Foursquare recently updated their app to 3.1.5, and with that update it brought about a couple of fixes to minor bugs. However, there is one complaint that I have heard from a few BlackBerry Foursquare users. The issues is with the BBM 6 Social Connect, getting an error message like this one.

“Unable to connect to BBM. maximum downloads of foursquare reached.” This issue keeps you from sharing your location with your BBM contacts (which is the entire purpose of BBM Connect), however it still allows you to share with facebook, twitter, and your foursquare friends. Even when you check out your BBM Connected Application list in BBM you can’t even edit or make any changes to the properties of the foursquare application.

I’ve reached out to foursquare to see if they have a resolution, and it looks like they are still looking into it, however it does look like some users can resolve this issue by performing the following directions:

1. you will need to turn off your phone
2. take the battery out, put the battery back in and restart
3. then you should be able to connect foursquare with bbm successfully

(You can do that by going to BBM then to  Options —> BBM Connected Applications (Edit)  —> Edit foursquare to disconnect BBM)

Looks like this has worked for some BlackBerry Foursquare users but not all of them. Hopefully we will see a fix with this issue, and find out what is actually causing this to happen!
