ITunes Connect Custom Nav Bar App Rejection

Apple rejected our recent DPS app update based on the custom nav bar buttons that have existed for two years now in the app:
"Please remove the account registration links and any other fully qualified links to your site that could indirectly provide access to external purchases or subscriptions to be used in the app, including links to web pages for support, FAQ, product or program details."
Our custom nav buttons currently link to a digital FAQ page for iPad support and the home pages for our products. Do you know if iTunes has recently changed policies? Or if this is something that we can ask for another review?
Thanks.

This isn't new. If you have links out to a website for an FAQ, that page cannot, in any way, allow your user to navigate around your site to somewhere that they can then do digital purchases.
Heck, we once had Adobe Content Viewer rejected for this reason. The "Forgot Password" link went to a page on www.adobe.com, and from there you could use the broader website navigation to go to the Adobe online store and buy stuff. ACV was rejected and we had to change the page so you couldn't navigate to other parts of the Adobe site.

  • Scroll over highlight function not working on custom nav bar links

    Hi - I've created a custom nav bar in iWeb (www.HollywoodRC.com). I have it set up so that the text highlights when scrolled over. This function works in iWeb but does not work on my published site in Safari; however, works in my published site on IE. Any ideas on how to get the scroll over highlight to work on my published safari site? All the links work properly.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    No. Things must have changed. I created a hyperlink with a non web safe font, LedgerD, added a drop shadow and published. I also put the same link in a shape. You can see them in this test page: Page-1 . The two items are image files but they do not contain the link text. Very strange. The hyperlink text can't be selected nor dragged to the desktop like other links, like the Click to Play links on the page, however.
    However, I don't know how IE will handle it. According to this IE emulator site, http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/, IE can see the drop shadow. But it doesn't tell us how the links will work.

  • Does iTunes Connect Christmas break mean apps won't update with new folios over Christmas?

    I have 2 folios that are due to be released to my app this Christmas - both fall within the 22nd-29th window iTunes have chosen to close down.
    So even though I can publish my folios through DPS over Christmas and pre-plan my app description in iTunes accordingly - before the 22nd - will those published folios not appear in my app?
    Thanks.

    You mean updating a paid folio... don't know if that needs approving, too.
    Maybe someone else can chime in here (I have no exp in that)

  • He iTunes Store account entered is already being used for an iTunes Connect account that distributes Apps

    I am getting the following message when trying to sign up with iTunesConnect for selling our companies eBooks.
    "The iTunes Store account entered is already being used for an iTunes Connect account that distributes Apps. To continue with this application, you must enter a different iTunes account."
    The email account I am using is not being used for distributing apps. We need to sell ebooks.
    We DO have a developer account to sell apps but it is a different email address (confirmed).
    How should I go about getting this straitened so we can get into iTunesConnect?

    That worked, thank you very much! The Apple support document is quite misleading then.

  • ITunes Connect - contract for free Apps delay

    Please can someone clarify if the App submission for a free-app is delayed by 'Pending contract'
    There are threads on here from users waiting many weeks for a free contract to be setup:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1857445?start=0&tstart=0
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1626093?start=0&tstart=0
    My iTunes connect is currently showing "iOS Free Applications" as in effect. Does this mean I will not be stumped by the above delay?
    Many Thanks,
    Ryan

    How much is the 'charge' ? You aren't charged for downloading free apps (though some then allow you to make in-app purchases in them).
    Did you add or change your credit card details on your iTunes account ? If you did then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge ($1 or approximate local equivalent) may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

  • Can you create a custom static top third and nav bar?

    I have created an index page with a custom nav bar and main banner. Is it possible with iweb that this could remain static and just the portion below reloads when you click a nav bar link?

    You can do custom templates and so on and 'print' these to JPEG, or just Export a bunch of JPEGs and put them in iPhoto to create a book online. Not the same, I know, but in case one wanted to do one.
    There is a feature request forum, at <https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform>

  • Free App w/ in-App purchase iTunes Connect settings

    In iTunes Connect - New Application Screen, App Information - if I want my newsstand app free with in-app purchasing do I set the Price Tier as Free then set the pricing later in the final 'Prepared for Upload' screen choosing Manage in-App Purchases?

    Correct, under "Rights and pricing" the price tier should be free. Then set the price of the folios/issues under "Manage in-app purchases"

  • ITunes Connect Application Submission

    Hi all,
    Could anyone provide some experience about submitting their iPhone app on iTunes Connect? Did your app got rejected? If so, were you able to get some information about the rejection? What were the problems and were you able to fix them?

    There was a post on these discussions relating to that. I think they said Apple got back within a couple days (saying the app crashed).
    I'm too lazy to find it for you.

  • Do you have to have a special account to be able to log on to Itunes Connect?

    I have created an app for school, and I would like to put it on Itunes. I am doing this for the first time and i'm not sure how I upload it. My account won't let me sign into itunes connect and I was wondering if I have to have a special account that is paid or something?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    To use iTunes Connect, you have to be a iOS or Mac paid developer. See > http://developer.apple.com In your case, you need a iOS developer account, that costs $99 and gets you access to iOS beta versions and iTunes Connect to upload your apps to the App Store.
    After getting your iOS developer account, you will be able to upload the app to iTunes Connect

  • Whats going with itunes store ? after all this updates. win 7 64 bit store does not upload completly and very slow, no nav bar.

    I re-installed itunes and by this i mean part by part itunes, quicktime and so on. Once I re-installed it looked like all was going well. I went to the store and upload like it use to before the upadtes. Than I pluged my Ipad2 no problem but I went to store once more the problem started agian the up-load  was very slow it didn't up load completly. the nav bar on the store page is missing no apps, music, books,tabs are all gone. I think it has to do  with the new itunes upates in the last few days. I also did the firewall and anti virus off step no fix and i'm running Norton 2011. Has itunes put any message on this ? Is it only window 7 64bit with the problem ? Oh one more thing I was getting a 3259 error but that looks like is good now, but it did take me a few days to download one book and one app the download is very slow.

    Hi,
    I am using a Nvidia 4200M adapter in my Laptop, Driver 266.96, Direct X 11
    In my desktop I am using an ATI XFX 6950, latest revision drivers (I am not at home right now so I cant get that info).
    The issue I did describe above, but it was a long explanation.
    In some flash games the game files load initially and get as far as the "click to start" button. Then the flash area usually goes either all white or all black (usually depending on the falsh game default background color) and then it stays that color. Cant see anything after hitting start (usually most games have an intro video or animation before the game starts, but I cant see any of it.
    For the very few games that do start, the flash game or application does not seem to work correctly in that when the rare game starts, it wont save any game files or save files to the pc and so if I exit the game (navigate away to another page or close browser) and then later come back, even though I click the option to save games (and ensure that the flash application slider shows it can save files and lots of space) it does not save and I have to start from the beginning all the time.
    More explanation I gave above.

  • Can live app be renamed in iTunes Connect?

    Getting conflicting opinions about this. Can an iOS app name be changed once it's been on sale in the App Store? Some say yes with new Version, but the versions are not part of the name in the App Store. Anyone know? THANKS!

    >I'm talking about the official "App Name" (that cannot be changed in Edit Metadata).
    That's bundle display name. Change that in your project and add a version via iTunes Connect. You might want to consider changing the app store name to avoid confusion and rejection during review.
    based on what you're saying, the new version (with new name) will simply replace the current version, correct? Just like doing version updates, right?One and the same.
    See the document linked above.

    As long as the apps and ibooks are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • AIR iOS app fails uploading to Apple (iTunes Connect)

    I've been trying to upload my iOS app to iTunes Connect via Application Loader but it fails every single time. I'm getting the following error(s);
    'Unable to run the lipo command: ... Can't map input file ...' and 'Application failed codesign verification'
    I believe the second error is due to the first, but I'm not sure. I've been looking around the web for solutions and only found this thread on here, I've tried everything said there but nothing helps.
    Replacing my game with an empty FLA doesn't seem to work either.

    I'm on the latter side, usually it's a codesigning issue. How did you develop your certs and did you follow the order specifically in my list in that post? Often people use old certs but create a new app ID and expect the old certs to work.
    There's been other discussions about extra "files" that Flash Pro inserts into IPAs (.zips in disguise). Because Flash Pro publishes to a folder that's not built specifically for that build, people sometimes copy extra files into that path. Those files can "automatically" and accidentally be added to the IPA without the author desiring that. You should check what files are being packaged with your IPA to verify there's no extra junk.
    Are you using flash CS5.5 or CS6 and what version of AIR are you overlayed to?

  • Need to revert a universal app to iphone in iTunes connect

    The question is can we replace a Universal App with and Iphone app in iTunes connect and what are the steps. In this case the iPhone app is the app the Universal app replaced in the first place.
    Our client claims you cannot replace a Universal app with an iPhone app but we cannot tell if that is a message they got from trying to do it in the store or hearsay.
    Background:
    Our client had another developer (actually a few even before that) deliver an IOS universal app that was upgrade from the iPhone app already in the store. It was built starting witht the code base for that original iPhone app in the store.
    Unfortunately the developer had serious bugs in the iPhone version of the universal app that were missed by the client.
    More unfortunate is that the client replaced the iPhone app in the store with the Uuniversal app without QA and so with the improperly functioning iPhone part.
    They since took the universal app out of the store.
    We have the source for the original iPhone version and thought we could simply build that and replace the broken universal app.

    UPDATE: Ignore this is from 2010 and pre-dates Universal app type.
    Although the original poster has not replied back this is a hackish tease for a solution:
    Want to downgrade from an Universal app to just an ipad app..
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3277945/want-to-downgrade-from-an-universal-a pp-to-just-an-ipad-app
    First make sure you change that setting both for the project and your target, if it is still unchanged just manually edit project.pbxproj in the xcode project bundle changing all occurences of TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY = "1,2" to TARGETED_DEVICE_FAMILY = "1" 
    also Minimum OS Requirements is determined by the deployment sdk setting (IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET in the aforementioned file) , not affected by LSMinimumSystemVersion
