Can iPad/iPhone apps be used on an iMac?

There is an excellent app called Solar Walk but it is designed to be used on iPads and iPhones.
Is there any way of using this and similar apps on a normal iMac or must I go out and buy an iPad?

No.  You cannot run IOS apps on an iMac or any other computer.
Added later...
Did you realise there is a "Solar Walk for Mac" available in the Mac App Store.  Is that the same thing as your IOS App?

    Can all ipod apps be used on the ipad?

    Any apps in the app store that are 'universal', as in works on both large and small screens have a + by the download button.
    Many Touch apps (also iPhone apps) do work on the iPad, but they're tiny, taking up the middle of the screen. You can make them fit the screen, but their appearance varies. Some are high enough resolution that they look okay, others are blurry.

    How do I copy FOLDERS to or from my iPad/iPhone/iPod touch using iTunes File Sharing?
    I know how to copy files to or from using iTunes file sharing but it doesnt seem to allow copying of folders

    From your PC or Mac, you can copy a folder (and it's contents) into the DropBox folder. It will then sync ans will be available in your DropBox app on the iPad.
    GoodReader includes built in connectivity to DropBox, will pick up the contents and then allow you to easily copy files to other folders within it, as well as open files in other apps on your iPad.

  • Re: Can an iPhone 3G operate using ios 5?

    Pretty simple question that I can't seem to find the answer to reading Apple webpages. I have tried updating in iTunes but it tells me that my software version is up to date, version 4.2.1 Maybe the question should be can an iPhone 3G be used with iCloud?
    I have migrated my Mobile Me to iCloud and now I don't get new mail on my phone.
    I know that it is time to update my phone hardware and will but for now....

    Thanks Kilted Tim,
    I was guessing that this was the case.
    Would you happen to know how if it is possible to get new mail on my iPhone 3G using iCloud?
    Since I have gone ahead and migrated Mobile Me to iCloud probably a mistake without updating my phone hardware

    Yes of course its Photoshop. Cut the person out copy to clipboard paste onto toe brick wall document  and texture the layer using a displacement map for the brick wall. Look for Photoshop tutorials on using a displacement map.

  • IPad iPhone app

    I currently have an outdated iphone app in the Apple store. I currently use DPS PRO. I want to update this app so it is for the iPad + iPhone and single folio - is this possible? Where should I start? I want to keep the same APP NAME in Apple.
    And do I have to host this with Adobe ??
    Also wondering if I should have 2 separate apps instead - build one with DPS for the iPad and use another provider for the iPhone - so I can integrate other functionalities into it not available with DPS... your thoughts ??

    We don't support Single Edition on iPhone.

  • Looking for simple sample of iphone apps without using Interface Builder

    I successfully went through the 'iphone app tutorial' and used Interface Builder, but now want to try creating apps without it.
    The UI Catalog sample is too complex, but didn't see anything that just had a view and a button or label.
    Ideally I want code that doesn't require any IB usage, but I can't tell if that is possible yet...
    Anyone have a link to an easy sample?
    Or has anyone created a test app themselves and wouldn't mind posting?
    I took a stab at creating one and posted it on the "101" forum, but it would be hard for somebody to try and figure out what I was attempting

  • Can an iphone 4 be used as a dongle with an ipad2?

    I have an iPhone 4 3G with a tethering buble and 10Mg download package from Orange. I also want to buy an iPad2 32/64Gb. Orage tell me that although my microsim is compatible with both devices and can be changed from one to the other, they will not supply me with a duplicate sim  in order that I can run both devices from the same contract (Shame that Orange).
    So iof I buy an iPad 2 32 or 64 Gb with Wi-Fi only is it possible to connect it to my iPhone 4 and use the iPhone 4 as a dongle?

    If your Orange support it then you can use your iPhone as a mobile hotspot (enabled via the phone's Setting I assume) for the iPad (assuming that you've got iOS 4.3+ on the phone) - the iPad should then see it a wifi network

  • Cannot get ipad, iphones to print using wireless on Photosmart estation e510

    I have a photosmart  estation e-510 and I am trying to get my assorted ipads, iphones to print wireless using this printer.
    I have downloaded the iprint apps, and I have the wireless feature working on the printer. The Apple products will not recognize the printer. i am using a Cisco dual band router.
    I have searched on the forums,on HP website no help.
    Any assistance would be appreciated
    Bob
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Let's start with a restart of the router.  Pull its power plug for a few seconds, plug back in and wait for it to start up.
    If that does not do it, restart your printer and your iOS devices.   Make sure all devices have the lastest firmware.

  • None of my iPhone apps are using cellular data except safari.

    The problem I have is that none of my iPhone apps like skype, whatsapp, viber etc use cellular data !! But safari alone works using cellular data ... And I have a 3G data pack in my iPhone and I use it with safari alone ! So I know that my net pack is not slow .... Previously the apps used to work using cellular data ! But now I don't know what the problem is ... But it's not working ! I also did a general reset to see if the problem gets resolved ... But It doesn't help !! I have an iPhone 4S running on iOS7 !! Someone please help me with this issue ..

    Then, your next step is to restore the phone. Unfortunately, I would not recommend you restore from backup. I'd suggest you restore as a new device, followed by syncing your content back to the phone:

    You can "try" restoring from backup first, but if the issue is being caused by corruption in your backup, restoring from backup will merely restore the issue.

  • New iPad & iPhone app approved :)

    Hi,
    I submitted my first iPad & iPhone game made in Flash to the AppStore a couple of days ago and it just got approved :-)

    What is interesting: iPhone 3Gs with the same iOS (6) works properly - it catches the signal just before the train reaches any station. I've checked today both phones (the same iOS and operator) moving to work. 3Gs got the signal on each station, 4s - every fourth station (apprx).
    I wonder what's about iPhone5 behavior. Can anybody tell something please?

  • Can you recover app data using Time Machine

    When I got my 3GS, I consciously elected to create a new phone, rather than restoring from my previous backup. (Thought it would be best to start from scratch since I hadn't yet installed OS 3.0).
    Anyway,I did this forgetting that only one app I use has any significant data associated with it -- my workout app.
    Is there a way to recover the data for just that app using Time Machine?
    Thanks.

    Had a similar issue with Peggle (close to the last level, but my saves didn't transfer! AAAHH!!!). What I had to do (according to AppleCare) was to restore my phone from a backup. This doesn't take long at all, and you don't have to redownload the OS to do it (it simply replaces "your stuff" with the backup. Doing it this way (instead of going with "new phone" fixed my problem. From there, you can change the name of your phone or whatever you want in iTunes.
    Hopefully you made a recent backup of your old phone so you can do this. If you deleted your backup, you can use Time Machine to restore it and THEN restore from backup on your new phone. But to my knowledge (and according to the Apple rep I talked to) there is no way to simply transfer data within the app itself.
