Xcode gave strange newsstand-error when trying to submit an app

Question

finaly everything works fine and I want to submit my first app the the Appstore. But when I click submit in Xcode 4.1 I get this strange error message:

To include newsstand features, the info.plist must include the uinewsstandapp=true.

(Exact the same and Google doesn't know anything).

But I don't use newsstand and i don't want to use. Where is my mistake?

Markus

Xcode Version 4.1

Try going to your info.plist file: add new row and type `uinewsstandapp` for the key. Set it's type to Boolean, and its value to yes. and if there is a `uinewsstandapp` already in one of the keys make sure that the value is YES. — Dair, Aug 08 '11 at 03:13
when i do it, xcode wants that i activate newsstand for my app in itunes connect. but this is no newsstand app and i don't want to use it:( — boxi, Aug 08 '11 at 09:52

The new version of Xcode introduced a NewsstandIcon under CFBundleIcon. Delete it.

Thanks a lot. For people don't know CFBoundleIcon, it's a key in info.plist file – dcai Oct 08 '11 at 22:17

Do the Xcode developers ever actually use their own software?? – Dancreek Feb 29 '12 at 23:49

You also need to make sure that the UINewsstandApp setting is not present in the Info.plist

you can remove this from info.plist Newsstand Icon Or You Can set this key equal true : UINewsstandApp = true Info.plist key.
