This was posted on the Firemonkeys Website. So, this means that we have brand new active wear coming, right? I mean, unless it carries over from the previous event, but I don't think so.

I have a question,

A few weeks ago they launched another update (basically the same High School Update), and I haven’t updated to that yet, because I’m not sure what the difference is.

Does it mean now I have to download that so that the new update will show up on my appstore? Because now I don’t see Halloween update, only Downtown update. It’s a bit annoying though. My internet connection is not that good, and doing this twice with huge size updates is bothersome.

You shouldn’t have to, you should be able to go right to downloading the Halloween update. Have you tried force closing the App Store? If so and that didn’t work to get the right update to show I would also try turning your device off and then back on.

Shoot, I restarted my phone and it still didn’t work. Then I decided to download that update (HS Downtown 2.0) and now there’s no new update on appstore.

Should I delete and reinstall the app?
