Apple just rejected my app again, for the same reason, complaining that
my code regarding background audio Is incorrect, even though it is
identical to yours. This time, I have challenged them to discuss this
issue on the phone.

What does your info.plist in the app look like?
OPTION 2: You bumped up against an less than expert reviewer. If your plist
looks correct then challenge them. I have done that in the past when I was
sure they were wrong and they acquiesced. If that does not work then go to
arbitration.
I feel your pain... Let us know how it ends.

Subject: Re: iOS app rejected five times because of background audio setting
Thanks for the info, Ralph. I had figured out the exit-on-suspend issue
previously. In my last app submission, I completely removed the entire
section in the info.plist file which referenced UIBackgroundModes, but they
still rejected it on the same claim that background audio was enabled. This
tells me one of two things: there is some other file in the standalone that
is referencing this function, or, by completely removing it from info.plist,
this effectively defaults to enabling that function.
I am hoping that the precise code I included in my previous email is the
correct way to disable background audio in info.plist, and that there is no
other file other than the info.plist that needs to be addressed.

After reading closer:
1) Make sure that the "Background Audio" is un-ticked.
2) Do the "plist hack" as enumerated in my last email.
3) This is all I do and have never been rejected for the "Background
Audio"
issue.
4) I have never tried to submit to the store with v9. This might be a
v9 issue.
<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>

Seems to be correct.

Subject: iOS app rejected five times because of background audio
setting
I have gone back and forth with Apple five times in an attempt to get
this setting correct. I made the mistake originally of enabling the
background audio option in the iOS standalone settings area. I was
trying to prevent the app from exiting when the user switched to a
different app. I know that this setting solves that issue, but it also
caused Apple to reject my app because I was not including any background
audio.
I have since realized that the correct way to deal with this is to
modify the "exit on suspend" clause in the livecodescript file. But
after creating a new standalone and submitting it to Apple, they keep
telling me I am still referencing the backgroundaudio option. I tried
making changes to the info.plist and settings.plist files, but I can't
seem to get this right.
I just downloaded a fresh copy of LC 9.0 and created a new standalone.
When I look at the info.plist file in the standalone, this is what I find:
<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
</array>
Is this correct? Is this the way the code should read when the
background audio option is not being used?
Thanks for any help with this,
Richard Miller
