I want to create a new app on developers portal and link it to an existing company page.
When I start writing the company name (Remotesome) it just says:
No companies found by that name.
I expect the company to be found there - it's a newly created company page and I did not create it - could this be the problem?
What am I doing wrong?
As of today - I can add the company to the app. For some unknown reason it did not appear before but now it does. So it could be that it takes some time - up to 7 days for it to appear.

I have recently started to use FireBase to see how it works, as a possible replacement (at least in some cases) for Parse.com.
Here I have a few questions related to that.
1) I noticed from start that an app was automatically built for me. Am I allowed to change its name?
2) I now would like to create a second app. Is that possible or do I need to upgrade my account? Or how do I do? I can see no place in the dashboard for that purpose.
Thanks in advance for any useful indication.
To answer your questions:
You can change the name but not the url of you app. In your dashboard click on the cogwheel next to the name of your app, in the menu that pops up there is an option to change the name.
You can create a second app by simply filling in a name in the gray field on the left and click "CREATE NEW APP"
I am building a group IM app (like GroupMe), and I want to allow users to invite new users to the app by adding them to a group, so when the new user installs and opens the app, they are automatically added to the group.
I have most of this implemented, but I cannot figure out how to pass data to the installation so that I can add the new user to the group.
Is it possible to trigger a custom action upon installation?
Right now I'm texting invite URLs that forward the user to the App Store:
http://appstore.com/appname/appname
If I add parameters to the end of it, how do I retrieve them in the app code?
I have been researching but maybe I'm just looking for the wrong thing. I found "deep linking" frameworks like http://applinks.org/ but this doesn't seem to help with custom invites.
I am not able to create oAuth client ID for my iOS app.My app is not create in Apple iTunes App Store because i cannot enter AppStore ID. Here i am attaching two screen shots.First one is create client id form and second one is my error screen shot.How to solve this issue?Please help me..
I am getting error like this....
This a new issue with new google console and happening for around last 10 days for iOS. To solve this for now, go to old console and try with same way you did earlier.
This is the URL for old console(carefully look ?noredirect, this is needed.)
https://code.google.com/apis/console/?noredirect
Given the following scenario:
An affiliate link is clicked to route the user to the iTunes App Store
Shouldn't matter if the link is clicked on the device itself or on a Mac/PC.
(Whereas the links are those links from LinkShare for instance)
The app is then being installed on an iOS device.
As soon as the user starts a certain action (for example buying in-app-purchases), this action will be logged together with the original Id of the affiliate ID, which made the user install the app.
The goal is to be able to track "converting users" (aka conversion rates) in dependance of the affiliate. Example: "60% of the users brought by Affiliate XY converted from non-paying to paying users".
What would be the best practice to achieve the above?
Pretty much every campaign analytic service should allow you to set this up just fine. One I know for sure does as I set it up last week for a project is
AppsFlyer: Mobile Apps Installation & Conversion Tracking
In issue 101 of iosdevweekly there was a Tapstream promotion so I took a look at that and they look like they'd do the job fine as well:
Tapstream: App Marketing, Unified.
If neither of those look perfect, here's a bunch of other competitors you can check out too.
I want to open iTunes with list of all the apps by a particular developer or company and in this very case my own applicaitons.
The problem is I don't know how should the URL string be
itms://itunes.com/apps/xxxx
what should I replace this xxx with ? and where would I find this text. Is it the company name? If so, should I look for it in developer account's profile info.
What else could be used? I heard there is some artistId or something like that. If so, how do I find it?
Well if you know the developer or company that you're looking for beforehand, you can use Apple's iTunes Link Maker web utility to generate links for the appstore (or any store really). You just put the developer's / company name in 'Search' field and set 'Media Type' to iOS Apps (or whatever you need). After the search is completed click on the appropriate result link under 'Artists' and you'll be presented with a sheet containing a link like this:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/vasileios-akoinoglou/id339374807?uo=4
Note that you can safely replace http:// with itms:// so to avoid a redirection (if you use http then the link is first opened in Safari and then in Appstore).
As I can see from the link the components after artist is the developer / company name (whitespaces are replaced by dashes) and the id I think is the enrollment id (edit: it's not). I hope that this will be useful to you.
The iTunes lookup API will also help in this case - simply replace the adamID for any app in the following URL:
http://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=524731580
In the results, look for the artistViewUrl to determine the best URL to link to all apps developed by this Seller
Your URL should be in this format for the AppStore app to open it on iOS:
http://ax.search.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/search?media=software&term=ideal%20development%20aps
This basically performs a search on a term in the appstore. it is the only bulletproof solution we have found, but it might be problematic if your developer name accidentally matches another developer or product. Also note that sometimes the search fails, in which case the AppStore app needs to be closed completely.
