Compilations in ios7?

In the new ios7, my albums that are part of a compilation are broken out into their original album when synced to iPhone. The albums are still fine in iTunes and iPad, but on iPhone, all compilation albums are broken out into their respective songs. Sort Album doesn't fix this issue. Several songs that I downloaded years ago (pre-itunes) from various cds and thus have no artwork or metadata information still sync over perfectly as a compilation.
Any ideas here given that this is a non-issue in both iTunes and iPad? Could it be a glitch that will be fixed? Has Apple rewired how they do compilations for iPhone? For now, I've just removed the trouble albums so my music is still nice and pretty!
Thanks community!

Yeah,
I've been having this very same issue! When I go into Artists on iPhone 5c the artists that were part of complilations (mainly created by me) were not showing up. So I went through each song in my library and filled in the 'Album Artist' with the desired artist. This fixed the Artist list.
But now when I go into Albums they are listed as seperate albums. For example, I have a selection of Disney songs (don't judge me) so in the Artist part each of the 14 different movies I have songs from are listed seperatley. Great. But then in the Album list there are 14 seperate Disney albums.
It's the same when I do a search for 'Disney' - all the songs will come up, but it won't recognise it as a full album meaning I have no way of shuffling said songs. I ended up having to create a playlist. I had to this with loads of other collections that I have created.
I remember with my old iPod nano if an Album was listed that was it. All songs / artits on that album were just part of that album. I don't understand why they changed this.
I hope this all makes sense. And I hope it is fixed.
Anyone from Apple care to contribute?

Difference between air3-9_sdk_win_iOS7 and air3-9_sdk_win ?

What exactly is the difference between these because something odd happens on my end.
When I use the air3-9_sdk_win (build 790) to compile an app with the 3 new icon formats, they show up nicely on iOS 7 and everything seems to work fine.
When I use the air3-9_sdk_win_iOS7 (build 1080) to compile an app with the 3 new icon formats, iOS7 seems to ignore the new icons even though it compiles fine. iOS7 uses the older icon in this case. ( I only included 3 icons with a different corner radius, the rest still have the ios6 look )
What exactly is the difference here apart from the build number. Shouldn't it be the build 1080 that works correctly instead of the 790?
Also, another question:
Will I still be able to compile my app for all devices ( iPad 1, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4 ) without any problems? It seems to work but I am having some issues with the iPod Touch 4 and I don't know if it is related...

In regards to the 4th gen ipod touch, it might not be supported by iOS7, check out the official apple page, all the way on the bottom you see a list of supported devices and only the iPod Touch 5th gen is mentioned.

What are the minimum requirements for compiling apps for iOS7?

Hi, guys.
I currently have a computer with XCode 4.6.3 and Mac OS X (v10.7.5).
Is this enough to compile apps for the AppStore for iOS 7?
What are the minimum requirements for compiling these apps? XCode version or both XCode and OS X versions?
Thanks in advance,

OK, actually this site has a better explanation of the prerequisites:

Is there a way to update Flash Professional CS5 / Air to publish for iOS7?

Hi all,
I'm fairly un-knownledgeable about AIR but here's my issue:
I've been developing and prototyping an app in AS3 for some time- publishing to iOS from the iPhone OS Settings in Flash Professional CS5, and testing on my iPhone 4. However, ever since the iOS7 update, when my app runs on my iPhone it simply turns white. Too old a version of AIR, incompatible with iOS7? CS5 has AIR 2.0, and I've gone through steps to try and replace and update it with 3.9, though I can't find any tutorials or info on how to do anything earlier than CS5.5.
Having swapped some files around to get Flash to recognize AIR 3.9, the best I was able to get happen was for Flash to run the app in debug mode but instantly close it.
Any way I can update CS5 to support iOS7 Publishing?
thanks

I've got my .bat file fully written out, but now the error the command-window brings up is:
'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.
The entire contents of the adt file in the AIR 3.9 compiler package is:
@java -jar "%~dp0\..\lib\adt.jar" %*
I have little idea what this means, though I do have the latest version of java. The compiler package I'm using is the one found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/archived-air-sdk-version.html -the Adobe AIR 3.9.1030 SDK & Compiler Windows (218.2 MB).
Further ideas? Thanks so far

Disappointed with IOS7, i had organized my music library as per the Genre and now im unable to hear all the songs of the same genre like in the earlier versions. The options of "all albums" and "all songs" are missing in this version of IOS. Help Please..

It would be nice if you told others the steps you've tried and/or how you used to have your setup.
Anyway have you tried tapping MORE this will then bring you to
the selection-list of Audiobooks, Genres, Compilations & Composers.
Selecting Genres gives you a list of all your music split into genres which was set within the Music downloaded via iTunes or uploaded from CD or which you may have set yourself.
Then you just select the Genre you want:
If certent songs are not correctly gategorised you may need to go into iTunes and reselect via Get-info
>Info>Genre and change it there. That way you should end up with all songs of Jazz or other in 1 place.

I have just updated my software on my iPhone 4S to IOS7.0.4 now I have lost many of my contacts. Can anyone suggest an easy way to reinstate them. (Without having to add them all again as I don't know what I have lost until I need it).

Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

Music app shows unknown artist for compilation albums

I just submitted a bug report to Apple, though I can't believe I am the only person with this issue.
Since iOS7 (I am currently on iOS7.0.4) I have noticed that the music app (along with many many other issues) will no longer display the artist for compilation albums that I have. In iTunes the artist on the compilation is clearly defined but in iOS7 the Music app simply states "unknown artist".
Surely I am not the only one with this issue?

I am very annoyed by this bug too, I have a lot of compilation albums and soundtracks with lots of differents artists, and my library is super organized in iTunes, with the “Album artist” field empty and the “Part of a compilation” checkbox enabled, and it shows the compilations as a “Various Artists” album.
But when I tried to download through iTunes Match in my iPhone 5C some few songs from those albums today, I found out that the music app has this bug that makes almost all of the compilation albums appear within this “UNKNOWN ARTIST” category under the artists tab.
It is very annoying and I hope Apple fixes this, cuz it is driving me crazy.

Adobe AIR 3.9 beta sdk&compiler with ios 7 for windows download broken

Hi,
I couldn't download:
Download AIR 3.9 SDK & Compiler for Windows — with iOS7 support (ZIP, 204 MB)
from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air.html
The download gets to about 56mb or so and then cuts out. All other downloads work fine, just this one stops. I think that maybe the file was not uploaded right.
Cheers,
Grant

Hi,
The links is active and working, looks like some network issue at your end, please try again.

Can i perform SDK 7 Compilation while maintaining SDK6 look and feel for my App

In our organization we test the App using visual specs and our existing visual specs are aligned with SDK 6 look and feel. When i compile my app with SDK 7 the visual display of the App changes completely and is no longer in sync with the visual specs used for testing. As SDK 7 compilation is a mandate for post Feb 1 submission, is it possible to compile the code with SDK 7 while maintaining SDK 6 visual look and feel?

What i am actually trying to do is to maintain the existing SDK6 UI Look and Feel on iOS7. Apple has issued a mandate to have all Apps compiled with SDK7 for App Store submission post Feb1, 2014. If i compile with SDK7, even if i set the deployment target as iOS6, when my app runs on iOS7 it will have the new Apple's iOS7 look and feel. How can i accomplish this?

IOS7 forcing portrait mode

Hi,
I updated to iOS7 on my iPad so tht I could test the functionality of an application that is currently deployed on iOS6. The application is published with the Landscape aspect ratio, Auto orientation unchecked and standard resolution. When I launch the App on iOS7 it wil only display in portrait mode. Does anyone have an explanation/solution for this?
Best regards,
Chris McLaughlin

I had this same issue with two of our apps that were compiled a long time ago under AIR 3.6 and did NOT use Native Extensions (and thus were linked against an older version of the Apple iOS SDK).
Two of our apps supported landscape only, but on iOS7 they displayed in portrait mode, so most of the UI wasn't visible and the apps became unusable under iOS7.
After I rebuilt them under AIR 3.8 & 3.9, they correctly displayed in landscape mode, but with one small caveat that I encountered. The new version of the apps (under Air 3.8) would launch upside down on iOS7, but only when the home button of the device was on the left.
I eventually fixed the issue by adding a Native Extension and then linking that native extension against the Apple iOS5 SDK. When nothing was specified for the Apple iOS SDK, the app would launch upside down. After linking to iOS5 SDK the problem went away.
You can specify the Apple iOS SDK in :
Project->Properties->ActionScript Build Packaging->iOS->NativeExtensions->Apple iOS SDK.

Unresolved std lib methods when packaging mobile app with ANE ios7, mavericks, air sdk 3.9

After converting from ios6.1 / mountain lion to ios 7 / mavericks, my Flash builder mobile actionscript application gets the following unresolved std lib methods when it tries to package the appluication for my ios7 device. These symbols come from code written from within my native extension (ane) that was created and added in the properties configuration.
This packaged and ran fine on ios6.1 / mountain lion...is there some way that I need to link in the standard library in this scenario (that I didn't have to do before)?
Error occurred while packaging the application:

I solved my issue by setting the _JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable. (Note: there are two underscores)
I added the following line to my .bash_profile:
export _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Xms1024m -Xmx4096m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m"
Now everytime a Java program is launched from the command line, I see the following message:
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xms1024m -Xmx4096m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
And my application packaging runs just fine now.
I still have an issue though: this trick solved the problem for packaging the app from the command line, but the _JAVA_OPTIONS are not picked up when packaging from Flash Builder, so it still crashes there.
Note that my Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.ini contains the following options:
-Xms512m
-Xmx1676m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:PermSize=64m
1676m is the highest number I can put before Flash Builder refuses to launch. I'm not sure if these parameters are actually passed to the VM that runs de dx.jar program, or if it's just for the ActionScript compiler. But anyway my app packaging still crashes in Flash Builder.
If someone knows a way to force Flash Builder to pickup the _JAVA_OPTIONS set in the command line, let me know :-)
Thanks
Alex

Getting compile error when i reference flashx module

I am building an ioS/Android app in Flash Builder 4.7.
I am using the TLF classes to do some advanced text handling. so import :
import flashx.textLayout.elements.TextFlow;
import flashx.textLayout.formats.TextLayoutFormat;
however it says "Definition... could not be found" on those two lines, so my program won't compile.
I am including in my library path "tlfRuntime.swc", but that doesn't seem to fix it.
i realize that the TLF classes are not part of Flash, so i gotta include and specify to merge into the code the class, but i swear this code used to work before I updated to SDK 3.9 beta, which I have to do because IOS7 broke all my air apps, so I am rebuilding them now, and can't remember how I got this compile before.
i downloaded the Flex SDK, but this is an AIR app, so not sure what to do with the flex stuff anyway.
I am trying to build a standalone app, so is flex even part of the equation? It sure is confusing to me how Adobe mixes air and flex, why can't they just have a single environment, with different libraries...
any help is appreciated.

hi
you havnt assign event handler for button e.g.
Private Sub Plus_Click() handles Plus.Click
Oper1 = Val(Text1.Text)
operator = "+"
Text1.Text = ""
Equals.Enabled = True
End Sub
Private Sub Minus_Click() handles Minus.Click
Oper1 = Val(Text1.Text)
operator = "-"
Text1.Text = ""
Equals.Enabled = True
End Sub
Private Sub Multiply_Click() handles Multiply.Click
Oper1 = Val(Text1.Text)
operator = "*"
Text1.Text = ""
Equals.Enabled = True
End Sub

Ios7 icons in flash pro cs6?

I'm using flash pro cs6 because I need the IK animation controls. How do I add ios7 icons to the publish settings? I add them manually to the app.xml file, but they get deleted when the ipa compiles.

Hey,
I've solved my problem installing the Flash Pro CC trial version.
I wanted to test if it worked under CC, but it seems to have solved the problem in Flash CS6 too. Everything is back to normal.
I guess we can say this is a solved issue, even if I don't know why. Maybe reinstalling Flash CS6 would have done the trick too. Can't tell.

Ios7 introduced critical bugs, application no longer works.

With Ios7 my application is having two problems:
1) It no longer displays in landscape mode, only portrait. This has happened to my game that is already on the app store and was working fine. The game is now unplayable with stretched graphics. Downloading the game and running on an older ipod that is on iOS6 displays in landscape mode correctly, as well as generating a device test .IPA file (to install on the ios6) with CS5.5 fully updated.
2) You can no longer install .IPA files for device testing on an ios7 device. It will display a grey icon and remain stuck forever in "stalling". The very same .IPA file will install and run correctly on an ios6 device.
Are there fixes to these bugs? Will we have to submitt our games again to the app store?
This is a very critical error. People that paid for my game can no longer play it. This needs to be fixed right now.

Apple most complicated company. They like change own API so anyone who developed app - may meet some issues in new iOS version or it minor update. I don't like Apple for this.
Quick publishing for device testing - I don't suggest to use this option. It's most slowest by performance. But it's have very fast compiling time. Don't forget to use AppStore publish profile for release version and performance benchmarking.
For iOS7 copability you may use latest SDK. At this time it's v4 beta from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/air.html and released SDK just 3.9 and have issues with some features. I use Beta in my all projects and don't have any issues or don't see they.
Maybe iOS7 device don't incluse your UDID in provision?

YouTube search stopped working in ios7

YouTube app in ios7 no longer displays results. Have updated to 7.0.3 and still no success. YouTube plays videos from categories but I can no longer search for anything at all.

Do you have a window specifically for CHM files? Beware your window characteristics are taken from your default single source layout, so if you have that set as WebHelp Pro and use it when compiling a CHM you are likely to get odd results. You'll need to change the default SSL to MS HTML Help, create the new window and (if you want) reset the default SSL back to WebHelp Pro.
