Creating an iPhone app? How?

I've been looking for weeks online for instructions on how to do this, but I can't find the information I'm looking for so I thought I'd post my question here.
I have an iPhone 3G and love it. I'm an author who would like to sell my ebook in the app store. I've downloaded the 3.0 SDK to my hard drive (but after installation, I can't find it) nor can I find any instructions on how to use it to create an app.
If anyone knows of an online resource you can recommend to help me, I'd gladly appreciate it. I'm completely in the dark as to how to do this and Apple's website isn't as helpful as I had hoped.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the info.
So basically I can't create any Iphone apps with what looks like the single edition I have.
I'm trying to create some apps for the Newstand so I've already created a Ipad version but was also hopeing to have a Iphone version too
It says you can create unlimited Ipad apps with the single edition but would that include multiple editions of a magazine rather than an update of an existing one?

As long as you enabled it when you first activated your Iphone, it's pretty straightforward. Using any computer, go to icloud.com. Sign in with your Apple ID. A screen will come up with a map showing the general location of your phone. If you have a friend with an iphone and are logged in using Safari, when you get close, you can tell your iphone to make a sound. Good luck.

Gday i erased my imac from my ipad using the find iphone app,how do i restore it back 2 factory settings

gday i erased my imac from my ipad using the find iphone app,how do i restore it so it can b used again

What OS did the Mac come pre-installed with, or have you upgraded it to Lion or Mountain Lion? You should be able to re-install using Internet Recovery, if you were on either of those OS's.
Restart holding down Command + Alt (Option) + r
You'll probably prompted for your Apple ID and you'll need to have the Mac connected to the internet - ideally via ethernet cable, although wifi should be OK if you have a reliable connection.
More details here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
If you're on an earlier OS you'll need to use the grey restore disk that came with the Mac. Post back if you need more info.
P.S. Pleased to hear you got your Mac back.

Creating an iPhone app in DPS app builder?

I'm trying to create a test Iphone (Newstand) app before publishing but when I go to 'create app' in Indesign the DPS app builder loads up but doesn't give me the option to create an Iphone app, just a Ipad one?
I've noticed my version of the DPS app builder is on single edition but I have a developers licence now so I assumed that would have changed?
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
best regards

I have created an iPhone app using xCode and am now ready to publish it. Do I have to sign up to the $99/yr program in order to get a certificate?

I have created an iPhone app using xCode and am now ready to publish it. Do I have to sign up to the $99/yr program in order to get a certificate? I keep getting the error message: CodeSign Error: code signing is required...although the app tests fine on the simulator. Does this mean that I need to pay the $99 to create the app or do you only need to pay if you want it published on iTunes?
Any advice will be gratefully received.

Download Xcode, learn Objective-C, practice endlessly, purchase Apple Dev status, then publish your work.

Trying to create first iPhone app, use Interface Builder or Xcode first?

I'm trying to create my first iPhone App, do I start with Interface Builder or Xcode first? And how do I link the two together?

It's not really that simple -- you'll be working with both. Interface Builder is used to design the GUI (graphical user interface, which consists of the windows and buttons and text fields and so forth, the parts of the application that your user interacts with). Xcode, on the other hand, is used to write the code that tells that GUI what it's supposed to do, and how to do it. So, to answer your question as best I can -- generally, I would imagine you would want to start by creating the basic form of your GUI in Interface Builder and then start coding where appropriate in Xcode, then you'll move back and forth between the two (Xcode and Interface Builder) as needed.
If you're new to programming and want to start with iPhone apps, I recommend picking up a book on the topic (Apress publishing has a book called "Beginning iPhone 3 Development: Exploring the iPhone SDK" that is a good one, and don't forget to take advantage of Apple's iOS Dev Center, which has lots of good documentation on most any topic that will be helpful in supplementing the information in the book you buy -- click [here|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action] to go there).
Keep in mind, however, that trying to learn to program iPhone apps will be difficult (to say the least) if you don't already know Objective-C, and the Apress book I recommended above will not be easy to follow without understanding Objective-C first. Objective-C an object-oriented extension of C, and it is the programming language that is used to develop iOS apps (apps for the iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad). I would definitely recommend learning Objective-C on the Mac before jumping in to iPhone development in specific. Apress has another book called "Learn Objective-C on the Mac" that I would recommend for this.
Furthermore, since Objective-C is an extension of C, you won't have an easy time learning it without a prior understanding of the C programming language. Again, Apress has a book for this, called "Learn C on the Mac."
Put simply, learning to program for the iPhone is not something that comes overnight -- it's a step-by-step process that takes patience, and you have to be willing to go through these steps if you want to learn to program properly for the iPhone.
Step 1 -- learn the C programming language
Step 2 -- learn the Objective-C programming language
Step 3 -- apply your knowledge to developing for iOS (iPhone's operating system) with the Cocoa Touch framework
Anyways, that's just my advice -- I definitely recommend taking the time to do it right and not jumping straight into the deep end, but in the end only you know what works best for you. Also, like I said, I definitely think investing in a book on the subject is worth the time and money, so let me know if you want any other recommendations for books beyond the ones listed above.
Hope this was helpful to you, and best of luck with your journey toward programming for iOS.

IPhone Apps how to get them back?

So say your hard drive melts down and you have to start fresh, and you dont have a backup of your iphone apps (which takes way too many hours with anything over 10 apps) How would you go about retrieving all the apps you have already purchased without having to re-buy them all? Or say you just want to buy a new machine.

Get an external hard drive and back up your internal hard drive. If your hdd melts down you'll lose a lot more than iPhone apps!
If you have already downloaded an app and buy it again (as long as you are using the same iTunes Store account) you are prompted that you have already purchased the app, and you can download it again for free.

3 accounts at itunes, problems updating iphone apps, how erase old acc?

hi
i am having troubles with my itunes accounts. for whatever reasons
i have 3 accounts there, which i established in the last 10 years, buying software and hardware at apple store germany. i cant remember the last 2 account names/passwords, only the present one. thats confusing. one sideeffect is, that i cant update all iphone apps, it refuses to update some apps, which i bought earlier.
i have to do it manually via iphone app update inside the iphone, also i usually get 3 mails from "apple news".
i would like to have ONE account which refers to my .mac mobileme membership and my main apple mail adress, but i dont know where to call in order to change that, there is no support for itunes account (phone) other than mail, so i mailed them and got answered from a mailbot like "we cant erase old accounts". i am feeling helpless.
any idea?
thanks!

By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you replaced your hard drive, your phone will see your computer as a "new" computer and all itunes content will first be deleted from your phone. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software:
http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
1. Disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected under preferences in itunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in iCal & Address Book. The entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect your phone, itunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
6. Right click(Control Click) in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
That's as good as it gets without a backup of your itunes library.

How can i get money back for a iphone app, how can i get money back for a iphone app

I go a 59p polaroid app, and the second day i tryed to use it, it would not start up. is there a way i can get my money back?

I understand what that's like, believe me. And adding problems with an Apple product really adds insult to injury. Trust me, calling them when the lines are open will be really good. They're very nice, and from my own experience they've always found a solution for me. When you're frenzied it's sometimes nice to talk to a person instead of fill out a form. Refer to my post above for their number, but I don't think they open until 9 'o clock Pacific Time or something like that. Good luck!

Creating an iphone app

Hello all. I am new at all of this. I was wondering if there are any programmers who could assist in developing an idea that i have for the iphone. I am in Memphis, TN and not really sure where to begin. Any information or ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks to all.

IPhone App

I am using Edge and PhoneGap to create an iPhone app - how do I stop the content turning on an IPhone. I just want the content to vertical or horizontal not both.

Are you referring to when you change orientation from landscape to portrait? If so you would have to set media queries. in my case I show a full screen image telling the user to view in landscape mode for best viewing. This may be a solution or not depending on your requirements.
