AddThis & AJAX loading doesn't change title and URL

I'm currently working on a website where the content is loaded via AJAX, every piece of content has some AddThis sharing buttons.

So after the content is loaded and added into a div container, I reload the AddThis script in order to make it work again:

var script = 'http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#pubid=myid&domready=1';
if(window.addthis) window.addthis = null;
$.getScript( script );

But when I share the page, I noticed that the title and url don't change, I did change the title manually:

var title = $(response).find('h2').text();
window.document.title = title;
window.history.pushState({path: href}, title, href);

Why won't AddThis use this new title and URL? Also for the Facebook sharing it's using the image from the first content. (probably because of the wrong url)

You could try this too (I found a bug in IE8, becauses AddThis uses for..in:

for(var i = 0; i < addthis.links.length; i++){
    addthis.links[i].share.url = "new url";
    addthis.links[i].share.title = "new title";
}

Apparently I forgot to call addthis.update(), this fixed my problem.

AddThis buttons wont update to include fragment (#Hash Tag)
