14 DAY TRIAL // Apple has notified developers that iTunes Connect will be unavailable from Saturday, December 21, to Friday, December 27, 2013.
For a limited time, “iTunes Connect will not be accessible and you will not be able to submit any apps or In-App Purchases,” Apple has announced.
The Cupertino company informs developers that, “Processing of any Newsstand Atom feeds will be delayed until after December 27. Sales and Trends reports via the Autoingestion tool will be available but may also be delayed."
Application sellers are advised not to schedule any pricing changes or updates to go live during this timeframe. Any scheduled changes will cause the app to become unavailable for purchase until after December 27.
Same goes for new releases: “Similarly, apps scheduled to go live during that range will not be released until after December 27,” says Apple.
Developers who require additional information are directed to the Contact module on iTunes Connect.
