Director 12 iOS app question

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 24 Feb 2014 20:39:18 GMT

So, I'll try to keep this short but clarify as best I can:

I work for a school district IT department. We currently have a teacher who has been developing and updating Director tutorials back to the Director 4 days. This summer he is doing a major updating effort to update his tutorials using Director 12 (He last did this effort to bring Director 10 compatibility.)

He also wants to consider republishing them for iOS compatbility.

Putting aside the intellectual property issues of who owns the application code (that may end up in lawyers' hands), what does it take to get final apps working on an iOS 7 iPad?

Is it possible that we may choose to not publish to the App Store and use an in-house Apple provisioning profile through the Apple Enterprise Developer Connection membership and side load these finished tutorials on iPads? Do we have to publish to the App Store? If we do a free app in the Store, do we have to give Adobe a payment? Paid app?

Putting aside those type of issues, how hard is it for most folks to recompile such apps for iOS? Any pitfalls?

I'll be honest, I'm confused and would like some guidance from other folks who have actually done this.

We have a series of about 50-100 Director projects that our science teachers love, but due to intellectual property/ownership of code/providing technical support issues, we have no desire to publish these apps to the iOS App Store. Is it possible to develop these as iOS binaries, use an internal provisioning profile with the Apple Enterprise Developer Program and install these only to devices controlled by the school district? While I love our stuff and would love nothing more to share it, we have no desire to deal with intellectual property issues or providing email tech support for these apps beyond our installed base.
