I have implemented iAds as in Ray's Tutorial. It was showing sample adds in the development build. I made a app store build, and upload it on app store.
Now apple approved it and I downloaded same build from the iTunes. When I am running app there are no adds shown. I checked the iTunes connect for iAds network settings. its showing it is live. does any one has any idea why this is happening??
Everything is probably fine. The fill rate -- the percentage of requests for ads that are fulfilled -- is pretty low for iAd usually (last time I checked, the fill rate for my app was less than 20%) and it's not supported in every country. If you're in a country that has inventory, if you keep trying you'll eventually see an ad.

I recently launch a n iPhone app, with iAd on it. I simply dragged a banner to the app, which should be supposed to work. However, after several hours of app being in app store, the app cannot display adds on my testing iPhone. Anyone encounter similar problem?
Please verify that you have properly filled up the Bank and Taxation details and also agreed to Paid application license of the Developer account.
These are the common issues with iAd not displaying on app store application.
I just released a universal update to what had previously been an iPhone app. But it's only showing up in the iPhone section of the store, even when I search for it on an iPad. It does have the little plus sign indicating a universal app, and it does load the right screenshots for the iPad, but it doesn't show up in the iPad section of the store.
Do I need to do something?

Might want to wait a day or two. It should show in both sections, but every change in AppStore takes some time until all balanced AppStore servers get an update.
I integrated iAd in my application which got approved by Apple. I downloaded the app (FREE) to my device and ran it. For some reason instead of displaying real world ads it still says "Test Ads". Anyone experience this issue? The app got approved yesterday maybe it is too early to get the ads but I think Apple should not show test ads.
It seems like Apple will always display TEST ads on the machine it was tested on.
Hey, make sure you delete the binary you used in testing off of your phone, and off of iTunes if you distributed that way. The phone will see that the version numbers are the same, and skip some of the code upgrades. Once you reinstall from iTunes, you should be good to go! Congrats on getting the app out into the store.
I implemented adWhirl ads in my iPhone app.
During testing ads showed great from all networks, including house ads.
I released the app, I have active users (because they submit high scores)
But... No income showing in network reports and when I use the app, no ads show.
Did I forget to flip a switch somewhere?
Thanks!

Please excuse my utter stupidity...
I forgot to set up the C Flags in my target's build settings to indicate that it is the lite version...
My application got approved yesterday. before they start reviewing test ads were showing up on my app (device), but as soon as they start reviewing ads stopped showing on the device.
My app is finally approved and iAd is enabled, but i haven't seen a single ad since yesterday. Does it take some time after app is proved until my app starts receiveing ads? i checked itunes connect and it shows 0 requests.
Any idea why I'm not receiving ads?
iAds will show test ads until Apple approve the application. Once the application is approved, the iAds will be switched to live.
You didn't mention your location...
As far as I'm aware, iAds are still only showing for users that live in the USA. Even then, the fill rate for iAds have been shown to be around 10-11% (not very high at all).
This means that for every 100 ad requests received, only 10 or 11 are going to actually show an iAd. the other 90-89% will show nothing.
Hopefully the fill rate will start to improve as Apple's ad inventory increases in size.
The other issue is that it seems the iAd framework will not show repeat adverts. That is to say that once a particular iAd has been shown, it won't be shown again on that device for that session (the length of a session is vague too...).
So, check your location, check your current fill rate on the iTunes Connect iAd section.
Check if you have any requests in itunesconnect->iAd.
If you don't have any requests, there's probably something wrong with your code.
Does the test ad show up when running in the simulator?
The fill rate is low as mentioned before. Did you use the code that apple needed you to use as in the delegate and all for not loading when there is no iAd. If so try downloading the app onto your device and run it a few times. See if you get no ad at all
I had this problem with my app at one point too. I was using Mobclix to serve iAds. I was getting other ads, but none from iAd. Eventually, I realized my problem was that I did not have the iAd Framework linked to my project. That made the ads show up perfectly. I ended up weak linking the iAd Framework because I had to support devices with OS < 4.0. Hope this helps!
