Update rejected, iPhone 5

So, I made an app on BT 2.0 before the iphone 5. Apple is requiring that apps be compatible with iphone 5. How do I make my 2.0 app compatible with the new screen size? thanks in advance for anything you can offer.

Option 1: Have you re-downloaded the source code for your project? (Many new code-side features have been added) Option 2: Add a [email protected] to your project file by creating a default loading image with the resolution of 1136 by 640, then going to Xcode -> Summery -> Default Loading Screens and dragging your new image into the box Requirements: I would advise using the latest Xcode (4.6.3) and building to the latest SDK (6.1). Do you have an iPhone 5 or iPod 5th Generation to test your app on? Jake

Is there just some code I can change that will fix it?

What version of Xcode are you running? Try including this one in your project, it is just a blank image, but it should allow iPhone 5 support. http://jworldhosting.com/Uploads/Images/[email protected] Jake

But, have you tried to run it on the iOS Simulator (4" Retina)? I would strongly advise this, if you do not test, it may crash. Jake

Yes, this is why I suggest re-downloading the source code. Many of the plugins will display a centimeter gap at the bottom of the screen. If you send that into Apple, it could cause you a lot of problems. Jake

Will I need to drag all my files back into the Xcode project?

I test for iPhone 5 even though I don't have one; one of the options of the simulator is a 4" retina screen... I usually just need to lower the zoom so it all fits on my screen. Cheers! -- Smug

@Njmpwnz: Yes, you will need to: 1. Re-download the Source Code 2. Drag the Plugins folder into Xcode 3. Copy all of your Media (BT_Images, and BT_Docs) into the new Xcode project file 4. Make sure your default images are updated (not the blank ones included with the download) Jake

Make the background image for the iPhone 5 dimensions, then the lower chunk will be cut off when using an iPhone without the 4-inch display.
