Anyone got a clue as to why apple keeps saying: "We found that while you have submitted In App Purchase products for your app, the In App Purchase functionality is not present in your binary. If you would like to utilize In App Purchase in your app, you will need to upload a new binary that incorporates the In App Purchase API to enable users to make a purchase Once you revise and resubmit your binary, you will also need to resubmit your In App Purchases for review since they are in the state Developer Action Required. For each IAP product submitted, please be sure to edit the detail information or cancel the request to change the detail information for the In App Purchases using iTunes Connect." --- now this doesn't make any sense to me as • All of the IAP products are referenced in the config.txt • EASY IAP functionality is working fine (tested with test account) I don't know if the issue is that some of the IAP screens is hidden and is set to become active after certain calendar dates, as they are tied to events which haven't occurred yet. as such, you cannot use the IAP until after those dates pass and they become active. but that does not seem to be what they are talking about. ...what are they talking about? Anyone know how to get them on the phone? This is my 4th week in this roundabout foolishness. sigh.. €

that is weird :/ .. maybe get someone to test using test flight? is the config file working and compiled as live? maybe download the source code again and try again? i wish i had answers. its weird because your test work. delete from your simulator and your phone and try again?

ya it works on 2 devices + simulators. And its a 'metadata rejection' not a binary rejection. which makes it weirder? last time this is what they said: "We have begun the review of your app but aren't able to continue because we can't locate the In App Purchase within your app. Specifically, the app has submitted a new set of IAP batches, but the user could not find the associated IAP features within the app. At your earliest opportunity, please reply to this message providing the steps for locating the In App Purchase in your app. While your iTunes Connect Application State is displayed as Rejected, it is not necessary to upload a new binary. Once you reply to this message, we can proceed with your review." --- so i replied and explained about the scheduling release of IAP to which they said "Thank you for your prompt response and providing detailed information about your app. However, it may be appropriate to implement all IAP features so the user can review the full functionality of the app and IAP batches for approval. We look forward to reviewing your revised application." --- so I updated the binary with all the IAP info in it. but again it will not show on screen until the appropriate time. Otherwise it will be an empty IAP (user buys screen access, but nothing is there for them to see). maybe i should put a 'thanks for buying - but check back in a week' screen? (ridiculous) €

did you actually upload your in app purchases from the itunesconnect developer control panel when you uploaded your app package?

upload? u mean create them and submit for review connected to the binary - then yes. otherwise... no. not sure i follow what u mean? this was the process I used: 1. create IAP product in ITC 2. add product id etc stuff into BT builder so it is in config.txt when creating app package. 3. submit them together through ITC is there an actual download from ITC i should be adding to the xcode package? €

No.. you've done it correctly nothing more to download from ITC. I guess double check to see if the files exist in the archive or the app folder? its mysterious though

which files? ...should i be looking for?

I haven't worked with IAP yet, so I can't weigh in. But Good Luck! Cheers! -- Smug

I had a similar problem with them locating my iAPs, my problem was the config.txt file, although it was working perfectly on my device it wouldn't work on a device that I hadn't used before. Maybe re-downloading your project source code from buzztouch should make it right... I guess..

Oh...closing the circle. Seems the issue was..they didn't like IAPs being setup if the content wasn't available in the app already. No future scheduling of IAP turn ons. So I deleted the ones..not ready for primetime..and they let it through. Wish it didn't take a month the figure that out :)
