Rejected by Apple because does not include features that require persistent location

We do not understand why the app was rejected by apple when we made a simple adobe AIR SDK update, this is the same app thats is on the store for the past two years.
Can anyone understand what is the reason?
We found that your app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently.
We noticed your app declares support for location in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location.
It would be appropriate to add features that require persistent use of real-time location updates while the app is in the background or remove the "location" setting from the UIBackgroundModes key. If your application does not require persistent, real-time location updates, we recommend using the significant-change location service or the region monitoring location service.

FIXED (for our project at least)
What the apple reviewer actually meant was that iBeacon was being enabled for the project but the info.plist didn't declare the use of location services which didn't make sense to them, I guess that implementations of iBeacon only make sense to apple if location services are used in the implementation. The problem with our project was that a third party ANE declared usage of iBeacon without us knowing anything about it and that was causing all the trouble. We contacted this third party and they updated the ANE. The game is up in the app store now.

My mac book pro does not install updates that require a restart of the computer

I have a macbook pro and any update that does not require a restart works perfectly, but if an update requires a restart (as most do) the computer will restart and the progress bar on the update will get stuck on "writing files" without moving on from this phase. I have even let the update try to install for up to ten hours and it still stays in the same phase. Any ideas?
Thanks

Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu.
Repair permissions and restart your computer after each installation.
If there are multiple updates listed in SU, what I do is install 2 at a time, repair permissions, restart computer & install the next batch of 2. The max is 3 that I will install all at one time.

Rejected by Apple because of iBeacon even though we are not using such thing

Hello all,
We are developing a game using Adobe Air and were rejected, here's the rejection letter:

It says "We noticed your app declares support for iBeacon in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location." but our info.plist file declares nothing of the sort, the file is attached at the end of this post. Upon further investigation we discovered that the following libraries, included by the compiler, declare UIBackgroundModes=[location,audio] and listeners for iBeacon:
flexSDK/lib/aot/lib/libDebugger2.arm-air.a
flexSDK/lib/aot/stub/UIKit.framework/UIKit
The declarations can be seen if you look for the words UIBackgroundModes and beacon in the files.
Is there any way not to include the declarations for iBeacon in an adobe air app that doesn't need it?
Can you guys help us out?

TOC does not include hyperlinks in export to PDF

I created an eBooklet in Pages, but when I export it to PDF, the TOC does not include hyperlinks to the pages. There aren't any signs of the TOC including links in the original Pages document, either.

The iWork '09 DVD can be had at Amazon. You will need to apply the Apple IWork 9.3 updater to bring the applications to their last revision, and compatibility with Mavericks and Yosemite. The help menu in Pages ’09 v4.3 has a link to the that specific PDF user guide. The Number '09 guide is there too. The Keynote '09 PDF User Guide is here.
Pages v5 documents are not directly backwards compatible with Pages '09. You will need to export the content as Pages '09. Since Pages v5.5.1 is lacking nearly 100+ features that were in Pages '09, you must take care with opening Pages '09 documents in Pages v5. It will filter out content that it does not support (e.g. linked text boxes).
Any double-click on a Pages document with both applications installed, will default to opening in Pages v5.5.1. Deliberate effort is required to open Pages '09 documents, either by the Pages '09 file chooser, or a two-finger tap (on your Air) to bring up the secondary menu that has Open with > Pages (4.3) on it.

Workshop IDE Build does not include all files

We have property files also which we want included as part of the build process
but if we use the IDE build it does not include them. We have to therefore export
the IDE build and customize it to include *.properties like this
<zip basedir="${dest.path}" zipfile="${ejb.outputJar}" encoding="UTF8"> 
<zipfileset dir="${project.local.directory}" includes="*.properties" />
</zip>
which causes a problem for us because the exported build file is specific to a
user's local PC and cannot be used in a team environment.
How can we have the IDE build include all the files within a project i.e. include
properties files also.
Thanks
Mindy

Hi Mindy,
Why not in EJB?
Yes there is no argument as to why property files cannot be copied over from EJB
project.
The reason is that Workshop has not implemented the feature with EJBProject. We
have that feature only for Java projects and not for EJB project.
Thanks a lot,
Vimala

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked.

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked. I replaced it twice and replaced my router and DSL modem but no luck. I spent hours on tech support with both apple and my ISPs with no luck. Any ideas? Is the Apple TV a donation to apple? I have had the device for 8 months but it will not work for longer than 15 minutes before it drops with network errors. All of my other devices work perfectly on the network including 2 iPads, laptops and an old wii. I love apple products and this is the first real disappointment I have had. The Apple TV seems like a major dud of a product.

Seems unlikely you have had two faulty replacements, and more likely that there may be some network compatibility issue or problem with reception in the location the AppleTV lies - anything close to it that might be interfering?
I am assuming you are connected via wifi - if you can try an ethernet connection to rule wifi issues out.
Could you try it at somone else's house maybe? If it worked there it would point to something specific at your location.
You could try replacing it again I guess or seeing if they can offer you credit or a refund.

I owned an Apple Tv and since I upgrade my internet to higher speed my Apple Tv does not work. Please someone help.

In most scenarios you shouldn't need to forward ports, however if you need to, you may be best contacting your ISP.
As with most router issues, I would recommend that you contact your ISP with details of your problem (assuming that it was your ISP that provided it to you).
There are simply too many manufacturers with different software features and settings and often different names for such features and settings, that the best advice will likely come from those that are knowledgeable about your particular router.
Make sure your router/computer allows access over the following ports

Apple TV does not sign-in to YOUTUBE

My Apple TV does not accept to sign into my Youtube account. I get a message "This account cannot be used in this Apple TV. Try a different account. I tried a different account. It didn't work. I restored and resseted my Apple TV. It is still not working. Can you help please?
Model MD199B/A
Apple TV Software (5.3)

Mystery to me, too. See my similar item above. For a couple of years it has always worked on my two Apple TV's.
I've just found the YouTube web site help (with some searching) says YouTube now doesn't support the YouTube app on Apple TV's. Really? What's with that?
Apparently there are some complicated two-part verification methods to sign in, but it is puzzling why this situation has just changed for no apparent reason. These methods are included in other items on this forum, but seem unnecessarily complicated to me after years of no problems.

Hi Mick2291,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

Hi,
I am sorry to hear that you're having trouble in locating 'Multimedia' tools in Acrobat.
Acrobat X Standard does not include most of the interactive object tools. You need to use Acrobat X Pro for those features. Kindly check the comparison matrix at:

Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

Why apple tv does not sell in hong kong?

appletv's only sell in countries where itunes have rights to sell movies and tvshows
so if your kong kong itunes store dont sell such data they don't sell the appletv
likely because they sell them at a price where they lose money but depend on rental and buying of media
to earn back those lost money but they can only do that if they have rights to sell and rent media in the place

Rejected by Apple because does not include features that require persistent location
