IOS in-app purchase - clarification....

I am a developer of apps for iPhone and iPad.
One of my apps is a companion app to an online personal finance management tool which provides its services and functionality through a website. A section of these features will be made available to the iPhone audience through a native iOS app that I am creating.
The portal allows users to use most of the features for their personal finance management free of charge. It also has a subscription model which provides the user additional features on the website and provides for expansion of some services both on portal and the mobile app.
I am planning to continue using the same subscription model on app, and will redirect users to a payment gateway if they want to subscribe for the personal finance management services through the app.
My question here is do my app falls under in-app purchase (non consumable)? Since my iPhone app is not the only medium where I could subscribe those services. I can open the web portal and subscribe and can login as normal user in my iPhone app.

Try the Developer forums.

IOS In App Purchases restore transactions not working properly with Milkman Games ANE for Adobe AIR

I am experiencing the following problems with Milkman Games in-app-purchases ANE dor Adobe AIR:
PROBLEM 1
0) StoreKit is created and correctly returns all the product IDs via StoreKit.storeKit.loadProductDetails()
1) I purchase item A, the item is correctly purchased
2) I purchase item B, the item is correctly purchased
3) I uninstall and re-install the app
4) I restore transactions via StoreKit.storeKit.restoreTransactions()
5) Only item B is restored ( onPurchaseSuccess() is only triggered once for item B)
EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: I would expect that restoreTransactions() would trigger onPurchaseSuccess() for each of the items previously restored.
PROBLEM 2
6) I close the app
7) When I restart the app, onPurchaseSuccess() for product B is fired without any of the app code calling it.
Is StoreKit attempting to restore transactions by default everytime StoreKit is created? (i.e. StoreKit.create(); )
Testing device: iPad2, iPhone4
Operating System: iOS 7 and iOS 6
Compiling for: AIR 3.8
Type of item purchased: all items tested are non-consumable
Did anyone ever experienced such a behaviour with iOS in-app-purchases in an AIR mobile app? Any ideas or pointer in the right direction are appreciated, thanks!

Shared Objects aren't working for me after the last update Adobe Flash Pro 13.1.0.217 and Air 3.9.0.1380. After exporting to the iPad the apps I get an erro when using Flush command:
Error: Error #2130: Unable to flush SharedObject.
          at Error$/throwError()
          at flash.net::SharedObject/flush()

Any ideas for this?

Air 3.1 iOS In-App Purchase and Exit on Suspend

Hello my dear friends.
During building my app I received a new task.
Early was implemented UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend value, so our app exits when we pressed HOME button. It's ok, each app execution works as new executions.
But when we want to add In-App purchase I lost in solutions. When we press "Buy" in In-App purchase dialog - our app automaticaly closes looking on UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend = true. And when In-App return sussesfully - it must automatically open app and return OK or NOT. But how I can check this if I terminate my app using UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend )))

Forwarding along to the iOS team. You might also want to post this over on the Flash Pro forums.

IOS in App purchases - Flash CS5.5

It seems that apple are now stopping the submission of Lite version apps that would normally be submitted in order to tempt the buyer into getting the full version.
It seems they want developers to use the 'In App Purchase' to unlock functionality of an App which I think is probably a good idea but I'm not sure if any of this is supported using Flash CS5.5/Air for IOS? To be honest I don't even know where to start to impliment such a thing.
Any idea???
cheers

My app just got rejected specifically because of
section 2.9 in Apples App Submission guidelines
2.9: Apps that are “beta”, “demo”, “trial”, or “test” versions will be rejected
Basically no more "LITE."
they want me to use in app purchases instead of saying " You will need to purchase the paid version to get this level"
.. i noticed that many other apps get around this by just putting annoying ads in the FREE version and the full version has no adds.
Hope this helps

IOS in app purchases

Hi.
Im about to start developing a new ios app that will allow users to view videos(Hosted on my server) but i want to make the app charge users for each time they want to view a video.
I've been going over the in app purchases SDK and im not sure about 2 thing:
1. Am i supposed to chose my in app purchases item as consumables or subscriptions?
2. Im not 100% sure if apple allows the kind of service im trying to develop.
Like I said, The application will simply show users a list of videos and in app purchases is supposed to charge them for each video they view.
Thanks
Nimrod

Looking for step-by-step tutorial for in-app purchase with iOS

Hello everyone,
I'm in a bit of an unusual situation here. I'm currently working in a company, the elder programmers of which are in a different project while my humble self is charged with the task to develop for iOS with Flash Pro CS5.5.
Our Creative Director is planning the app to have an in-app purchase feature for some content. The problem is, that I have never dealt with such core programming yet, so I don't yet have an understanding of how to imagine the process of the in-app purchase itself. Sure, I googled and read through the tutorials explaining the certificates and the procedure of getting the information from Apple to be able to publish Apps. But I haven't found a decent tutorial explaining the programming part of an iOS in-app purchase with AS3 yet. It might be because developing with Flash for iOS is currently developing (haha) and so the community is still growing, but surely there are already people who managed to get it all running, one only need to know where to look for them.
So is there anybody out there, who could either explain himself, or point me into the right direction where someone else explains it, so I can learn the full process of integrating an in-app purchase function into an App developed for iOS with Flash and AS3?
I would be incredibly thankful for information of any kind, that would help me.
Thanks in advance!

Unable to make an in-app purchase. Error message saying unable to connect to itunes store. phone is NOT jailbroken

I attempted to make an in-app purchase on the Original Gangstaz app and a message came up saying to contact itune support to complete the transaction. Another window comes up after saying that no connection could be made to the itunes store . I have made numerous in-app purchases, so why has this now happened?
Please note my phone is NOT jailbroken. Any ideas?

Check the settings - perhaps you have enabled restrictions (see: iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)).
If not, see iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store

Unable to make an In-App Purchase following Civilization 5 installation

Hello,
I successfully installed Civ 5 on my MacBook Pro, but when I try to buy the "Gods & Kings" or "Brave New World" as In-App Purchases I get (after giving my iTunes password) the message: Your Purchase Could Not Be Completed
Any ideas how I could solve this? Thanks a lot for your help!

After ios 8 update on ipad mini. None of my apps connect to app store for in app purchases.

In app purchases worked before ios 8 update was installed on ipad mini. Restrictions are turned off. Can login to app store and purchase and download apps. Can't do in app purchases. Anybody else have this problem?

We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work. We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either. The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps. ***** doesn't it.

Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
Thanks

This is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.

They show examples with using ADT command line stuff.

Hi Saumitra Bhava,
Nice examples of Native Extensions. I am having an issue when trying to use a block in Objective-c Something as simple as
- (void) searchForAlbums
    void(^test)(void) = ^{
        NSLog( @"BLOCK CALLED" );
    test();
does not work and FlashBuilder reports the following error.
ld: absolute addressing (perhaps -mdynamic-no-pic) used in -[MobileImagePicker searchForAlbums] from /var/folders/nw/nwjKk-0UFzKXgLSHtcbjxE+++TI/-Tmp-/534267c1-6c13-4a8e-98d6-6c8357d4f355/li buk.co.betadesigns.extension.NativeImagePicker.a(MobileImagePicker.o) not allowed in slidable image. Use '-read_only_relocs suppress' to enable text relocs
Compilation failed while executing : ld64
Have you tried using blocks in an iOS extension?

Ios 6 Ipod touch 5th Gen - In-app Purchases Don't work

Ok i don't know if it is just me but i just recently got my new ipod and i cannot restore any of my in app purchases. such as extra content for jetpack joy ride or angry birds, plants vs zombies and so on.
i got to purshase an in app item as usal i press on buy when the pop up shows and then it just sits there for like 10-20 min and tells me an error "error connecting to itunes store" like ***!
how do i fix this? i have good internet connection i can still update and get the app's them selves just no in in-game content within them....
i have 0 restrictions i have that disabled.
any one else having this issue???

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
Then try restoring on another computer.
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
