app store loads are moaning about it not loading , so doubt syncing the iPhone would do anything

    its very tempermental on my iPod Touch too!

    works when it wants to over WiFi and sometimes takes ages to load and of course, i havent got the live feed working since i downloaded it.

    but as said above, its a good app when its working.

    Well, I just had to restore my jailbroken iPhone running on 3.0 because it was getting very slow.

    Now I'm on 3.1.3 and of course no jailbreak and this app is working for me.:rolleyes:

    The app is free, or at least was when I downloaded it weeks back. Haven't gone near it in a long time as the video is poosibly the worst quality I have ever seen.

    Have you had a problem since 2010?

    App working fine for me.

    Ensure that the iOS and App is up to date and do a restart of phone.
