Newsstand Subscribers and Push Notifications

We have a free publication on the newsstand which is getting good attention and downloads from users, we are facing two major challenges to keep the readership of the magazine as high as the downloads, those are :-
- Not knowing who subscribed, we have looked everywhere and even asked the support team and it seems there is no way for us to know who subscribed to the magzine (free in-app purchase), so we can contact/communicate with, which is creating a huge gap between us and the readers, we are pretty active on social networks, but with the fact that we have no clue who subscribed, this is very challenging, any recommendations on this issue ?
- Push Notification, unfortunetly being a pro member we cannot send a messege to the subscribers/app downloaders about new issues, we can only send a notification which will will show a red badge/ribbon, and this does not sem to be effective and is not helping in increasing the number of downloads per issue ! and this is actually not to Adobe's advantage because this will end up slowing folio downloads which adobe sells in bundles !
I would love to hear from the Adobe guys and other fellow members on how to tackle those challenges, and would also want to hear from Adobe if there is any option for Pro customers to send 'messege notifications to drive higher folio downloads.

Very interesting questions!
First: in DPS Dashboard you see only the user id (not the Apple id)... the same also in iTunes Connect.
Second: How is the message that Enterprise admin can send to subscribers? Can you send a screenshot?
Many thanks!

IOS 7.0.3 upgrade killed Facetime, iMessage and Push Notifications

Facetime, iMessage and Push Notifications were working fine on my iPhone 4.
Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 Facetime and iMessages cannot be activated because of 'Network error' and every app that supports 'Push Notifications' suggest to 'Connect to iTunes to use Push Notifications' at start.
Already tried to 'Reset as new phone' and restore from iCloud without any luck.
Suggestions ?

Ever since I got the 7.0.3 update on my iPhone 4 I get the "iMessage Activation: Could not sign in. Please check your network conection and try again". I can access icloud stuff using my apple ID fine elsewhere. I received iMessages on my laptop through the Messages app but anyone else who uses Messages has their iMessage sent to my laptop and not to my phone. I used to get the messages both at the same time.
I've tried removed the locate iphone app, reset the network settings, rebooted the phone, reconnected to my wifi and synched with iTunes. Nothing has worked.
I'm getting ready to restore the phone now in hopes that doing that works. Never had a problem with updates till now and while this is annoying at least my data is intact!

Out of nowhere my iMessage,FaceTime,YouTube and push notifications don't work at all!!!!

Out of nowhere my iMessage,FaceTime,YouTube and push notifications will not work!! I get an activation error saying that there is a problem with my network. I've tried everything I have read, but still no success. My iPad and all of its apps have worked perfectly since Christmas, and without doing anything differently this happened one morning!! Lame huh?? Well, I'm SO FRUSTRATED!!!!
Please help me!
I have tried changing the DNS, I have turned wifi off and on, I've tried connecting elsewhere, restarting my whole iPad, soft reset and hard reset. Resettled my wifi. And still NOTHING!!! My dad went away for a few months, and that's why I got my iPad, now I haven't been able to talk with him for over a week... I'm desperate people!! ;) help mee pretty please with a cherry on top!

Problems with iPod Touch- YouTube and Push Notifications

After installing iOS4 on my 64gb iPod Touch I've noticed I cannot view YouTube videos and push notifications do not work.
The YouTube app launches, however if I try to search or play a video a pop up will read "Cannot connect to YouTube". If I go to YouTube's newly redesigned mobile site they work fine.
Although all my settings are the same as they have ever been, push notifications do not work. When launching any app with push notification support it always states "Connect to iTunes to use push notifications". I've done this, but nothing works.
For the record, I've never jailbroken or in any other way altered my device. I've tried performing a hard reset with no success, as well as letting the battery drain completely and shutting off before recharging.
Thanks for any help.

Downgrading is not supported by Apple.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

IMessage and push notifications not working after installing iOS 7!!

My iMessages and push notifications don't work after installing iOS7..!!! I can't even log in to iMessages using my Apple ID.. And every time I log into Facebook or whatsapp it keeps telling me to connect to iTunes to receive push notifications..!!
I connected to iTunes on my comp and tried resetting my phone.. Nothing works!! HELP

Its stuffed, iMessage and facetime are both sitting on "waiting for activation" so they are not working, 1 post suggested resetting the phone again setting up as a new phone and then turning iMessage and Facetime on and then restoring. After the reset iMessage and Facetime started working, I did the restore and it stopped working again. Nice waste of 2 hours.

What's the difference between "local reminder" and "push notification?

A friend has been bugging me about this, does anyone know what's the difference between "local reminder" and "push notification" in an iPhone app?

In a nutshell, local notifications are popup notifications from applications on your phone, based on data that's already on the local phone. Push notifications are popup notifications you get when new info (like an email, tweet, or update from something like Facebook) gets pushed to your device from a server.

Thanko vibrating bracelet and push notifications

Friend of mine recently received a Thanko bluetooth bracelet that vibrates when a paired iPhone receives a phone call. She had a problem with it, however, and we've been e-mailing back and forth trying to figure out why it wasn't vibrating. Turns out she was expecting it to also vibrate when a new e-mail came in, which the bracelet isn't designed to do.
But that got me to thinking...why not? A bracelet that vibrated when a push notification came in would be tremendously useful. I can't think of how many times I've had my iPhone charging in the bedroom while I'm in the kitchen and when e-mail, sms messages, and yes, even phone calls, came in, I didn't hear them. People who carry their phones in a bag, like my wife, would also find such a thing useful.Such a device would also be useful for receiving news and e-bay auction alerts and video/facebook/skype notifications, too.
Does anyone know if the iPhone can send push notifications (i.e, vibrate or beep) to a bluetooth device?

Hi InGen,
For troubleshooting software on your iPhone, I would suggest following the steps in the User Guide -

Force an app to quit. From the Home screen, double-click the Home button and swipe upwards on the app screen.
If you can’t turn off iPhone or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPhone. Do this only if you’re unable to restart your iPhone.
Reset iPhone. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

So what's the deal with AIM and Push notifications?

So we all get 3.0. AIM is supposed to get push. So going into the AIM prefs, "push" is the same old send an SMS to the iPhone number. The SMS comes in, you hit reply and the iPhone opens SMS app!!! It doesn't open AIM.
This is nuts. Talk about things never changing.

Randy Fast wrote:
The app isn't yet updated to take advantage of the PNS. Just wait, a few are coming out now. AP news just got updated and has PNS settings.
AIM was one of the apps used for testing Push for the last 10 days. And I'm using the paid version. One would think then it would be working.
I've been using BeeJiveIM for so long, I bought AIM today to see how the Push works.
So what you are saying is Push notifications are still not implemented?

Greetings rusfrco,
After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with app updates app on your iPad. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

Ipod Touch 2G and Push Notifications not working

Hello,
I did a full restore to firmware 3.0 on my touch 2g, wiped everything, then proceded to install some apps that support push, and they don't appear to be working. Yes, I'm testing with push enabled apps (AIM), and Push on Settings is turned on. I tried rebooting, iTunes doesn't detect any problem, everything appears OK, but no Push Notifications whatsoever.
Any help ?
Thank you !
ps: I can provide the Serial Number and UDID that iTunes shows for this device if necessary.

It is either a problem of the earphone jack of the iTouch or the plug of the earphones, have you tried another earphones, if the problem still there, send your iTouch for service

Mail App and Push Notifications

I've done a bit of research and apparently the way to enable push on Mac's Mail Application is to check the "Use IDLE common if the server supports it" option. My problem is that I use a Yahoo account and this option, while checked, is faded out. Does this mean that Push notification is not possible with a Yahoo account?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. Any custom stationery that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to preserve that data. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Universal Apps and Push Notifications (Question on both Store and Phone app)

I have a Universal App and trying to implement notifications. I have an Azure Notification Hub and the code in the app.xaml.cs (shared) file that is creating the channel and binding to my notification hub. This all works great for the Windows Store app.
However, I don't receive any notifications on the Phone app (running in the emulator). I am wondering if this is because the code to create the PushNotificationChannel is only registering once (the Store app) and has the same URI as the phone app. This line
of code is what I am referring to:
var channel = await PushNotificationChannelManager.CreatePushNotificationChannelForApplicationAsync();
Since this is by application, and I am essentially running the same app twice on the same machine, via the phone emulator, is only one URI being generated for this?
Thanks for any assistance.

When you created the push notifications in the Azure, you chose the code fr Windows Store, not Windows Phone. as you mentioned you having a universal apps.
Hint: Did you enabled push notifications for local testing ?
This is the 4 steps to have a successful Push notification integration with your app
Register your app for push notifications
Update the service to send push notifications
Enable push notifications for local testing
Test push notifications in your app

IOS 4 and Push Notifications?

Are push notifications finally supported on SLS now that iOS 4.0 has been released?
Message was edited by: Rusty Ross

shrugs
Works on the iPhone and iPod (running OS 3.1.3) I tested. Believe me, you almost have to have the SLS machine sitting on a public IP for everything to work correctly, but it does appear to work for us (20+ iPhone/iPod/iPad users, 50+ laptop/desktop clients). SSL is an absolute requirement for all services, and you must use the FQDN for all services when configuring the clients. Users should be shortname@FQDN when configuring services on the clients. Reverse DNS must match forward DNS (FQDN) for the server, and the SSL certificate also must match the FQDN of the server. Aliases make a huge mess of things (IMHO), so I don't use them.
Everything still works on the iPhones and iPods running iOS 4, but it seems the push notifications are a bit slower for some reason in iCal. I was messing with the iPod this morning using iCal, and noticed an update made to a calendar from a desktop took a couple minutes to appear on the iPod. Still much faster than the 30 minute "pull" interval configured on the iPod for services that do not support push.
