Question

I have an audio application which works great for iPhone 3.1.x versions.

I am trying to upgrade it to iOS4.0 to work in multitasking environment. When I try to create a new UIBackgroundModes key in info.plist, it (“Required Background Modes”) doesn’t show up in drop down list?

I also upgraded the Xcode SDK to 3.2.3, Base SDK to 4.0, deployment target to 4.0 but still UIBackgroundModes (“Required Background Modes”) won’t show up in info.plist drop down list.

I also created test project for 4.0, and its info.list drop down list has “Required Background Modes”.

Did I miss something?

Answer 1

You can add the key manually by edit the .plist file

    <key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
    <array>
            <string>audio</string>
    </array>
