Status Bar Unshackled in Netflix App

In most, perhaps all other, apps, the 'status bar' at the top of the display (showing connection, signal, time, battery, etc) rotates along with the rest of the display as you switch between portrait and landscape. In my Netflix app that's not the case.
Instead, they flip to the other orientation separately, sometimes with quite a delay before the other part follows along. In a few cases, I think all on changing to landscape mode, they never do catch up; the main display flips properly but the status bar stays in its original position, i.e., now on the right side of the screen.
Another rotation usually serves to get things matched up again. Not a huge deal, but I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this and, if so, if there's anything to be done about it?

The screen shot even shows what the email attachment looks like.
It also appears that the status bar may have disappeared in that screen shot too.
So, MP3 and WAV email attachments are supported.

  • Status Bar Disappears in Mail App

    Vonage sends me email attachments containing my voicemails in WAV (G.711) format. Although, G.711 encoded WAV's are very popular in telecom I understand they are not supported on the iPhone. I now convert these WAVs to MP3 and forward as an email attachment to the iPhone.
    When I try to play the WAV attachment from the email app, the status bar disappears (only when in the mail app).
    When I play the MP3 attachment from the mail app, the status bar no longer displays correctly (only when in the mail app).
    I must power off and power on my iPhone for the status bar to return when in the mail app. I've restored by iPhone multiple times and the problem still occurs.
    Email me, [email protected] and I'll forward the email containing the attachments.
    How can I fix this?

  • Where is status bar when running iphone app

    I've updated my iPad Mini to iOS 7 and now when I run iPhone apps I don't see the status bar (time and battery level etc).  It used to show in iOS 6.
    I see the status bar fine when running iPad apps, just not iPhone apps.
    Any ideas?

    I don't know which app your using but you can try deleting it and reinstalling it from the cloud. If it's in iPhone mode, you should see the 2x but when you switch it to 2x yes the option seems to disappear to go back to 1x when you are using IOS 7.
    I lost the 1x on one of my apps but when I removed and reinstalled, it was there again. The time was showing at the top when I reinstalled it again from the cloud.

  • Status bar disappears in iPhone apps running on iPad

    I would like to confirm whether this is considered a bug or not.
    Pick an iPhone app (for example, Foursquare) and open it using an iPad. You will notice that the status bar (the area that takes the whole app view width and that is 20pt high). Send it to background, then open the task switcher (sorry, I don't know its exact name). You will see that the preview image for that app has the status bar visible, however when you tap on it and the app is resumed you will also notice how it suddenly disappears.
    Please confirm whether this is happening to you. This annoys me a lot since I'm currently developing an iPhone app and I only have an iPad to test it, so what I am seeing is no longer exactly the same that is usually seen in an iPhone (well, a 3.5 inch iPhone). I'm using iOS 7.0.4

    Hi, I'd like to tell you a good news. This issue had been resolved by using a single line configuration in Info.plist file. After testing it does work fine for me.
    Try it:
              <key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
              <false/>

  • IPad status bar covers up my app's top  UIViews; okay after rotation

    I wrote an iPad app. When it is first started up (in iPhone simulator, or on real iPad) all the UIViews at the top of my window are partially covered-up by the iPads time/battery status bar.
    After I rotate the iPad (simulator or real one) the problem goes away: my UIViews appear shifted down, so they are under (below) the status bar. In other words, after I do the first rotation, the iPad knows to push my window downwards about 20 pixels to make room for the status bar. But before the first rotation (simulator or hardware) the iPad is not shifting my UIViews downward.
    Question: What can I do in software (during the startup logic) to get the iPad to push my window down to make room for the status bar?
    I think the iPad should do it automatically for me, but since it is not, I'm willing to take some action in the software to get it to happen. Any thoughts? NOTE: When I create all my UIViews, I'm using a coordinate of (0,0) for my upper left corner, which is correct, and after the first rotation everything works great. Also: I have auto-rotation enabled, so my app is always rotating to keep its display "up" so users can view it in all 4 rotations.

    If you're creating the view in your code, you're explicitly setting the view frame. The controller then assumes you know what you're doing and doesn't make any adjustment for the status bar (or any other bars that may be above or below the content area).
    In other words, when you explicitly set the frame in loadView, you're buying sole responsibility for the starting dimensions. In the case of an iPad with only the status bar, you need to drop the y-origin down 20, and shorten the height by 20:
    - (void)loadView {
    CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 20, 768, 1004);
    UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
    self.view = v;
    [v release];
    NSLog(@"%s: self.view=%@ self.view.frame=%@",
    _func_, self.view, NSStringFromCGRect(self.view.frame));
    Btw, if you ever open your IB, try adding and subtracting the various simulated bars while watching the dimensions of the view in the Size Inspector. If the view is the main content view (i.e. connected to the 'view' outlet of File's Owner), you should see the y-origin and size adjust for each combination of bars. In fact, those dimensions will probably be grayed out, since IB doesn't trust us with such critical numbers. The point is, that when a view is loaded from a nib built with the correct simulated bars, the adjustment for the bars has already been saved in that file.
    I think the iPad should do it automatically for me
    If you want to see what the controller does by default (i.e. no nib and no frame defined in loadView), try this code:
    // MyAppDelegate.m
    #import "MyAppDelegate.h"
    #import "MyViewController.h"
    @implementation MyAppDelegate
    @synthesize window, viewController;
    - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
    MyViewController *vc = [[MyViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
    vc.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
    self.viewController = vc;
    [vc release];
    [window addSubview:viewController.view];
    [window makeKeyAndVisible];
    NSLog(@"%s: viewController.view.frame=%@",
    _func_, NSStringFromCGRect(viewController.view.frame));
    - (void)dealloc {
    [viewController release];
    [window release];
    [super dealloc];
    @end
    // MyViewController.m
    #import "MyViewController.h"
    @implementation MyViewController
    // Implement loadView to create a view hierarchy programmatically, without using a nib.
    - (void)loadView {
    // Implement viewDidLoad to do additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    - (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    @end
    When no nib name is specified, and the view loader can't find a nib that matches the owner's class name, and loadView isn't overridden, the view controller creates a default view (see no. 3 under "The steps that occur during the load cycle are as follows:" in [Understanding the View Management Cycle|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/featuredarticles/ViewControllerPGf oriPhoneOS/BasicViewControllers/BasicViewControllers.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP 40007457-CH101-SW19] in the View Controller Programming Guide for iOS). If you run the above example code, you should see the frame of the default view takes all bars into account.
    ... I'm using a coordinate of (0,0) for my upper left corner, which is correct
    As explained above, it's not correct if there are any upper bars
    and after the first rotation everything works great.
    Yes, all bets are off after an auto-rotation. The system recalculates the content view frame in that case (though that math doesn't always come out the way you want).
    Hope that helps to unscramble things a little!

  • Iphone 4 - IO6 Problem:  My apps are stuck on "loading" - no new apps will install.  Status bar is stuck, so apps will not install.  How to fix?

    Iphone 4 - IO6 Problem:  After upgrading to the absoulte crap that is IO6, one of my apps is stuck on "loading" and no new apps will install.  If I delete this "loding app" (which happens to be iMovie), the next app that tries to install gets stuck on "loading" and every other app gets stuck on "waiting."  How to fix??

    I had the same issue and tried several options like rebooting, resyncing, deleting and reinstalling apps, restarting the network connection but none of them worked. Eventually I opened iTunes on my iPhone (not on Mac) to find that it had two pending downloads that was stopping the rest of the apps from loading fully.  You need to cancel them by swiping left to right over the listed apps and select cancel/delete. It worked for me.  Good luck!

  • Restored my Macbook Pro but my iTunes content was saved on a separate partition. When I re-setup iTunes the status bar reports 30gb less content than my iTunes Music folder. How can I find what is 'missing'?

    My Macbook Pro software was failing and the Apple Store was able to restore it without removing the partition on my hard drive that contained most of my files including all my iTunes content. Initially when I re-setup my library I simply went to file--> add to library. Shortly after I realized that was essentially copying the library to the other portion of the partition because I forgot to change the location of the library. So I deleted the content already copied & then I re-setup the library, by asking it to be pulled from the previous location using this pages advice: iTunes: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    It appeared to work & everything I thought was imported. But on closer inspection, it appears that I have 30gbs less appearing on the status bar in the iTunes app than I do when I pull up the info on the iTunes Music folder in my finder. I'm not sure if this means somehow I have 30gbs of duplicates in my finder folder or if (most likely) I somehow didn't fully import the library from that file. Any advice? Is there a way to restore iTunes to factory settings again & set it up correctly this time?
    Also I never actually trashed the original content I accidentally transferred to the other drive but when i skimmed those in my trash bin it appears they ARE indeed in iTunes, so I have no clue what didn't actually import. Any ideas?! I'd greatly appreciate it!

    You could have all the computers point to the same library but it can't be opened by more than one at any time.
    No answer for knowing which library is in use other than selecting it at startup.  This question gets asked here occasionally but I don't think it is a high-demand feature since most people have just one library.  I guess you could put in an empty playlist with the library name so you have an identifier.

  • Status bar or jlabel

    hi all,
    how can i create a status bar on my java app
    that shows a message if it is connected on the internet or not.
    i already have an application that checks for internet connection
    every 6seconds, and has a getter method that returns a
    message.
    also is this possible?
    JLabel.setText(CheckConnection.getMessage())
    where CheckConnection.getMessage() returns a String value.
    how can i make my JLabel act like it was refreshing when the string passed to it changed?
    so that my JLabel notifies my application that it is disconnected.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Create a thread that calls checkConnection.getMessage(), and sets the message on the JLabel.

  • What handler is called when a Status-Bar-Icon is clicked in Cocoa-Applescript?

    In Cocoa-Applescript Xcode, what handler is called when the Status-Bar-Icon for my app is clicked? Are there any variables or connections that I have to make?

    Thanks Red_menace! I don't know what the Apple community would do without you.
    For others viewing this question, the following is the proper format, for Cocoa-Applescript:
    property NSStatusBar : class "NSStatusBar"
    property StatusItem : ""
    on applicationWillFinishLaunching_()
    set StatusItem to NSStatusBar's systemStatusBar's statusItemWithLength_(current application's NSSquareStatusItemLength)
    StatusItem's setAction_("myAction:")
    end applicationWillFinishLaunching_
    on myAction_()
    say "Hello!"
    end myAction_
    Where "myAction:" is the action that you want to call when the Status-Bar-Item is clicked. It should also be noted that this handler will not be called if a menu or view is already linked to it's click action.

  • Stopping or Removing Status Bar Icon (Android)

    I use my phone for many things and BT SmartTalk is a small part/aspect.  And with limited screen space, I definately can't justofy another icon in the status bar and the SmartTalk App running the entire time.  I need to run t when I want then exit.
    Using Settings > Apps > Force Exit after every occasional SmartTalk call is just stupid.
    So, do BT think they are the only think on a smartphne or how to I get the app to exit and get rid of the icon
    (I have already switched the default calling back to the phone as SmartTalk is just an occasional thing).
    Interestingly, when I was doing a Google search for the answer, there were quite a few user reviews where loads of people had been saying about this daft icon - so I am far from alone in my wish to get rid of it and get the app to exit and stop using system resources).
    Many thanks

  • Big problem with status bar legibility in IOS 7.0.4

    Hi, i'm adressing this problem to Apple. I recently update my iphone 4s to ios 7.0.4 and i have found some problems with status bar visibility in certain apps. Ex: in Photo app, the status bar is dark and it is unreadable, same in Lockscreen in Emergency menu, in menu when someone calls or you call someone and in Camera app the status bar is black and overlaps with the text and option buttons of the app. Please fix this as soon as possible because it is very frustrating.Sorry for bad english :d

  • Status bar hidden on Mac

    My app has a regular window with status bar on. The app remembers the window size and position so when the user launches the app next time, the window will appear where it was. However, if the window was maximized last time, the newly launched window will be maximized but the status bar is  hidden.
    This happens under mac os x. The app can be found http://www.peaya.com/paper/download.html

    I just want to leave this picture here, showing how annoying the status bar is since the last update.
    i made this picture on my ipad mini playing the iphone game Zenonia the status bar hides half of the map (upper left corner) and the backpack button (upper right corner) making it impossible to play the game because that button is really important.
    i hope that this gets fixed someday.

  • Status bar colour

    hi all
    having read the odd thread on the matter, it appears that the status bar will always be visible, unless the app developer uses an "immersive mode" (http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z3-Compact/Status-notification-bar-is-always-on-screen/m-p/9831...)
    I do find what appears to be a intrusive blue background though for the status bar in most apps, when the status bar isn't hidden.
    However, I've noted an occasional status bar, which hasn't this hideous blue background and even the odd one which seems to have a transparent background (or just the colour of the app).
    I'm assuming the blue default background is defined by the OS/OS theme?
    If so, cannot the OS detect the colour of the app and match it, so it's less painful on the eyes?

  • Two status bar apps, giving contradictory information

    After a clean remove (with the removal tool provided by Adobe) and installing the Creative Cloud manager I was able to install my 3 most used Adobe apps...
    I was very surprised this morning to see that I now have two status bar apps (the old one and the new one) both giving me information about updates. Funny detail: The old app tells me I have updates for my apps. The new one tells me I don't have any apps installed...
    Very weird.. I don't see the point of two toolbar apps... I presume it's a huge bug or something. Ideas are welcome.
    To clarify: I do have Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC and Indesign CC installed...
    UPDATE: After loggin out and in again the new Application Manager now shows my app correctly but it still says they are up to date while the old one insist I have updates... I still don't get the advantage of two App Managers.
    Message was edited by: wimmees

    wimmees, This is actually normal. You see two toolbars, one for the update workflow and the other for the install workflow. In other words, the updater will appear when you update your application from Help > Updates option. Rest you have Creative Cloud app wherein you can check the installed apps and can install the new apps as well.

  • Is there an app that hides the status bar?  Or permits customization of it?

    I'd like to hide the time in the status bar, or replace it with other information.
    Reason: I don't like being reminded what time it is when using a PDA type device, especially not in the middle of the night if I'm reading on it.
    Is there an app that hides the bar universally, or lets one replace the time, with say the date or other text?

    Are you sure about that? Several highly regarded, widely downloaded apps, e.g., eReader, have an option to hide the status bar. The developer forums are awash in discussions about the commands to hide the status bar-- it's built in to the SDK.
    I figure someone will have put out a small program that does nothing but hide the status bar or allow its tweaking... much like StatusBar does on the Palm OS 5 PDAs...
