    Have you been able to purchase other apps? Could it be a restriction due to Intellectual Property issues US versus Malaysia

    Was attempting to access my Account Details the other day thru my pc but was consistently getting time out errors. Not sure if it was because App World 3 was coming out. After trying about 10 times I was successful.

    Same here! all reports indicate its directly related to Malaysia CC. I'm using Maybank btw, it started happening sometime in August or late July and theres just NO WAY of buying Playbook apps other than app world..

    Anyone got any clues?

    same problem. I am in Chile and I was able to buy for a while. Prices appeared in local currency (CLP) but one I biught something there was a message indicating that my currency switched to US$ because of my payment method, and everything worked OK.
    But now I always get thiz 9300 error, I can't change the currency in PP, because there id no option for mine...
    so I am unable to buy.

    Are you able to accessBlackBerry AppWorld from a desktop and notebook computer to download the app to your computer and then transfer/install the app onto the tablet using BlackBerry Desktop Manager Software? Refer to this article for instructions.

    Ive tried everything what there is to find on the internet about this problem. Some things might work for some people. but i tried them all. and still nothing. error 1000 is what i get. tried directly with visa NO GO, paypal NO GO, authorized anything possible NO GO. resets. swipes. new paypal account, nothing nothing nothing works.
    I think have to wait until next year february when my playbook is already 1 year old, and then maybe with the new OS that i might be having the privilege to buy an app :-) COL Crying Out Loud.

    Go to appworld on your phone, go to 'my world' , click bb button and choose 'pmt options' choose 'paypal' option, click next and log in to verify your account. My login info was wrong and once i changed it and logged in I was able to buy apps in appworld using paypal.

    I haven't had AppWorld phone problems, but I when I tried to buy two apps in AppWorld on my new PlayBook (OS 1.0.8.6067), I got "Problem encountered with PayPay authorization. Error: 579024"

    I followed the instructions from CosmicHeretic on my phone in AppWorld 3.1.0.56, except that from its main menu, I clicked on My Account, not My World. Then Payment Options, log in to BB ID with its password, choose PayPal, then log in to PayPal with its password.

    Now I can buy apps on my PlayBook.
