Update 1.20.0

Did you all upgrade to the latest version? Any problems

So.... Not well. I didn't know it was out until I saw this post so I went ahead and downloaded the update. But now the database updating that must happen first of all takes forever and then crashes the app. Something similar happened with the last database update and resulted in me losing all of my decks. If that happened this time I'll be very, very sad. And mad. And then I'll cry. And then lose it. And then sleep it off. And then I'll just be frustrated.

Here's to hoping that isn't the case.

In all likelihood your cards and decks will still be there. Since they need to access the database, then if there is a problem with your database they won't show up. Once you fix your database issues your decks should show up again. It has happened to me before.
Although I hope this serves as a reminder of the importance of backing up your stuff too.

Yeah... I kind of don't have a computer to back up to. Died long ago. iPod has been on it's own since. Which is why I was so excited about the Dropbox backup capability.

I hope you're right about the database error though.

MacUser001 please contact me  directly via email if you're still having troubles. Your data should be safe, you have automatic backups. Do not reinstall iMtG though, as this would erase those backups.

I've gone ahead and done that, thanks. The issue is still apparent as ever. My time with the functions of the app that don't use the database are limited until the app crashes.

Ok. In the meantime it would be good if you can find a computer to backup to, and upload your crashlogs to iTunes. Without a computer it may be impossible to fix your problem. Is anyone else having issues with the upgrade?

I'm having the same problem, the upgrading process is blocking all the other functions. I have an ipod touch 2g

As far as I'm aware what you're asking is impossible. If I try to backup my iPod to another computer the only way it will let me is if it erases all content. Which would include iMtG and it's backup files... So I may be screwed, huh?

Hmmm. Maybe. Why don't you join the beta. It may take a few days but if we really want it, we can save your data.

That would be fantastic. Thanks, man.

Well the newest beta you pushed out didn't help at all. Same issue.

Try to crash it a few times so I can see your logs. Try Database Update as well.

I can do that. It will crash after a certain time and then hitting the new action button on the forums or trying to view a linked card will kill it.
And you'll be able to view my logs just because I'm on the beta?


When trying the database update it says database updating is already in progress, please wait.

Ok, both of you can upgrade to 1.21.2 BETA and send me your backups via Support and Feedback -> Report a problem.
