I have not submitted an application yet, however am wondering if you guys could share your knowledge and experience on the subject and tell me if my plans will work or not.
The app I have created has a registration process in the app itself that updates the applications cookie which keeps it registered. Thus in its initial stages the application will be locked and the user will then have to register on my site which will be a subscription based payment to keep the phone working.
Do you think apple will allow this? if not what suitable alternative are available.
I think you should be fine as long as you follow the review tips:
Providing Additional Info for the App Review Process
If your application requires specific settings, user registrations or account information prior to submission to the App Store, be sure to include that info in the field "Demo Account - Full Access" on iTunes Connect. This is a text field visible only to the App Review team, so the information entered in that field will not be viewable on iTunes to the general public. You can also include general instructions or other relevant information about your application which you think would be useful for the review process.

Let's assume that somehow my company manages to get the Developer name changed in the Developer Account at the App Store. In this case, what would happen to the existing apps:
Will the existing apps remain happily at the App Store without any effect?
Will I need to get new certificates from the Developer portal?
If yes, will I need to submit a new build of my Apps to the App Store?
If yes, will the bundle identifier of my subsequent releases would be different?
If yes, then how would the users be able to get updates to the apps?
Any help would be great!
I asked about it here, and we made renaming.
Non of our apps were forced to be resubmitted. We used all certificates with old names and it worked fine. I can't provide info about legal information that we send to Apple (not a coders did that), but one day we just saw another company name in the App Store and we did nothing to our apps.

I created iPhone app that requires the user to register and log in before open the app.
This application has been rejected from App Store and they gave me this message:
We found that your app requires customers to register with personal
information to access non-account-based features, which is not in
compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
Apps cannot require user registration prior to allowing access to app
features and content that are not associated specifically to the
user. User registration that requires the sharing of personal
information must be optional or tied to account-specific
functionality. Additionally, the requested information must be
relevant to the features.
I payed all my efforts and time in this app. So, my question is: Is there is any Solution to make the App Store accept my app without changing anything in its structure ??
Thanks in Advance.
You have two options:
Make the neccessary changes to the app.
Contact Apple, and explain why your application needs the user to register, and that the application is indeed in compliance with the rules.
Option 2 works best if the application actually conforms to the rules, but depending on what the app actually does, there might be a grey area. Unfortunately the outcome of this option can also be closely correlated to communication skills - so prepare your arguments before calling or mailing Apple.

I'm planning to crate a service that among other things creates an iPhone app based on a template and submits it to the AppStore almost without human intervention.
Is that allowed by apple?
Some similar startups now require users to use their own developers account (which costs $100 and will not be paid by my users).
In principle I don't see why not, as regular developers are allowed to submit their customer's apps. Am I missing something?
It is definitely not allowed by apple. As that would be using a single developer account to submit apps, from someone different that the person that purchased the account (you in this case).
Besides if they can submit anything, if someone submits something inappropriate under your name, it will be your problem not theirs.
Furthermore I am pretty sure your clients, would want their name in the AppStore for their app and not yours.
This is definitely not allowed by Apple. Even if it was, the apps would be under your name so any in app purchase would be put into your bank account (cha-ching $$$)

For an app specific to a closed system like for internal usage within an organization, what are the concerns of the approval process at the App Store? The application requires user to login, and the login details are provided internally, and there is no signup feature.
You must provide a temporary login to the reviewer; you can do so in the "additional information" field at the bottom of the iTunes Connect form you use to upload your application. I've done that in previous apps and it works perfectly well. Once your app is approved, just disable the account.

We are developing an app for a client who is currently in the process of creating their own Apple account.
The problem is they got started with the process late, and we need to submit the app ASAP for review.
Has anyone had any experience with changing the seller account after an app has been approved and is available in the App Store?
Thanks!
According to most reports, the only way to do this is to remove the app from the old account, and submit it under the new account as a new and different app. Ratings, reviews, saved settings/etc. and update-ability will not transfer, since they are tied to the app ID, and the app ID has to be a new and unique in the destination account.
Yes is possible, but you must contact people at Apple and start a quite long and procedure with papers and stuffs. Best way to start is to ask a "general app/appstore question" in the "contact us" section of iTunesConnect site.
