15 and want to develop for iOS

My mom ahs given me the permission to join the developer program using her credit card (it has my name on it though-its a complicated thing with the credit card) but I am only 15 and I was wondering if there was any way I could still join the developer program even though I'm under the "legal age of majority" which is stated as 18. Any ideas on what I should do?

What you have to do is have your mom sign up as a developer. Then, according to the Registered Apple Developer agreement, you can share her Apple ID and act as if you were her. I would suggest that your mom create a new Apple ID (with her name) solely for development purposes (by you). You (she) will need a new e-mail address for that. Then you don't have to worry about possible password changes, or billing, or payments, etc. It is all still legal, just easier to manage.
I know of a couple of people in your situation and that is the way it works. Sometimes it can be confusing when they post on the (paid) developer forums with the wrong name, but that's the way it works. Good luck!
If you have more questions, contact Apple directly: https://developer.apple.com/contact/

  • Developing for IOS with flash on a mac

    Hello,
    Lee Bremelow put up a good starter's guide on his blog about setting up development for IOS with flash on windows.
    Can someone help me with a similar introduction to doing the same on a mac?
    Been looking for one with no luck.
    thanks,
    romit

    Hi Duncan,
    In the Publish Settings window, in the HTML tab, at the top
    of the window under the "Template" option is a second option:
    "Detect Flash Version". Check this box. The AC_RunActiveContent.js
    file will contain a couple of functions that will test the user's
    plugin version. If it doesn't pass the test then the html page will
    show a message telling the user to get the Flash plugin and a link
    to the plugin.

  • Developing for the Mac verse developing for iOS?

    hey all, i was focused on developing for iOS, but it seems like the Mac user share is growing so i was wondering if there's enough of a market for me to focus development on the Mac instead of iOS. from what i can see, the Mac platform has been around for decades and only has a 10% share of the PC market. on the other hand, the iOS platform has only been around for a few years and the iPhone and iPad have a clear majority of market share for the smart phone and tablet market.
    what should i focus on as a first timer for Apple development? i've only had a couple years of VB experience so i'm new to software development overall.
    thanks

    If you can come up with a great app, iOS has the potential to make a lot of money.
    Not so much on the Mac side.
    I'm just finishing up my first iOS app and I'm thinking about porting it to OS X.
    If you've got a couple of years of VB, be prepared for a lot of learning.  Objective C isn't like VB except for the OOP fundamentals.
    Good luck whatever you decide to do!

  • Prerequisites on start development for iOS

    Good afternoon!
    Let's start developing for iOS here in the company, and I would like to know what equipment and software needed to start.
    I've been searching, and apparently I install an OS X Server in a virtual machine on the server to start the development. Is that possible? I mean, do not acquire any Apple machine, but only the software I need?
    Thank you in advance.

    Thanks for the reply, KiltedTim.
    If so, what configuration do you recommend for developing opportunistic apps for business?

  • What I need to create and publish a magazine for iOS and Android?

    Hi!
    I would like to know what I need to design, create and publish a magazine for iOS and Android. I would also like to know what products I need, what price would you pay and what process I have to follow to carry out this work.
    Thanks in advance!

    It is NOT possible to create a Single Edition app for Android. Single Edition apps work only on the iPad.
    You can create Single Edition apps using any account—CC, Pro, or Enterprise—and if you cancel your DPS subscription, these Single Edition (or single-folio) apps are still available in the App Store as long as you maintain your iOS account with Apple.
    For multi-folio apps, the app container is downloaded from an app store, but the folios are downloaded from the Adobe Distribution Service. If you cancel your DPS subscription, the Adobe Distribution Service basically shuts down for that app. New users can still download your apps from an app store, but the library will be empty. Existing users can still view the folios they've downloaded, but they can't get any updates or new folios.

  • Multiplayer gameplay development for ios and android environments.

    Can anyone recommend a book for Multiplayer game development for the i-phone and android smartphone environment using AS3, and Flash professional.  Can include titles for both coding and also designer philosophy.

    Explain your credentials. Do you know AS2 or AS3 programming. Familiar with AIR SDK? Flex SDK? Flash Professional? Flash Builder? FDT + Eclipse?
    Where you start greatly determines the recommendation. If none of the above is anything you would consider yourself to be familiar with, and books are your thing, you're a half dozen or more books from where you need to be.

  • What do I need to install to begin developing for iOS?

    hi all, i'm going to pick up a Mac Mini this thursday with the intention of developing for the iOS platform. i just wanted to know what i'll need to do to begin developing so i can begin as soon as possible. i know i'll need XCode and a developer license from Apple. will i need anything else?
    thanks

    Max the ram in your mini.
    Buy what you need to have a reliable backup.
    Get the largest monitor you can afford.
    Get an iPhone and iPad for testing.
    Update Lion to 10.7.3 and use Xcode 4.3.1
    Get a good image edtior, text editor and if you intend to do video and audio, apps to edit and manage those resources as well. See the (Mac) App Store.
    When you have your Developer Account, see these links:

  • How much experience is necessary to develop for iOS?

    I want to start learning but am not sure where to start. Should I learn basic programming language before I start, or will I be able to learn as I go?

    The skills are not trivial. Pay for the program and get into the resources in the Dev Center. Start with Cocoa...books on it are ok (see iTunes/iTunes U and coding iBooks from Apple), but printed books off the rack for iOS dev'ing are just a good way to waste money - they are outdated, written against beta code and there is no way the authors support their customers...they all end up wandering the internet for help.
    See this link:
    iPhone Developer Beginner Resource Guide
    Good luck in any case.

  • I want to develop for the iphone

    In addition to exploring the iPhone Dev Center, get +Beginning iPhone Development: Exploring the iPhone SDK+ by Mark and LaMarche. I spent several months trying to learn the SDK from the online docs and the sample code. Then I got Hillegass, which is one of the best ways to learn Cocoa, but didn't cover the iPhone. Some of the really important controls and controller structures were still a dark mystery. Then Mark and LaMarche came out last November and I couldn't help thinking, "If I had only had this to start with! Just get it. By the time you get to Chapter 9, I expect to see you answering a good number of the questions in this forum.

  • I have an iPad Air and want to downgrade to iOS 7. How does this work?

    iOS 8.1 is really slow on my iPad Air so i want to downgrade to iOS 7.
    What should i do?

    Since you can't go backwards to an earlier iOS ... what you should do is reset your iPad to factory default by your iTunes program. Don't forget to do your backups!
