• The reason it doesn't work for anyone and not for me until tonight is the missing declaration in the top of the code.

  var win = Titanium.UI.currentWindow;
  var tabGroup = win.tabGroup;

  If you don't add the var tabGroup nothing will happen and no tab will get selected.

  Happy coding.

• I use:
  tabGroup.activeTab = tab_object

  With tab_object of course being the object name of the specific tab I want to go to.

• This bug was fixed in TI 1.2.1 I think, and I currently use the following to set an active tab based on an option dialog selection (e.index)

  tabGroupLogin.open({
      activeTab:e.index
  });
  

  If for whatever reason this isn't working for you, you could try:

  tabGroupLogin.setActiveTab(e.index);
  

  I hope that works, it most definitely is working for me.

• Providing the tab object as the parameter to setActiveTab() – instead of its index – solved this issue for me.

  tabGroup.setActiveTab(tabGroup.tabs[tabNum]);
  

• tabGroup.activeTab = tab2;

  doesn't quite work for me. Still it goes to the first tab page.
  No errors but just refuse to go to the other tab windows except the first one.

• Nothing of what has been said here works on app.js.
