I get the same behavior but the details are different. I can only get it to work on iPhone devices and the simulator home screen comes up when I try to switch to any of the ipad devices. The app crashes and always starts in iPhone 4s. I reset the simulator but nothing I try allows me to test on an i...

I have the same situation using

Livecode: 7.0.1
xCode: 6.1.1
OS: 10.9.5

I would like to start using test flight as well

Mark Thanks, that clears things up. :D If you have put large files into the documents folder, which become obsolete after an update, you probably should have kept those files in the engine folder. No, just put a few preference files and progress data in the docs folder. All the app assets (audio and...

Thank you Dixie and Jean-Marc After reading Jean-Marc's response, there is still something that puzzles me. Specifically for an Update. Let's say you wanted to swap out some artwork that is stored in the engine folder. Does the old file in the engine folder get overwritten if you use the same MyImag...

I am about to release an update to an app that has preferences and progress data stored as text files in the documents folder on devices. It just occurred to me that this might erase all progress data. Actually, I'm not sure if it will or not. I could just release the update and wait for complaints ...

App-y New Year everyone Here's to a feature rich, stable and robust LiveCode in 2015. I just switched over to version 7.0.1 stable from 7.0.1 rc4 and my player controls stopped working. Huh?... Using them to play mp3 audio files on desktop and mobile. Is anyone else having problems with their player...

I am using LC 6.6.2 on a mac and I am using groups a lot of groups and sometimes groups within groups. It is starting to act up when I reorder objects within a group using the project browser. I wonder if that has something to do with it as well. If I can ever see a pattern in the the crashing I wil...

I've been creating a simple login system for an app and I got it to works perfectly ... in a stack all by itself. the login uses one datagrid to hold a list of current player names. It also allows name changes, and profile deletes. The player profile data is saved to flat txt files. It uses one data...

Hi I acquired a RunRevLive.14 Simulcast ticket through the HTML5 crowd sourcing campaign and was wondering which talks would be recorded. I wish I could attend in person but alas I don't have the budget this year. I was hoping to see Day 1 Top new features from Ben Day 2 Well Behaved Behaviors from ...

Thanks Gerry

I see the line I need.

mobileControlGet (playerID,"duration")

and of course all the other supporting code to make that line work. I will try it tonight in my app.
thanks a bunch for your quick help.

cheers,

thanks Gerry

That is a start but I am getting stuck with the actual line of code. Does anyone know what the line of code would be to get the duration of an audio file on iOS? I just can't get it too work and debugging iOS is a nightmare

Hi I can find duration and use what I need on the desktop with put the duration of player "sentence" / the timeScale of player "sentence" into tSentenceDuration and the dictionary says that duration can be used with iOS platforms but I can't get it too work dictionary example put (the duration of me...

I set up a remote database on a cheapo web hosting site and used the % wildcard to allow access to the databases. Probably mistake number one. Then I used regular LC scripts to connect to the MySQL databases with the PW and username etc in the LC app. Mistake number two? Then I pass data back bad fo...

I sympathize with you Nigel. It has been a long difficult road to even get to my limited understanding of data grids. I thought I would ask a further question about showing/hiding a delete button in any given row and then having that delete button delete the row it's in if pressed. I asked in a diff...

Gerry Thank you for your help with toggling a delete button on/off in a datagrid. I got the button to show for only the first row and never for any of the other rows. I tried placing the script you posted in different locations all over the place but with no success. I have spent hours going over th...
