B2b deployment of app must go through App Store?
We’ve got a client for which we’ve developed a reasonably sophisticated interactive calculation tool in Flash/AS3. The client is now asking if we can reformat the tool for use on mobile devices. If we wait for the upcoming CS5 my understanding is that we can publish a native app for the iPhone but it will have to be distributed through Apple’s App store. Have I got this right? This is a specialized tool and would only be useful to my client’s distributors (about 5000 end users), it seems silly to have to distribute this type of app through a public delivery system geared more toward retail sales.
Currently we’re recommending to our client that we re-write the entire app in php and use simple HTML for the front end. This would be a major re-write and would force us to maintain two separate versions of the tool because of a kiosk version that must run standalone without server support. Does anyone have a better suggestion?
I don't think there is a way to determine the source of deployment.
Suggestion would be to turn off features that you would not like to be present when deployed through store and test that as a beta app to make sure it is working as expected and then submit that app to the store.
More information about beta testing an app can be found in the following link.

HT1349 Upgrade retail Mac Box Set apps in Yosemite through App store.
I did a clean install of Yosemite and am now reinstalling iWork and iLife apps from my retail Mac Box Set. It installs but when I try to upgrade the software I get the message that it does not qualify to upgrade with my User ID. Is this because I didn't originally register it correctly? I tried doing the registration through the iWork apps but still get the same message. Are these earlier apps useless now and must be repurchased through the App Store?
Perform the following, stopping with the first one which works:
1. Open the Mac App Store's Purchases tab. If you're prompted to accept them into your Apple ID, do so.
2. Move them out of the Applications folder(they may need to be put into the Trash temporarily), and then see if you can download them for free from their individual product pages. If you're asked to buy them, see #3.
3. Click here, contact Apple, and wait for a response.
4. Buy them.

Parental Controls(Enable Restrictions) and installing apps through ITunes store (PC)
Through Parental control(Restrictions), the iTunes Store and Installing apps can be disabled on iPhone. Now is this feature can prevent apps getting installed if Apps are purchased through iTunes Store in PC and synced with iTunes? Is it possible to disable syncing with iTunes?
So you are saying that, even if there is Restrictions, with iTunes and Installing apps disabled, applications can be purchased through iTunes in PC and can be synced with iPhone and get the applications installed. Is that a correcy assumption?

Multiple instances of Mail.app must be possible
I've seen many questions regarding the possibility of running multiple instances of Mail.app as separate processes. There seems to be much good reason to be able to do so, i.e. separating work and private mail, and very little bad reason to do so (maybe some problems when doing upgrades or backups, but I'm not yet sure of this). It also seems that it should not be so hard to do.
So far, using some web acquired wisdom, I've done the following:
1. Duplicate mail.app:
sudo ditto Mail.app WorkMail.app
2. Rename the executable:
mv /Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail /Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/MacOS/WorkMail
3. Use Property List Editor to set the following values in/Applications/WorkMail.app/Contents/Info.plist (Apple-S to Save changes!):
Root/CFBundleExecutable=WorkMail
Root/CFBundleIdentifier=com.apple.workmail
Root/CFBundleName=WorkMail
Root/NSServices/0/NSPortName=WorkMail
Root/NSServices/1/NSPortName=WorkMail
Root/NSServices/2/NSPortName=WorkMail
Root/UTExportedTypeDeclarations/0/UTTypeIdentifier=com.apple.workmail.emlx
Root/UTExportedTypeDeclarations/1/UTTypeIdentifier=com.apple.workmail.emlx.part
4. Create the following directories:
mkdir ~/Library/WorkMail Downloads
mkdir ~/Library/WorkMail
4. Launch the 'new' application 'WorkMail'.
5. Create mail accounts using the application's 'wizard'.
Here is where the first problem is encountered. The new account directories and files are still created at ~/Library/Mail. Navigating to Mail->Preferences->Accounts->[account_name]->Advanced seems to offer the option to change the mail store account directory, but nothing can actually be changed here. So...
6. Quit WorkMail.
7. Move newly created account(s) directories (where [newaccountdirectory] is a directory named with the format: [mail_type]-[user]@[domain].[tld]@[pop].[domain].[tld]]) to the correct location:
sudo mv ~/Library/Mail/[newaccountdirectory] ~/Library/WorkMail/
8. Use Property List Editor to set the following values in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.workmail.plist (Apple-S to Save changes!):
/Root/ActiveViewers/0/AttachedMailboxListExpandedItems/[0to_#_ofaccounts]/=~/Library/WorkMail/Mailboxes/...
/Root/CurrentTransferMailboxPath=~/Library/WorkMail/Mailboxes/...
/Root/MailAccounts/[0to_#_of_accounts]/AccountPath=~/Library/WorkMail/[new_accountdirectory]
/Root/MailDownloadsPath=~/Library/WorkMail Downloads
9. Relaunch WorkMail.
Everything at this point seems to work okay, **BUT** when I launch Mail while WorkMail is launched, I find that I cannot navigate into any mail folders within Mail. I receive an error message indicating that a necessary directory is locked. It seems that the locking mechanism used by the application may be hard-coded to lock ~/Library/Mail, and both instances of the application continue to take this action when launched, making it impossible for both to work harmoniously at the same time. I will conduct more testing and experimentation, but I am not yet capable of editing the application itself. If anyone can take us this last step, I'm sure there are many who would also like to be able to take advantage of the potential functionality.
Thanks for any input!
Steven StromerHopefully, there is someone with a programming background who
can take me and other who have posted similar questions through
the final mile on this...
Well, I do have a programming background, and I must say that it amazes me that someone might want to do what you did to “solve” a problem that IMO doesn’t exist.
What exactly is it that you expect to accomplish by running multiple instances of Mail, and for which neither (1) organizing your mail using multiple mail accounts, custom mailboxes, rules, and/or smart mailboxes, nor (2) setting up separate user accounts, are acceptable solutions? I just don’t get it.
I've seen many questions regarding the possibility of running multiple
instances of Mail.app as separate processes.
I haven’t. Could you please provide a link for such a question, preferably one asked by someone who knew how Mail and Mac OS X work, i.e. a link for a case where there really was such a need?
There seems to be much good reason to be able to do so
I know of no such reasons, neither good nor bad.
i.e. separating work and private mail
I don’t see how that’s a reason to want to run multiple instances of Mail. Could you please elaborate?
Maybe if you tell us what exactly is the problem that you’re trying to solve, instead of focusing on a convoluted “solution” that doesn’t work, we could propose a solution that does...
and very little bad reason to do so
Well, if the fact that it’s so convoluted and doesn’t even work aren’t bad enough reasons, I don’t know what it is...
It also seems that it should not be so hard to do.
I wonder what makes you think so. It does certainly seem hard to me, so hard that I don’t even think it can be done without breaking something, if at all... -
I can no longer scroll through app selections in Genius iPad
I can no longer scroll through app selections in Genius on my iPad in the App Store. I see the first row and half of the second row and cannot scroll. This is a new condition. Landscape or portrait is the same.
Just adding my voice as well.
Had this issue for awhile now. Believe it must have surfaced after last iOS update.
Quite annoying since Genius was a good way to quick browse for new app suggestions. -
Best practice to deploy some secret credentials in AIR app
Hi,
Can someone suggest the best practice way to deploy some
secret credentials in an AIR app please?
For example, network connection settings or passwords ?
In my particular case (and since this is only for testing)
I'd like to deploy a password in an AIR app. So is there any way to
effectively deploy an encrypted store with the app ? (hope that
makes sense!)
Tks,
AlexI think the best practice is not to do it. You can't deploy
an encrypted local
store file to another computer. You could encrypt the
information some other
way, but that just moves the problem. If you have a server,
you could have the
app connect to the server to get the sensitive information
and put it into the
ELS (ideally through HTTPS). -
I am facing this problem while start debugging the Provider-Hosted app through VS2013. I want to deploy the app with same version. So please let me know any solution
to remove the app instance from office365 online, so that I can deploy the same app with same version on the specified "Developer Site".
Note: If I change the version in AppManifesst.xml file then this problem/error gets resolved. But I want to deploy with the same version as
per my business requirement.
The actual error renders while I click to "Start" button of the Visual Studio 2013 to deploy the provider-hosted app, for the sake
to deploying it on say "ABC" site collection (i.e. developer site). I work on office365 online. Therefore, request you to please provide the solution for SharePoint online office 365. The occurrences is:
"Error occurred in deployment step 'Install app for SharePoint': The provided App differs from another App with the
same version and product ID."
Please assist me anyone. It will be so kind of you.....

IBooks app - must download again after iOS 5 update
This was so frustrating I thought it deserved another posting.
I bought two new books through iBooks store and they appeared to be corrupted.
The failure was very confusing and I thought it was content related.
I deleted the books from the shelf and redownloaded the content from Apple.
Same thing.
I finally reluctantly deleted the iBooks App.. which also deleted all associated data.
Then went to App Store and downloaded the iBooks App again.
Then opened one of the books, everything was fine.
The nature of the error messages that were being reported led me to believe there was a DRM encode/decode error occurring repeatedly between the iBooks App and the book it was trying to render.
Mind you
I had updated to iOS 5 several days ago and nothing odd appeared to happen.
So something must have happened unnoticed or somehow the new iOS5 operating system could no longer work with the iBooks App I had on my iPad2.
This might help a lot of other people having other problems with the iBook App on the iPad2.
Hence why I'm posting this separate from my original question and answer.I have Ping turned off in iTunes, thus will not appear on my phone. There is no separate app, Ping gets transferred to your phone if turned on in iTunes on your computer.

Document type declaration for root element type "web-app" must end with ' '
I am attempting to deploy an application (.war file) using the Sun Access Manager Agent installed, (Reference http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-3201/6n5eht3k4?a=view -near the bottom) and I get this error:

Now, when I remove the parts that http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-3201/6n5eht3k4?a=view said to add, it deploys just like it used to deploy- just fine with no errors. However, I add that code and it breaks.
Note: The code was a straight copy/paste, so if there is any error in the code, it is because it's written incorrectly on the Sun doc website.
Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks!Well, if that was pasted on one line, it would be:

Automatic payment to vender through APP
Hi Experts,
I am facing problem in APP. I created APP and document get posted to vendor a/c. But when I see in FBL1n it is showing open item both invoice and payment doucment(ZP). I tried it to clear through auto. clearing functionality. but it didn't. what could be the reason? and how to clear open item?
Aprreciate ur prompt response.
Thanks in advanceCheck the incoming balance, I think the reason why you can not do clearing and the accounts still open is because you don't have enough balance to cover all the payment.
Hope it helps.

Aftr converting to Mavericks could not able to update/download applications through spp store and have to force quit app store as the mouse does not click the X button
Do you get any error messages?
Try resetting the App Store.
Reset Learned from Old Toad
Try deleting the com.apple.appstore.plist.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.
