I am not a developer myself, but conceptually our App has run into an issue.
We have several hundred installs of our App with "Allow" permissions granted to our current domain, which serves the functions of the App... but we are now moving our webservice and App to a new domain for reasons of better marketability (the new domain name is better).
Since we will be offering the exact same service, just under a different name, we would like to migrate the service of the App without having every end-user re-register and "Allow" our App, OR be able to rename the App on the Facebook end (essentially "skinning" or whitelabelling it under the new name).
Is this possible?
Just change the App Domain in the application settings section in http://facebook.com/developers - Keep the old domain and add the new domain as well(just type the domain name, hit enter and then click on save button)
The application will then start working on your new domain without any code change :)
Hope it helps.

I recently acquired a domain while buying a logo and some business cards through logomaker.com. I took this opportunity to claim the domain that I want to use for my rails app on heroku (Was this a mistake?).
Currently I seem to be required to use Weebly to edit the site for this new domain (But I'm thinking about transferring the domain to my GoDaddy account for simplicity. Is this a good idea?) I'm trying to route the simple domain to my rails app. In other words, I want users to be able to type mrzschool.com and get routed to mrzschool.herokuapp.com. I haven't been able to find a way to do this through Weebly.
I also have access to DNS and nameserver settings, such as imap and pop, through logomaker.com. This seems like it might be a way to change the routing, but I'm realizing that I'm unschooled in the realm of domains and DNS.
I'd suggest you go through the the process of moving your domain registrar from logomaker to your goDaddy account, were you can keep an eye on this domain along side any other domains you've there. It's a tedious process but worth it in my opinion. However, it's optional since you have all the control you need to do that via logomaker.
The heroku docs mentions (found here) how you can point your own custom domain to your heroku app subdomain. Keep in mind that you will need to verify your account and your ownership of the domain.
You will also find some useful troubleshooting steps here.
My teammate is seeing a "Failed to push application, host taken" error even after I have added her as a user on the domain I have created.
One thing I noticed is that the Roles field for the domain shows only Manager, Auditor and Billing Manager. I have enabled all of those.
I have added my teammate as a Developer in the particular "Space" where the app runs.
I believe you can only use the same url (host and domain) connected to two different apps in the same space. In this case, you will get round robin between the two apps. If you want the team mate to replace the existing app, she needs to push her app to the same app name and the same space as your original app
Try adding a unique word at the end of your application name. By default, the application name becomes the first part of the url - which needs to be globally unique. .mybluemix.net
Also, please make sure she is logged into the same space as the existing app.
I work at a moderately sized company and we currently have Citrix Xendesktop 7 tied in with our AD and domain. We have 25 clients we're having employees test right now via the Web Storefront.
Everyone can log in with their domain credentials fine enough, but the image treats every session as if it is a brand new Windows session whenever they first log in for the day (First-time user prompts for Adobe Acrobat, Word Processor, no initial file associations, etc).
Besides having everyone log directly into the main desktop image to save their profile, how would I go about configuring the applications so they don't treat everyone as a brand new user during each session? (I remember someone saying this could be accomplished through the registry settings but I couldn't pull the thread back up for reference).
I'd suggest Citrix UPM and use group policy for folder redirection. You may just need to configure the settings for your environment. You can then have mandatory or unique profiles set.

When we specify a domain with a country suffix such as .au (domain.com.au) the input when creating the app profile (MyApps/Create New App) is rejected. However if we specify a domain with just .com as the suffix then it works fine. Is there a way around this? like a workaround? Does the app profile need to be accurate from the start or can we change it later?
App profile doesn't need to be accurate from start. In the development env, you can use dummy URL(like localhost.com).
I am doing some dev work for a client. She has a Dev License should would like to put the app under but since she is non-technical it has been frustrating since she has to be the one to submit the final app.
Is there a way for a Dev License to have multiple Admins? I have it configured so I am a developer but as such I cannot do the Distribution License. Only she can do that. Is there a fix?
If you have a good relationship to your client, you might want to ask her for her login details so you can do it yourself.
There is one other possibility though: For a similar problem I was given the advice to build & archive my app and send the archive to the client. He could then resign the app using his certs, which would eliminate the need for him to do all the building stuff, not to mention it will spare you to surrender your source code. However, this will not eliminate the need for your client to enter all the meta information and so forth while uploading the app.
For the necessary steps to resign an app, see this answer.
To answer your original question: Each developer account has exactly one Team Agent. So you need some kind of workaround anyway.
There is only one administrative or Team leader per developer account. So you really need to plan on the policy for sharing use of that account from the beginning, if the required activities of the agent need to be split up among multiple parties, if you can't have one party capable of doing everything.
A shared account can be created from the beginning (either by the owner or the developer). I recommend an ADC account be created just for this purpose, instead of just using the owner's personal account and email address ( e.g. instead of mary.smith#sample.com, create and use iosdeveloper#sample.com for enrolling as an iOS developer. )
Account credentials can be "loaned" (perhaps with password changes after use).
You can be given remote access (VNC/RDP) into the owners PC or Mac (or more secure yet, a VM session) as or after they log in.
You can talk the owner though the process over the phone (or video chat, etc.).
Or, the owner can learn how to get certificates, and build or resign and submit apps themselves, perhaps using a comprehensive script.
