Update 20 August: eBuddy for iPhone 3.1.1 is now available in the App Store. This new version fixes the issue with Group Sorting.
Hi,
We found a major bug in eBuddy for iPhone 3.1.0 (the update that we released yesterday).
* What happens?
Everything works fine except …. when you enable Sort buddy list by Groups, the app crashes at startup
* How can you fix this?
Just delete the eBuddy app and re-install it:
1. Tap and hold the eBuddy icon on the Home screen until an “X” appears on the upper-left corner
2. Tap the “X” and tap “Delete” to confirm you want to delete the eBuddy app
3. Tap the Home button
4. Go to the App Store to find eBuddy and re-install it.
If you have still have problems using eBuddy, please send an email to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com and we’ll try to solve it for you.
Note: Do not enable “Sort buddy list by Groups” in Settings.
We are working on an update to get group sorting working again and we’ll submit it to the App Store ASAP. We’ll keep you posted on when the new update will be available.
We apologize for this and thank you for your patience!

Yes It’s true. I have found the same problem.
After updating to the new version the group chat icon is no longer visible? Do you need another bug fix to fix a fix?
I was ust wondering if sony Ericsson W810i has got that
service please advice
I also noticed that there’s no more group chat button.
Also it doesn’t save the chats upon exit anymore.
Actually it looks like it somehow reverted to an old version.
Check out the user name and personal message window. It’s the old version without the big display picture.
Uhmm when u un install the new ebuddy app , and reinstall it … It downloads the old one… Or um please try doing your thoughtful advice and you can see what I mean
@Dick Wu @Heronymo @Brayden551 You’re correct, in this update we removed some of the new functionality to make sure you don’t run into any problems. Don’t worry, we are working on an update with all the new functions and more!
I’m having a problem with the Push!
i have it set on Settings>notifications and in ebuddy to 30 min.
still cannot see any notification sound or vibration when i exit (for less than 30min sure).
when i go back to the application i got them all at once.

@Asaad: Could you send us some info to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com? Please include your eBuddy ID as well. Thanks.

You’ve made some good arguments regarding the usage of ebuddy on i-phone, but I’m sure there are people who will disagree with some points.
So good
I have sent a detailed email on what is happening with the push and no one answered
just the auto responder.
thanks.
@Asaad We’re still looking at your feedback. We’ll get back to you as soon as possible!
Thanks a lot. other than that the application is awesome
keep the good work guys.

I am having problems with the Push!
I have an iphone 3GS. I receive vibrating notifications fine, BUT I am unable to receive any SOUND notifications. The sound in my phone settings as well as the e-buddy app are both on and my java is enabled. Please help! It’s driving me crazy!
Thank you!
@Abigail We do send all push notifications with sound, so we’re not really sure what the problem could be. Do you have your vibration switch turned on? If not, maybe somehow the notification sound included with the app is broken/missing. Could you try to remove and install the app again?
Is there ever going to be an option to sign on as invisible or appear offline?
I have that as default on my PC and I’ve heard that the ebuddy website does have that option. I mean MSN mainly
@Lexy You can already set your status to ‘appear offline’ in the My Info screen. Thanks for your suggestion about being able to do this at sign in, we are taking it into consideration.
was when an update?
landscape keyboard pretty pls with cherry on top, now !
just did an update for ebuddy on my iphone 3Gs with firmware 3.2, the icon seems to have gone missing, cannot find it anywhere, however i know its somewhere on the phone cos i still have the settings for it like push notifications etc

Push notifications are broken. I’m using another account on my Mac to send myself a message on Yahoo, signed in on my iPhone with Push Notifications enabled and an hour timeout, but eBuddy isn’t doing a thing. I open eBuddy, and magically it figures out I have a message.
Ditto MSN.
Also, AOL gets upset if you log in from more than one location, and sends you a message to all your logins, letting you know. Doesn’t happen with eBuddy. Obviously, when I close the iPhone app, I’m logged out, otherwise I would get a message about multiple logins, and I don’t.
So, yeah, Push: fully broken.
@tgb Could you send an e-mail with a description of these issue and your account details to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com so we can take a look at it? Thanks.
when an update
my ebuddy name keeps reverting back to my default name everytime I log in. why won’t it stay on the name I want it to be??
I have the same problem. Also on Microsoft Messenger for Mac. To make it worse my name reverts back to something like: adnvioanvioaeva. On my Mac its not really a problem, takes like 2 seconds. But when online with my iPhone, it takes really long and the app is’nt always that fast.
Push notifications not working.
I have ebuddy pro and iPhone 3G with OS 3.0.notifications are enabled in iPhone settings and in ebuddy settings but nothing works.in ebuddy settings it keeps on giving me a message the push notifications are disabled.can you please advise.I emailed you twice before but I didn’t get any answer
I do not get any push notification on my Iphone with OS 3.1.2 with my ebuddy Pro…Plz Help me
i cant create an id in my iphone its shows(try again later )??!!
When i log on my phone tells me that none of my contacts are online when infact they are because ive talked to them on the computer then signed on to my iphone and it doesnt show them as online. Is there anyway to fix this without paying to install it again?
@Samer @Ahsan @Jodie Could you please send an e-mail to feedback_iphone@ebuddy.com with your eBuddy ID so we can look at it? Thanks!
I have ebuddy pro and the 3.1.2. software and I also tried sending me messages, but notifications don’t seem to work.
I’m having the same problem. Vibrate will work, but it doesn’t matter where I am, in a chat, in ebuddy, or on the home screen, I don’t get any sound.
I bought the eBuddy Pro, installed on 3.1.2, but no push nonification received, I tested using gtalk, when I login ebuddy, I immediatly receive the message from gtalk.
I can receive email push notification with no problem.
Pls help to tell what’s wrong.
Í cannot able to login cöming error that password or id is wrong
thank you
works fine except facebook cant log in
ive got multiple accounts on ebuddy. How do delete an email account on ebuddy app?
When someone sends me a message on ebuddy i dont get notification that i have a message until i actually open up ebuddy
I have some issues with eBuddy and push notifications.
When I ‘close’ my iPhone with eBuddy active, it will vibrate on msg recieved for about 1-2 minutes before totally ignoring eBuddy. Also there is no sound warning when it’s open/closed.
When I have eBuddy closed it won’t push at all. (yes it’s enabled in all settings). And it will only load all msg’s when I open eBuddy again.
I read this ‘blog’ bit but I figured you’d have a solution by now.
I’m having the exact same problem as plapp. A few months ago it worked fine though.. But now it’s been not working for 2-3 weeks.
delete all the accounts set up by michellegeorge5@live.com because i can not set not only gat itwill not let me in under my email adress michellegeorge5@live.com and i need my ebuddy on my accout sort it know
