Business names, incorporating, and apple development account; etc.

Hello All,
The apple development account I have is the "as an individual" type but I am planning to start a corporation in the near future (still distributing in the same way on the app store). When that happens is there anyway to change my existing account from "as an individual" to "as a corporation" and change my relevant information instead of paying for another dev account? Also, if I am currently registered to sell as a business (but not a corporation yet) how do I have my name appear as the business name on the apps that I sell? Thank you very much in advance.

Having just been through this recently, converting from an individual account to an LLC, I can say that it's an easy process to change though it may take some time. Call the ADC and explain what is happening. They will begin migrating your account from an individual to a business account. You will need to fill out your information again and accept the license agreements again. It took a couple of weeks to get everything done.

Multiple "publisher" names on one apple developer account?

Hi, I would like to purchase whatever apple account you need to submit apps to the app store. However, some will be games that I will be working on with some other people, and some will be utilities developed by myself. I want to be able to submit these apps under different publishers, is this is simple as changing the company name when I make the project in xcode? Sorry, I have yet to submit anything to the app store so I don't really know how this works

If the other people want their names on their apps in the store, they should have their own accounts.
The company name in Xcode for each project has nothing to do with the finished app in the store.

Can I change company name in Apple Developer account?

Hi,
My company is planning to split and change its name before we submit our app to the app store. Will it be possible to register the new name to our existing Apple Developer account? We don't want the old name to show in the app store.
Thanks!

Sure. You will just have to submit all of the necessary paperwork and wait.

What happens if I install IOS 8 on my iPhone and then my Apple developer account expires.

If I upgrade to IOS 8 beta and my developer account expires will I still get over the air updates or would my iPhone stop working?

You would have a number of problems although your Phone would still work, bugs and all, until the software was released in the fall and you couldn't switch over in the developers site.
Either renew your developer account or stay away from the beta.

I have an apple developer account to make a new app, but I need to give access to the designer without sharing my payment info or allowing him to have access to my icloud, apps or itunes account. There is some way to have another password?

The designer is usually someone who just handles the user interface portion of the code. The developer would handle core functionality. I assumed you were the developer and the designer was the designer. You are the client and your "designer" is the developer.
Ideally, you should create a business account so that you can add someone to your team. That is the way it is supposed to work. Otherwise, you will have to ask for the final source code so that you can build and submit the app yourself. You should always have the source code regardless. You should always perform the submission under your own account too. Otherwise, it is the developer's app, not yours.
Sharing accounts is against the Apple Developer agreement anyway. The App Store Gold Rush is over. Now it is mostly zombie apps and competing fraudsters. You don't want to give someone access to your iTunes account. You really don't want to give someone access to your bank account either.
The best solution would be to convert your account to a business account. You may be able to have the developer submit the app and then transfer it to you.

How do I change the first name associated with a developer account?

How do I change the name on my developer account. I now have my discussion ID tied in with developer account, and I would like to change the name associated with my developer account. There is a field to change my first name on the discussion board, but there seems to be no option to change the first or last name associated with a developer account.

I ran into the same problem and was glad to find this post.
I started to register as a iOS developer but my daughters name shows up in the personal info field and can not be changed. When I go to the "manage my ID" page it has my name and the correct info. How do I fix this for my Developer ID registration?

I downloaded OS X Lion Server using my apple developer account? Will it stay after my enrolment is over?

The title says it all. I downloaded OS X Lion Server using my apple developer account? Will it stay after my 1 year enrolment is over? I basicaly signed in and redeemed a code to download OS X Lion Server. It is now in my purchased list in the Mac App Store. But I got it by redeeming a code that I got through being an Apple Mac Developer. I wanted to know if I decided not to pay $99 next year to renew my enrolment, will I still be able to keep OS X Lion Server in my purchased list in the Mac App Store. When I click on More Apps by Apple in the Mac App Store, it takes me to the page with all their apps. OS X Lion Server says it is installed. But I want to know if it will still be in the purchased menu after the enrolment is finished and not renewed.

I am a new Mac Developer. I checked the page you gave me and I think it's more to do with topics about programming and using the developer tools and pre-release software. I don't think my question relates to any of the topics there. OS X Lion Server has already been released and is available for the public. I was planning on buying it. But before I did that I wanted to become a developer. So I enrolled in the Mac Developer program and I went to download OS X Mountain Lion Developer Preview 2 when I realized that I could also download the already released OS X Lion Server which was available for $50. So instead of buying it from the Mac App Store, I just got the redemption code from the Mac Developer Center and downloaded it free of charge (I did pay the $99 to be a Mac Developer though). Now it has been added to the purchased list in the Mac App Store and when I click the More Apps by Apple button in the Mac App Store, it takes me to the page with all Apple apps. And now on that page it says that OS X Lion Server has been installed. I am just wandering if once my enrollment is over next year April, and I decide not to renew my enrolment, will I still be able to have the OS X Lion Server in my list of purchased apps and still be able to re-download it? Sorry if this is too long, but I am trying to be as clear as possible. Sometimes when I ask questions, I wait a whole day and go back there, only to find out that they didn't understand what I meant. Thank you .

Single edition and enterprise developer account

Hello,
I would like to know if it s possible to create a single edition issue and make it available only on the account of my company, on the enterprise developer acount.
Or i could make it available for just people i selected?
Thanks for your help.

You can create a private distribution folio via the enterprise level account.
To do this you'll need the a DPS Enterprise license, an Enterprise level Apple Developer account, a secured server to host the private app on (Apple requires it to be behind username and password security).
This will allow you to provide a location outside the App Store for employees to go to download the folio. As I understand it, you can't just put up a single edition app like you would on the app store, but you'll produce the content viewer and then publishing your folio through that content viewer. You can make it feel like a single edition by triggering automatic download of the folio that will live in the private content viewer.

Unable to activate apple developer account

I tried to activate my recently purchased developer account but I got this message:
We are unable to activate your Apple Developer Program membership.
I tried calling developer support but they are closed. I thought this problem may be beacuse I am under the age of 18 so is there any way to transfer it to another account?

You wait until Monday, call Apple and politely ask for a refund.

I have created and Apple ID account but cannot sign in on my phone but can on my computer

I have created an apple ID account and able to log in on computer but not on my iphone.
My wife also has an iphone and account in her name so does it only recognize the one phone number on the billing account?
Do I need to create another account for my cell number?

on your phone go to settings - app store - apple id - log out - then log in with new apple id.

After deleting iCloud and Apple ID accounts from the device, the new user sees the e-mail addresses, whom I wrote earlier letters

After removal of the iCloud account on iPad and exit all my Apple ID accounts on the device iPad 4, which is used now by another person with other account when he write a new e-mail message the other person sees my contact address. What you need to do to other people could not see my contacts? At the same time they are not in the phonebook

To fix, first remove your secondary e-mail address that was @mac.com via appleid.apple.com. This should get rid of that email address (but not the ID).
Then delete your iCloud account from your iPhone and reactivate it using @me.com as your Apple ID.
The Apple ID will remain as @mac.com but when you access iCloud Account Information, the Advanced part says "Mail : @me.com".
Hope this helps.
