Everything I need to make an application
I am really interested in making an application for apple. I have no clue into what I need to get this done. Will someone please let me know everything I need to make an application? Where can I get a license for it? Thanks to whoever knows.
Hi, and welcome to the Dev Forums!
Your question is very broad and would best be answered by any one of a number of books. I really don't know which book to recommend without understanding a little more about your background and goals.
Firstly, we'll need to know whether you want to develop for the Mac, iPhone or Safari. It might also be good to know what kind of app you have in mind.
Secondly, it would be helpful to know whether you intend to design and program this app personally or whether you intend to hire people with expertise in developing Apple software. If you intend to develop the app yourself, it would be most helpful to know what you have developed in the past and/or your related college coursework or self-study.
There's a wealth of information at the Apple Developer sites, and I would recommend becoming familiar with the site that applies to your interest area: [http://developer.apple.com>. If you live near a good book store, I'd also recommend spending time in the Apple developer section. Typing +programming apple+ in the search field of an online bookstore will also give you lots to look over.
Hope that's helpful!

Am running Tiger 10.4.11; just got Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (regular OS disk, not upgrade). When I install Snow Leopard, will it wipe everything? overwrite Tiger? Do I need to make backups of applications and files to reinstall after Snow Leopard Loads? thanks!
Hi Donald,
No it doesn't erase anything by default, it does what we used to call an Archive and Install feature, which can give you a new OS, yet preserve your files and settings if you have enough room on your HD...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
But it does it automatically unless you specifically erase the Disk, but will replace Tiger completely for the OS & several Apple Apps like Safari, Mail, etc, yet preserve your old settings for those!
If you think you may need Tiger to run any APPs that do not work in SL/10.6, then clone or backup first.
I would recomend 2 things before installing though...
Make sure you have enough RAM & HD space.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the new Mac OS X SL/10.6 Install Disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

also, I have to mention I already reinstalled package and nothing works. Help please!
Hi, thanks for getting back. Here is the full content on the window that pops up every time I click on my Word icon: "Microsoft Word cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Microsoft Word works with this version of Mac OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OS X. Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple". I reinstalled the application, and everything else is updated, so I am not sure what to do.

Hi all, I'm trying to download a film from iTunes onto my iPad but downloaded the HD version instead of SD and don't have the room to download it. Have removed everything I can to make space but still need another 1.2 GB. Is there any way I can delete it so I can delete the version I wanted, or even better change to the SD version? The film is still queuing in the downloads list. I've tried edit and delete but that doesn't work. I also can't re-download the film from iTunes.
Any suggestions very welcome!Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
Before that, back up your device, explained here:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
How to back up your data and set up as a new device

I need to make list of 700+ dvds that can be updated alphabetically as I attain more. I'm new at computers, lbought an iMac (with Lion). What application or software will do this for me the easiest?
Yes, the ColorPicker would be great, except as far as I can tell there's no way to assign names to the colors in my custom data provider. The user needs to know the name of the color (eg. P01 - Wisteria), but the ColorPicker only shows the hex values. Unless there's a way to change that?
Repasting the two code chunks from above, which didn't display properly:
Works, but doesn't show swatches:
TileList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeColor);
var colorBox:ColorTransform = new ColorTransform();
function changeColor(e:Event):void{
colorBox.color = tileList.selectedItem.data;
box_mc.transform.colorTransform = colorBox; }
Shows swatches, but doesn't work:
var aBoxes:Array = new Array(); var i:uint = 0;
var printColorHex:Array = new Array(0xfac9c2, 0xFF0000, 0x0000CC, 0x00CC00, 0xFFFF00);
var printColorNames:Array = new Array("R-01 Pale Coral", "Cranberry", "Sky", "Forest", "July");
var dpPrintColors:DataProvider = new DataProvider();
for(i=0; i < printColorHex.length; i++) {
aBoxes[i] = new MovieClip();
drawBox(aBoxes[i], printColorHex[i]); // draw box w next color in array
dpPrintColors.addItem( {label:printColorNames[i], source:aBoxes[i]} );
aTl.dataProvider = dpPrintColors;
function drawBox(box:MovieClip,color:uint):void {
box.graphics.beginFill(color, 1.0);
box.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 140, 60);
box.graphics.endFill(); -
I need to transfer files applications etc from a Mac Book Pro to a Mac Book, but I want certain files/applicaitons to be available only to certain users. DO I transfer everything first then move it into different accounts or can I set up the different user accounts first & select what goes where when I migrate?
ThxDo you have a backup that you can restore from? Your old hard drive seems to be the problem.

How can I make my application visible on the net?
Hi Everyone,
Here is a silly question. I created a nice application on my notebook pc where I installed HTML DB. It is running Windows XP. The server is the HTTP server that came with the companion disk.
Can you tell me what I need to do to make the application visible to people on the internet?
Thanks.
Emad.change your call from println to print.
check the API docs for this stuff, it tells you everything you need to know.
Good Luck

My news macbook air is saying I need to make available space on my start up disk... how do I do that? What files should I delete?
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning your files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal. -
Need Help Putting Together a rMBP so I Have Everything I Need...
Hello-
I am having trouble getting the right kind of help from "Chat Now" on apple.com and calling in to get my questions/needs taken care of so that when I get the rMBP I will be sure I wil have what I need to go right online and teach the online courses. I even went to the local apple store and woked with a couple sames guys there, but they were not clear in a couple situations on what I would need with the different options the rMBP gives. so I am truning to the great apple forum for additional help. this might be too much to ask even for tis forum, but if I can learn a little at a time, maybe I can gradually gain the knowledge I need to have a complete and functioning home office for my personal computing needs and my needs as an online teacher at a university back East. My technical knowledge is not the best, so as far as the rMBP goes, a big problem for me is that I do not have the knowledge to make sure I order everything I need with the changes a new rMBP will bring to my current setup (which is just a basic MBP using a wireless router and a USB cable for the printer that I just connect when I need to print). I realizee my current set up on my desk is not the most advanced, but I would need a pro to come to my office and help me get the best set-up for what I am curently using. It seems that the agents I chat with and/or talk to on the phone are aslo lacking in knowledge to help me put together a rMBP that will be ready to fully use and have with the order all that I need so that I do not have to order additional items in a mad rush to be ready for the courses I am teaching online. I have read several articles about the rMBP so that I cold have some knowledge about what I will need but as I said my techie knowledge is lacking. I am looking at the 15" rMBP with all of the full upgrades that the configure option allows one to get. I am not clear if I do run into trouble with my wi fi and have to use my ethernet cable what I will need to do this. I also have programs that are older that I am guesing I will need to install using a DVD player. I would like to hook up the printer I have or a new Canon printer and use it wirelessly, but for now I will most likely be using it with a USB cable. I am not clear on the thunderbolt technology and if I should get any of these cables for any of the connections. I also would like to get a great speaker system and will need to hook that up, but I am not clear on the best way to do this. I have been wanting an iMac, but I am not sure what is a good slection to get and how to connect it to the rMBP or one of the other 2 older MBPs I currently have.
If somebody could list for me what I would need to have a complete rMBP that will allow me to do these hookups and connections and explain what would be the best way to complete the various connections so that I have all that I will need to get up and running, I would really appreciate it. Because I do not have any USB 3.0 cables or cables for various additional connections, I would need help/suggestions in this area. I realize this is hard to do not seeing my office, but since I will be starting new with the purchase of the new rMBP and hopefully an iMac (and a new Canon printer and new set of great sounding speakers) getting some advice on what I should order for the various connections would be a hugh help. Part of the problem is with the rMBP and not having used one of these in the past. I know some of the differences with this machine like the lack of an internal SuperDrive and the new ports, but I do not know what cables I will need that will utilize the newer technology this machine and an imac will bring to my office.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, even if you do not give me specific answers, but an idea, for example, of what I might need to connect the speaker system (knowing the best way the new speaker system shold be connected to the rMBP and/or the iMac. I am not even clear if I do want to use the iMac with the rMBP for teaching with a larger display what I will need to connect the imac to the rMBP. is this done by an HDMI cable and if so is there a specific type or example you could mention that is on apple.com?There are many differences with the new rMBP. There are ports that I am not sure what I would use them for. Even the ethernet cable I use now to get the internet will not work with the rMBP. I thought there would be some additional help on here. as far as configuring the rMBP there are just a few options but the differences between an older MBP and the new rMBP is great. No need to reply I will turn off email notifications. I gave as much information as I did because in the past I was told to give more information.

Everything you need to know about Foxtel Go
Foxtel on T-Box customers can self register Foxtel Go on 2 devices per Foxtel on T-Box subscription. You are able to view content on 1 of the 2 registered devices. The T-Box device will automatically be registered on your behalf and cannot be deregistered. You can change the device they have registered once per calendar month.
To change a registered device you must log into the Foxtel Go app. As a Foxtel from Telstra customer please use your Foxtel My account details. As a Foxtel on T-Box customer please log in with your primary (i.e. the first username created and linked to your account) BigPond username and password.
Once in the app go to the settings icon and choose 'manage my devices'. Within this section of the app you will be able to select de-register for the device you wish to change. To register, download the Foxtel Go app and log in. You will be prompted to register the device.
Remember you can only change one device once per calendar month. If you are still able to make a change, you will be advised of the number of device registrations left this month.
If you recently registered your T-Box, you should have access to Foxtel Go within 1 hour. If you are experiencing errors please try closing the Foxtel Go App and logging in again. If you are still unable to access any content please contact us via Telstra 24x7 or Telstra Technical Support on 13 22 00
If you swap your Foxtel on T-Box service to a new device, your Foxtel Go service is not affected as it is associated to your BigPond username and password, and not the T-Box device.
When trying to make a second device change within a month the de-register' button will be greyed out, preventing the change.
Current channel rights only allow Foxtel Go to be registered on 3 devices per Foxtel Account. For Foxtel on T-Box customers, the T-Box counts as your 3rd device.
The parental control function is specific to Foxtel Go and managed in the app via the settings icon. To access parental control:
Go to the settings' icon in the app (top right)
Access parental controls'
Choose which classifications you'd like to restrict
All R-rated content is automatically blocked, but you can personalise your restrictions for other ratings. To do this go to Settings in the Foxtel Go app, turn on Parental Controls and restrict the classifications you would like to block. If this is the first time you do this you'll be prompted to set a 4 digit PIN specifically for Foxtel Go. You can use this PIN to change your parental controls in the future. This PIN is only applicable to the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel from Telstra customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your IQ or Set Top Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go. For Foxtel on T-Box customers, the PIN is not the same as you use on your T-Box, and you will be required to setup a new PIN to restrict content on Foxtel Go.
Foxtel Go content is unmetered with Telstra BigPond Home Broadband services. With other internet service providers this will be offset against your data plan.
If you use Foxtel Go on your device with any 3G/4G telecommunications service provider, including Telstra, usage isn't unmetered and you will incur data charges when using Foxtel Go. The below list provides an indicationof the data you will use per device on the various app settings, based on watching an hour of TV. To view your settings go to the 'settings' icon in the Foxtel Go App, turn on 'video settings' and choose your preferred quality:
3G Phone/Tablet Best: 320 MB per hour / Low: 170 MB per hour
Wi-Fi Phone Best: 420 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
Wi-Fi Tablet Best: 720 MB per hour / Low: 320 MB per hour
Wi-Fi PC/Mac Best: 1310 MB per hour / Low: 470 MB per hour
The size of each episode or Movie on Catch up TV can be found on the Synopsis tab.
You can use Foxtel Go at a Wi-Fi location or a personal hotspot when you are in Australia provided you have an internet connection. Some locations offer Wi-Fi hotspots where you can log onto the internet for free. e.g. McDonalds, Starbucks, etc. Any data charges incurred are charged to the business and not to you. When connected to Wi-Fi, you'll see a Wi-Fi symbol on your device.
Foxtel from Telstra customers with a Foxtel iQ or iQHD set top box can Remote Record and send a channel change to their set top box. Unfortunately this functionality is not available to Foxtel on T-Box customers.
You can pause and rewind the last 30 minutes of Live TV, even if you've just changed to that channel. Due to device restrictions users of Samsung Android devices are unable to use this feature.
Foxtel Go is a streaming video service. Streaming means that images and sound are delivered live to your device to view when you press Play, rather than being downloaded to your device to view at a later time.
Games you'd normally see on Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box on FOX SPORTS 3 are broadcast on Foxtel Go on the Footy Play Plus channel
There are no Catch Up of AFL games or magazine shows on Foxtel Go due to content restrictions.
The key symbol indicates that a channel isn't part of your package. You need to upgrade your Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box package to watch it. Your package can not be updated through the Foxtel Go app. For Foxtel on T-Box customers you can update your packages in the T-Box App, at www.telstra.com/tboxsetup, via 13 2200 or in store. For Foxtel from Telstra customers you can update your packages through the store or via 13 1999. The lock symbol indicates that, as part of your parental control setting, you've locked this classification of content, and can't watch it. If you want to change the settings then the primary (i.e. the first username created and linked to your account) account holder can change these by:
Go to the settings' icon in the app (top right)
Access parental controls'
Choose which classifications you'd like to restrict
No other username or password can change the parental control settings.
We may be required to block out specific programming from time to time, e.g. if a channel doesn't have the legal right to broadcast the programme over the internet. However, all live channels are the same as channels you watch through Foxtel from Telstra or Foxtel on T-Box.
The vast majority of the Foxtel on T-Box content is available via Foxtel Go. There are some minor exceptions. MTV Music and MTV Dance channels are not available. FOOTY PLAY and FOOTY PLAY+ (overflow) channels are not available on PC and Mac only.
Access to Foxtel Go is included in your Foxtel on T-Box and Foxtel from Telstra subscription. However, you will incur data charges when accessing the service on a 3G/4G network.Re: Everything you need to know about Foxtel Go
