I think I'll post this on the istock forums to see if anyone there notices the same thing.  I've been looking and don't see a report of this weirdness.

Who cares anyway.?. who uses iphone.?.

Patrick.......?

I care. You've missed the OP's point entirely. There is a discrepancy in sales between different reporting methods __ and there shouldn't be.

It will be interesting to see what the explanation is.

well I care and yes, you miss the point since you obviously got hung up on your hatred of the iphone.  sheesh.  grow up.

I posted the same thing on the iStock help forum.  let's see if I get a reply.  I checked around more and still don't understand why the discrepancies.  very odd.   hopefully it will all sync up later today.  

this talk is getting KREIZI! my iphone is broken anyway

Excactly my point... who uses it.. so who cares about the discrepancy.?.

P.

if it shows that I have more downloads that istock is not recording then that is a big deal.   I don't get why you are being so negative.

Quote : two weeks later, after contacting owner, still hasn't picked up iphone.
Quote : doesn't seem to be that important.
Quote : just wondering how important that thingy is with all the gadgets and Apps (is this the right expression.?..) and personal (business) data...?.
Quote : for the price he/she payed for it... quit a nonchalance.... ahum.

Any more news on this? Have the mystery sales finally appeared on the website? Have you had any more non-appearing sales since?

nope, no news and these 5 mystery sales are still showing in the app but not on istock.  As far as I know, I've only gotten one additional download today and that one shows in both places just fine as well.  I posted in the istock Help forum but no response there yet.  it's the weekend so I'll wait until tomrrow and maybe someone will reply.

I was on a shoot with a photographer friend this morning - an istock exclusive - and she said she thought she had a similar issue with one download as well and didn't think much of it but was going to go back and check to see if it is indeed the same issue or not.

I also tried to get support from 21Torr folks (the ones who created the app).  Wasn't sure where to go for that help as their website didnt have a support link that I could find, so I posted on their Facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/istockcharts.

I'll be sure to report back here any updates.

Is there an app like that for regular PCs?

It's a phone app that jamirae is referring to...and istock has/had one for Android phones as well because I used to have it.

Tell me if I understand. Someone else makes an app that reports downloads wrong, so you blame IS for the problem? Is that it?

--------------------------------------------
Who says the app is reporting downloads wrong?  Maybe it is or maybe istock actually has a problem?  Personally I'd be shocked if there was a problem at Istock.  Everything at Istock has been running with clockwork precision for months.

Certainly worth a question to Istock.

Please dont read something that is not there into what i wrote. I am not putting blame anywhere.  I am trying to find out where there is a decrepancy.  The "blame" could be on either side at this point because i have yet to get all the facts.

Jamirae - please let us know how this turns out.  Them saying that "new downloads" being reported was an issue but that all was now well does not quite seem to fit your problem which was/is downloads on the app but not on the istock site. As said, do let us know if you get an answer - it's quite curious. 

I'm not sure if this is related, but I noticed over the weekend some issues on the website related to earnings.  My earnings kept going up, but the photos weren't showing up on the last downloaded page.  Still not sure where the money was coming from.

Yes. I've had the same experience over the weekend. It's particularly noticeable immediately after cashing out. The Account Balance jumps up by a few $'s but then there aren't new sales of that value to explain it.
