IPhone Dev/Store - Support for in-game points of sale?

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently putting together a revenue plan for our iPhone application and have run across a question that could really change some of our technical planning, depending on the answer...
*I'm curious if the iPhone Developer Program/iPhone store will allow for in-game sales* - that is, an upsell point within the game itself (say after a trial ends) where the user can opt to upgrade to the full version of the game and make the purchase from within the application itself.
Services like Xbox Live Arcade and a lot of the PC casual games market have used techniques like these with REALLY great results, and it'd be great to see some support from Apple on this front.
I know info's scarce right now due to the NDA, but is there somewhere like a public announcement that I could have missed this?
Hoping for the best,
Luca

No one here would have the answer to that. http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action may be able to help you out or at least get you pointed in the right direction.

  • Iphone app store asks for old apple id when i try to update apps

    I recently reset my apple id. However when I try to update apps in my iphone it asks for my old apple id info. When I enter this in it states that the info is incorrect and needs to be reset. However when I download new apps the app store asks for my recently updated apple id info. When I have tried to delete the apps that need to be updated and buy them again, I was charged for the app. As a result I cannot update any apps. How can I fix this?

    You changed it wrong. You should have done it this way:

  • I am having issues with tech support for King Games!   Why can't they support their game?

    I have been having issues with Bubble Witch saga for over a week! Mather continue to give me the run around.  Finally today, they have admitted that they are too busy with their other games to offer support!  They ask me to continue to be patient ! Lol. Please, see below.     What is one to do when these app companies are not able to support their apps?  Does Apple think this is good?
    Thanks!
    Dear Robin,
    Thank you for contacting us.
    Please, you have to understand that there are a lot of games provided by King and therefor we have different support teams for the 'bigger' games. Therefor we don't have the information or tools to help you with your enquiries with Bubble Witch Saga.
    I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
    Kind regards,
    Gustaf
    King customer support.

    Thanks!  I just think that Apple would have concern with App companies  who are being offered through Apple!  This may seem as though it isn't Apples issue but, in truth it is, to the extent that it looks bad on Apple. Apple, should expect companies that use their App Store to provide support for their product or not allow these companies to have apps in the Apple store!  Believe it or not..... This is a reflection!  
    But, don't worry, I am trying to get them to support the game.  At the very least my review will not be good and eventually I will stop playing as others have done!!!

  • Does Cisco Prime have support for HP Access Points?

    I am trying to sell a solution to a client with dozens of large warehouses with a large existing HP wireless solution.  I want to sell them on a Cisco wireless solution involving Prime to manage/monitor their current HP Access Points while we do a phased replacement to Cisco WLC and APs.
    I cannot find listed in the documentation whether Cisco Prime has support for the HP access points though.  I see it has 'some' support listed for some Aruba controllers, but not anything else.

  • IPhone 3G - No support for wired remote controls?

    I have been looking all over the place for a wired remote for the iPhone 3G with no luck (and yes I have looked through this forum for an answer before asking my question).
    I have attempted to use three wired remotes from my previous iPods, but two of them do not work at all and the third is completely unreliable. It is an Apple branded wired remote for the iPod video with similar design to the iPod Shuffle and allows you to connect your own headphones. It will only function after a hard-reset of the iPhone 3G, and strangely it takes about a minute or two for the buttons to work. If I unplug and replug the remote it will no longer be recognised and will not work again until the iPhone 3G is restarted.
    I cannot see any wired remote products in the Apple store and I keep getting blank stares whenever I take this question to sales persons.
    I use my iPod extensively and the only reason I bought an iPhone 3G was because I was tired of missing calls whilst listening to mp3s. I consider the wired remote as being essential for satisfactory use when out running, driving the car, etc. Without it the iPod functionally is all but useless to me.
    Is there a wired remote that the iPhone 3G supports?
    Additionally, are there any iPhone 3G compatible bluetooth devices that essentially perform the same function and allow you to attach your own headphones?

    I've been looking for a decent remote for exactly the same reasons since I bought the 3g iPhone on release day. I settled for the Griffin SmartTalk as it allows you to answer calls, play / pause and skip (forward only meh!). Its cheap as chips (and it looks and feels as such) but it kinda does the job. Still waiting for a decent remote though. And A2DP for crying out loud! Its been long enough already. Then I could get this... http://www.foneshop.com/accessories/description/2486
    which I feel is the best solution I've seen!

  • Where is the Canada store support for Movies, TV Shows!?

    Really?! Its outrageous that I can't buy TV shows, Movies, or any of the extras that are on the American store because I live in Canada. Its ********. If there is any work around to this, please let me know. I tried making a separate apple ID but my credit card wouldn't go through because it was on my main Canadian account. I think its time for Apple to start stepping up and supporting the Canadian store more than it does.

    The availability of certain item in a certain store depends on the will of the copyright holder, it's not Apple's choice not to offer them.
    And in addition:
    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS you do need -
    * either a CC with a billing address in that certain country.
    * or an address in that certain country plus a gift voucher/prepaid card issued by that certain iTMS.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions there is "no go".

  • Applications for the iPhone and Corporate Support for device usage....

    Not all applications are appropriate for internet access only. For example, I use a software package called eWallet to store my personal information in...I would prefer NOT to store this type of information on the internet. I love the interface for this device, but the lack of applications and Apple's unwillingness to open the platform up for developers will be enough for me to return back to a Blackberry or a Treo.
    Also, the company I work for is certainly not willing to allow employees to install iTunes to synchronize contacts, calendars and phone information...I think Apple has a huge task ahead trying to break into the corporate world with this device.

    That is true - if they were aiming this at the corporate world. As you can tell from the activation process that you can't even HAVE a business account and have it work with your iPhone, I don't think that's the direction they are looking at.

  • IPhone 3GS (au) support for WPA2 Enterprise

    Can someone provide me with an official page outlining whether the iPhone 3GS from Australia supports WPA2 Enterprise wifi security?
    Also, whether it depends on the version of iOS as well.
    Thanks.

    Enterprise networking is now supported I believe.

  • Iphone 4 won't BT connect with Ipod for Multiplayer game

    Ok.  So I've searched and can't find a solid answer.  I downloaded a Battleship game and have it both on my ipod touch and iphone4.  I tried using the multiplayer function with my wife through BT, but my iphone won't connect (find her ipod).  Her ipod finds my iphone but my iphone just cycles through.  From what I can tell from the searches I have done is the iPhone ****** people off because it won't connect through bluetooth with anything but headsets, etc.  But I thought I read that it will connect through BT for games.  And even when the Battleship game searches BT it says it's looking for other ipods, iphones, or ipads.  So I'm wondering if my ipod and iphone SHOULD be connecting for the game, but for some reason isn't. 
    Any help would be appreciated.

    No one has any help for me or has also had this problem?

  • IOS to LWAPP for 1130AG Access Points

    We have initially installed IOS-based 1130 APs. If we would be upgrading it to LWAPP mode, could we pushed IOS-to-LWAPP upgrade thru the network? what procedures are required?

    Hi Leopoldo,
    This is possible and fully supported and can be done using the "LWAPP Upgrade Tool". Have a look at the following;
    LWAPP Upgrade Tool Troubleshoot Tips
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a008072d9a1.shtml
    Access points must run Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)JA or later before you use the upgrade tool.
    System Requirements
    You can use the Autonomous to Lightweight Mode upgrade tool to install Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)JX on these access points:
    All 1100 series access points containing MP21G (802.11g) radios
    ***All 1130, 1230, and 1240 series access points
    All modular 1200 series access points running Cisco IOS software and containing these supported radios:
    802.11g: MP21G, MP31G
    802.11a: AIR-RM21A-x-K9, AIR-RM22A-x-K9
    All 1300 series access points in access point mode
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/access_point/ios/release/notes/b311jx1.html
    Cisco has released a free tool called the "Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool" that allows selected Cisco Aironet autonomous access point models to be configured for lightweight mode operation.
    The Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool supports the following models:
    Cisco Aironet 1240AG Series access points
    Cisco Aironet 1230AG Series access points
    Cisco Aironet 1200 Series access points that contain 802.11g (AIR-MP21G-x-K9) and/or second-generation 802.11a radios (AIR-RM21A-x-K9 or AIR-RM22A-x-K9)
    Cisco Aironet 1130AG Series access points
    **Cisco Aironet 1100 Series Access Points that contain 802.11g radios (AIR-AP1121G-x-K9)
    Cisco Aironet 1300 Series Access Points/Bridges (AIR-BR1310G-x-K9 or AIR-BR1310G-x-K9-R). A Cisco Aironet 1300 Series operating in Lightweight Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) mode only operates as an access point. This series does not support LWAPP bridging mode.
    The Autonomous to Lightweight Mode Upgrade Tool supports a process to migrate an autonomous access point from autonomous mode to lightweight mode. Unlike a VxWorks to Cisco IOS Software upgrade, this process is a Cisco IOS Software upgrade to the existing Cisco IOS Software image-not an operating system "swapout". In converted access points operating in lightweight mode, Cisco IOS Software continues to run on the access point, while LWAPP is used to communicate with a wireless LAN controller. Since LWAPP supports automatic access point configuration, there is no need to retain or convert the original autonomous Cisco IOS Software access point configuration.

    OK, as always I waited before downloading a new OS and I'm sure glad I did. On the APP store I sorted comments by most critical...and WHOA...what is Apple doing? No support for Logic 9, MS Office? Is Apple only trying to reach the iphone/iTouch crowd? HELP! I was going to buy a new Mac pro & two 27" monitors but until I see some real problem addressing by Apple...I'll keep what I have and see how everything pans out. If anyone has any comments to ally my fears, I welcome them. I've been a devoted Mac user since 1993. 7500; G4; G5; and my latest Mac Pro...Where do I go? Again...HELP!

    Hi there,
    If you look through ALL the reviews, they are mainly good. I feel that Lion is an excellent upgrade, although not essential.
    There have been some issues with MS Office, but right now, it is up to Microsoft to issue a Lion compatible update, which will come in time. Saying this, MS Office has been working fine on my mac, it seems to be an isolated issue.
    Logic 9 seems like a strange issue. Again, an update looks to be coming soon, with Lion support.
    I do not feel that apple only focusing on the iPhone and iPad user base. There are many features carried along, but the machine can still be used for pro tools and use just as well. It still is a fantastic, reliable, fast, easy to use OS, which I have had very few problems with. Some additions you may not use, but they don't get in the way. You will love the new Exposé, Mission Control, as it is great for pro users who have many windows open at once, and the new spaces. You may however, never use Launchpad, but you don't have to, just drag it away from the dock!
    I really reccomend buying a mac with Lion, although if you are worried about bugs, wait a few months for the issues to be ironed out, and updates to be given. Because the update is so very cheap, I really think you can hardly go wrong. Try it out with your current mac, and if you like it, go ahead and buy your new ones.
    Lion is fantastic, albeit maybe rushed.
    Any other queries, just ask,
    Nathan

  • HT4314 There is a defect in SpellTower.  I was in the middle of a game of Puzzle Mode on my iPhone and had passed the 63,000  point level.  The game then disappeared without any record.  My wife had a similar problem on her iPad in Tower mode. Fibonacci44

    Has anyone else had the following problem with Spell Tower?  I was in the middle of a game in Puzzle mode on my iPhone and had passed the 63,000 point mark. I paused the game (as I had many times before).  When I tried to resume the game, the game had vanished without any record.  My wife had a similar problem in Tower Mode.  In addition, the Apple support page says that, to report an issue, one should click on a specified link at the bottom of the information page for the App in question.  There is no such link on the SpellTower information page.  Fibonacci44

    There are two separate issues here.
    1.  There is a potential problem with the game Spelltower.  That needs to be discussed directly with Spelltower.  My attempted emails to Spelltower have been bounced.
    2.  Apple, on its own webpage, purports to establish a procedure for reporting an issue with an app.  But that procedure does not work with Spelltower because someone at Apple neglected to include a link on the relevant information page.  I have been trying to find that contact info without success.  Apple should take ownership of supplying that contact info.
