Check the JS console to see if any errors are produced. Clicking the + should add a new text box, and clicking the - should remove a box. If existing lists are not being populated, I suppose it's possible that the existing data are not stored correctly in the field. It might help to pack and attach a minimal app that reproduces the problem. > It's also a little disturbing that I have to manually update my apps > whenever I upgrade web2py. *This is a disincentive for me to upgrade.

Really, though, is it that much extra work to manually copy a couple of extra files? I think it's not done automatically because technically there does not have to be a fixed name or location for the app files (e.g., you could move or rename web2py.js or combine it with other JS files and minify). Upon upgrade, the only file you really have to worry about is web2py.js (i.e., because that works in conjunction with markup and CSS classes generated by the framework, things might break without the proper version). Old versions of appadmin.py and appadmin.html (and the generic views) should continue to work, though you may be missing new functionality or bug fixes if you don't upgrade those.
