Updating a MULTI-ISSUE APP to a MULTI-ISSUE SUBSCRIPTION app

If I create a multi-issue app, where the customer just puchases each new folio/issue, can I update that specific app to a multi-issue with iTunes subcription at some point in the future?
Basically, our publication isn't ready for a subscription model yet but it will be early next year. We want our app to be able to offer a subscription once it is avilable without the customer having to download a new version of the app.
I assume the workflow would be:
- submit multi issue viewer app with app description/screenshots specified in iTunes Connect. That gets approved, goes live and runs as required.
- a month later, we want to introduce a subscription model.
- I build a multi-issue with iTunes subscription app, update my app description, version and add subs details in iTunes connect and submit that to Apple. That gets approved and the app is updated, now offering a subscription.
Answer musch appreciated.

Yes, you can convert a multi-issue app to a subscription app. A subscription app requires push notifications, so you'll make it easier on yourself to add push.
When you first submit your app, you may want to submit as many in app purchases as you can for pre-approval.
When you create your App ID, turn off iCloud.
When you're ready to make the app a subscription app, create your auto renewable subscription durations in iTunes Connect. You'll need to submit a new app version when you submit the in app purchases. In Viewer Builder, create a new viewer -- you can't edit the old viewer.

Hi. I've tried updating one of my apps and I received this message: "there is not enough available storage to download..You can manage your storage in settings." Anyone else having this same issue?

Well, if you don't have enough space, then there's nothing wrong, right?
You can check available space under Settings> General> About or by plugging it into iTunes and looking at the color-coded bar.

Cannot update Ricoh Multi Card Reader

Hello All,
I was updating Ricoh Multi Card Reader drivers on my W520 and the installation was not successful: It installed the driver, asked to restart PC, then I saw a message "installing new drivers". After all, a message "unsuccessful installation - device unplugged" popped up. How can I plug it or switch it ON?
I even cannot see Ricoh drivers under 'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers'.
Any suggestions how to fix that?
Thanks!

A very very good question. I will check to see what answer you get.
Drivers and updated drives as well as released BIOS upgrade should be certified and guaranteed to work. I have seen cases where that is not the case. This is a new on. I am currently holding off on my BIOS update since there is no response about the 1.41 release. I don't want to brick my MB accidentally.

Hello HusseinAlBehary,
Sorry to hear your troubles updating and downloading apps from the Mac App Store. Based on when you were doing that, it looks like the Mac App Store was experiencing difficulties. It is not currently so you should be able to upgrade with out issues now. If you experience this in the future, look at the page below to start you on figuring out if it is something on your end or Apple’s end.

Hello jaybearden,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.

When I try to update apps on my iPad mini, I tap the "Update" button, but the app just opens and doesn't update.

I have an iPad mini, 16G, WiFi only. My operating system is iOS 7.0.3. My problem is that my App Store has stopped updating apps. And it's not like the update starts, but never finishes. It doesn't start at all. I touch the "Update" button, and the app opens instead of updating. I have 9 updates now, and none of them work. And the rest of the App Store is working fine. I have no problems searching for apps or downloading new apps. It's just the updates that don't work. I had thought that maybe I needed to update my software and then it would start working, but I can't. The available software update requires 5.9G of storage, and I only have 1.6G. I also thought that maybe there was not enough forage to update the apps, but if that was the case, then it would tell me that there is not enough storage instead of opening the app. Does anyone know how to fix this? I really need to update my apps!

Hey there nstephanie0625,
It sounds like you are unable to update your apps in the App store because they launch, rather than update. I would recommend starting by signing out of your Apple ID in Settings:
iTunes: Using the iTunes Store for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Create New Apple ID on your device.
Then quit all the running apps on your phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

I updated my face book app on my iphone 4 and now it will not open, even after i rebooted the phone. help???

I updated my facebok app after the app store said that it needed to be updated and ow the app wont load when I try to open it. I have tried to install and reinstall the app and I have also rebooted the phone several times with no results

try settings>general>reset>reset network settings, i mean this sounds like its a facebook issue its self and that you would have to wait for another update, they were probably getting prepped for ios 6 and somehow this one got out for an update, they are usually pretty good about getting updates out.

I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but I do not want to delete/lose their data

I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but since the old one was deactivated I cant update them and I do not want to delete/lose their data, re download, and start all over again. Is there anyway to go around this issue?
thanks

Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

How do I install camera raw updates to the mac app store version of elements 10

In the mac app store version of Elements 10 there is 'get updates' link on the help menu. And when I try to do it manually from a download I get a message telling me that 'this update no applicable'.

Once again, Apple only provides support for purchasing issues,not with using software purchased via the app store, any more than staples will give you tech support for a boxed version you buy from them:
The Mac App Store handles the download, installation, licensing, and updating of all products purchased through it. If you encounter an issue with an Adobe product during one of these four processes, visit http://www.apple.com/support.
For all other issues, including program errors and how to questions, visithttp://www.adobe.com/support.
Apple only provides support for problems with updates released via the app store and adobe has NEVER bothered to issue updates anything offered through the app store, so you can't get any help from apple for this.
It's more complicated to install ACR in the app store version. You have to do it manually. See this thread:
