Why has an age rating of 17+ been set for the iPhone App

I tried to install the Firefox Home App on the iPod Touch devices (12+) of my son but due to the age rating of 17+ it wasn't possible. After changing the age rating on the device I was able to install it directly to the devices but not via the iTunes progam on my PC?!

I believe this is because of the restrictions Apple imposes on IOS developers. Any application that has a built-in web browser (like the Firefox Home app) must be rated 17+. This makes little sense because Safari does not have any warnings and it is also a web browser that can access the same exact websites that Firefox Home can. Opera Mini is also rated 17+ because of the web browser. This is insane.

  • I'm getting the error message "Photos folder syncing has been disabled for the iPhone my iPhone because the folder "Pictures" cannot be found."

    I'm getting the error message "Photos folder syncing has been disabled for the iPhone <my iPhone> because the folder "Pictures" cannot be found." lately.
    Normally, all I do with photos is move them from my iPhone to my computer's (Windows 7) hard drive. I do this by connecting the iPhone with the cable, a box pops up on the screen asking me what I want to do, and I choose "Import pictures and videos". I've previously selected the "delete photos from the device after move" option (or however it's worded...), simply because I don't want this device to fill up with photos.
    Lately, it has been importing the photos fine, but it won't delete them from the iPhone. This used to work just fine, now it doesn't work and I don't know what changed, if anything. In iTunes, I get the error message I list at the beginning of this message.
    How do I fix this?

    Hi there scarbo59,
    You mentioned that you are still able to import without issues, but you may still want to run through the troubleshooting steps outlined in the article below.

  • For iOS the ipad version shows the folio that has been published, but the iPhone app is not.

    I am responsible for handling the apps and not at all involved with or know how the folio creation process works.
    When I build the app for iOS the iPad version shows the folio that has been published, but the iPhone app is not showing the folio.
    Is this something related to the build process or how the folio was created?
    The folio also shows up in the Android app (at least the phone I have tested with).
    Thanks,

    "Android and iOS viewers have different requirements for displaying folios. Any folio size you create can appear in an Android viewer. The articles are scaled and letterboxed as needed. However, on the iPad, the viewer displays only folios with a 4:3 aspect ratio. The iPhone viewer displays only folios with a 3:2 or 16:9 (1136x640) aspect ratio."

  • HT201303 I have been billed for the same app twice

    The app doesn't cost much ($0.99) but it still irritates me that this "glitch" or "error has occured.
    I do not insist on a refund but i would appreciate it if apple would look into this mistake and fix it for the future.
    Thank you.

  • Why has some of my purchased music been deleted off my iPhone 5 and how do I get it back?

    When I first got my phone I bought some music off iTunes and now I can't find old songs I used to have but they still appear on my iPad. Please tell me how I can get my old songs back onto my phone! I have tried to manage my iCloud too.

  • Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

    Photos from the Internet will not load correctly. I get white boxes with blue question marks inside. This has only been happening for the past 3 weeks so I'm not sure why it is happening.

    Yes - email &amp; text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks.  If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?!  I've rebooted the iPad &amp; my wireless card several times but neither action helped.  Have any clue what I should do now?

  • Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.

    Why has the "Job" movie been loading for the past 3 days?  I have a 10Mb Uverse Internet connection.movie

    It should not take more than 4 hr.   Is there any indication it is making process?  i.e.  When you click on it to play do you get a message like "Will be avialable in 2hr 34 min"?  Is that time changing?  I would cancel the download.  Restart ATV and then retry.  If it goes more than 4hr then there is an issue. 
    As another option you can always download the movie to your computer and use the iTuens menus to play it from your computer under the Computers icon.

  • Why has the Facetime application been removed from the iphone in dubai.

    Why has the Facetime application been removed from the iphone  in dubai??

    You will have to contact the government to find out why they ordered it removed.  An iPhone purchased there can never have it added back in, even in a country where FaceTime is legal.

  • MDW Disk Usage for Database Report Error - A data source has not been supplied for the data source DS_TraceEvents

    Hello,
    On the MDW Disk Usage Collection Set report, I get the following error when I click on a database hyperlink.
    A data source has not been supplied for the data source DS_TraceEvents
    SQL profiler shows the following SQL statements are executed (I've replaced the database name with databaseX)
    1. exec sp_executesql N'SELECT
    dtb.name AS [Name]
    FROM
    master.sys.databases AS dtb
    WHERE
    (dtb.name=@_msparam_0)',N'@_msparam_0 nvarchar(4000)',@_msparam_0=N'databaseX'
    this returns zero rows as databaseX does not exist on my MDW central server, but is a database on a target server (i.e. one that is being monitored and uploaded into the MDW central server).
    2. USE [datatbaseX]
    this produces the following error:
    Msg 911, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    Database 'databaseX' does not exist. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
    why is the report looking for the database on my server?
    thanks
    Jag
    Environment: MDW (Management Data Warehouse) on SQL 2008 R2

    Hi Jag,
    Based on my test, while this database is offline, we will encounter this issue. This is because that while we click the certain database in “Disk Usage Collection
    Set” report, it will query some information with that certain database. If this database is offline, we will not access this database to acquire related information and generates this error.
    Therefore I recommend that you check the status of this database by using this system view:
    sys.databases. If it is not online, please execute
    the following statements in a new window to make this database to be online:
    USE master
    GO
    ALTER DATABASE <database name> SET ONLINE
    GO
    If anything is unclear, please let me know.
    Regards,
    Tom Li

  • Microsoft Word Has Not Been Installed for the Current User

    Hi, everybody
    I'm just starting our attempt to put together ZfD app packages for MS Office 2007. I've tried 2 different route with poor results for each. I'm looking for guidance and suggestions and, hey really, the simple final solution. :)
    Objectives: Each app package will install locally one of the Office apps (e.g., Word) if it is not installed and then launch it, otherwise it will launch it. It gets installed locally to the C: drive using all the MS default choices, but runs from the desktop ZEN/NAL shortcut. All desktops are XP, not Vista or W7.
    Routes tried and failed...
    1) Simple app, uses distribution and run scripts to figure out if already installed, then installs using network shared drive and config.xml file for just the one app. The result ought to work -- no particular error in the package, those are fixed -- but what happens is something different each time with the MS setup.exe, and it never does complete without its own error (various and different each time). So, this appears to be completely unreliable because launching MS's setup.exe from a simple app is unpredictable and incomplete.
    2) Snapshot of a successful setup.exe and config.xml install. This ALMOST works... well it does in fact work but the snapshotted app gives an error once it finishes launching -- "Microsoft Word Has Not Been Installed for the Current User" -- and exits. From the research I've done on this message, the MS program sees the "wrong" Windows profile on the destination environment, compared to that in the snapshot, and figures it's now been installed from a bootleg copy of Office 2007.
    At this stage all I can think of is expletives. We've paid for everything, I've followed all the usual and customary steps, played by the rules, been polite (and also used the necessary computer swear words), and now I just want to insult everyone in Microsoft's marketing department for ruining everyone's life yet again. Can't we just do this, is it too much to ask!?!
    Please help me. What is really going to work for distributing and maintaining Office 2007 apps using our ZfD environment? ALL USEFUL SUGGESTIONS WELCOME. Thank you. Bless you.

    Be strong as a ship and wise as a whale

    These questions are really best in the Microsoft Office Forums.
    These are MS Office Questions not ZEN Questions.
    Novell did not design Microsoft's Office Install.
    I have nothing against snapshots, but it does not work great with the Office
    installs, which you yourself know since you are posting here with problems
    based on that.
    And your other method you are trying with the break out is not working well.
    We also know that from experience.
    We can tell you that the way most people install it and the way most people
    succeed doing it, is by doing it the way recommended and designed by
    Microsoft.
    ZEN does that just fine.
