Playing sounds on iPad/Iphone

[jizzle]

Hi guys,
I'm having real difficulty getting my app sound to work on an iPad. I have tried 2 of the tutorials on the subject and have still seen no luck. I know you have to copy files to the standalone settings and reference them but there is still no sound coming out from my iPad when testing and also if I press play in live code it works fine.
Surely it shouldn't be so hard to play sounds? Can anyone please help...

This is the one that is working on both Livecode and the simulator but not on actual IPad:


on mouseUp

set the folder to the engine folder
play "/Users/kingjamesii/Documents/Graphic Design/Alcohol App/VoiceOver/background.aif"

end mouseUp

and this is another effort:

on mouseUp
play specialFolderPath("engine")& "/Users/kingjamesii/Documents/Graphic Design/Alcohol App/VoiceOver/background.aif"
end mouseUp

thanks

Jizzle..

This works on a mobile device.. note that through the 'copy files' pane, I have copied a folder 'musicTracks' that contains the audio file 'aa.aiff"

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put specialFolderPath("engine") & "/musicTracks/aa.aiff" into theFileToPlay
   play theFileToPlay
end mouseUp

be well
