Maximum app size, iPad

Hi
I've read elsewhere that an ipa can be max 2GB in size, but any data downloaded after that is only limited to the amount of storage on the device. Can someone confirm this is the case with AIR for iPad?
My app is small but will need to download and play large videos, and preferably keep them on the device.
Thanks,
rich

See page 172 of this PDF (about the 2GB limit):
https://itunesconnect.apple.com/docs/iTunesConnect_DeveloperGuide.pdf
I can't think of a reason the limit would be any different for an AIR app.
One complication is that if you save things into the wrong place, Apple may reject the app. Read this article for some tips:

What is maximum app size?

I am creating an app game. but the main problem is that i dont know how much is the maximum size of the app? which will include the graphic and etc?
some people tell me that app more then 50MB will make the game slow, but how come there are apps in appstore which are 500MB, 600MB, 800MB, AND 1.5GB?
IS THERE ANY WAY TO MAKE A BIG SIZE APP WITH 200MG RUN FAST OR NORMAL?

Notice that there are two methods to choose from when it is time to upload an app?
You can use the upload form via ITC or 'Application Loader'.
Application Loader allows you to bypass the webpage upload mechanism where large files can be lengthy (w/no progress indication) and/or problematic.
I've heard the max file size for a compressed app is 20mb. That is untested and unconfirmed by me however, so you may want to take it strictly as rumor until/unless you test or learn differently for yourself.

Maximum file size for Adobe air for Androind and iOS compiled apps

Hi All
I am working on a project which has a few videos which I need to bundle into my mobile app for an Ipad app I am creating using Adobe Air for iOS. My question is simple is there a maximum file size limit on apps compiled using Adobe air for iOS? And if so what is it? Any help would be great.
regards Mike

Hi. Im not a 100% sure this is correct. I am able to make a large .IPA file (200+Mb) and it will go onto my iPad 1, but it does not work - Just quicts after a few secs. If I run the same IPA on my iPad 2 it works.
When I take out some of the assets so its a smalelr size then it does run on the iPad.

Maximum folio-size (single-folio apps)

Hello,
I am searching for the maximum folio-size of single-folio apps.
Can someone help me in this case?
Thank you in advance!

I think it's around 2 GB, however it's best if you keep it less than 700-800 MB.

Maximum Spreadsheet size on iPad

Dear All
Please let me know what is your maximum size spreadsheet that you have successfully used on your iPad?
I am working towards developing educational software for the iPad and have a spreadsheet that is currently 1682KB - 5775 rows and 123 columns.
My ipad 1 struggles to load it and I wondered if the iPad 4 would also struggle.
I understand the iPad is not primarily designed for spreadsheets, so was wondering what the maximum usable size is that I should be aiming for.
By "usable" I mean to be able to load it in ten seconds or less.
I will also check with my colleagues iPads which are the iPad 4.
Many thanks for your time.

Sun has a number of papers on these topics, ie. for the maximum heap size (http://java.sun.com/performance/reference/whitepapers/tuning.html#section4.1.2).

Is there a way to increase the font size for the "songs" and "artists" lists in the new music app for iPad 2 (iOS 5)? It is too small for me.

Is there a way to increase the font size for the "songs" and "artists" lists in the "music" app for iPad 2 (iOS 5)? It is smaller than the previous version.

It would depend on your definition of "Fix"
Your iPod touch running OS 4.2 has a ZOOM feature which will enable you to see the screen more clearly.
To turn Zoom on or off got to:
Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.
_To Zoom in or out_:
Double-tap the screen with three fingers. By default, the screen is magnified 200 percent. If you manually change the magnification (by using the tap-and-drag gesture, described below), iPod touch automatically returns to that magnification when you zoom in by double-tapping with three fingers.
Increase magnification: With three fingers, tap and drag toward the top of the screen (to increase magnification) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease magnification). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t lift your fingers on the second tap—instead, drag your fingers on the screen. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger.
_Move around the screen_:
When zoomed in, drag or flick the screen with three fingers. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger so that you can see more of the screen. Hold a single finger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of the screen image. Move your finger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
_Large Text_:
Large Text lets you make the text larger in alerts, and in Calendar, Contacts, Mail, Messages, and Notes. You can choose 20-point, 24-point, 32-point, 40-point, 48-point, or 56-point text.
Set the text size: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility, tap Large Text, then tap the text size you want.
I hope this has helped a little - other than this option I think it pretty much is what it is.
BTW - This information can be found on page 208 of the iPod Touch iOS 4.2 Users Guide.
Best wishes..
Ricky

Will app sizes increase across the board because of the new iPad?

After the release of the new iPad on Wednesday, most apps figure to update their capabilities accommodate the new iPad's boosted resolution. And it appears that this process will result in an appreciable — if not significant — increase in app size. For example, Apple's Find My Friends app has gone from 14MB to 18MB in an update optimized for the new iPad Retina display. GarageBand went from 768MB to 801MB. Obviously, for users who download lots of apps (like me), these app size increases represent a strong argument against purchasing a new iPad with the minimum capacity of 16GB. What do you think?

People seem to be focusing on the size creep in apps, however, this is likely to be functionality driven more than due to the display for most apps. The real driver that I have found wrt storage space is videos. Now with the new display it is likely that people will move more to HD videos from iTunes, etc.. and this will be what drives the increase in storage required.
If your photos are compressed JPEGs then what you'll have to think about is how many videos you want to carry. There is also the possibility that with the new screen resolution that people start to store pictures at higher resolutions also which might drive storage.
Either way HD is a canny move by Apple as it will ultimately drive revenue growth through iTunes ;-)

Ipad apps size shows as huge - how do I fix things?

I have an iPad and an iPad mini and have installed the same apps on both. I reset/wiped the iPad mini to factory defaults (to fix intermittent crashes) and then reinstalled all apps from the App store but have not (yet) done this for the iPad (which seems to be working fine without any intermittent crashes).
My question relates to the storage size of the apps on both the iPad and the iPad mini, as shown in the coloured bars in iTunes.
The apps size for the reinstalled apps on the iPad mini show as 5.06 GB for 86 apps.
The apps size for the apps on the iPad show as 24.09 GB for 89 apps.
I'm not sure why there are 3 more apps on the iPad but even this cannot explain the huge difference in storage sizes (5.06 GB vs. 24.09 GB). The biggest apps I have are some TomTom navigation apps (max size 2 GB) -- but these TomTom apps are not even installed on either iPad or iPad mini (only on my iPhone).
Can anyone help me understand the reason for the huge storage size difference on the two iPads and show/tell me how to free up the inflated storage space?
I guess I could do this by resetting and reinstalling the iPad (as I did for the iPad mini), but I was hoping there may be an easier solution.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
The reason for the discrepancy in app sizes was due to the Zinion app on the older iPad having locally stored magazine downloads for the past 3 years which had not been redownloaded onto the iPad mini after it had been reset to factory defaults.
I've now tidied things up by removing old downloads no longer needed and available storage on the iPad is now back to where it should be.

The initial heap size must be less than or equal to the maximum heap size.

All,
Please help!!
I have tested my Application Client Project in WSAD on my pc and it works fine.
I have 1gb RAM on my pc. When I deploy the same app on another xp pc(same as mine but 512mb RAM) I get a heap size error. Here is the exact error:

@pause
I have changed the value of Xms and Xmx of JVM_ARGS to different size but I sitll get error. Anyone knows what the problem is. Thanks..

Don't know why, but the "maximum heap size: 267380736 bytes" value is just slightly less than 256*1024*1024, wheras the reported initial size is equal to that.
Try setting the initial value to 255MB.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

Maximum HD size for MDD G4?

Hi there
I had a real pain in the proverbial when trying to do a clean install of Panther (or Tiger) on a 1Ghz G4 on a new 200 Gb HD. There were instablilities, Hands on shout down/restarts, etc, before running any updates or 3rd party apps.
Is there a maximum HD size for these Macs? It came with a 80Gb HD.
Thanks for any help...

Some RAM that worked under prior versions of OS X has been known to fail. Tiger makes much more use of all available RAM for cache is part of the reason. Memtest would give it a good workout overnight.
MDDs support Cable Select, it depends in part on the IDE cable itself. In fact, you could use it on older Macs and controllers most of the time.
Never apply an update without first doing a backup and some disk repair and maintenance. Even flushing the cache folders with something like Applejack. Never use your Mac while an update is taking place. Reboot prior to applying an update, might want to use Safe Boot Mode. And use the standalone updates, and the combo update if possible. On some occasions it was necessary to reapply the combo update.
With Tiger, I found that while it was possible to update, a full erase and install resulted in a better OS. So backup.
If you keep your home directory or backup on another drive, so much the easier and better.

What is the maximum file size allowed by Yosemite's Archive Utility?

I've seen radically different answers to this question, ranging from ".zip files have a 4GB size limit" to "no limit other than the OS maximum file size". It's been very difficult to find current info on this.
I have lots of large folders full of recording projects --- I'm talking up to 45GB or so --- and I've been experimenting with different methods of zipping them in preparation for cloud backup. Several applications have been willing to zip my enormous folders into archives, but then choke when unzipping them, telling me that the files cannot be unzipped or are corrupted. Using the "Compress" shortcut in the finder has so far yielded the best results, keeping all necessary resource forks, etc., and unzipping properly, even when other apps have insisted the files are corrupted. However, I'm afraid to continue with this procedure until I can get a straight answer on this issue: have I just been lucky so far? IS there an actual size limit?
...It only seems to work when I both zip and unzip with the Archive Utility. Other archiving apps will either render the included projects unreadable by my recording software when zipping (I suspect because of alteration or stripping of resource forks), or will refuse to read the giant .zip archives generated by Archive Utility.
I've set up the Archive Utility to produce .zip files, as I feel these are the most likely to be recognized by a variety of cloud storage services.ny
...Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
The 1,048,576 rows & 16,384 columns is the
workbook size limitation in Excel 2013. Thus, I recommend we try the Mr. Bernie's suggestions to import the large CSV file.
1. Use VBA to read the file line by line and split/examine the import file in sections. If you have further question about the VBA, please post your question to the MSDN forum for Excel
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
2. Use Excel 2013 add-ins. Power Pivot and Power Query. For more detailed information, please see the below articles:

Maximum DB Size?

Mark, hello;
can you please provide some kind of formula to estimate BDB JE limits?
maximum database size?
maximum number or records?
maximum record size?
maximum key size?
thank you!
Andrei.

Hi,
I'm trying to read between the lines and have concluded that you're using key ranges instead of databases, because you can't create enough databases in total over the lifetime of your app. Correct?
Would support for 2^63 databases solve your problem? Not promising anything, just curious.
An optimized range deletion is a nice thing, and we should probably do it in the future. But because of JE's architecture I don't think it will ever be nearly as fast as a Database removal or truncation, which is already optimized.

What do I do if Adobe Reader is not in Open In list as an app on iPad?

What I do if Adobe Reader is not in Open In list as an app on iPad?

Hi,
The Open-In menu on iPad lists a maximum of ten apps. You also need to scroll down the list to see some of the listed apps.
In case Adobe Reader does not show up in the menu, you may choose to delete some of the other apps which may result in Adobe Reader being listed in the Open In menu.
Please let us know if this solves your issue.
Thanks,
Rishi
