I have an iOS 6 application that I created but didn’t publish at the time iOS 7 came out, and so I went ahead and updated it to work with iOS 7. And now that I have published the appstore, the following text is in the section compatibility for the application:
Requires iOS 6.1 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPad touch.
Now my problem is that when I try to install it from the storage onto a device running iOS 6.1, I will be asked to get iOS 7 if I want to continue. Downloading and installing on an iOS 7 device works. Working on a simulator with iOS 6.1 works fine.
Did Apple launch the os update or did I miss some configuration in Xcode?
Here is what I have (and find relevant) in Xcode:
- Valid architectures:
arm64 armv7 armv7s - Base SDK:
Lates iOS(iOS 7.0)// I get no other choice - IOS Deployment Goal
iOS 6.1
All help will be appreciated if you find out what is going on here.
UPDATE 1 (October 25th):
I sent a message through the iTunesConnect portal and received a response. I was asked to tell all users who have this problem to contact customer support or contact developer technical support through the appdev portal on the Apple web page. I did the last and am updated when I get the answer.
