Push Notifications & Red Badge V25

This doesnt get mentioned in the V25 release page but, while checking out the latest version of the App Builder I came across this in the Certificate Page:
Does this mean the iOS notification system is available now to Pro users?
Not sure why the check boxes and input box are greyed out. They are defaulted that way.

You need to set up push by providing your push certificates in app builder. Once your certificates are up, the notification button in folio producer will send a push out to every iOS device that has installed your app and registered for notifications.
If you don't enable your app to recieve push notifications when it is built or if you don't provide correct push certificates from apple to Adobe, push will do nothing (actually it will send an error if you have incorrect certififcates).
This is fully explain in Bob's most excellent documentation on app builder.

Update notification (red badge) for iOS 8.0.2 on 4S but none for 8.0 or 8.0.1. Is this normal?

I have a iphone 4S and I use it everyday yet something comes up as being strange. When iOS 8 was released there was no red badge on the settings, it also wasn't there when the blotched 8.0.1 update came up so why is it now coming up for 8.0.2?
What's apple policy on the badge? (2 updates? 1 month from new iOS?) Can someone tell me if this is normal (update notification on the third iOS "version/update (counting 8.0 as 1st)" instead if it being there from the moment a new iOS comes out) and if you've had a similar situation please let me know.

If a device on a network can crash a router/WAP, the issue is with that router/WAP is there is no "crash the network" command within the Wi-Fi protocol.
That's why there are networking standards; if properly adhered to they dictate what will occur when commands are received and commensurately, the only things that will happen.
Feel free to fill out the form and peruse the actual specifications of the protocol yourself if you so choose; there's no "crash network" option.

Whether the router is Apple's or another vendor's, it needs to be able to deal with whatever traffic/commands are sent to it.

Push Notifications, Specifically Badges

I have noticed lately that sometimes my push nofications just never come through.
Especially badges over icons.
I have them all enabled.
I wonder if something is going on with the apple servers.
I dont think its verizon cause even when im on wifi sometimes i dont get them.
Anyone else notice this?>

It's one of 3 things:
1. Apple servers
2. Network
3. Application
Some applications suck at push notifications while some applications are on the ball. Sometimes push goes over the bit limit and Apple servers will dump them instead of sending them.

Push notifications not working even after i've enabled them in 'Settings'

I want Push notifications - alerts, badges, sounds. I accidentally pressed 'Don't Allow' when asked in Instagram and Kik. I read up on the issue and have been advised to go into Settings > Notifications> 'App' and then change the Push Notifications to 'on' but even after i've done that there has been no change and I still dont receive any notifactions when the app is not open.
How do i fix this???? I read somewhere about changing dates to 24 hours after and then re opening the app or something?? I'm not sure how this works. please help me. It's very annoying to be recieving messages and not know that i've gotten them.
Thanks.

Do you have Location Services set to on? Or just for that one app?

Return the iPhone and get your money back. It has been
hacked/modified/jailbroken and likely cannot be made
operative.

Push Notifications. The Message "Connect to iTunes to Use Push Notifications "BBC History Magazine" notifications may include alerts, sounds and icon badges" keeps coming up in Newstand, also happens with National Geographic Magazine. HELP!

I have now followed multiple instructions from this and other forums. have turned push notifications off. Turned them on. Have updated to IOS 6. Have signed out and signed back in, have uninstalled all magazines and reinstalled. Have synced, and updated everything in iTunes.
Nothing works,. Also cannot use youtube.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
It might also be a good idea to contact Square for assistance.

Push notifications for specific apps not working even though the badge updates (Facebook, Google etc.)

So this has been happening for months now. I was expecting iOS 5 to fix it, but it hasn't. Push notifications for specific apps do not work. Some come through just fine, but Facebook and Google+ in particular don't work correctly. Facebook push notifications seem to work when the notification is generated from an action performed on a mobile device (ie: someone writes on my wall from another iPhone); if they do the same thing on the desktop, the notification doesn't seem to come through.
As for Google+, I've never seen a single push notification come through as it should, even though I've seen other iPhones with the same app reciving these notifications with no issue.
This is particularly strange because the badge on the app icon usually updates (though it feels like fetch, not push), but the notifications simply don't make it into the notification center (or on the lock screen as they should). As I said, this has been happening for months, long before iOS 5, and the problem has persisted now that I'm running iOS 5.
I've checked and rechecked all notifiation settings for these apps. I've uninstalled and reinstalled them. I've called Apple support and they couldn't offer me any help. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?
Thanks for your time.

I got an iPhone 4s and I'm experiencing the same problems. I used facebook messenger, and used to get the push notifications to that app, but now that i've deleted it I no longer get the messages directly to the facebook app.
I have push on in the mail settings and notification center for facebook are on as well. I also have push notifications on in the settings for facebook.
I've tried deleting the app and reinstalling, no fix. I haven't tried a hard reset yet.
So far, I figured out that it's not iOS or the facebook app, somehow it is a problem with my account. I logged into my wife's account on my iphone and her account is able to recieve push notifications to my iphone.
Any thoughts?

Calendar Red Badge Notifications

Hi all, new iPhone user here.
Could someone please tell why I am not getting red badge notifications on the calendar icon. This is really frustrating!

Thanks,
I don't/can't have MS exchange as the set up for outlook emails as they are via BT and in pop format 9correct me me if wrong) I only meant it was a bit of a pain as I would have thought the red badge should appear for any entry put in the calendar inrespective of the service it goes though. After all does the notification come from the info stored on the phone?
As for third party apps, I was hopeing that things like RSS and twitter items would show which they don't seem to (I am using Fee RSS and Twitbit) I don't have to many subscriptions through these so red blindness would not be a problem but it would be nivce to know when stuff come in without checking periodically.
Perhaps I am doing this all wrong do you have any hints or suggestions.
Many thanks
Andrew

Push notification badge/icon doesn't go away

i got an app that sent me a push notification the other day, but i found nothing when i opened the app and checked it. The problem is the push notification badge doesn't disappear, it's been there since then. I tried disabling the notifications function, restarting the phone, deleting and then reinstalling the app, but nothing turned out to be effective. The small number there is so annoying. Anyone knows how to deal with that?
Thnx in advance!

Hey All!! I believe I have a fix for those who - like me - could not get it resolved with the steps above. I just fixed it on mine. And trust me - I tried each of the steps above several times - which SHOULD have worked but ... we are indeed talking about picky and delicate iPhones here, hehe. Ok - so ...
When the step of turning off the badge alert did not work, it got me thinking ... iMessage has several settings in the iPhone settings area. So let me play with those. And sure enough - the first setting change fixed it. Here is what ya do ...
1. Go to Settings
2. Simply Scroll Down to "Messages"
3. Turn Off the Very First Option - "iMessage" At the Top
4. Leave Settings and Check Home Screen to See the Badge Has Disappeared
5. Return Back to Message Settings and Turn "iMessage" Back On
Voila! I hope this works for some folks!!

IPhone 3GS not receiving push notifications, even all apps have sound badges and banner on...

Hello,
I had 5.0.1 on my 3GS and I thought that updating the device firmware will solve the problem so I updated the device to 6.1.3 and still the same problem.
I manually installed the persistent connection stuff and still no push notifications...
The problem is on all apps not one. Whatsapp and Facebook and a lot more.
I checked the notifications settings in setting and they are all on with banners and badges.
What should I do to get push notifications to work???

same as me. my whatsapp also not working properly. if you got answer pls help me

Sending Push Notifications with Adobe DPS

Question.
I'm testing out all the Adobe DPS and Apple options. And one of the things I would like to test is Push Notifications.
I followed the iPad publishing guide to be able to get all the certificates so that's ok. Then I was looking for a way to send
push notifications. Because Adobe DPS doesn't really have a UI environment (PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong ;-) to send push
notifications I have to do it 'by hand'. When I tested my app on my iPad I got the "app name wants to send you push notifications",
so i'm sure my certificates are working. Now I just need to send a push message.
So I followed this great tutorial:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/3443/apple-push-notification-services-tutorial-part-12
I was able to do everything and was able to send a push notification ... but I never received it. And the reason for this is because
I don't have the app device token, which is a 64 character serial number which acts as your app address. So I don't have any way of sending the notification
to my particular app. (which is a test sideload multifolio app).
Because the Adobe DPS is cloud based you don't get any code (which I love). But I think that is currently stopping me
from finding out my device token.
What I'm asking:
- Does this mean I can't send any push notifications to Adobe DPS created apps?
- If this is supported somehow, I suppose (again, correct me) I need the app device token for the created app. Where do I get this?
Thanks !

At this time, it's not possible to manually push notifications. When you enable push, only publishing a new folio displays the red badge. At some point, when third-party push is supported, manual pushes will be possible.

Push Notifications keep disabling?

I've noticed the last few days since I have updated to iOS7 and updated the facebook and twitter apps my push notifications for facebook and twitter seem to keep vanishing overnight. When I wake up in the morning I see I've had no notifications from either app overnight and they are gone from my notification center. I have to launch both apps when I wake up and I will get the pop up asking to authorize the app to send notifications and I click OK. Then I have to go into the notification center in the settings where they will now be back in the list where they always were and change back from banners to alerts.
I go through the day fine and will then get alerts sent to me all day for everyone and everything I have set them up to send to me then overnight the next night I get none again and in the morning I have to go through this all over again. No notifications all night and I have to launch both apps and get the message asking to authorize push notifications which I will OK again then have to go into the notification center to change back to alerts from the banners. At first I thought it was something with the Twitter app but now facebook has started doing it as well so I don't think it's an issue with just the Twitter app. Maybe it's because I'm still on the iPhone 4 (thank you contract agreements & not being able to upgrade) and something is glitching with it? I don't know. It's played well with iOS7 otherwise. I depend on the alerts to catch up on what I miss during the day so I really don't want to have to remember to go into these apps every morning to re-authorize the push notifications then go to the notification center to reset them to "alerts" so I don't still miss smething because it then defaults to the useless banners again. Anybody else seeing this issue?

It's not happening as frequently but it is still happening to me. I wouldn't care quite as much if Apple didn't decide to make "banners" the default. I have everything set for "alerts" so when they all go away I then have to go into every app and OK the push notifications again then go into the settings to change them back to "alerts" from the defaulted "banners". Come on Apple either fix this or at least give us the option to set "alerts" as our default notification setting. Not all of us like the banners!!! I hate them!!!
Also as an unrelated annoyance I've also now had to turn off my Twitter's badge app icon because it will constantly show a "1" now. I've deleed the app, info, changed passwords, unlinked the account, linked it back, all multiple times and it stil continues to show the red circled "1" badge app. Since that has happened since the last Twitter update I'm sure it's an issue there with their app and nothing on Apple's end but it's just as annoying.

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!

Push Notification Multi Folio without subscription

Is it possible to use push notifications in a Multi Folio App without subscriptions?
I read once that a subscription is necessary to send push notifications.
Thanks
Haeme Ulrich

It's the other way around. Push notifications are required for Newsstand subscription apps, but subscriptions aren't necessary for push. You can add push notifications to non-subscription apps. There are lots of examples, including DPS Tips. Every now and then, you'll see a red badge to indicate the number of new or updated folios.
