Can't add friend as developer/tester: "There was a problem getting data for the application you requested..." - facebook

Trying to add an associate as a tester/developer of our application in sandbox mode so they can add the app and test it. When they go to confirm the developer app request, they get an Application Error dialog box that says:
There was a problem getting data for the application you requested.
The application may not be valid, or there may be a temporary glitch.
Please try again later.
The app works fine for us in dev mode when authenticating as the administrator, but what do we need to do to add additional users as developers and testers? The error message is not particularly insightful. Any help appreciated.

I had the same problem and i solved by temporarily disabling the Sandbox Mode

You should try using groups - if you add the desired people to a group and add that group to a "role" in the developers app - there is no confirmation - no questions - no problems :P just gets added and all group members are awarded correct permissions :)
I really love that feature!

exit the sandbox mode and then try to accept request. It worked for me. Facebook while accepting the request is looking for available application

Adsense - "An unexpected error has occurred. Please try again later. [or-ieh-01]"

My Adsense was working fine since last 7 years. One fine day I tried to change the bank account from Individual to Company bank account. Since then I am getting the error - "An unexpected error has occurred. Please try again later. [or-ieh-01].
I have tried-
Submitting the valid documents for the new bank account.
Reverting to the old working bank account (with the valid document for that account).
Deleting both the accounts and then try adding any of the bank account.
Neither of the above worked. Now my earned amount is stuck and I cannot use other Ad providers also as they required Google Ad Manager that is linked with a working Adsense account.
Please help me resolve this issue.
You're not the only one. Unluckily this is a known issue since mid-2021 and still unresolved. The cruel truth is, that there seemingly only exists a generic answer to this issue:
Try the path described on the official GooglePay issue fix site. Do exactly as demanded and double-check everything. In most cases that will work.
If that doesn't work contact the GooglePay Support. That's meh but you probably won't have another choice.
Or you might, as written in the official issue post, "try to use another form of payment or bank account for now".
You have my sympathy :-/
Edit: As mentioned in the comments below further ideas would be:
In case you're using it, disable VPN while you're using GooglePay as it seems to lead to conflicts.
Associate a new mail address.
Not sure, how esoteric that is, though. Those ideas came up after talking to friends and some web research.
Have you tried disabling adblocker and trying again?

Creating Sandbox Accounts Not Working

When creating sandbox accounts through the developer.paypal.com dashboard, either individually or with Bulk Account Upload, the accounts that should only have a bank account are not created correctly. When I look at the account profile there is an error notice: "We experienced some issues on our end while creating this Sandbox account. Please delete it and try again." It was the same one that I was getting on all accounts created without a hard enough password. There is no payment methods in the created accounts. I can log into the accounts and they appear to work fine except trying to add payment methods to the "Wallet" does not work. Is there anyway to find out the actual error or get around this bug?
I believe this is an intermittent issue and clearing cookie and cache on your browser will help.
If the issue still persist, you might need to file a ticket via https://www.paypal-techsupport.com/app/ask and provide all the relevant information (e.g: screenshot of the error message, browser information, etc). Their technical support will check this for you.

Unable to login to Paypal sandbox [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Please login to use the PayPal sandbox feature
(5 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
DISCLAIMER: This question is specifically for the Paypal forum.
I have two Sandbox test accounts. parijat_kalia#hotmail.com (PERSONAL) and parijat_kalia-facilitator#hotmail.com (BUSINESS). The second one has the API credentials and I am using the NVP API to test our e-commerce subscription plan
. The response I get is :
10501: Invalid Configuration This transaction cannot be processed due to an invalid merchant configuration. Occurs when the billing agreement is disabled or inactive.
Hence, to activate it, I presume I need to log in with this sandbox account into the sandbox website so as to activate the billing agreement. The steps I follow are pretty basic.
Login to developers.paypal.com
Click on Applications tab in the horizontal menu
Click on Sandbox accounts in the vertical menu
Click on the specific accounts 'parijat_kalia-facilitator#hotmail.com' dropdown arrow button.
Click on Sandbox site
When i click on sandbox site, it loads in the PERSONAL account in the email i.e 'parijat_kalia#hotmail.com'. I obviously change this and try to login with the business account credentials. However it does not log me in whatsoever. I have changed the password, literally copy pasted it, but it does not work. Nor does deleting the cookies/clearing the cache and terminating the history help. Also, I am using Chrome, not IE.
Also, I presume this error is with Paypal's sandbox website, since the API call is technically logging me in with the credentials (I infer this since I am getting error 10501).
Can you please tell me what is going wrong?
I had an issue similar to that the other day. I was trying to switch from one developer account to another, but it kept logging me in as the first one. So, I couldn't use any of the sandbox accounts for the 2nd account.
I circumvented this issue by switching to private browsing mode in chrome (ctrl+shift+N) and logging in that way.
I can't guarantee this will fix your issue because it's not the same as mine, but it might help.
Misplacedme's answer worked for me, but I don't have enough rep yet, so I'll reply and add some info.
Chrome: Use an Incognito Window (ctrl+shift+N)
Opera: Use a New Private Window (ctrl+shift+N)
IE: No need for special window. It works as it used to.
Firefox: No need for special window. It works as it used to.
Safari: No need for special window. It works as it used to.
Note: These are all on a Windows 8 PC (sorry, I know most people in their right mind aren't using win8 much less developers)

Facebook Developer Account Verify

I created a new Facebook account and verified it with my cell phone. I even see "Your mobile phone has been successfully verified." in https://www.facebook.com/confirmphone.php address.
So, everything seems perfect.
Then, I became Facebook friends with my friend (he is also verified and already created an Application). We are trying to add ME as an ADMIN for this Facebook Application from HIS account.
Even though both are completely verified by phone, HE canNOT add me as ADMIN for that application. He is getting
Only verified developers can be added as listed developers of this application. Read http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=17580 for details.
message all the time.
We waited more than an hour just in case the Facebook system did not recognize my new verification.
In fact, I even tried removing the phone number and get verified again.
None of above did work and still getting the message which does not allow me to become an Admin of the application.
Could you help me?
Thanks in advance
I've heard of people having all kinds of problems with the developer section of Facebook.com
One resolution seems to be to log out of both accounts and log back in again.
It turns out that, facebook itself does not accept my account and thinks it is duplicate account. And in order to make them believe the Facebook team want me to provide these below:
Our systems indicated that your account may not be authentic based on
a variety of factors. If you believe you are being prevented from
creating apps by mistake, please reply to this email with a digital
image of your government-issued identification. Make sure the
identification you provide meets all of the following requirements:
Must be government-issued (e.g. passport, driver's license)
Must be in color
Must clearly show your full name, date of birth, and photo
If possible, please save this file in JPEG image format.
I dont know why they are making such a huge problem.
In my case, I used phone number to login my account and hadn't any email attached. after adding email as a primary contact I was able to verify my developer account.

iPhone Store Kit "Cannot connect to iTunes Store"

I am working on adding In-App purchases to my app.
I am able to receive the productsRequest:didReceiveResponse method, and receive the array of products.
My problem arises when I add a SKPayment to the SKPaymentQueue. After I add the product to the queue, in the paymentQueue:updatedTransactions method the transactions always have the state SKPaymentTransactionStateFailed.
I NSLog the "transaction.error" and this is what it returns: Error
Domain=SKErrorDomain Code=0 UserInfo=0x165000 "Cannot connect to
iTunes Store"
I have logged out of the Store in the Settings app, but after trying to purchase a product in my app it never asks me to log in with my test account. It just fails with the above error.
I was getting SKPaymentTransactionStateFailed error code 0 "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" and thanks to thomax for this answer my problem is solved. Turns out you MUST enter a build number under Targets->Summary.
I spent the last 24 hours resetting my phone, screwing with iTunes connect, and doing just about everything i could think of before i stumbled upon this solution.
I assume you've done the standard sanity checks: double-checking your code, confirming your product IDs, comparing your code to the In-App Purchase Programming Guide, etc.
This may be ridiculous, but -- if you're certain your code is correct -- do a hard reset (full wipe) of your iPod (Settings => General => Reset => Erase All Content and Settings). I puzzled over this exact problem for hours -- it turned out my code was correct and the hard reset was the solution.
I had been getting the same error but I had been prompted for my test user account. And also a popup saying "An unknown error has occurred". It turns out that when I created my test user account and signed out of the settings -> store I had decided to sign in with my test user account which had prompted me for a bunch of information including billing, which had broken my test user account. When I created a new test user account and only signed in when prompted to during the in app purchase testing, everything worked smoothly.
This error (i.e. "Error! Cannot connect to iTunes Store") can occur if you do a sandboxed In App purchase but are signed in using your normal Apple account.
I find it helps avoid any confusion if I sign out of my Apple account before doing any In App purchases. Then in the "Sign In" dialog choose the "Use Existing Apple ID" option and enter your Test User details.
Just remember this will be set in your Settings so you will need to sign out after you've finished In App purchases.
Also, using a different Apple ID resets various iTunes-related settings such as iTunes Match.
You can check if the following link is working or timing out:
https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt
Alternatively, an unscientific but quite reliable way to check if the sandbox is working is to ask at:
https://devforums.apple.com/community/ios/connected/purchase
If the sandbox is down, there will probably be people already talking about it, like now (18 Jan 2012, 6:40pm UTC time).
I also was facing with the same error.
I figured out, that the Error only comes on the Simulator, when I switched to the device debugging, the error didn't appear.
Simply log off from your AppStore account on settings...
Solved the problem for me because my device was logged using my regular Apple ID and because the purchases on the sandbox are always done with the test user ID, the device was trying to send my regular Apple Store ID to the "test" App Store resulting on this "Cannot Connect to iTunes Store" error.
This is the most common cause I have seen on my device.
Hit with the same problem, i reset my device, cross verified the identifiers, re-installed the app. Also thought the problem was, because I had changed the reference and the description of the products. In reality, I feel it is because my test user had got locked as multiple people where using the same account, and it is a possibility that the password validation failed multiple times.
So I re-created another test user and in-app purchasing is back to working.
Hope this helps. I was totally stumped with this error.
Make sure your BundleIDs match. That was my problem.
Even a full restore did not resolve this problem for me.
After calling addPayment for an auto-renewing product identifier, about one second passed before I received the "SKErrorDomain Code=0" error from StoreKit. At no point was I prompted (as Apple's documentation suggests one should be) for an iTunes Store username and password; the transaction simply failed.
To resolve this, I had to add a fake "consumable" product to iTunes Connect and call addPayment using the fake consumable's product identifier. This caused the iTunes Store dialog to come up. I then logged in with a test account I had created in iTunes Connect. This succeeded: my application was notified that the consumable had been purchased.
After having done this, I was able to call addPayment with my auto-renewing product identifier and purchase the subscription normally.
make sure you're testing with sandbox user accounts created from itunesconnect and not your actual apple id for your personal account when testing this stuff.
I thought it worth mentioning that DonnaLea's solution of only logging in when prompted for payment also worked for the same issue with Unity and Prime31's StoreKit plugin.
Attempting to log in via the same settings menu you use to log out will prompt for all manner of billing\address details which seems to permanently "break" that test account.
I found myself in this situation when I was working on adding in-app purchases and didn't do it exactly right the first time. In my case I had an error in server-side PHP and as a result I think I wasn't getting all the way through to "finishTransaction:". Even after I fixed the problems (I put the program on a separate device and purchased successfully), I kept getting "You've already purchased this, click to download" followed by "Cannot connect to iTunes Store".
I finally got it to stop doing that by launching the game from Springboard (not XCode). It immediately processed the transaction successfully and stopped prompting me to redownload.
This is similar to the accepted answer above. I started getting the "cannot connect to iTunes store" error when trying to log in to my iTunes account on my phone after logging in with an IAP sandbox account.
To solve the problem, I was able to just do a Reset All Settings instead of Erase All Content and Settings (Settings => General => Reset => Reset All Settings). Definitely better than having to lose and reinstall everything on your device.
I had had the same problem, first of all I haven't created test account so I created via getting help from this link
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/SettingUpUserAccounts.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40011225-CH25-SW10
Then You need to sign out from your current account on your device. and buy purchasing it will ask for user account, then enter the test account.
I had this same issue. I had previously created a test user account, and signed out of the itunes store expecting to be prompted with a sign in for my test user account when I made the in app purchase. instead I got the cannot connect to itunes store message. when I signed in with my real itunes username/password and tried my test app it worked perfectly. I then logged out of itunes store again and my app worked great, prompting me for my id/pw
I had the same error, but the problem was not exactly the same. Maybe usefull for someone:
I inserted an external file in the structure of my app. The reason why I did this is because in production, I insert this file dinamicaly from a server, but in development I thought it was faster to use an app called iExplorer to paste this file. I have done this is the past and I didn't have this problem. But in the last few days, if I paste this file directly using iExplorer, my app returns the error: "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". (in spanish: "No puede conectarse a iTunes Store").
I think that it is because this time I inserted the file inside the .app folder. So this makes me think that if you modify your .app folder in any way, the Codesignature breaks and the link with the iTunes Store stops working directly.
For me, the problem was fixed by uploading a binary. Since that answer was not given in this page, which seems to be among the top hits in Google, I thought I'd add it.
Figured I should share my recent experience with the same issue:
I experienced the same problem a few days ago, where it stopped working from one day to the other. I got the following error after having authenticated with my test user(s): Error Domain=SKErrorDomain Code=0 UserInfo=0x165000 "Cannot connect to iTunes Store"
I hadn't done any changes to the code and we couldn't think of any other changes to our iTunes account or IAP products that might've triggered the problems. The only thing that may have been related was the adding of more iTunes Test Users (although I've added ~15 accounts before without problems). I tested it on different devices and the simulator.
I went through all the available checklists and all possible solutions (everything mentioned above as well) without any success. Finally I figured I might as well take a break from it all over the weekend, since I was drawing blanks. And oddly (and for the first time ever), doing nothing actually worked!
I didn't change any code, nor did anything change on our iTunes account or the app.
The only reasons I can think of are:
Something was wrong on Apple's end.
Some other time-based factor with the app, a certificate or something caused the problems.
A leprechaun snuck into my office and fixed the issue.
Check if you are signed into your personal itunes account in the appstore. If you are you will receive this message. Even if you are signed into your sandbox account in the app. So, to resolve this issue sign out of your personal account in the app store and then try to purchase your in-app item and then use your sandbox account. This resolved my issue.
Well, as usual I "tried all solutions available and it didn't help" :)
So, here is my input to this unlimited collection of stumble stones:
If application is not currently on sale (at any reason), this error occurs.
I got the same error,
When I called SKProductsRequest's start method in my test env,
It ran in
- (void)request:(SKRequest *)request didFailWithError:(NSError *)error
When I called in my production env,
It's correct and ran in
- (void)productsRequest:(SKProductsRequest *)request didReceiveResponse:(SKProductsResponse *)response

I had had the same problem, but I solved by the following mode:
- I was using iPhone 5S emulator with iOS 8.4 (This is the most important. Apple Store connection is not working on iOS 11 emulator)
- on emulator I turned on the following setting: Settings/Developer/Allow HTTP services (This is for internet connection)
- temporarily I turned off Avast antivirus Web Shield (This is for internet connection too)
The In-App Purchase FAQ has this information:
Cannot connect to iTunes Store
The "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" issue may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
The sandbox may be unreachable.
Your app does not have a bundle version (CFBundleVersion). See Setting the Version Number and Build String for more information.
Your app is running in the Simulator, which does not support in-app purchase.
You are attempting to purchase a product that is unavailable for sale. See Query the App Store for product information before presenting your app’s store UI for more information.
In my case, the error occurred because I was using the simulator.
Even in the In-App Purchase Programming Guide says to use the development iOS device has a suggested testing step.
As Apple's Documentation:
Cannot connect to iTunes Store
The "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" issue may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
The sandbox may be unreachable.
Your app does not have a bundle version (CFBundleVersion). See Setting the Version Number and Build String for more information.

I have tried all what I can to deal with this issue.
Real device not Simulator.
New registered Sandbox test account (not fill the extra info to make it a formal Apple ID)
Logout whatever accounts related.(iCould, App Store, maybe other app's sandbox testing account)
Fill all the tax and Agreements in itunesconnect website
Even restore to factory settings LOL
...
always return SKErrorDomain Code=0
“Cannot connect to iTunes Store”
...
My case's solution is finally come tome after 3 days' struggle:
And finally I find the key. Try with another device to test the iAP if your device's iOS is iOS13.4.x!!!And I upgrade this ”broken“ device's OS version to iOS14.0.1, iAP works like a charm.
