Check-in points for using Bestbuy app

Hello there,
I visited one of your stores today and logged into my app. Normally, after a few minutes, I get the option on the app to check-in. Once I do that, I end up with 10 points. Lately, that has not happened, and today, even though I logged in correctly, there was no option at all on the app to check-in. So, just wondering if we can no longer check-in on the app, or if there was some sort of glitch with the app. Thanks forf any information you can offer.

Hi crvboy,
We will generally make announcements when changes to the physical My Best Buy™ program are made; however, a change/update to the Best Buy mobile app may not be announced. The recent changes/update to the mobile app will no longer allow us to support the check-in feature. If you enjoyed the check-in feature or have other ideas for the app, then I would encourage you to post them to the IdeaX section of the forum.
Thank you for connecting with us on the forum!

How do I find help for using the app 'Passcode

I enter information int the app Passcode, but it disappears. I must be missing the save button, but cannot find it.
No, I mean the app "passcode"' which stores sensitive information, such as credit cards, bank info , etc.

Do you mean Passcode - or do you really mean Passbook ?

Beginner ? on resizing vector for uses outside Illustrator

Slowly weaning myself off of MS PP for graphics. One reason is so I can resize images for use in apps like Word. I don't think I want to resize within Word so knowing how to do it in IL is the direction I'm headed (albeit as a beginner).
The example is an image made up of mostly point type, one area type, and a few rounded rectangles. I have it layed out on a 11x8.5 page (although it actually uses about 6x8.5.
My thinking is to select all, grab a corner, hold down the shift key, and drag. My first question is: am I getting the advantage of vector (i.e. quality resize)?
Second, is there a way to control the final size as a percentage (for example) of the original selected area? This question is because I may, in some cases, have a target size in mind. For example, in the Word case, if I save the IL file as a picture and insert it into the document, Word already does some resizing (to fit the page dimensions (I assume). In this case, the result is an image 23% of the original size (according to Word). That's still a bit too big for my purposes. I'd prefer 15% of the original.
Is there some tutorial on how to do things like using the vector capabilities in IL to resize to a final object size. I realize I may need to crop along the way. I'm interested in the process and thinking behind it.
Thanks
Tom

Tom,
Honestly, I haven't read this whole thread in careful detail, but I really think the best advice would be for you to first, fully describe the kind of content you are trying to deliver and what you want the recipients to be able to do with it; second, map out a workflow for your intended purposes; and only then worry about the how-to specifics and the collection of software tools.
Here's what I read:
You have been using PowerPoint as your generic drawing tool. That, and your descriptions so far, suggest relatively simple graphics (lines, boxes, elbows, text, simple polygons). In short, it makes me wonder if you even really need a program like Illustrator at all.
You want your final deliverables to be editable by your recipients. That alone goes a long way toward ruling out the native formats of Adobe applications, their expense, and their learning curves. It's a common practice in both business and mom & pop general use to treat native Office files as if they are some kind of "universal editable exchange format," just because they are so ubiquitious. You can't make that kind of assumption with graphics-production apps (like Adobe's). You can easily over-complicate things by deciding up-front that you need to jump into that arena. Are you an author, or do you really want to embark on a designer career? Look, if you're not designing for mass commercial reproduction, you may be entirely off-base thinking you need to involve Adobe apps at all.
You are now straining to find a workflow which will "upgrade" your vector graphics (with a program like Illustrator) while still retaining the full editability of your deliverables in a format that mom & pop America knows how to deal with.
Here are some basic things you may not be considering from a practicality standpoint:
Programs like InDesign, Illustrator, et all (regardless of their "me, too" re-purposing in recent years for web-centric work) were created for commercial reproduction (i.e. printing in a PostScript environment). It is completely impractical to try to use their native files as any kind of "universal" exchange format for use by a general public--especially if you want your deliverables to be editable by recipients not equipped for or skilled in their use.
PDF effectively makes the final content of documents created in graphics programs deliverable as is. Its basic purpose is to make documents created in pretty much anything readable by those without the authoring programs, while maintaining fidelity to the appearance of the final document. It's not really meant for overal editing like in the native program that created the document. If you want PDF to be your target final deliverable product, then fine; you can produce more sophisticated PDFs by doing your authoring work in graphics apps. But you'll be sacrificing the kind of native editability you are accustomed to with your current Office-based workflow.
Office programs are from another world. They don't talk PostScript. They don't worry about things like halftones and color separation and all kinds of other print-world esoterica. They're not as detail-sophisticated as dedicated drawing programs in things like finely-controlled Bezier path drawing. They don't natively support the same paths and constructs contained in Illustrator artwork.
Adobe's own "recommended" format for incorporating Illustrator artwork into Office applications is not vector at all; it's PNG, a raster format. That's what the Save For Office feature in Illustrator is all about. That fact alone should tell you alot about what you are getting into when you want to use AI to routinely populate Office documents with vector artwork from Illustrator.
Office apps do, however, exist in the real workaday world, and do therefore provide general-purpose means by which to incorporate text, raster, and vector objects for constructing graphics.
You have mentioned concern for vector scaleablilty several times. You seem to be unaware that even Office programs do in fact have their own graphics model for vector graphics. On Windows, that's what formats like Windows Metafile (WMF) and Enhanced Metafile (EMF) are all about. Those are the kinds of objects that are created by the various drawing tools that reside in not just PowerPoint, but also in Word, Excel, Access, et all.
Don't think that you can't create professional-looking results in the Office applications you are already familiar with. "Professional" results is more a matter of design skill and artistic discernment than software. (Believe me, far more amateurish work is created in Illustrator than "professional" work.) It sounds to me (especially since you have been using only the drawing tools in PPT) like you may not have really explored the graphics capability that already exists in the Office applications you are using, and which you really want to use as your fully-editable deliverables anyway.
In helping you devise a suitable workflow, I would ask you questions like these:
Describe (and show examples) of the most "sophisticated' kinds of graphics that you envision needing to routinely include in your deliverables.
Describe the level of editability that you want your recipients to be able to perform.
Describe the functional content of your deliverables. For example, do you want your deliverables to contain live, editable spreadsheets that your users can use as "calculators" or "what if" graphs? Do you understand that while you can build some forms-based interactivity in PDFs, doing so is a relatively painstaking and esoteric process, whereas in Office applications, its pretty much a copy/paste affair?
Have you fully explored the drawing feature sets in Office applications? Do you really understand their capabilities and limitations?

I kept trying to log in my apple ID to use FaceTime app but it always shows me that an error encountered while logging in your ID try it later,but I am using the same ID on my iPad as well as on my iPhone they are working perfectly fine tell me solution ?

I kept trying to log in my apple ID to use FaceTime app but it doesnt allow me to log in for using facetime. Whereas I have been using the same ID as I am using here on my Macbook pro but it doesnt go through especially for using facetime app.
Please tell me how to solve this issue.
Thanks..!

Eric,
None of this has worked.
My Apple ID and password work with everything else. I have a good Internet connection. No Firewall active from my IMac.
LIke I said, I haven't installed anything recently and FaceTime ver. 1.0.5 on OS X 10.6.8 was working fine prior to yesterday.
I restarted my IMac to run Mavericks and FaceTime 3.0 under OS X 10.9.4 is working and I was able to login and use FaceTime on Mavericks with no problem.
For some unknown reason FaceTime on IOS and on my Mac were asking me to login into FaceTime when I haven't had to do this for quite sometime.
Older FaceTime 1.0.5 all of a sudden has decided to be a problem with login on my IMac under Snow Leopard.
The only thing left I am going to try is the two-step Apple ID verification process where I can use a app specific password, but Apple makes you wait three days before completing the two-step verification.
If this doesn't work, then I do not know what will solve this issue and now I made my Apple ID login process more complicated than I really wanted it to be.
I purposely stayed away from using the two-step ID verification login.

I have always paid for apps with a credit card and now need to use an app store card but I can't get past the point where it keeps wanting my credit card updated. And can't used the app card number. Any advice???

I have always paid for apps with a credit card and now need to use an app store card but I can't get past the point where it keeps wanting my credit card updated. And can't used the app card number. Any advice???

I do NOT like using my credit card if I don't have to, and I went out of my way to go buy an Apple gift card, which I successfully redeemed into my Apple account. However, when I use the Apple "Cards" app, it will not let me use anything other than my credit card. I tried purchasing a card, hopefulling it would come out of my Apple store balance, but no such luck -- it came out of my credit card.
Apple is becoming more like Microsoft every day.

Upgraded new iPad to iOS 5 after successfully using the machine for two weeks. The apps I downloaded are still here, checked for updates, all okay. However, when I try to use iBooks app or even USA Today, icon shakes, settles down then nothing. Help.

Upgraded new iPad to iOS 5 after successfully using the machine for two weeks. The apps I downloaded are still here, checked for updates, all okay. However, when I try to use iBooks app or even USA Today, icon shakes, settles down then nothing else happens. Several tries, settings appear correct. Suggestions? Safari operates correctly, music icon matches (not from iTunes, simply music on my MacPro and iPod). Is Cloud the issue, perhaps? But everything worked before the upgrade. Using my home network. Hope this info suffices. Appreciate any guidance.

Problem solved. Saw the solution in a more recent post. Downloaded a free app, then all my other apps started to work again.

I downloaded a free Merriam-Webster Dictionary app for use on my iphone 5. I thought I followed the download process properly, but cannot see that the app is launched on my phone. I have checked my phone for 'updates' and the app is listed among the ones I have purchased. I clicked on it and it began installing, however, it still has not launched. I get a message screen to sign in with my Apple ID, which I tried, and I get the message that I have purchased this app and it will download. When I try to sign in, I get the message that it can't connect to the itunes store and to retry. I've done that several times without any luck...not sure where else to look for the 'working' app. I did try re-booting the phone...even did a 'hard reset' to no avail...help?

Building an AppCloud App for use within your organization only.

I am re-posting this from, Register your App because, it was a good point this should have been a separate discussion.

I am trying to get more details on how to Build/Register "Private" AppCloud Apps and confirm at design time that we can deploy our in-house AppCloud Apps on several of our Eloqua instances without publishing them.
My assumption is that one would setup the App under the Provider section for each of the Eloqua instances so that each Eloqua Instance can see and install our our in-house private app and use it without publishing. I worry about this method because it give the impression the AppCloud App is in development or testing.
Or
I was hoping there was some way to officially register our app so we are using a production workflow but our app is not published or listed anywhere?
T.J. Fields Jul 14, 2014 6:06 PM (in response to Scott Kent)
Hi Scott,
The best practice here would be for you to:
1. Register as a Provider in a development instance of Eloqua.
2. Build out your app and Register it, along with your Service(s) under that Provider.
3. Whitelist any Eloqua client installs that you wish to allow to use your App. Do this by clicking the Publish to Another Site button.
4. Give the App install URL (found at the bottom of the App Details page under Catalog) to any of those clients that you whitelisted to use your app.
This way, only those clients that you've specified will be able to install and use your App, and it's not listed anywhere. You could also click the Publish to App Cloud button, which simply whitelists every install. The App will never actually be listed anywhere, as there is not yet a mechanism in the framework to do this. The only way to find and install your App is by using that install URL, so you'd have to give it out.
If you are a client that is building an App for use within your organization, you could also use your company's Eloqua install to register your provider, but as a development partner, your developer instance is intended to be used to register and manage your services.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, scott.kent ! I'm sure many will benefit from your great post!

Free for a Day apps - Legal to use in Configurator?

Today, several paid apps we have our eyes on to purchase for use on our classroom iPads through the VPP program are available free for the day, so I downloaded them and installed them in Apple Configurator, where they indeed show up as being free in the list of apps and can be installed on iDevices without problems.
We are concerned that somehow this is not legal to do, but I cannot find any verbiage indicating this illegality. I'm assuming that if the app is free, it is truly free, no matter how and where we use it, as we use many free apps in Configurator.
Using the same logic, if I paid for 10 copies of ComicLife through VPP yesterday, but today ComicLife is free, I could not ask for a refund.
Does anybody have any definitive information?

Hi Derek,
Apple Configurator checks to see if the app is free at the moment you import the app into Apple Configurator. If a free app is imported and Apple Configurator finds that it is no longer free, you will be required to import VPP app codes for it. If the app is still free as you import it then it stays free forever on that particular computer. Each computer does this check independently.
Hope this answers your question!

the blow is the content of the review team email：
We found that your app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently. This behavior is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
We noticed your app declares support for location in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location.
It would be appropriate to add features that require persistent use of real-time location updates while the app is in the background or remove the "location" setting from the UIBackgroundModes key. If your application does not require persistent, real-time location updates, we recommend using the significant-change location service or the region monitoring location service.
For more information on these options, please see the "Starting the Significant-Change Location Service" and "Monitoring Shape-Based Regions" sections in the Location Awareness Programming Guide.
If you choose to add features that use the Location Background Mode, please include the following battery use disclaimer in your Application Description:
"Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."
Additionally, at your earliest opportunity, please review the following question/s and provide as detailed information as you can in response. The more information you can provide upfront, the sooner we can complete your review.
We are unable to access the app in use in "http://www.wayding.com/waydingweb/article/12/139". Please provide us a valid demo video to show your app in use.
For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. When the DTS engineer follows up with you, please be ready to provide:
- complete details of your rejection issue(s)
- screenshots
- steps to reproduce the issue(s)
- symbolicated crash logs - if your issue results in a crash log
If you have difficulty reproducing a reported issue, please try testing the workflow as described in <https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/qa/qa1764/>Technical Q&A QA1764: How to reproduce a crash or bug that only App Review or users are seeing.

App store and itunes store are stuck in Japanese store. Says: Account not in Store. Your account is not valid for use in the Japanese store. You must switch to the Philippines store before purchasing.

My app store and itunes store are stuck in Japanese store. I already moved to the Philippines for about a year ago and my stores still won't change its location.
I already changed the region/country in my apple id. I tried to sign out and sign in back to my account. Tried it in app store, in itunes store, in settings app, in itunes in my laptop, in the apple website. It shows that my apple id is already set to Philippines, no matter where I sign in my account.
The problem is when I open my app store (or itunes store) in my iphone, it appears that it is in the Philippines store; however, when I sign in my account (and I tried to sign in everywhere), I cannot download any app from the Philippine store. When I try to download an app, it always says "Account not in this store. Your account is not valid for use in the Japanese store. You must switch to the Philippines store before purchasing." I have read everywhere and most of the answers say that it should automatically direct me to the correct store. It doesn't happen to me, apparently.
I have the same problem in both my iPhones. Both are iPhone 3GS and in version 5.1.1. I don't want to upgrade to iOS6 so please don't tell me to do so. Thanks!

My son did purchase some token, In-App (almost $130), and I have to mention that is too easy for a 5 years old boy to buy In-App, after you Download a New App (SKYLANDERS CLOUD PATROL, v1.6.0); for him, because the Account will remain open for couple of minutes.
I know he used $10 of it, or so?!?!
BUT, I want to know how can get the rest of it, back?
I didn't let him play anymore after I've got that he bought lots of token, Or extra points.

Can anyone answer this question?

Depending on exactly what you want to do, there are a couple of ways of handling this. You may want to access teh user guide for some ideas: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
In particular, check the sections on Customizing iPad and Settings > Restrictions.

As of 3/30 when using the App for Facebook, when I log off of Facebook, it keeps me permanently logged into Facebook. If I use Safari to log into Facebook, I have no problem logging off. Is there a problem with the Facebook App??

As of 3/30/13, when logging off of Facebook using the Facebook App, it will not log me out. It is now permanently keeping me logged in. No problem logging off of Facebook when I do not use the App. Is there anyone that can tell me why this is happening and what I need to do to Logout of Facebook. I like using the App for Facebook but I also want to be able to log off, I do not like to stay logged in. Is there something different with the latest Apple software I downloaded a couple of weeks ago, IOS 6.1.3?

it also could be something different, if you try google hangounts. change password and log out it still recieves notifications. its how apples handles the "channel" notification system for apps that recieve notifications or do backroung sync, and im sure at some point that security hole will be a hijack point. i think its called XO auth. and is why it can maintain session even after an apperant logout
if you go to the app and it shows you have logged out but are still recieving notifications then that is evidence of the bug.
also look and find the option for "keep me logged in" i remember in the past that would allow a autologin after logout. also if the app does NOT save the logout status correctly in its "memory" the above refereced system will auto login you with the XO app authentication.
if there really is no keep me logged in option. then what crh24 said, they designed it delibertly to keep you logged in. though i never remember a problem on my ios 6,. are you on ios 7, bunny hop?
