Are you saying that you're watching a video and listening to music at the same time?..

Nah, just play a video in iPod.app, stop the vid, go back and play a song, and then press the home button so it can play in the background... iPod will quit on pressing the home button.
 
I'd say that if I looked at two UDIDs registered to one account, one in California and one in Kentucky, that it would be safe to say that they had absolutely nothing to do with one another, and I'd shut down the account.

I'm sorry, this made me chuckle since I live in the US and am a legit beta tester for a company based in Russia. Your pretty stupid, lol.

Yeah, coding and creating websites / programs isn't one of those jobs you need to be all together... can be done at home and separated, may not always be better though
 
How do I

Hey all,

I just registered as a developer and I was wondering once I add people's iPhone's to the registered users how do they get the beta version? Do they also legally have to have an ADC membership for it to be legal and not violate the NDA?

I know for me I can just log in get the file and update if I want too but I'm just curious how that works for other devices on your account and couldn't find anything on the site about it.
 
Sync issues with iPhone 3.0 beta 2

I am using Vista on a PC and am still having sync issues with my iPhone 3G? Anyone else having these?

  • Long time to sync
  • Icon in sidebar says sync is "not happening" after a time that I was used to in 2.2 but ......
  • Phone says sync is still going on iPhone
  • Main page for iPhone in iTunes says it's still syncing

Any ideas? Is it the beta issue or a corrupt database or something else.

Cheers
 
You guys really need to be cautious about who you use as "beta testers".

My thought on the whole idea of "hooking people up" is...what if these "testers" break the Apple agreement that you, the "$99 developer", paid in order to become privy to 3.0 Beta?

Since the beta testers are, in Apple's eyes, legally part of YOUR TEAM, won't that come back to you, the registered developer and put your own account in danger of being revoked?

Just something to think about in regards to the JJ Giveaway of 3.0B.

Could someone tell me if this does or does not make sense?
 
On mine, it's not when i save, it's when i try to return to the signature to edit it again, can you confirm?

Youre absolutely right. If I create my signature, leave, and then go into th Mail app, my sig is just fine. Its when I go BACK into the edit, that it reverts to "Sent from my iPhone". Still, Im calling it a bug.

Sidenote, how are these 3.0 bugs reported to Apple?

Yeah. I'm seeing this too.

And this. Relatively minor, but still a bug.

There's a "bug reporter" button at the bottom of the ADC dev forums.
 
what???!!!

Copy & Paste

What???!!!! Thats All That Matters To Me. Cant Believe Its Finally Happening I've Been Waiting For This.
 
Hey all,

I just registered as a developer and I was wondering once I add people's iPhone's to the registered users how do they get the beta version? Do they also legally have to have an ADC membership for it to be legal and not violate the NDA?

Read the terms of your license agreement. It says clearly that you can give copies to members of your development team and nobody else. If you have an individual membership then you are a "team of one". In that case, you can't give the beta to anybody. BTW. An NDA covers what you may tell others and what you can't. Giving out copies of the beta version is covered by copyright law; in the USA giving someone an illegal copy can get you to court, and you could be ordered to pay statutory damages between $750 and $150,000 per copy made (and recently a jury found $200,000 for an individual copying 24 songs a reasonable amount of damages).

Registered users can use your app with 3.0 features as soon as 3.0 is publicly released and they can download it through iTunes. ADC membership (non-iPhone) doesn't make a difference. If they are registered iPhone developers, then they can get the beta themselves.

I don't think that is true. There is no geographical clause to the NDA that states all beta testers must reside in the same location. It's perfectly logical for an individual developer to have people on his team that live all over the place. It's painfully easy to collaborate over the web.

An individual developer (one who got the $99 individual membership) cannot have anyone on his team anywhere. Check out the iPhone dev portal: As an individual, you cannot add anyone to your team. With a corporate membership for $299, you can add any number of developers to your team, and there is no restriction to where they live (except the usual restrictions, like North Corea).
 
Okay, so I tried something else with iPod.app:

-Reboot
-iPod: play song
-Exit to home screen, iPod.app plays in background
-iPod: play movie, "done" movie (to replicate bug)
-iPod: play song
-Exit to home screen, iPod.app crashes and quits
-Plug in iPhone stereo headphones
-From home screen, pressed on the headphone button (to play song from iPod.app outside of the app)
-Audio from previously viewed movie plays in background
-Tap iPod.app
-Movie resumes in portrait mode

so far, the only way to fix this bug is to reboot.
 
Hey all,

I have legitimate access to the iPhone OS 3.0 Beta2 through the Apple Dev Programme.

It mentions that upon installing the iPhone OS 3.0, the phone cannot be downgraded anymore, previously I was informed by some users that one could in fact downgrade.

Devices updated to iPhone 3.0 beta can not be restored to earlier versions of iPhone OS . Devices will be able to upgrade to future beta releases and the final iPhone OS 3.0 software.

So what's the deal here?

Apple is lying to you, pretending to make it impossible. I believe that it has already been done.

Are there any instructions I could read through? I'd like to be informed of how hard/easy it is to downgrade before I upgrade. (I only have one device which I want to use for testing as well as developing and can't afford to have it die on me or become unstable).

I've successfully downgraded an iPod touch and a first generation iPhone, but none of those have a modified baseband so they're relatively easy to do. On the other hand, the iPhone 3G's baseband gets upgraded during the 3.0 upgrade process, so downgrading causes unpredictable results... lot of users complain about 3G cutting out frequently or not even getting a data signal at all. If you have a first gen iPhone, I'd use that for development.
 
Another silly question, but if my phone is registered with Apple, then, when a new Beta is released, my phone won't suddenly expire on me if I am out of the house somewhere right?

For the 2.0 beta builds Apple put expiration dates on them. When the OS expired the phone was unusable until you installed the newest beta. At one point the beta builds did not overlap and the devs had unusable phones for a day or 2.

So yes, it's entirely possible you'd get a non-working phone running beta software if it expires.
 
I havent, I've never used call forwarding.

The icon only started appearing as I updated my phone to 3.0 beta 2, it now happens when i turn the phone off and then back on again.

Maybe the network has set fwd to voice message by default when switched off/network coverage, again this is a wild guess.

Since its happening to only one or two users, should be reported as a bug to :apple: me guess.
