iOS Question UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key in the Info.plist ?

[Nicolás Cieri]

An error has been reported by Apple in my post made with the latest version of B4i (6.8).

When I test my application on an iPad (Debug and Release), it works perfectly, the only difference was to release with the latest version of B4i.

This is the error...

We were unable to install the app on iPad. The UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key in the Info.plist is set in such a way that the app will not install on iPad.

Next Steps

To resolve this issue, please check the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities key to verify that it contains only the attributes required for your app features or the attributes that must not be present on the device. Attributes specified by a dictionary should be set to true if they are required and false if they must not be present on the device.

'Orientation possible values: Portrait, LandscapeLeft, LandscapeRight and PortraitUpsideDown
#iPhoneOrientations: Portrait, LandscapeLeft, LandscapeRight
#iPadOrientations: Portrait, LandscapeLeft, LandscapeRight, PortraitUpsideDown
#Target: iPhone, iPad
#ATSEnabled: True
#MinVersion: 8

Thanks.

Are you sure that you haven't set #DeviceCapabilities ?

 

[Nicolás Cieri]

Yes Erel, I'm sure.

In fact, it is exactly the same project that I uploaded to the Apple Store earlier with the older B4i version without any problem.

You can check the generated plist file under: Objects\src\B4iProject\B4iProject-Info.plist.

Any idea? I think it seems normal. But Apple rejects it.

 

[Erel]

Can you post all the #attributes?

That's all

I don't see anything special here. Maybe you set some special capability in the identifier page in apple developer console?

Worth asking the reviewer for more information.

 

[Nicolás Cieri]

Ok, I will try again .. and if they reject me again, I will ask for more information.

Thank you

 

[Nicolás Cieri]

Very strange, I have not moved absolutely anything from the code and now it was accepted.

Thank you.
