2-step Verification in 3rd-party app

I was considering developing certain apps for iOS and Android that would include the need to sign in to a user's Outlook.com account. Looking at the API, I could see that regular sign-in is supported using OAuth 2.0, but I could not find a statement verifying
whether or not I could also somehow enable signing in with two-step verification (assuming that the user has that feature enabled in Outlook.com). Does anyone know conclusively whether it can be done in a 3rd party app?

Only OAuth is supported for the Live Connect API/SDK.  With OAuth, the user still needs to provide consent for your app to access certain information on their account (which they can remove at any time).  I'm not sure if 2-step verification is
supported for 3rd party apps.

    I have an iPhone 5.  Which 3rd party apps work with Apple Health that sync with the daily steps data repository???

    Iran uses GSM, so the iPhone 5 will work.  It is already unlocked.  Just put local Iranian SIM in phone. 

  • Structured approach to debugging performance bottlenecks for 3rd Party apps

    Hi All,
    I am facing a situation which I believe most App Support personnel and DBAs in IT organizations do, but I havent found a structured approach to solve the problem. I am hoping this thread can help filter and pull together the varied chunks of information out there in one place.
    Here is the situation. I am avoiding making it too specific, as the idea is to identify a good approach that is repeatable in other scenarios.
    We are in the process of implementing a solution using a third party application (SAP's BPC), which is sitting on an Oracle database. The application implementation team has some control on to use the application to design the solution, but no direct access to the underlying queries that the app generates. We are starting to find that as the underlying database usage size is increasing (from a couple of million to tens of mllions of records), the performance of certain operations is becoming very unpredictable. Sometimes an operation would go through, relatively fast while at other times it would get stuck for over an hour and then time-out.
    In such situations it is a classic battle between the Oracle DBAs and the App implementation team to try and push the ball in each other's court to try and identify and "fix" the problem.
    What in your opinion would be a structured approach between the two teams to help solve the problem? For each step of the approach, please also try and see if you can point to links which further dive into specifics of executing that step.
    For example, one approach might be to ...
    1. DBA team to find a way to identify specific Querios/DBOperations that are taking too long. (add references here)
    2. App team to collaborate with the App manufacturer's support organization to see what design changes or parameters could alter the nature of queries being generated or affect the size of the underlying tables. (too specific for each 3rd party app)
    3. After exhausing (2), DBA team to analyze the remaining culprit queries and find ways to obtain better performance without changing the query or the size of the database tables via indexes/DB parameters/etc.. (add references here)
    4. After exhausing (3), DBA/Unix admin team to identify which specific hardware bottlenecks are being faced (CPUs/storage/memory) to see if hardware changes can help obtain better performance.
    Thoughts?

    In general your approach is correct.
    However I'd put priorities different way.
    1. DBA team to find a way to identify specific Querios/DBOperations that are taking too long. (add references here)
    2. DBA team to analyze the culprit queries and find ways to obtain better performance without changing the query or the size of the database tables via indexes/DB parameters/etc.. (add references here)
    With collaboration with the App manufacturer's support if required.
    Indexes are transparent to application logic. They do not affect results data. Only performance.
    Note that indexes should be regular b-tree indexes, not unique or bitmap.
    Edited by: user11181920 on Nov 7, 2012 3:20 PM
    Changes of queries can be allowed here, with using Oracle query substitution techniques (Plan Stability, Plan Management...).
    3. After exhausing (2), DBA/Unix admin team to identify which specific hardware bottlenecks are being faced (CPUs/storage/memory) to see if hardware changes can help obtain better performance.
    Not only because today to beef up HW is less expensive way to improve performance comparing to SW optimization, especially redesign of App; but mainly, in case with SAP, the poor performance that can be improved by HW tells that the sizing of the system has been done incorrectly.
    SAP has a methodology to size your HW depending on volume of data, number of users and quantity of transactions.
    Sizing should be re-done if your data grown beyond the volume that had been used for initial SAP sizing.
    4. After exhausting (3), App team to collaborate with the App manufacturer's support organization to see what design changes or parameters could alter the nature of queries being generated or affect the size of the underlying tables. (too specific for each 3rd party app)

  • Resolving how 3rd party apps show free space?

    I've recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and am now just learning about "Local Backups" and how they work.  This seems like a pretty neat feature and great extra data protection.  However, I now have trouble with 3rd party apps that monitor and notify about free space.  (ie iStat Menus, TechTool Pro, Disk Inventory X).  As I said, I think this new feature is great for added data protection, but it seems it has a huge flaw if it is going to make all other applications show incorrect Used/Free space.  In fact, since the Local Backup seems to use as much space as it can and will only free the space as needed, it seems every application or tool will show that the disk is always on the verge of being completely full.  Has anyone found ways around this?  Or are there any good apps that monitor and/or display free space (like iStat Menus) that can account for, or rather disregard, the space being used by Local Backup in the same way that the Finder window seems to?  I hope that in future OS updates, Apple does something about this like making the space used by Local Backup hidden in some way.

    Sorry, you didn't get my point:
    'Unintentional' means accidentally. I always wonder how people can delete files 'accidentally', requiring trashing them and then, in a second step, empty the trash.
    I do not empty my trash before having backed up, as I was pointing out. If I did, it would not be 'unintentionally'. It would be intentionally. And I should get fired. Unless I can have the backup drive there within 40 minutes.
    My point is, YOU're heading to work in the morning, not having backed up for the past 2 weeks to the external disk since your backup is always with you on your 4 months old Mac, still under warranty and unlikely to break anyway. Crossing the street from the parking lot, you need to jump to avoid some crazy driver. You make it, only your laptop slips from under your arm, drops onto the tar, and worse, before you can grab it, that bus is rolling over it. The HDD/SSD/whatever is history, and so is your work and some other important coroprate docs worth 2 weeks. Will you continue to walk into the office to resign, or will you ask the bus driver to run you over as well, please?
    My view is unchanged.
    Can we stop this here, please? My data is safe, and yours I've written off a while ago.

  • Every single 3rd party App crashes

    Hello,
    I'm running a 8gb EDGE 2.0.1 iphone. Every single 3rd party app crashes all of a sudden. I tried restore. all native apple apps load, but even when I just synce 1 3rd party app to the iphone (so all native iphone apps and 1 3rd party) that always crashes to iphone home screen.
    I need to fix this because I need to use 3rd party apps like zenbe (which was working perfectly for me a week ago)

    ok i had this same problem i called apple the guy i got new exactly what was happening and game me a work around. follow these steps exactly. this is a mac work around only dont know about windows.
    1 make sure your phone is not connected to your computer.
    2 delete every app directly from iphone by holding a app and then clicking the x
    3 go to settings general reset and choose reset all settings
    4 now on your computer open itunes on the menu bar go to store and deauthorize your computer
    5 quit itunes
    6 reopen itunes and reauthorize the computer then exit itunes
    7 open isync go to preferences and select reset sync history and exit isync
    8 open itunes and connect your iphone. it may freeze itunes for 2-10 minutes but dont exit just
    wait it will eventually recognize your iphone.
    9 after itunes recognizes your iphone go to the music tab and select a small playlist to sync then got to the app tab and choose sync selected apps and if anything is selected deselect them.
    10 if you have remote app select it if not download it for free and select it
    11 then select two other apps and click apply
    12 it will start to sync. it will say removing apps let it do this. depending on how many apps you have it could take a long time (mine took more than an hour)
    13 if you get error 0xE800002E after you are done just repeat steps 1-8 it wont take long this time
    14 if you dont get the error check to see if your remote works if it does check the other apps if they dont work repeat steps 1-8 if they do you are done just restart the iphone to make sure the still work
    15 if you got the 0xE800002E error and have repeated 1-8 sync remote and two other apps and it should work if it does not try again it worked for me the first time though.
    it is a long process but be patient and all will work out.
    that is it until apple fixes this stupid issue which should never have gotten passed testing.
    hope this helps
    if u need help or inform me of how it went u can email me at [email protected]

  • Airplay on Apple TV not working after upgrading to iOS 8 (3rd Party Apps)

    Hi
    I hope someone can help me with this issue.
    After upgrading the iPhone 5 and iPad 2 to iOS 8.1, as well as upgrading the Apple TV to the latest version, I now end up with ** some ** videos as well as photos that can't be played over AirPlay on 3rd Party Apps. (Note: I have no issues with 'mirroring' from the iPad to the AppleTV though.)
    1.   It can play .mp4 and .mov files;
    2.   It could NOT play .mkv or .avi files - there's audio but NO video
    3.   It can play the photos and videos from Apple's own apps (i.e. 'Videos' and 'Photos') however (i.e. with both audio and video)
    4.   It could NOT display any photos from 3rd Party Apps
    5.   This is happening to more than one 3rd Party Apps (i.e. no display of photos; and no video though there's audio)
    Fyi, I've emailed to the respective Developers, but after reading some of the threads in this forum, I suspect that the root cause could be with iOS 8 (as well as the latest software update to AppleTV) as I didn't have this problem at all under iOS 7.
    Anybody has any solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Niket,

  • How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

    1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
    Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
    I need this immediately.
    Anybody can help??
    I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
    2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
    3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

    I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
    open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
    Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
    Hope this helps?

  • ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immediately

    after connecting to itunes after a few months now ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immidiately when i try to open them

    First try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  If that doesn't help, try downloading a new App free app from the app store to see if that helps.

  • How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

    First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it.  All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this?  I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
    Thanks!

    Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
    But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

  • ITunes Match and 3rd Party Apps - iPad/iPhone

    With the myriad of apps out there that integrate with iTunes, why is it that nearly none of them offer support for iTunes Match? (And, a seemingly cool one that claims to offer support -- "BeatBlaster" -- http://www.beatblaster.com/ -- that has all the features I'm looking for, isn't available in the App Store in the US).  I'm really surprised at the lack of information on this topic on the web... A Google search for it only pulls up articles that are 2-3 years old.   The best information I could find was that the API toolset made available to developers is either really limited, or it's just not available at all... and that's in an article from 2011.  Are you telling me that Apple is STILL -- 3+ years later -- limiting access to developer tools for iTunes Match integration (or just has never created any)?  I understand that I'm asking about something that could be considered "outside" of Apple (3rd Party apps), but I'm just really looking for someone that might be in the know on this stuff... And, I'm hoping that that person can clue the rest of us in on "what's up".
    Bottom line, I'm looking for a clock radio app that supports iTunes Match... I've got our Master Bedroom and Bath rigged up with in-ceiling speakers, attached to a bluetooth receiver, with a wall-mounted iPad serving as the "jukebox".  When my dang iPad doesn't drop the WiFi connection, it's pretty slick. I'd just like to have a single app that a) offers a large, well-visible clock, b) allows me to browse my iTunes Match library of songs and play them as I'd like, and c) have a "play my iTunes music as an alarm" option.  I know... directly d/l-ing songs to the iPad is an option, but it defeats the whole purpose of iTunes Match, which I subscribe to because my music library is WAY too big to fit on the iPad (or my iPhone).
    Anyway, any information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    You'll have to ask the software makers this question. It is up to the 3rd party vendors, not Apple, to provide the features you are asking for.

  • I recently purchased a 4S. I now have 2 files in my iCloud both with my name. One from my 3gs and one from my 4S. The problem is the data history of all my games and 3rd party apps did not transfer over to my 4S. Is there a way to merge the two in icloud?

    I backed up my 3gs to the iCloud and when I synced my 4S, it did not transfer my game histories or my 3rd party app histories. When I look at my iCloud storage, it shows both phones under the same name. Is there a way to merge them together in iCloud? I tried adding the account to my 4S but since they are both named the same, it says I already have that account added! Help!!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
    You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage......

  • How do i print sms messages from my iphone without a 3rd party app?

    How do I print a complete SMS message from my iphone without using a 3rd party app?

    If you have an AirPrint compatible printer, or you have a print app, then you could take a screenshot of each page of the message and then print them. Otherwise, there is no native solution to print SMS messages on the iPhone.

  • 3rd party apps from someone other then Apple

    Does anyone now if you can get 3rd party apps without jail braking and without using Apples application store. I found a website that offers apps that I really want and was very disappointed to see none of the in the Apps store and dont know why nobody made them or offered them there. For $24.99 I can get all these apps that I was really looking forward to seeing in the apps store but werent:
    NES System : Nintendo with all the games
    Customization : Were I can custom every aspect of the I-Phone from I-cons to backgrounds
    Screen shot : A app where I can take a picture of anything that my I-Phone is viewing at that time like from a game or a website ETC.
    Video Recorder : I cant believe there was no video recorder in the apples web app release it is just something every phone should have
    MMS : Picture messaging, I mean I dont know how many times I recieve a picture message and have to wait till I get home to go on my computer to go to a website just to see them. How long it takes also with normal broadband just to see a simple picture.........This is a must have app
    Ringtone: Now all you have to do is select a song from your music library and put it to you contacts that easy no cutting or editing it down to size, no extra programs to make them with and no money to spend to make them
    Also much more that I dont feel like describing like:
    Instant Messenger
    YouTube Downloader
    Books
    VNC
    <post edited by host>

    Wow don't try to send a MMS to someones cell phone from the e-mail option this was a nightmare. I tried it to see if it would work and I received a message that the attempt didn't succeed so it kept trying and trying automatically. Then I get a phone call from the person I sent it to telling me it work but for me to quit sending it. I said I only sent it once then he said I have like 15 already so I check out my phone and it is really warm I looked at it and the battery went from fully full to a little less then half empty. So I am like what the heck so I go into my e-mail account and I see there is an e-mail demon meaning there was an attempt to send a e-mail but it didn't succeed. Normally when this happens it will make another try just to make sure it wasn't a service error well apparently my cell phone is continuing to retry to send the message so I have the phone trying my e-mail account trying while the person who the message is being sent to is receiving everyone........So I had to delete every message being sent on my e-mail account, I had to delete my E-mail account on my phone, and I had to shut it off for 30 minutes to see if this works it not I don't know what to do and my nightmare continues as well for the person who's phone keeps blowing up with the MMS message and I am wasting all of his text on his plan.......
    Thanks for the bad advice

  • 3rd party app alerts no longer show up in the notification center

    I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS7 last week and ever since alerts for 3rd party apps (like gmail and others) haven't been showing up in the notification center.  I've checked my settings for both the notification center and for my individual apps to make sure they weren't reset, made sure my apps were up to date (not all of them have had updates since iOS7 was released but some definitely have), tried toggling them on and off and rebooting, but so far nothing has helped.  The banner alerts work, but nothing pops up in the notifications.  Has anyone else experienced this or have any other ideas how to fix it?
    I've generally been pretty pleased with the new version of iOS, but I'm hating everything about the changes made to the notification center.  Even if I do get my notifications to work again, I hate that we're forced to have that "Today" tab even if you switch the summaries off!  I like the unified page from iOS6 much better.

    Hi cyn999!
    I have an article that can help address this question:
    iOS: Understanding notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3576
    As you can see in the screenshot, the weather does show up in the notification center, but it is in text form instead of icon form in iOS 7. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • Updated Carrier Settings - All 3rd party apps now crash on startup.

    Updated the new Carrier Settings today. Now all 3rd party apps on the iPhone crash on startup. Am I the only one experiencing this?
    Rebooted several times
    Running 3.1 (7C144)
    Thanks!

    Just wanted to post in the event someone else had the same issue. I did a restore and reset. All third party apps went away (poof).
    I had to manually re-install my apps from the app-store. Thank goodness iTunes tracks your previous purchases.
