HT1725 App download interrupted by screen lock?

is there a way to download and app without the screen locking and interrupting it except turning off the screen lock?

Does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option find it ? If not then depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries), see if you can redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your Mac's iTunes (if you have the incomplete track listed in your library then you will need to delete that first, otherwise you won't get the cloud symbol in Purchased for redownloading).
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • App rejected for disabling screen lock (idle timer) in iOS8

    I just had an app rejected because I have a user changeable setting which allows the user to disable screen lock via
    [UIApplication sharedApplication].idleTimerDisabled = YES;
    Apple says I used an undocumented API but it IS indeed documented here: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/reference/UIApplicat ion_Class/index.html#//apple_ref/occ/instp/UIApplication/idleTimerDisabled
    My app graphs the barometric pressure and if you want the graph to run longer than a minute or two, it is important to disable screen lock. The default behavior is screen locking as usual, but there's an option in the settings to disable screen lock and this seems to be what Apple took issue with. I've had academic users request this feature, and I have used it in other apps successfully, however this time Apple rejected my app for using it. Is this normal? Is disabling screen lock via UIApplication really now allowed?

    Just saw this in the doc:
    However, apps that don't have user input except for the accelerometer—games, for instance—can, by setting this property to YES, disable the “idle timer” to avert system sleep.
    (emphasis added)
    So does your app use the accelerometer? Seems weird that that would be the only case where an app could disable the idle timer but they did specifically mention it in the doc, so…
    As a paid developer you can and should take this to the IOS dev site. You might can a more definitive answer.
    good luck
    regards
    <edit>
    Looking at your last post I don;t think the problem is  using an undocumented API,  it is in not using it in the prescribed manner. At least that is how I read it.

  • HT1725 App download error

    Apps on downloading and updating are stopped with waiting message from yesterday.
    iPad is working and
    I can buy app still but can't complete download.
    My credit card is working ok with other account with other device.
    I deleted some heavy apps
    Power off and on, and
    updated iOS version
    With no result.
    What shall I do?

    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region

  • HT1725 App downloading security questions I've never seen

    When downloading apps I type in my password and it asks questions that I haven't seen before like " what was the first car that you owned" I haven't even had a car.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
    Explain that after resetting your password, you are still asked for the answers you have forgotten, before you can gain access to My Apple ID > Manage your account > Password & security, which is where you need to be to change your answers.
    Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.

  • App downloaded by another user locked into my computer

    We're using Casper to distribute applications across the campus, so we often download something in a dedicated machine and do the deployment there. Last month, I made a mistake by downloading iBook Author 1.1 using the other machine, and uploaded the app to the casper distribution points by my own machine.
    The effect is that when I try to update my own iBook Author to 2.0 via App Store, it asks me for the username/password that was used to download the deployment copy, not my own AppleID. I tried downloading iBook Author (both) 1.1 and 2.0 by another machine using my AppleID, and copied them to the machine in question, then deleted both versions from the computer using LaunchPad (which I was told that would erase all traces of the software).
    The problem is that I now only see "update" button in iBook Author even though all iBook Author have been removed from my computer, disregarding which AppleID is logged in, or if no one is logged into App Store. When I click that "update" button, I am asked for the password for the deployment account (i.e. not my own account), the username part is filled in, and greyed out, so I couldn't edit it.
    This problem has been driving me crazy for over a week now. I guess I need a way to remove any cache that the local App Store app created for the updates. Any idea or pointer would be very much appreciated.
    Cheers
    Kenneth

    Narrowed this problem down a bit more, this issue seems to only be with Windows 7 x64.  On x86 domain users are able to access the certificate as long as they have local admin rights.  I need to look into this more as we don't want our users having local admin rights, but at least it shows that a user can access a cert installed by another user.
    With Windows 7 x64, which we will need to work, if the pc is not domain connected local admin users work fine.  Once joined to the domain, even local admins can't use the cert installed by another user.

  • App download screen frozen

    How do you get rid off the white app download screen after you have downloaded an app.  It seems to have frozen and I cannot do anymore searches on the App Store

    If you still have problems after resetting your iPad (I do) or the problem returns, then try this:
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Tap on your Apple ID > Sign Out
    Restart your iPad
    Open the App Store
    When you next initiate a download from the appstore you will be prompted for your apple id.
    You may find that you need to repeat this often, particularly if your iPad is afflicted by the same iOS 7 bug as my iPad 3.
    Having seen this on one of two identical iPad rev 3s running iOS 7 (the only difference being the apple id), I suspect this bug relates to the number of apps associated with each particular apple id. If you don't have many apps then you don't get App Store locks ups. The more apps you have, the worse the problem gets. If you sign out of a problematic apple id then the appstore will work properly, at least until you sign in and the appstore loses focus (i.e. if you switch to another app or you iPad goes into standby). At a guess, I'd say that iOS 7 caches the active apple id's purchase history (including free apps), presumably to make the purchased tab work better than if it were entirely server side. I also suspect that if the cache is incomplete or too large the appstore app stalls, leaving you with a white, unpopulated appstore screen or "Unable to connect".
    I hope this helps.

  • HT4085 how to lock the tauch screen with some password or dots like android to prevent misuse. And also screen lock to prevent interruption while watching movie reading books etc.

    how to lock the tauch screen with some password or dots like android to prevent misuse. And also screen lock to prevent interruption while watching movie reading books etc.

    You can set a passcode to be requied to unlock the iPad via Settings > General > Passcode Lock. In terms of locking the actual screen whilst using an app, then that isn't currently possible, but with iOS 6 in the Autumn there will be a new 'accessibility' feature (from here) which will allow you :
    ... to limit an iOS device to one app by disabling the Home button, as well as restrict touch input on certain areas of the screen

  • Is there an App to Manually, Fully Pin-Lock Screen?

    I always carry my phone in my pocket and the default drag-to-unlock screen isn't cutting it (answering calls in my pocket, unlocking itself). However, I don't want to always have to enter a pin to unlock my phone, only when I'm going to be biking with it in my pocket (which is at least twice a day). What I would like to see is an app that I can put on my taskbar that I could press once to put the phone in a true locked state that requires a password to unlock. I don't want it to be able to answer calls and I don't want it accidentally dialing emergency numbers either (this isn't a problem if the app allows sliding out the keyboard to access emergency numbers without a password). After the password has been entered, the app doesn't lock the screen again until it is manually loaded.
    Unless I'm missing something, the default screen locking options on the Veer (currently running webOS 2.1.2) can not be used in this way. Every time I want to turn the pin lock back on, I have to load the app, scroll down to the locking section, enter a pin to use, and then reenter the pin to use, which of course is way more time-consuming than just hitting a single button that retains your password.
    I know the seemingly obvious solution is to face the screen out in my pocket instead of toward my leg, but I've always put it screen-side facing in to protect the screen since I don't use a case. An ideal solution for me would be an app-based one.
    Thanks to anyone who can help!

  • HT201272 I just bought a new iPad. When I tap on Purchase in the App store I see all my previously purchased apps each with a little box that says open. There is no download cloud. How do I get these apps onto my home screen?

    I just bought a new iPad and the apps I had previously purchased are in the app store under Purchased. They appear with a little box that says "Open". There is no download cloud so I can't click on them to download the apps to my home screen. Is there a way to move these apps to my home screen?

    If they have 'open' next to them then that implies that they are already on your iPad - if you tap on the 'open' button does that open the app ? If it does then they are on your iPad. You've checked all your homescreens and tried a soft-reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Trouble with amazon and screen locking the app with voiceover

    Hey,
    This is really bugging me, when I want to listen to a book in my amazon kindle app. I can't seem to screen lock my ipod touch, so that I can put it in a pocket or something instead of carrying it around, does anyone know how to screen lock or screen curtain the screen, so that it doesn't go weird. Thanks for your time.

    Yes, I agree with this 100% - when listening, I can be doing other things, not looking at the screen. I figure 100% of the people using kindle portable devices are in agreement. My iPhone has a cover, but now I have bought yet a second case to put the first case in so that it covers the screen. But this is certainly not the optimum solution.

  • After updating an app, the app disapears from the screen and is not accesible anymore. In "aankopen" I can not download the game again. There is no little cloud behind it anymore where I can click on. How can I get the app on my tablet again?

    After updating the app blitz brigade, the app disapears from the screen and is not available anymore. It is not possible to download it again because there is no cloud behind it anymore in the app store. But I made in app buys, so I spend a lot of money and now I can not acces the game. Does anybody know how I can get acces again to my game and get my levels back as well?

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else.  How can I get the app to function again?

    I just installed Readdledocs on my ipod, and now when I launch the app, I get a screen which says "downloading message" and the app freezes and won't do anything else.  How can I get the app to function again?
    This happened after I tried to get Readdledocs to open an epub file which I created in Calibre.

    This is a followup to my own posting above.
    Thanks to Dave Sawyer for posting information about re-downloading an app which has been deleted.  I deleted the app from iTunes.  Then, when I synched, iTunes asked me if I wanted the items on my ipod touch copied back into iTunes.  I said yes and then synched.
    Readdledocs is now working again.  It is no longer frozen.  However, I have learned my lesson.  I will download only pdf's from now on.  I don't think it works so well with epub files.  The text reflow feature of Readdledocs is exactly what I need to use for my work documents on my ipod touch.

    CurrentWindow_VisibilityChanged;, but it fires even when app relaunches.
    Please anybody help me to solve this issue.

    Thanks for your early reply. but, those are system triggers used in background task. I want an event that fires when screen gets locked. like this...(a networkstatuschangedevent)

  • IPhone app suspended on screen lock

    If this is the wrong forum for such a question, please let me know!
    I've developed an iPhone app with Flash CS5 that polls certain things every few seconds. It's working as expected, except when the iPhone screen locks (by itself due to inactivity, not when a user presses the lock hardware button on the top of the phone).
    Other applications I've seen are able to continue their polling or activity after the screen is locked, but mine appears to stop completely until the screen is unlocked. It resumes correctly after the screen is unlocked.
    What do I need to do (either in the Actionscript or perhaps a publish setting?) to allow the app to keep polling when the screen is locked?

    And so what happens when you actually connect your phone to your computer via USB like the logo indicates?
