Q. I tried to use my account number to access the latest issue on my device but it said it was invalid.
Please contact our mobile support team.
Q. Why didn't the App fully download to my mobile device?
The most likely cause of this problem is an interruption in your Internet connection during the download process. In order to reinitiate the download process on your device, please follow these steps:
  1. Go to the App Store and download the latest version of the NewBeauty App.
  2. Launch the NewBeauty App again and then tap on the Refresh button at the top right of the Library screen. You will now be prompted to log in with your App Store ID. After logging in, all of the downloads that you've previously purchased will resume downloading immediately. If you are trying to download a free preview, just tap on the Download button next to the issue you want, and the download should begin immediately.
Q. Why didn't the App download in a viewable format?
This problem may occur when part of the download is corrupted during the download process or there may be a possible storage space issue on your device. Please check to make sure that you are not out of storage space on your device. You'll need at least 200 MB space available.

If you have the necessary storage space, please follow these steps to correct the problem:
  1. Delete the App from your device by tapping and holding on the NewBeauty icon on your Home screen. Then, tap the X button when the App starts to jiggle and confirm that you want to delete the App.
  2. Once deleted, return to the App Store and download the NewBeauty App again. Once the download is complete, just tap on the Refresh button at the top right of the library screen. You'll then be prompted to log in with your App Store ID. After logging in, your in-App purchase/subscription will then be restored and the download for the App will begin.
Q. Why am I being told that I am in a "sandbox" environment when I try to make a purchase?
The primary cause of this type of error is that your device is "jailbroken." If so, you can choose to restore your device to a regular version of the OS, or you can query your favorite search engine to try to find some work-arounds for in-App purchasing on "jailbroken" devices.

If you continue to have problems, or your device is not "jailbroken," you will need to contact Apple directly for assistance in trouble-shooting a potential problem with your account.
