IPad Packager - iOS Deployment Target problem

Hello,
I've been working on an iPad app (using CS5), got everything in place, i.e. apple dev account, all my details cleared to sell apps, got my development app working great on my iPad.
BUT...
When I'm trying to upload the finished version using Application Loader I get the following message:
This bundle is invalid. When supporting iPad only, the iOS Deployment Target must be 3.2.
There is no way to set the deployment target in the flash CS5 settings, I've looked on various forums but can't find any answers to this. Can't believe I've got to this last step and I'm hit with this. Are adobe bringing any fixes out for this?
Any Ideas please???
cheers

Awesome -- I wish I could mark as "Answered" for this post -- Kevkong1971 I really really really appreciate being shown that post.  Of course you can search and search but if you don't find the right one.....  Well thanks..
I thought I would distill the answer and post again for those who need it.  Here is the proceedure I followed (gleaned entirely from the work of others) And yes, it does work.  I have both of my "iPad" only apps now up for Apple's review.
Here you go:
this is a copy and paste of something I popped up on my personal weblog---------
The following post addresses the “you must target a minimum of IOS 3.2” when you try to publish an app you’ve written with Adobe Tools and targeted “iPad Only”.
So thanks to the guys on the Adobe Forums, there are a lot of posts so I hope to distill it down for anyone who needs and also for myself (for future apps!)
Step 1: Copy your .IPA file to a MAC
Step 2: Rename file to .zip
Step 3: Extract contents of .zip
Step 4: Pull out the “yourApplication.app” file from the “Payload” folder you extracted
Step 5: Right click on .app file and select “show package contents”
Step 6: Edit the info.plist file
Step 7: Change the “MinimumOSVersion” entry to 3.2
Step 8: Close and Save
Step 9: Download THIS .PY Python script you will need to make your .xcent file authentic
Step10: write your .xcent file using pico or your favorite pure-text editor.  Just create this file from scratch and name it yourApplication.xcent As Follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>application-identifier</key>
    <string>10DIGITCODE.YOUR.DOMAINAND.APPLICATIONNAMEHERE</string>
    <key>get-task-allow</key>
    <true/>
</dict>
</plist>
step 11: assuming the .py file you just downloaded and .xcent file you just created above are in the same directory execute the following in the terminal:
python gen_entitlements.py 10DIGITCODE.COM.YOURDOMAINAND.APPNAMEHERE yourAppName.xcent
OK So far so good.  Now you have a valid .xcent file, and you have fixed your .plist.  Now you have to put them together and resign with your credentials.  To do this execute the following in your terminal:
/usr/bin/codesign -f -s "iPhone Distribution: YOUR NAME" "--resource-rules=/Users/yourusername/Desktop/yourAppName.app/ResourceRules.plist" --entitlements "/Users/yourusername/Desktop/yourAppName.xcent" "/Users/yourusername/Desktop/yourAppName.app"
Note:  The “iPhone Distribution: YOUR NAME” needs to match your distribution certificate in your keychain.  Open KeyChain and make sure you type it exactly as it is in there.
step 12: Right click the .app file and select “compress”
step 13: upload your app!!!
Hope that helps someone!!
Cheers,
Tommy

  • Lowering deployment target of an existing iOS app

    I am wondering if it is possible to lower the deployment target of an existing iOS app in the app store.
    We want the initial release of our app to only target iOS 7+ users. We would then take time to ensure the iOS 6 version was up to par and ideally would be able to submit an update that lowers the deployment target to support iOS 6+ users.
    Does anyone know if this is possible? My collegue is concerned that the update will be rejected because of a past experience where he tried to narrow the supported devices from "Universal" to just "iPhone".

    I don't see why there would be a problem other than the code required to make it work.
    I'd like to see a verbatim copy of your friend's message from Apple because I also don't see why dropping support for some devices would cause rejection.

    2) 2 day ago in the morning i found the ipad in loop, the Apple icon appeared e then after some time the ipad restart again and again and again without give to me the possibility to do anything with itunes, until the only possible thing to do has been to reinstall all  and recover all from the backup
    3) after the recovery I have more 800 app and all are scattered and mixed Especially out of the original forlders but the ipad has only 15 screens (max 300 app) not all are Showed in itunes are Showed in 20 screens but everithing is very very very slow and difficult to to do, all the organization maded during the years is gone lost, a very disaster

    Have you tried sending the attachment from a different account.  Have a friend send you an attachment. Get a gmail account.
    Send the email with attachments to two different accounts one to your ipad and the other to a gmail account in a web browser and not on an iPad.  See if you can read the ones to the gmail account.

  • HT4623 unable to install ios7.04 to ipad. I had no problem installing it to iphone 5c. Never had any problem before. installing any of the IOS 7 updates, just the IOS7 04

    I am having a problem installing IOS 7. 04 to IPad. I had no problem installing it on my iphone 5c. I have didn't have a problem with any of the other installs. I wonder if anyone else is having a problem.

    Thank you very much for your quick response. It took two tries, but it worked, it through me a curve, it directed me to plug in to my computer and go to iTunes, so that is how I did it. I am not very iPad savvy, so for me , it was a challenge . It also brought the iPad back to original set up. Had to set up all apps again. Oh we'll, I appreciate your help. Thanks again.

    Plug your iPad into your computer, open iTunes, and click Restore. This will reset your iPad to factory settings, so make sure everything important is stored safely. Once the restore is complete, do NOT restore from your backup.
    If you still have problems, take the iPad to the Apple Store or another AASP (Apple Authorised Service Provider). If you're still within warranty, any service will be of no cost. Check your serial number here or find your receipt.
    Hope I've helped!
    PS: This is a peer-to-peer forum. Apple generally doesn't pay attention here.

  • IPAD 2 - IOS 7 - problems

    Hi
    Machine: Ipad 2 with IOS 7
    Minor Problems:
    a) screen rotation locks, randomly
    b) Mail app identify 9 flagged mails, but the true is that no flagged mails exists
    c) ITunes identify few updates. When try to install .... Itunes inform they were installed !!!!!!!! After few attempts I'm able to install them
    Major problem:
    a) After selecting a WI-FI router the System screen became twice larger. Attempting to shut down the Ipad reduced the App window to the size of an Iphone. After that the screen became unresponsive. Shut down button was unable to off the ipad. Only the HOME+Suht down button pressed for more than 10 sec has reset the ipad.
    Connecting the Ipad2 to Itunes was OK, during this problem.
    Any one with a similar problem?

    Try reset all settings

  • HT201412 iPad 2, ios 7.0.2; Apple logo when cover opened requiring a reset to start iPad even after system restored through iTunes.  Same problem with Lock / Unlock off.

    This problem only started after installing ios 7.0.2 on 3 Aug 2013.  The iPad must now be switched off before closing the magnetic cover or the system freezes displaying the Apple logo.  I think the lock up occures as the cover is closed as the iPad was quite warm when I returned to use it about 2 hours later.  The battery was fully charged just prior to the upgrade, but, after a system reset to get the iPad running again, I found the previously full battery down to abt. 20%.  I have tried turning the (auto) "Lock / Unlock" off but closing and re opening the cover still reveals a black screen with the Apple logo, and the need to reset.  I restored the iPad through iTunes but the problem still remains........any ideas any one.........APPLE ???

    Thank you for your perseverence.
    Yes I am the first and only owner/user of this iPad.
    No the iPad has never been jailbroken (or dropped, knocked, dunked or sat on)
    1) All Contents and Settings erased as per: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2110
         - Problem still exists -
    2) All Contents and Settings erased as per: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661
         - Problem still exists -
    Both of the above was conducted on a clean install with no backups restored.
    The problem ocurred immediately after the iOS 7.0.2 upgrade. I have used the iPad every day since I got it shortly after version 2 came out and it had performed flawlessly right up to this upgrade. The upgrade was done wirelessly and the battery was fully charged. The iPad was disconnected from the charger before the start of the upgrade and no problems were encountered during the upgrade. I closed the cover on completion and that appears to be when the problem started. All subsiquent restores have been through iTunes 11.1.1.11 with no reported problems.

  • Is there anyone with a 1st generation IPad and IOS 5.1 that's NOT having tons of problems?

    The whole world is always in such a big hurry to buy the next generation of anything - seems this has caused Apple to just not bother with their early customers. So many updates to so many apps to work with all the new stuff - not much works at all for me anymore. Lots of freeze ups and lots of crashes - even ITunes and the App Store constantly crashes. If there's any real help or support out there I sure haven't seen it. First generation IPads aren't really all that old - very disappointed - won't ever buy another one - far too expensive to be forgotten so quickly. If anyone has any HELPFUL information, please reply. If there are fixes available from Apple that I just don't know about, I'll be very glad to eat my words here.

    Nah.... if application updates over the last couple of years weren't going to be compatible with my IPad and IOS 5.1, then the update notices should have never been sent. Keep in mind that as updates became available, the "reminder" never went away until you installed it. All of these "updates" were designed for the newer operating software but also supposed to be compatible with what I have. To my knowledge, ITunes and the App Store were both pre-installed on the IPads and have never been something you could download yourself (only upgrades as they came down the pike).
