Blackberry vendor account still disabled - blackberry

I have registered for the blackberry vendor account since April 2013. Few days ago I received a reply email said that Blackberry can not identify my account.
To be honest, it is a pain. I provided them my passport including my full name and dob. It takes too long and now the result is.......
Anybody have any idea how to register the BB vendor account. Normally, how long does it take? I already made many BB10 apps and just waiting for this verification so that I can publish them to the BB market.

There has been a change on the BlackBerry App World lately. The BlackBerry World Vendor Portal has been updated to use BlackBerry ID.
If you have an existing Vendor Portal account, you'll be able to link it to your BlackBerry ID. You can sign in to the Vendor Portal through your BlackBerry ID. This link should be useful.

Apple Guideline - Strange rule for publishing app

I work in a App Development company, we've developed and designed an app entirely from scratch, published with our own enterprise account, but Apple reject based on a strange rule:
"Guideline 4.2.6 - Design - Commercialized Templates and App Generation Services
Apps created from a commercialized template or app generation service will be rejected unless they are submitted directly by the provider of the app’s content. These services should not submit apps on behalf of their clients and should offer tools that let their clients create customized, innovative apps that provide unique customer experiences. Another acceptable option for template providers is to create a single binary to host all client content in an aggregated or “picker” model, for example as a restaurant finder app with separate customized entries or pages for each client restaurant, or as an event app with separate entries for each client event."
We're not using any template on app and we are not a mass-app generation company. How can they say we've using templates?
Has anyone have similar problem and can help me with that?
Even though the rejection message is rather generic the main point is:
You can no longer publish apps for 3rd parties under your own developer account. (I assume that you meant organization developer account, because enterprise developer accounts cannot publish on the public App Store)
So as an agency or developer, you can still develop the app for your customer. But once it's ready, your customer will need his/her own developer account. They can invite you to the account and you can upload the app for them. Apple is also pushing organization developer accounts, so it's also no longer possible to publish company apps under individual accounts, even if you work for that company.

Publishing iOS app for another party

I was approached to build an iOS app for a company. What would be the best way to go about this when developing and managing the project?
Would I publish this under my developer profile?
Should they create their own developer profile and have them give me the credentials?
Should we get a developer account and be members of a team?
Yes!! Client needs to create their own Apple Developer Account for current and future applications.
They needs to have paid account to publish App on store. Meanwhile either they can add you as developer or share the original credentials with your so you can sign the application with development and distribution certificates for Notification and publish.
It's a one time JOB, but trust me best option for You and your Client as well.
Here is your start.
id go with option 2 .... definitely not 1 so that they 'own' the final outcome and also you want to keep your account free of external dependencies
There are three ways you can go about release an app for client:
Release the app on your account and have a written agreement between yourself and the client to forward profits from the app to the client.
Ask them to give your Apple ID access to their account so you can upload it to their account (they shouldn't really give you their credentials for security reasons.
Upload the app to your account and once its gone through the review process you can then transfer ownership of the app from your account to theirs. (Documentation here)

iOS app issue - How to resolve?

I'm trying to upload an iOS app which is developed in Phone gap, But app got rejected by saying this issue. I found same problem for few users ,previous posts .But nothing worked for me
The seller and company names associated with your app do not reflect
the name “my app name” in the app or its metadata, as required by section
1.2 of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement.
Next Steps
Your app must be published under a seller name and company name that
reflects the app brand. If you have developed these apps on behalf
of a client, please advise your client to add you to the development
team of their Apple Developer account.
How to resolve this issue?
Use client iTunes account for upload app, If client are not able to provide their login credential ask him to send invitation on your id so you can upload app from your account for send invitation login client iTunes account and go Users and Roles section and send invitation
If you enroll as an individual, the company name is the same as your
legal name. In the store, the “company name” is used prominently for
navigation and to group your apps. Your legal entity name appears as
the “seller” of your apps. For example, “Apple” is the company name
and “Apple, Inc” is the seller name. When users tap your company name,
they see all of the apps you have on the store.
Thanks for all reply .My app got approved , I have send a mail to apple review team they approved app .I think that was the Simple solution .

Validate, Sign and Upload using different accounts

I have developed an app for the client and the client wants to upload to the AppStore for the review. I want to validate and signiOS app before I give it to the client.
My question is: Can I validate and sign the iOS app using account user#example.com whereas the client will use different account client#example.com to upload the app the AppStore.
Please advise
first of all I don't think this is right forum for this kinds of questions. Is it possible? Yes, you can change owner of an app (move app to another account) any time you want. If your client gives you permission, you can even upload app to client's account using developer license.

How do you allow third party to publish your iphone app

I have a client with an apple developer account. Its brand new and we are both new to Apple.
He has paid to developer an iphone app.
The developer wants to publish the app directly to the store.
The client does not want to share login details for the account.
What options are there?
I am asking because I know on Google Play Developer console you could invite someone to manage your account (or give them publishing priviledges) by inviting them using their gmail email via the console.
Easiest solution. Tell your client to change his password and give you the new password. Publish the app on iTunes, tell your client to change his password back. If he doesn't trust you enough to give you a half-hour access to his account, why on earth does he trust you to write the app in the first place.
Next easiest solution (assumes you have a paid up account.) You publish the app on your account and mark it so it doesn't automatically go in the store after approval. Once the app is approved, transfer ownership to him. There are a whole bunch of restrictions on this process, including No iCloud, Passbook or in-app purchase subscriptions. For more details, Google "Transferring and Deleting iOS Apps" or see [https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/TransferringAndDeletingApps.html]
Next easiest solution would be to give the customer access to the source and explain to him how to build the app and put it in the store.
-- Addition --
A new solution is available now. The client could give you admin privileges to his appstore (https://appstoreconnect.apple.com) account.
The easiest solution to this funny question is to let your client share his screen with logged in account at iTunes Connect (via Team Viewer for example). You do all your job and it's all.
