Jonathan, Are we running? For the next person who is trying to solve the same problem, it would be good to let them know how it ends. On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 10:03 PM, Mike Kerner wrote: > I'm pretty sure you can't do it while it's still in the applications > folder.

Re: Is there any way at all to have a mobile app simply resume rather than restart?

I'm pretty sure you can't do it while it's still in the applications folder. You have to command-drag it out of the applications folder, first, before you modify it - at least I do, anyway. On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 5:57 PM, Jonathan Lynch via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote:

1) Go to the Applications folder 2) Right click on the LC app you are using and select "Show Package Contents" 3) Navigate to the "Tools/Runtime/iOS" folder 4) Right click on all the device/simulator folders one at a time and select "Get Info" 5) At the bottom click on the "Read only" to the right

I don't actually know how to do any of the steps for this - would be easy on a pc. Researching it now. Sent from my iPhone > On May 24, 2017, at 4:27 PM, jonathandly...@gmail.com wrote: > > I read that on the forums, but I defer to Ralph on this. > > I am playing with the hack now. > > I

Re: Is there any way at all to have a mobile app simply resume rather than restart?

I read that on the forums, but I defer to Ralph on this. I am playing with the hack now. I think I could also have a legitimate reason for playing audio - changing the music as a user gets closer to a marker - but that would be a lot of trouble to set up right now. Sent from my iPhone > On

Re: Is there any way at all to have a mobile app simply resume rather than restart?

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I have at least a couple of apps I built in 8 that still use the hack. On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 3:54 PM, Jonathan Lynch via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > It looks like the plist hack is not available in version 8. > > Choosing background

Jonathan, This works in V8/V9. I don't make a copy. 1) In the app bundle look in the folder ==>"Tools/Runtime/iOS" set all the folders to read/write. 2) Edit the setting.plist in each of the folders and change UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend key value to "False" (or like I do...delete the key all

Re: Is there any way at all to have a mobile app simply resume rather than restart?

It looks like the plist hack is not available in version 8. Choosing background audio works - but that means I need to have a plausible reason for having background audio or Apple reviewers might ding the app. What a pain - why not just allow it to work the way other apps work? Sent from my

The other thing to remember is that you will have to command-drag the LC app out of your Applications folder, modify it, then put it back (you can't modify an application in the applications folder). On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 3:43 PM, Jonathan Lynch via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>

Re: Is there any way at all to have a mobile app simply resume rather than restart?

If you're referring to ios, look up "plist hack", here. The only thing to remember is that for each version of LC, you have to perform the hack, again, until Edinburgh gives us a Standalone Settings option. On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 3:22 PM, Jonathan Lynch via use-livecode <
