Can I launch apps from safari?

Hi
I was looking for sample code about webapps on iPhone and found this link:
http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/iPhoneIntegration/index.html
With that sample I can access some iPhone applications, but I haven't found nothing else and I dont know if there are others apps that I can access.
So, Can I launch an arbitrary app from safari?
If so, How do I do that?
Thank you
Carlos Asensio

As I can see in the link about the iPhone integration sample you can do something like that:
< a href="tel:408-555-5555" > call me < /a >
but I have not found it documented anywhere
And I thought that this would be a great place to found it:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/docs/documentation/AppleApplications /Reference/SafariHTMLRef/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002049
I want to know if I can do any other tasks with safari and where is documented.

Can't launch applications from Safari link

When I try to open any external application through the Safari link, I'm redirected to the Safari "Favourites" tab and the app fails to launch.
For instance, on clicking on a magnet link, the default torrent client(uTorrent in my case) should launch. Or when clicking on the "View in the Mac App Store" link for any application on the apple website, the app store launch. However, instead of launching the application, safari redirects me to the favourites page.
I understand certain apps like Candy Crush were automatically redirecting users to the app store and apple resolved the issue in the updated OS, but is there a way to filter which apps safari can launch, maybe even if it asks for a password?

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

Can I launch apps from backup hard drive?

i just started using Time Machine and an external drive. Shortly after that, PowerPoint 2004 is acting srangely. It takes a long time to load, then will only let me open from templates, etc. When I click 'Open Other', I get a HUGE window with no info. Also tried using OPEN from the file menu, and then it hangs. Only way I can open a presentation is by clicking on the presentation icon and letting that launch PowerPoint.
I'm not super technically inclined so I need some help. I'd like to know if I can launch PowerPoint from my external drive, to make sure that the Time Machine version is OK. If so, can I restore PowerPoint using Time Machine?

NO. you can't do that. what you can do is restore the application from the TM and launch it from your main drive. However, most likely the problem is not with the application itself but with some preference files in your home directory. to test that create a new user account and try running Power Point there.

You don't mention which operating system you have so it's difficult to provide an answer since the mac and Windows stores the files differently.
The other thing you can do is just re-download the apps from the iTunes Store. Just login to the iTunes Store on the other computer using the same Apple ID. On the right-hand side of the iTunes Store page you will see a 'Purchased' link. Clicking on that will take you to a page that will list your past purchases which you can re-download to the new computer.

How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another?

How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another? My daughter has an iTouch, and I was managing it through my library. I have created an iTunes account for her, with a new iTouch, and would like to move the apps over. I tried to sync the old iTouch to the new library and it said it was already set up to sync with a different library. What is the best way to do this?

You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
To make the new computer the syncing computer you have to:
- Transfer iTunes purchases lIke I described above
- Make a backup of the iPod on that computer by connecting the iPod and then right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
- Restore the iPOd from that backup
She will have to continue to use your iTunes ID to update the apps prchased with your account. To use her account she will have to log into the computer with her account (iTunes>Store) and change the sign in on the iPod by going to Settings>Store.

Apple the best

The iPad 1 can't run the newer operating systems. It'd be like trying to play a bluray disc in your 6 year old dvd player....it simply lacks the hardware to make the software run.
No suggestion about the camera, but given that Apple's attitude seems to be to focus more on the more mobile devices for photography (the iPhone and Touch cameras got features, the iPad and mini didn't), that is highly unlikely. You can tell Apple what you want, but you'd probably be money ahead to get a digital camera.
as to the photos, anything put on via iTunes has to come off via iTunes.Your main alternative would be to look for photo apps that offer file exchange that may give you more functionality.

All of your apps should be on your computer.
Just sync them to the new device.

How can I sync apps from my iTunes on Macbook Air without syncing apps from the iPad 2 to my Macbook Air?

How can I sync apps from my iTunes on Macbook Air without syncing apps from the iPad 2 to my Macbook Air? (As my Macbook Air is only 64GB and my iPad is 64GB and that my Macbook Air only has 40 GB left...) Or is there no other way but to sync apps from iTunes to iPad without syncing apps from iPad to iTunes(it says Backing Up , then it says Converting files to iTunes, then it shows the name of the app on the bottom...)

Yes, sign in with the same Apple ID as your stolen one in the new iPod Touch.

Can i access apps from itunes on my pc

can i access apps from itunes on my pc?
I want to download my apps to my pc so I can clear some space on my iphone 4.
Then I can use the space for other things e.g music.
However at a later date I would like to access these apps and the data they have stored using my PC
Is this possible?
Or is this just another Mac problem?

Most apps will store their data locally on the device. This can be restored from a backup when restoring the device, but if you remove the app any data associated with it is removed, and then subsequently purged from the device's rolling backup set on the next backup. If the app supports iTunes File Sharing you may be able to export its data to your computer, then reimport at a later date when you add the app back to your device.
