2.23 Apps must follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines or they will be rejected

My Multi Issue v14 App (24124) was just rejected by Apple. Apparently because storage of the data (folios?) was not iCloud compatible.
Is this related to v14? Would building a v15 app resolve the issue?
or is there some other problem?
Please advise...

We found that your app does not follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
In particular, we found magazine downloads are not cached appropriately.
The iOS Data Store Guidelines specify:
"1. Only documents and other data that is user-generated, or that cannot otherwise be recreated by your application, should be stored in the /Documents directory and will be automatically backed up by iCloud.
2. Data that can be downloaded again or regenerated should be stored in the /Library/Caches directory. Examples of files you should put in the Caches directory include database cache files and downloadable content, such as that used by magazine, newspaper, and map applications.
3. Data that is used only temporarily should be stored in the /tmp directory. Although these files are not backed up to iCloud, remember to delete those files when you are done with them so that they do not continue to consume space on the user’s device."
For example, only content that the user creates using your app, e.g., documents, new files, edits, etc., may be stored in the/Documents directory - and backed up by iCloud. Other content that the user may use within the app cannot be stored in this directory; such content, e.g., preference files, database files, plists, etc., must be stored in the /Library/Caches directory.
Temporary files used by your app should only be stored in the /tmp directory; please remember to delete the files stored in this location when the user exits the app.
It would be appropriate to revise your app so that you store data as specified in the iOS Data Storage Guidelines.
For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. Please be sure to include any symbolicated crash logs, screenshots, or steps to reproduce the issues when you submit your request. For information on how to symbolicate and read a crash log, please see Tech Note TN2151 Understanding and Analyzing iPhone OS Application Crash Reports.
To appeal this review, please submit a request to the App Review Board.

  • Rejected...We found that your app does not follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines,

    Where and how do I fix this?
    We found that your app does not follow the iOS Data Storage Guidelines, which is required per the App Store Review Guidelines.
    In particular, we found that on launch and/or content download, your app stores 3.54MB. To check how much data your app is storing:
    - Install and launch your app
    - Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage
    - If necessary, tap "Show all apps"
    - Check your app's storage
    The iOS Data Storage Guidelines indicate that only content that the user creates using your app, e.g., documents, new files, edits, etc., should be backed up by iCloud.
    Temporary files used by your app should only be stored in the /tmp directory; please remember to delete the files stored in this location when the user exits the app.
    Data that can be recreated but must persist for proper functioning of your app - or because customers expect it to be available for offline use - should be marked with the "do not back up" attribute. For NSURL objects, add the NSURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey attribute to prevent the corresponding file from being backed up. For CFURLRef objects, use the corresponding kCFURLIsExcludedFromBackupKey attribute.

    You're submitting a Newsstand app, right? This error is still under investigation, but the current workaround is create SD (1024x768/768x1024) cover images for your HD (2048x1536) folio renditions and try again.

  • ICloud Data Storage Guidelines

    We just got this message from Apple. I'm not a developer by trade, I'm a designer, but I don't recall seeing anywhere in the CS 5.5 App development process that allowed for the level of specificity they are referring to below. Is this something that needs to be handled by Adobe or is there some place in the Apple Developer Portal that these changes can be made?
    Dear Developer,
    In recent testing it appears that your app, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, stores a fair amount of data in its Documents folder.
    Since iCloud backups are performed daily over Wi-Fi for each user's iOS device, it's important to ensure the best possible user experience by minimizing the amount of data being stored by your app.
    In addition to purchased music, apps, books, Camera roll, and device settings, everything in your app's home directory, including its Documents folder, is backed up to iCloud.
    Data stored in the application bundle itself, the caches directory, and the temp directory is not backed up to iCloud. Your app should store data in these locations according to the iCloud Data Storage Guidelines on <http://developer.apple.com/icloud/documentation/data-storage/>.
    Please review these guidelines, make any required changes to your app, and submit an update to the App Store.
    If you're not the technical contact for your app, please make sure this email gets to your development team.
    If you have any questions concerning this information, please let me know.
    Thanks for developing for iOS!

    When we release the set of tools for Newsstand (viewer builder and a VB backend that will build Newstand enabled apps), the code base you build against for Newstand enabled viewers will put the storage of folios in an Apple approved location. Currently we are in a day for day waiting period until Apple releases the GM of the iOS 5 SDK.  Once they release the SDK we will incorporate it into our system, test to insure there were no changes between the iOS SDK betas and GM and release a set of tools as soon as we are confident that viewers built on this code base will pass Apple approval.
    Unfortunately I can't provide a timetable because I have no idea when the GM SDK will be released. All I can say is that we are anxiously awaiting the GM drop and are ready to move on it, the minute it is released. We understand the importance of Newsstand to our customers.
    Non newstand Viewers built this version of viewer builder against the V15 DPS release will also work for iOS 4 devices and will move the storage of folios into an Apple approved location.

  • So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

    So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

    If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
    If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

  • Using Itunes, I copied all my apps from my Ipod touch to a new Iphone 4. Problem is all the apps on the Iphone are starting up like a new install. I would think my "password" app and "lose it" app would have the past data transferred to the Iphone.

  • I have an old iPhone 3 gs. with ios 3.1.3. how can i update it to at least an ios 5 because it will not let me get games on the app store because the ios is so low.

    Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; there isn't a Software Update option in General on iOS versions prior to 5.0. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware, which is iOS 6.1.6 for an iPhone 3GS.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

  • Treo 755p The free data storage space on the device is low. Some data could not be saved

    After having the Treo 755p device for only a week, I am receiving a message "The free data storage space on the device is low. Some data could not be saved."  I have over 55 mb of free space according to the device info page. I cannot find anything about this in the knowledge library, can anyone offer help?
    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)
    Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

    My problems are similar to Lauren, but backwards.  For months now I have had problems with my Treo 755 reseting randomly.  Sometimes during calls, sometimes while typing, sometimes while just sitting in the holster.   As many as a dozen a day and then not at all for 2 weeks, no rhyme nor reason.  This Free Space error though is brand new to me today and quite strange.   The error is showing up when I bring my phone out of "sleep".  I press the end button to sleep the phone and everything is fine.  When I press it again to wake the phone up the error is sitting behind the keylock waiting for me.
    Obviously I have done nothing yet for this new memory error, but I've tried everything for the reseting.  Deleting software, Soft and hard resets, software updates, everything I and Sprint support can think of.  With this new Free space error now I am going to just take it to a service center and demand a new phone.  I think there is some kind of hardware error as I have done nothing in the programming.  No new programs, no deleted programs, no changed settings.
    I loved my Treo 650 and never had any problems with it.  I am getting very disappointed in Palm now though with these ridiculous problems.
