HELP **Known fixes** Harp/Noise loop/crashing/not loading/can't connect to server

Many thanks for the fix DanaK, bailed me out in under 24 hours. Exceptionally generous and a wonderful part of the community.

Soooo, I'm harped out again :(

Happened last night after leveling up, collecting bonus donuts, exiting the game, and when opening the game again: harps.

Tried several times to get back into the game on my iPad2, but no such luck, so this morning I sent a pm to one of the harp helpers mentioned in this post.

Man, I cannot wait till next week when we'll be getting an iPad4. Then I should be able to solve the problem myself (not to mention helping others)

I've been frozen at home screen for 2.5 days.

Last time I played I had just leveled up (I'm at level 26) and did the donut bonus - got 3 donuts. Closed the game and went back a few minutes later and it was frozen.

I'm using an iPhone 4. I'll try these fixes when I get home from work, and if that doesn't work, I'll be messaging one of you! :P

Hope I get the donut glitch, haha..

Which way gives free doughnuts? :D

I've now rescued 18 people in 2 days and have 2 other requests pending. Glad to see there are others doing this. Lots of harpies victims!

If I have the harp sound and I'm playing on a iphone 3gs can u fix my game???

Thank you so much Spallan - you are my hero :mrgreen:

Got my game up and running again within very short time of my pm.

Thought I might chime in here. I have an IPad 2 and have only been playing TSTO on this device. Got the harpies about 4 days ago. I was able to get back in today (with ~900 donuts :D).

My game kept crashing when I tried the fixes listed here. I didn't change my auto lock or delete background apps, I just tapped my screen whenever it went darker. So those whose game keeps crashing when trying the fix, don't despair, it will fix just keep trying.

Also, to all those people who got extra donuts, did they just appear, or did you have to continuously tap the bonus level donut mini game? I had to do that and got a crap load of donuts, although I would have gotten more had I gotten 3 donuts each time :P

Good luck to those affected.

Good to know! How long did it take you to get back in? I got harped for the first time a few days ago as well and I've been in fear ever since of getting it again. I also have an iPad 2.

I was out for about 4 days, only took me about 10-15 mins to get back into my town. This is the first bug/glitch/curse that I've encountered since I started playing TSTO back when it re launched in 2012. I tried fixing it on my iPhone 4 and my dads new iPad but that didn't help. Bt yeah, the fix does work on iPad 2, just gotta keep at it.
