iPhone, meet Cooliris — Take 2
We’re happy to say that Cooliris for iPhone is back in the iTunes Store! To learn more about the app, see our previous blog article or our website.
If you’ve been following the goings on of Cooliris for iPhone for the last few days, you know about the issue with Apple’s firmware v.2.1, which affected a small number of applications during the uninstall process. Fortunately, our engineers were able to figure out a workaround quickly and we were able to submit a new version to Apple. And, Apple was kind enough to expedite the approval process.
So go download the app now and let us know what you think of it. We’re so sorry for the recent confusion and sincerely hope you enjoy Cooliris for iPhone.

How to Uninstall the Previous Version
If you already have our previous version released a few days ago and want to uninstall it, please read the following instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to a bug in Apple’s firmware v2.1, we recommend you do NOT delete the old Cooliris icon show below in the “Applications” section of the “Library” at this time. You will get a warning message every time you try to sync, unless you keep the old icon in your library. If you would like to be alerted when Apple has fixed this issue in its firmware, please email us at feedback@cooliris.com.
1. On the iPhone, find the Cooliris app with the icon shown to the left. Note this logo that does NOT have the glow affect (like our new version does).
2. Press and hold the icon, and then click the ‘X’.
3. When prompted, hit the “Delete” button.
4. Do NOT delete the icon from the Applications section of the Library.

Cooliris for PC seems to respect my Google safesearch preferences. Can the iPhone version be made to do that or does it have its own setting somewhere?
Thanks.

I’m a little confused. Are you saying I can delete the original cooliris app icon from my springboard as long as I don’t delete anything in the Library/Applications folder? To be honest, I’m not even sure how I’d access the Library/Applications folder.
Clearly, I’m slightly incompetent, but any help would be appreciated.

Too bad I caught this note AFTER I uninstalled Cooliris from my iPhone by removing the icon from iTunes.
What’s with the finger pointing to Apple? It may well be that that’s a bug in the iPhone firmware, but doesn’t Cooliris do any install/uninstall testing before they ship apps?
Does that mean that now I’m stuck with an ever repeating error message? No workaround?
