We currently have a predicament..
Our app has successfully gone through the certifications and is ready for sale and will launch next week.
We now realised that we want to change the icon on the home screen and the loading image which will require a re-submission…
Is it possible to do in parallel with the current app that is going
for sale? ie. can I make the change and submit the app again without
effecting the existing app.
And if the new app fails submission will this effect the existing app
that is about to be launched?
I don't remember for sure if you're allowed to submit another version of an app that's not for sale yet but I think you can. It's easy to tell, if you can there will be an "add version" button on the main page for managing your app in iTunes connect.
Assuming you can add another version, then the new version failing will not effect the approved version.
If you can't add another version, then you will have to reject your current version to resubmit, in which case the new version failing would put you back at square 0, you would have to resubmit again. Also, you would not be able to release until the new version is approved, so it's possible that even if you have no problems it wouldn't be approved by next week.

Hi guys I uploaded a game to App Store and I set the version release to be released automatically at date and time. But at that time I only got 2 mails first one was that my game is "Ready for sale" and the second one that came right after the first one it changed to "Processing for App Store". Wheres the point why wasn't my app released at the set time? They already sent me an email where they said that the game was approved.
It takes time to distribute your app across Apple's servers.
Also, using a process called app thinning, multiple versions of your app are built.
For things like the above, Apple has reserved this extra state called 'Processing for App Store'.
No worries, it won't take long, a few hours at most, before your app will appear in people's App Store.

Apple just approved my update for my app but it doesn't show under the updates page of the app store. You have to manually go to the app page on the store and there is a cloud icon that appears that will download the update.
I named the first version of my app 6.1 for some reason, don't know why. And my update is version 2.0. Is this the reason? And if so, can i change the version number of the first to 1.0.
Apple never publishes the updates / new apps right after ready for sale. You have to be a bit patient and wait for about a day or something.
Also, it does not matter how you name your app versions. It can be whatever number you want it to be. Apple just recommends using numbers that make sense but they won't do anything about it.
Hope that helps :)

I have submitted an App to the AppStore and it's awaiting review. In the meantime I'm working on adding in-app purchases for the next version of the App. To do that I need to add them in iTunes Connect for testing purposes.
I'm unsure if adding the IAP is going to somehow affect the current version (which is currently awaiting review)?
Anyone knows how to handle this situation? Must be quite common?
thank you.
Your app starts with a list of potential IAP items that are passed to the IAP sdk to get the info. As the new items shouldn't be in the list for the old version of your application, I don't see how they would impact it. If you retrieve the list from a server, you need to make sure you return the correct list for each version of the app in any case. If you don't have that logic in place, then things could get confused but it needs to be fixed anyway (imagine users who don't upgrade).
no it wont affect the app review

I just got my app rejected for having a UIWebView. I launch a search and thus the user would be able to then search for anything, I suppose. My issue is I can't figure out how to set the rating in iTunes connect. The categories they have are for violence, gambling, etc, but my app doesn't fall into any of those categories by design. How does one set the rating in my case?
I think I'm fine with living with a 17+ rating like Apple wants. I don't really want to launch safari and have users leave my app. How do I set it in iTunes connect? Any ideas?
You can only change the rating when submitting a new version. So just create a new version and upload the same binary with new rating. Otherwise you could submit the app with 17+ rating and lower it to 4+ after review.
It's part of the "Add New App" wizard that you run through at itunes connect. There is a section where you select radio buttons on questions for ratings. Since the search could potentially include content from violence, gambling, etc just put those as Infrequent/Mild or Frequent/Intense.

I´m planning to launch an app for the iPhone. I wonder if there is a way to launch the app, country by country? For example, if I first begin with the Norwegian market and after 4 four weeks I launch the app in the US. If this is possible, how can I do this step by step?
And also if the mentioned procedure above is possible, will the app appear in some kind of “new releases” in the App store, every time I add a new country?
When you go to the Manage your Apps section in iTunes Connect, Rights and Pricing subsection, you have the chance to choose the markets where your app is available (follow the link that says "specific stores").
So, you can start with making it available on the Norwegian market, then add another one at some later point, etc., by simply going there and adding more markets.
Each country has it's own AppStore, and it is true that you can add and delete the app from each country's AppStore.
As for new releases, the newly released app in each country would only appear in the new releases list for the country that you actually release it in.
