Does the latest issue upload automatically on the iPad app for Christophorus ? I still only see the Oct/Nov issue when I open the app.

When I open the app there are 3 versions of the October/November issue (German, Intl. English, US English) and 3 versions of the December/January issue. Since I've previously downloaded it, the US version of Oct/Nov is available to read, the others to download. Don't mean to state the obvious, but have you flicked the page to see choices that might be off screen?

That is odd. When I keep flipping I only see the three versions of issue no. 352 after which there is a dead end !!

Yup, 3 versions of issues 352 and 353. Maybe you should delete the app and try loading it again........

That's exactly what I did (even before I read your suggestion) but now the app won't even download and it says my iPad requires an update as this app needs iOS5.

I hear you Woot! I'm borderline obsessed though with IOS upgrades. I do them right away.

Wow guys .. I'm seriously way behind. Love the tab browsing feature. Now I see the whole point of Rodsky's comment.

At this point you'll need to enter your wife's Apple password. After entering the password, the app will start to install. When done, you'll have a new Christophorus icon. When you select it, a choice of issues and languages will appear. Download the one you want, which will take a bit depending on your connection speed. The next time you enter the app you won't have to download the issue again and it will remember where you were in the magazine. Good luck!
Thanks for the tip. I got the app installed just fine. But I must be some kind of iPad dummy. When I open the Christophorus icon, it just says "Updating Kiosk" and then just keeps spinning forever, like it's updating something, but no content is ever loaded.

Frustrated that I can't get at all this cool stuff.

Mine does that "updating kiosk" but only for 10-15 seconds and then you're in. Maybe uninstall and then reinstall. Are you on ios5?
