Help! Please! Question marks

My app went live today, but I forgot to add all of my images to Xcode before submitting. I do not know how it got accepted. :/ All of my images are showing a question mark, I already tried the public dropbox folder, but my images still show question marks. I copied and pasted the url from dropbox, tried it on another online tab, and it shows perfectly (so, there doesn't seem to be a problem with the link). Please, please, help.

Hi, I guess there are only two solutions: - Resubmit an update - Change the pictures in your app from the Buzztouch Control Panel to images with a URL Could you show me what app you have submitted ? Good luck

You can pull the app from the store till you sort the problem. Just change the publish date and it'll no longer be live and take a bit of pressure off you.

1) keyword search: rgv brides on the Appstore 2) I have been trying to change the pictures in my app in the buzz touch control panel to images with a URL from dropbox. I'll try for a couple more hours then pull the app from the app store. :(

Do I have to change something in Xcode when I add the public urls from dropbox to buzz touch?

Any other suggestions? I'm still searching as many forums as possible for a solution. I don't want to pull it from the app store if I do not have to. I'm sure everyone knows the anticipation felt when their first app was released. :/

Do I have to change something in Xcode when I add the public urls from dropbox to buzz touch? The Config file would need to update Via new update to App Store Or If the app is online, when the app is opened it will request an update . Fred

Begs the question, is your app offline? Fred

Thank you all for helping me. The app is online, and I say "yes" to request an update. I can tell that the difference for the images with urls and the images without urls. I just tried flicker and it didn't work either. The question mark remains.

With Flickr you must get link from your account and not from public view .

You must understand that the first time anyone ever opens your app they will not be asked to refresh, this is only after opening it a second time and from there on...So the initial download and opening of app for first time users will only show that original configuration data.

Thanks for all of your help. I attempted flickr again, and it is working, but venues, jewelry, and videography have black around the image, and I cannot understand why. The images that I dragged into Xcode didn't have the black around it. I have a "clear" background for the button. I'm working on it.... Thanks, again.

Okay, whew!!! Everything is complete. :-). Flickr works great!!! I recommend it to everyone! We have a fantastic buzztouch community! Thanks! @ianjames: Thanks for the info regarding "first time" opens after a download. I'll resubmit, so users will not see the question marks the first time they use the app. My "very huge mistake" was submitting the app without testing on my iPhone for the 1 billionth time. I had trouble submitting for days, and I think my brain was a little fried from searching on forums for days. I'm glad that everyone is here to help. I hope I can return the help one day. :)
