Good tutorials for objective C?

Can anyone here refer me to some good tutorials for learning objective C? (targeting iOS)
Thx.

It really depends what you want to do. If you want to program native business applications for iOS, AS3 is obviously not the right choice. If you want to do Rich-Media crossplatform applications, you're much better of with AS3 than developing a couple of native applications.
I'd argue it doesn't really matter if you're developing cross-platform or not; AS3/AIR for iOS not only becomes much more work than need be, the app is much less stable and presentable as a professional level app. (and I'm developing multimedia app, not a business application, BTW). I guess after all is said and done, I really feel like I'm building a house of cards with AIR for iOS.
When AIR requires using and manipulating stageWebView just so you can have native scroll behavior, when you have to rely on multiple third-party ANEs for basic iOS UI which may or may not get updated as each new OS rolls out, when Adobe ignores or brushes aside important bugs or dismisses the inclusion of core iOS features simply because they aren't also available on Android....
I really like the Actionscript language. It's really easy to understand and great for those of us without a degree in Computer Science. But Adobe needs to get serious about supporting iOS.

Any good tutorials for using jQuery and ColdFusion to build mobile apps

Does anyone know of any good tutorials for using jQuery and ColdFusion to build mobile apps?

Good tutorials for making objects drop or fly in?

I've been using the Adobe CS for years now, but just getting started using After Effects.
I'm trying to make a video where 2D images/objects appear to drop in from above, stay put for a second, and then fly out into the background. I figured tutorials for something this simple would be all over the web, but I've yet to find one exactly like this.
So far I'm assuming it will be something easy like using the scale effect? Any tips or advice are much appreciated!

Just pick a property like position then hold down the alt or option key and click the stop watch or with Position selected go to Animation Add Expression.
Did you try adding the animation preset to a layer in the timeline? Save the animation preset to your animation presets file and then select the layer, position it where you want it to end, then select Animation>Apply Animation Preset> and browse to the preset I sent you. Works with 2D and 3D layers.
The drop in and fly back animation that you want to do will work better with 3D layers and this Animation Preset could easily be modified to move in Z instead of fall out of frame.
It doesn't sound like you are very familiar with expressions. This one is fairly complex. It uses the in point and out point of the layer along with value at time to create the motion. If this looks like greek to you you'd better explain more about what you want to do with the expression.
sif = effect("slideIn Frames")("Slider");
sof= effect("slideOut Frames")("Slider");
// find in and out point
inTime = sif * thisComp.frameDuration;
          if (effect("Match SI SO")("Checkbox") == 0) {
          outTime = sof * thisComp.frameDuration;
          else if (effect("Match SI SO")("Checkbox") == 1) {
          outTime = inTime;
// Fix layer size when scaled
sf = scale - [100, 100];
xSize = width + (width * sf[0]/100);
ySize = height + (height * sf[1]/100);
realSize = [xSize, ySize];
// Set Positions
spx = 0 - realSize[0] + realSize[0]/2 ;
rstx = value [0];
rsty = value[1];
epy = thisComp.height + realSize[1] - realSize[1]/2;
// create movement
freq = effect("bounce Frequency")("Slider");
        amplitude = effect("bounce Amplitude")("Slider");
        decay = effect("bounce Decay")("Slider");
    posCos = Math.abs(Math.cos(freq*time*2*Math.PI));
    y = amplitude*posCos/Math.exp(decay*time);
moveIn = Math.min(linear(time,inPoint,inPoint + inTime,spx ,rstx-y));
moveOut = Math.min(linear(time,outPoint - outTime,outPoint - thisComp.frameDuration,rsty ,epy));
[moveIn, moveOut]

Good tutorials for a kid to work through

My son who is almost 12 is interested in learning flex. I've started him on some very basic stuff but I'm still learning myself and could probably end up teach some bad habits. So, I was wondering, If any of you could suggest some good tutorials that would be simple enough for an 11 yr old to understand. He does read at a high school level but has no programming knowledge.
Thank you!

Just connect to itunes and restore the ipod, when the restore is complete set it as a new ipod. Your problem must be resolved.

Good tutorials for Automator

Hi there,
I was wondering if any of the Automator community could point me in the direction of some good tutorials..
I have a couple of tasks that I want to automate, though I think they require some Apple script at some point too.
1) I run a localhost. I would like to write a automator task that sets up new vHost (based on me entering some values ie: Name and root directory), updates my Hosts file and restarts Apache.
2) I get a lot of deleted domains list sent to me each morning. Im wanting to forward that email to my Wordpress install and auto add posts.. Automator can be set to schedule hey?
3) I would like to be able to publish my clients Analytics reports as they come into my mail box. The reports would need to be published to a different location on the server, so clients would only see their report. I know that Google does have a scheduled email sent, though Im want to set up a one-stop shop, for getting this information.
Do these things sound too far fetched for Automator?
Cheers,
Phil

What are good tutorials for learning the 3d interface in Photoshop?

I'm looking for some good tutorials that will orient me to the basics of working in 3d in PS (primarily concerned with learning how to control the camera and also how to use 3d layers).
Thanks!
Daniel

As it happens, if you ever watch 'The Photoshop Guys' on Kelby TV, they nearly all use MBPs exclusively. I believe one of them also uses a desktop — maybe Cory Barker because he does all the 3D stuff. I'd worry that a laptop that does not specify video RAM, is using onboard video, and not a dedicated video card. The GPU is an important component regards Photoshop performance, so make sure you get it right.

Good tutorials for GarageBand since I'm freaking out?

I want to make my own music entirely using loops (pop, electronic mainly) on GarageBand, but it feels like I hit a speed bump every time I'm on a creative roll. I just don't understand anything about it, and it's really really stressing me out. Are there any good tutorials? Thanks.

Have you already tried the videos in the GarageBand Help? http://help.apple.com/garageband/index.html#button-0
Each of the basic lessons has an introductory video.

Anyone recommends a good book for object oriented programming

I am a college student in computer engineering (Software) and have been programming using Java for over a year. I have become really interested in the design of softwares and the "beauty" of object oriented programming, and thus would like to advance my knowledge about the topic (my university offers an advanced oop class but I would have to wait another 6 months to take it). So my question is, could you recommend me any book that covers the subject of object oriented programming extensively? (I have learned most of the oop I know from "An Introduction to Programming and Object Oriented Design Using Java" by Nino and Hosch.
Thanks in advance

Some years ago I remember cutting my teeth on OOP using an excellent book by Grady Booch. If it's still in print and has been updated, it may be worth a look. Again it was decent. Also consider picking up a book on design patterns. Good luck.
Edit: I found it, it's called "Object-Oriented Analysis and Design with Applications", and it's in its third edition. You can find it here on Amazon.

Can Anyone Recommend Any Good Tutorials For A Beginner?

Hi,
I just purchased Pro Logic 9 and was wondering if anyone knows of any good lessons/tutorials to help a first time user of the Pro Logic series. Im excited to get into this program and record but it is so powerful that it is a bit overwhelming. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I agree with JG99.
+1 macprovideo
I've seen both the lynda and macprovideo logic training. Don't get me wrong the Logic training at lynda is ok for the basics. The macprovideo ones are excellent and go much further. So I could learn in depth how all the instruments, like the EXS24 sampler, Ultrabeat drum machine, synths and plugins work and how to use them. There are proper whole tutorials dedicated to mixing and mastering. For me and my studio buddies macprovideo for final cut, logic and now the photoshop titles has saved us countless hours and a lot of hair!

The macprovideo iPad and iPhone apps rock too!

Recommended tutorials for using paths/vector art in Photoshop?

Hi all!
Can you recommend any good tutorials for using paths/vector art in Photoshop?
Honestly, I've had a good look for even one - without much success.
I Have lots of experience with paths/vector art in Illustrator, Fireworks and InDesign but I believe you really can do great things with them in Photoshop now for illustration work.
i'm just baffled by it. I can fill and stroke and edit a vector shape in PS - but if I custom DRAW a vector path or shape, things get confusing!
Hoping someone can point me in a helpful direction
John

John,
I wouldn't claim to know everything there is to know, but I'm reasonably certain it hasn't changed.
Are the 'shapes' just vector masks with a raster element inside?
Yes. That's an accurate enough description.
And if you apply a colour to a path that you've drawn - does it rasterise?
It doesn't have to rasterize. If you see color, it's pixels.
I was definitely of the impression that a lot more could be done in PS these days that might formerly have been done in ILLUSTRATOR.
The shape/path tools in Photoshop have been enhanced and improved in recent years, but the product of their use still differs from Illustrator's true vector output.

Scriptable mail client with good support for html and flash

Hi,
on one hand I'm looking for the uzbl/luakit/.. equivalent in the mail client world: I want a very high level of control over how mails are fetched, filtered, displayed, scripts, keybinds, etc etc.
On the other hand I also want the client to handle html mails properly, even when they include html5 sound/video clips and/or flash widgets/videos.
This might sound ironic, but I use rss2email to get all my newsfeeds delivered to my mailbox. I think this makes a lot of sense, a centralized repository for all the messages I want to get.
But those newsposts often contain html5 and flash widgets, which I want to be able to use from inside the mailclient.
Also I expect usage of the xdg basedir spec and sane use of files (a simple text config file, and maximum a few binary files for caches/indexes etc)
A good search system based on sup/notmuch/xapian would also be welcome.
I just can't find a mail client like this. Any suggestions? Maybe anything that's close, so I could hack it a bit myself?
Claws-mail is the least sucky client I could find, but still it doesn't give me the advanced scriptability, it makes a mess in my homedir and doesn't support html5/flash.

Thid may take you a bit away from your current setup, but if you have used sup you shouldn't be too scared ;D
Ive started using mutt a while back, and if properly configured it can do a _lot_ of things and very well at that too!
Anyway, to answer your post:
1) Mutt can be configured to retieve your rss feeds, so you dont need to use rss2email and still get a centralilsed repo for your email and rss and, you will be able to keep your email account uncluttered with rss mail (but thats personal preference).
2) Intrinsically, like all CLI mail clients, butt doesnt show html/html5 or embedded flash in email. /BUT/ you can configure it to use a differen program to handle this automatically.
So, you will be able to get say uzbl, or jumanji or surf (if you're into your lightweight browsers) to open those multimedia emails. Edit: it seems you will probably have to use links2, but you may be able to use other clients (they will have to open as a seperate application though, whilst links2 is able to stay embedded. Maybe this can be done with the other browsers but I haven't tried nor researched this.
Generally as: (in .muttrc)
# enriched messages
auto_view text/html # view html automatically
alternative_order text/plain text/enriched text/html # but save it for last
Credit for that snippet goes to something i found on dotfiles. If I ever find the author's name, I shall edit it in here.
You will also need to create a .mailcap file with the relevant data. A basic google search reveals some good tutorials for this.

Compilers with (good) support for c++11

I'm looking for more compilers to cross check and optimize the project I'm working on. As I tested and tried a lot of new c++11 features, those should be supported.
Up to now on my machine I have:
g++ (the good one! )
clang++ (does not support openMP )
icpc (does not support some c++11 as Delegating constructors and User defined literals )
I was wondering if there is something else that I don't know.

Any good tutorial for starting J2ME ?

Dear all, I have written J2SE and J2EE for several years. But I am new to J2ME. I found that there are many packages of J2ME so that i don't how to start to learn it. Do anyone know some good tutorials for me to start J2ME?
Thanks a lot.

This is not a reply, rather an additional question (since I havent figured out how to add a question to the forum). I need to program in J2ME on an embedded processor. I need to know what processors are man enough to support J2ME i.e. what are the hardware constraints. I have searched through the web and cannot find ANYTHING on this, and yet I thought the whole idea of J2ME was that it was portable to various embedded hardware platforms. Can I use a 8051 variant for example or does it need something much celeverer?
