The thread you originally posted in was not active for almost an year. When speaking about web technologies, information, examples and things as a general, tend to get stale pretty quickly. That said, what was the fix back then, might not be a fix today.
Since then there have been a couple of minor iOS updates, as well as one major update. We also had three major version releases and 6 minor.
Those [both the product version and iOS software version] are important for resolving the issue.
We need either a runnable project or a live URL that always exhibits the issue.
And lastly, but not least, we are about to release a new version of the controls and we did make some improvements in the mobile experience. It's quite possible that the problems you are experiencing are resolved in the Q3 release, which will be out in about two weeks.

I have downloaded the latest version of Telerik (Oct 16 release). Could you please refer me to an example where we can use the RadTreeview's ContextMenu on IOS devices?
With the 2012 Q3 SP1 release will include improvements that will target the context menu with treeview on iOS

I couldn't find the 2012 Q3 SP1 release which you mentioned, Could you please refer me to its link or if its not released, let me know the approx date/month in which its expected to release?
Thanks
The SP1 will be out on December 5th.
After that you just need to log into your account profile and download it.

Now that the service pack has already been released and i have already waited a lot, could you please have a look on my problem again to suggest how to handle this situation with the new updated controls?
Thanks
The issue I mentioned was fixed was text selection realted issue introduced with iOS6. Namely, the selection was taking precedence over long touch events and in terms preventing this event from firing.
There were two implications:
-- Users would not be able to drag and drop a tree node;
-- Users would not be able to show context menu.
With the fix available, the long touch event is not possible.
However, there are three things that can happen on long touch:
-- drag drop
-- node editing
-- context menu
Depending on the actual settings [of the treeview], either drag drop or node editing will be triggered, with drag and drop having higher precedence.
The context menu event [for mobile] is not currently implemented in the treeview, but should you have a custom long touch (tap and hold) event handler it will work.
As a final note, it all very well depends on the actual browser you are using. Though both Safari and Chrome for iOS use the same engine (webkit) there are differences between the actual behaviour of the two browsers.
All the best,

Thanks for the reply. What i need is to have the context menu shown on custom long touch event handler (tap and hold) in IOS devices and this was the only reason for which i have been waiting for the recent release. So could you please refer me to some example where this has been implemented by using the latest library.
Thanks in advance.
Currently, we can not provide you with a solution for that. We are working on improvements and built in support for context menus, but that's not ready yet.
