I do custom iOS development for small companies. These companies have me completely manage their apps. The problem is that these companies apps show up on my company's App Store Account. Example: There is a mix of apps on the "More from this Developer" line.
I would like a way to manage all the apps I create in one itunesconnect account but have the apps deployed in such a way that they do not appear to be related and the "Developer" appears to be my client instead of me.
Is there a way to do that?
The purpose is to hold down the pain of switching accounts to manage the release cycle of the apps.
Each company will need to setup their own developer account (as an organization account) over at https://developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/
After that, they can invite you/your Apple ID as an admin and you can switch teams on App Store Connect / Apple Developer Center. With admin rights you have full access to setup everything for those customers and they also retain all IP, analytics data etc.

I am installing AppA from CompanyA in my iPhone via TestFlight.
I am installing AppB from CompanyB in my iPhone via TestFlight.
I have my iPhone UDID to CompanyA, CompanyB. Would it be possible for CompanyA that CompanyB's app is installed in the device or vice versa.
Well if both the Company are using different TestFlight account (which is obvious) they cannot get the data.
In TestFlight, you create teams and add Apps to that.
If the team member has developer or leader role he can have access to
Upload and distribute a build to a team
Delete apps and builds
Invite or recruit members to a team
View SDK data associated with a build
Promote/demote testers/developers
Access the team developer site on TestFlight
Respond to feedback via the developer site
Access analytics for live applications
At testflight website Dashboard the data is present
User Device Last install Update Status
Please note the Device UDID has to added while building the app.
Other than the dashboard no one can have the information of which users have installed the apps.
So if both company are using different TestFlight accounts and they are not having a common team member with developer or leader Role, your installation information is safe.
Dashboard information image:
No, it is not possible. Company A will not get any information about Company B's app on your device. Any information that is private to you will not be accessible to any third party.
no one can see which apps you are accessing in u r phone even it is companyA or companyB that udid will be use full only to install apps when they are developing. no one can track your phone with UDID.
I currently use my #.edu email address as a Google Apps login, and I have a Google Plus account, Google Docs, a Youtube account, Google Finance, and many other Google Apps products tied to that #.edu account profile.
My university is currently planning on moving it's entire .edu domain and email system to Google Apps for Education. How will this affect my current solo Google Apps profile? I know that domain owners can specify which Google Apps products I could login to. Will my Youtube account and all its content be destroyed?
You will be given the option on your next login to either:
Delete your previous account
OR
Rename the 'old' account to a new email address (e.g. sxflynn#gmail.com)
I am not sure what will happen to your solo Apps account once your university moves to Google Apps. But here is a link which may come to rescue you in terms of data at least.

I want to know how to create/add an application in Facebook as a developer?
I tried from Facebook developer, but after click create new app, I have given app name and name space, but it shows one pop regarding you can't create app because of no authentication. so I can't move up. I don't know how to overcome this?
Is there any way to add an application to Facebook?
You'll have to verify your Facebook account as a developers account.
You can read about it here - https://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=167551763306531
Basically there are two options. You can verify your account
via mobile phone
by adding a credit card to your account details.
Don't worry - they do not charge your credit card - it is only to be able to track back applications to "real" people so that they can be held accountable for "bad" apps that violate Facebook's terms of service...
We have developed an application for a company who want to release it under their own account. It has been developed on our account and has had provisioning profiles attached to it from our own account. What is the best way to do this? Do I have to send them the xCode project and talk them through how to attack a provisioning profile to the project? Or can I just get their login details and create a provisioning profile from the Mac in the office and do it for them? Or is there a "transfer to different account" option?
Many thanks!
To answer your last question: Apps cannot be easily transferred to another account (when already available at the App Store).
But both of the other suggestions would work: An app is not tied to an account until you submit it via iTunesConnect. So you can just use provisioning profiles from another account to build the app for submission. Of course, you can do that in your office, using the credentials of the customer, or you can just hand over the project and let the customer do the submission.
I have created a iPhone application and got successfully approved by apple. The application has been uploaded in my company's developer account.
Now my client wants access to see the sales report. I cannot give him my company's developer account log in details because the account has many applications other than my client's.
Is there a way to allow access to my client to see the financial reports for his applications alone.
What are the alternatives available.
Update:
My client is particular that he wants to log in and see.
As per my knowledge, the only way he can see the report details is if I had uploaded the application using his own developer account.
One of the developer says,
"We will submit the iPhone application to app store from your iTunes appStore account. SO you will naturally have the access to all the available data. Please note that you need to buy a paid account for submitting the application to app store"
Does the iTunes appStore account mentioned above refers to developer account or is it different
If your client does not already have a developer account, he needs to enroll into the Developer Program and resubmit the App through his Developer ID. This will require an annual $99 fee to maintain access to iTunes Connect.
There is no "Sales Report Viewing" account... Apple will pay HIM for the sales of the App, not you. It sounds like you are paying Him now for his App sales from iTunes Connect.
If it's his App and you simply did the programming work, then you should have submitted it through his Developer Program plan in the first place - not yours. He should have given YOU access to iTunes Connect through his plan to submit the App, or have done that work himself.
Next time, you'll need to build this level of detail into the contract - specifically whether you will be paying him a monthly commission on sales, or he paid you for your time and the App is now his to manage with Apple.

One idea: you could make a modified version of AppSalesMobile that has your iTunesConnect username, password, and the apple ID of his particular app built in, but didn't display information about any other apps, and build him a copy for his phone.

Might be easier to just send him the sales in an email every day, though.
