Apple rejection for failure to purchase subscription

One of our iPad apps built using DPS Viewer Builder (Version 2.1.130) has been rejected for failing to purchase a subscription successfully. I've submitted a sprint 20 and sprint 21 viewer, and both have apparently exhibited this bug and been subsequently rejected. See Apple's reason (identical for r20 and r21 viewers):
Jun 29, 2012 01:30 PM. From Apple.
2.2
We found that your app exhibited one or more bugs, when reviewed on iPad (3rd Gen) running iOS 5.1.1, on both Wi-Fi and cellular networks, which is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
When the user attempts to purchase a subscription, an activity indicator is displayed indefinitely and the subscription is not purchased. If the user quits the app and restarts, a blank screen is displayed in the storefront and the app freezes.
So far I have not been able to reproduce this bug. On my developer and adhoc builds, subscriptions purchase successfully each time. Obviously storefront issue (we have a custom html store) is ours to debug but I need to reproduce this subscription error in order to do so.
Has anyone else seen this issue? If so, do you have a more specific and reliable reproduction sequence to get it to happen?

Do you have renditions in place for your folio? If so, please make sure the folio title, productID, and publication date are exactly the same. For the publication date, you need to set it manually to ensure that the timestamp is precisely the same as your other rendition files.
If that isn't your case, please follow up with me at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> with your productID and I'll do some research.
Thanks.

I'm about to purchase Lion. My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone. We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases. Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID?

I'm about to purchase Lion. My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone. We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases. Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID or do we have to use different Apple IDs for the purchase? If we use the different Apple IDs can we still use the same ID for all of our purchases.

And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install. Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion.

Wrong apple ID for family sharing purchases

I use one email address for iCloud and one for iTunes purchases.
I have signed up to family sharing using my iTunes account, but when a family member requests approval for an app purchase, it defaults to my iCloud email address (the address is greyed out) and I cannot then approve the purchase.
Any solutions gratefully received.

It should be Noted that anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID.

I already have a apple ID for my iphone5. And recently I have purchased a new mac book pro.

I already have a apple ID for my iphone5. And recently I have purchased a new mac book pro.
My questions are that
1: Should I use a existing apple ID or create a new one?
2: If using my existing apple ID, then will there be any issue at later stages?
3: How will I be able to share the data between my existing iphone5 & new mac book?
4: Or will it be better to create a new apple ID for my newly purchase mac book pro?
Please suggest?

Use the existing Apple ID, so you can sync your data between your phone and your Mac.
No.
iCloud does the job for you. Both your iPhone and your Mac should have asked you to enable it during their first setup. See -> http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
You do not have to create a new Apple ID for your MacBook Pro. If you do that, you may have problems syncing your purchases.

New apple id for 13 year - keep progress on one free app?

My son recently hit 13. Up until now he's been using my apple ID for everything (facetime, purchases) but I figure now he can have one, it's best to give him his own apple ID ASAP as he's not going to want to use mine when he's moved away from home, and I won't want him to either. Also he quite often gets given iTunes cards and it's best if they get allocated to his own account.
I understand that with family sharing we can share previous purchases so after I've set up his new ID I will invite him to family sharing.
My question is this: He's had an iPad for a couple of years. I manage it mostly via my iMac. He's not bothered about most of the apps on there, but there is one particular app (Clash of Clans) he would like to keep all his progress on. I believe it was / is a free app. By setting up his own Apple ID, is he going to lose his progress on the game? What will happen when I back up his iPad to iTunes on my iMac, will I still be able to do that when he's signed in to his iPad with his new Apple ID? I can't quite get my head around it and would appreciate some advise.
Thanks,
Kate

Sync it to your iPad with iTunes. First check the app store to be sure it is compatible with an iPad (not all iPhone apps are). If it is, first confirm that the app is in your iTunes library by opening iTunes clicking on the apps folder, and checking if the app is there. If it isn't, add it to your library by connecting your phone to iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Once it's in your library, connect your iPad, click on the name of your iPad in iTunes, go to the Apps tab of your iTunes sync settings, locate the app in question and click "Install" next to the app, then click on Apply at the bottom to sync your iPad.

My app got rejected as PayPal has been used as payment method. in-app purchase method was suggested by apple. My app charges yearly subscription from users. In-App purchase does not support it. How do I proceed. Please advise.

I had submitted my app to apple for approval. My app got rejected as
PayPal has been used as payment method. in-app purchase method was
suggested by apple. My app charges yearly subscription from users. In-App
purchase does not support this type of payment process ( or, I could not
get to it).
Please allow me to use paypal or guide me on how can I charge yearly

You're not talking to anybody from Apple here.
We're all just users like you.
But I can tell you without reservation that PayPal cannot be used in an iOS app.

Message from App review after rebuild and re-submit,
We found that your app has an associated free subscription, however, it does not include a mechanism for the user to sign up for the free subscription.
It is required to revise the app to include the mechanism to allow user to sign up for the free subscription.
BTW, this app approved with free subscription and online, what we do is update the app to version R27.

I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family. I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases. I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.

I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family. I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases. I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.
I have been reasearching how to do this on the internet, but I haven't found an easy explanation yet. My family is going crazy over each others imessages being sent to others in the family and not being able to use FaceTime because of conflicting email addresses. I have read that if each person gets their own iCloud account, this would work. However, I need to know what to do after I set everyone up with their own iCloud account. Do I make that the default email address to be contacted or can they still use their hotmail email addresses. Any help- with easy explanation- would be much appreciated!!

We do this in my family now. We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores). Each iDevice has this configured.
Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud. That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup. That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice. You can just restore from it.
So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response. What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures. Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures. 1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.

HT204053 What's the best way to set up a family of devices in order to use one apple id for purchases on itunes and the app store?

we are trying to face time between devices, but it won't work whn multiple devices are tied to one apple id.
How do you designate one id to pay for purchases and one so that we can facetime from device to device?

The ID used for purchasing is in Settings>Store. This ID does not need to be the same one used for other services such as FaceTime, iMessage, etc. (in fact you're far better off if you use separate Apple IDs for these other services). To change the ID used for iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Receive At, tap the ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a separate (and unique) ID. You can similarly change the ID used for FaceTime in Settings>FaceTime. To sycn data with iCloud such as calendars, contacts, etc., without merging your data across devices, set up different iCloud account with different Apple IDs for each device. You can go to Settings>iCloud and turn off syncing for your data, and when prompted, choose to keep the data on the device. Then scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Then set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID for each device and turn data syncing back on in Settings>iCloud.

Welcome to the Apple community.
So long as you are logged into the iTunes Store, using the correct ID and password (settings >store), then you will always have access to your apps, books, music, TV shows etc etc bought via the iTunes Store on that account.

I have one apple ID for my MAC and another used for both my iPhone and IPad. Purchases from iTunes don't appear on either my iPhone or iPad only only the MAC. How do I sync the two IDs?

I have one Apple ID for my MAC and iTunes account and another that is used for both my iTunes and iPad. When I purchased music from iTunes using the Mac ID, the music isn't available on my iTunes or iPad. Neither lets me change my ID so how do I fix this issue so I can play the music on all three?

Hello chlanli
You would need to use one Apple ID for purchases in order to get them across all of your devices and computer. If you want you can use one Apple ID for purchases and the other one to sync personal data. The article below will explain further.

Currently have ipod touch 4 and am getting an iphone 5c. Want to transfer data to new phone. Currently all our family devices on one apple ID for purchases and it is the same for icloud. I want to create a new one for icloud for this iphone. What do I do?

Currently have ipod touch 4 and am getting iphone 5c this weekend. Currently our family has several apple devices and they have the same apple ID for itunes and it is the same ID that we use for icloud. I want to set up a separate icloud ID so that it is only on my new device. I still want to keep the same apple ID for purchases. Can I do this and better yet when do I do this...before the purchase, after the purchase and backing up of data. Where do I go to create a new one?

Figured it out. Thanks.

HT5622 I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy

I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy. I plan to add a few more iphones to the family very soon. What is your recommendation to manage all of our devices (iphones, itouch, apple tv) for my family? Can I continue to function with one apple ID or is it time to take the leep into attempting to manage multi-apple ID's?

There's a few ways of managing multiple devices on a single computer (and keeping seperate content on each). The following document is worth checking through:

How do I create an Apple ID for my kids which are linked to my Apple ID so that they can make purchases without me having to tell them my user/password?

Welcome to the community.
Unfortunately, you cannot do that. The first hurdle that you are going to face, is that mobile devices, by virtue of being prone to loss, will always require that a password is entered before a purchase of any kind is made.
If your concern about the password, is related to your privacy in regard to your mail, contacts and calendar information rather than their acces to make purchases, then the best solution would be for you to use another Apple ID for iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
