How do I design/program a simple app for an iPad?

Hi, I don't even know where to start.
What program is used to design apps for iPads?
The app in mind is a simple application with my videos and the user is able to select which video they want to watch by picking it. I would also want the app to be locked so that the user cannot wander freely around the iPad.
Thanks in advance!

How to design socket client-server app for 2-way communication

Hi, I am writing a client-server application. I have a single server and many clients. Each client will need the ability to send information to the server at any time. The server will also need the ability to send information to a client at any time. Its this second part that I am not sure how to design. Would I need to create a SocketServer on each client to accept incoming messages, or is there a better way? Thanks

Don't my requirements sound a lot like an IM application, where a chat server might need to send a message to a chat client at any time?Not really. If that is what you are designing
in my opinion one could easily be forgiven for thinking you were deliberately obfuscating your goal...
How does the server know where the client is? Does it know the IP address of the client?I would imagine the server would contain a directory of IPs? I'm not sure.
What happens if the client is not running?Then I guess the message would not get delivered.
What happens if the client is behind a firewall that does not allow incoming connections?How do IM chat clients work? How have people solved this in the past?Typically the server would only care about clients currently connected to the server.
Maybe you should re-think your design. I don't really have a design, just requirements, that's why I'm writing this post.Your subject says "+How to *design* socket client-server app for 2-way communication+".
Are you saying you expect someone else to do the design for you?

How do I stop itunes from transferring apps from my ipad or iphone to my pc ?

How do I stop iTunes from transferring apps from my iPad or iPhone to my PC ? I have App sync turn off and I have add files to library turned off. Yet every time
I sync iTunes transfers all my apps to my PC. I have 20-30 gig of apps on each. A lot of them are 1gig each and it takes for ever to sync , plus I don't want 100 gig of apps just sitting on my hard drive for no reason. Any app I ever want is always available in the cloud so what's the point of having them on my PC in the 1st place?

I'm pretty sure that the space is used up on your computer's hardrive.
Anyway my solution to this nuisance of apps/itunes transfer was to allow itunes to download the apps from my phone...
...First of all I had tried to uncheck a few boxes in itunes a) automatically sync when device is connected (in the summary section) b) prevent devices from syncing (edit>preferences>devices) and c) Automatically sync new apps (apps section of device)
HOWEVER, when I would click sync in any section, apps tried to transfer to itunes from my iphone.
So after all my apps went on my computer (approx. 9 GB), I checked the boxes back, disconnected my device and deleted all the apps from itunes and my computer simultaneously (by clicking del/move to recycle bin).
Now when I connect my iphone it does it's backup/sync thing automatically ...but no apps try to transfer
Note: apps from your library cannot be set to sync with your device
I can now also click sync in any section and no apps transfer.
(This problem started when I downloaded an app from itunes rather than my device and I later transfered the app to my device. My apps section in itunes is completely empty now and no apps appear in windows explorer either)
the only thing I am unsure of now is; what's going to happen if I purchase an app from itunes on my pc again ...I'm guessing I'll have to repeat the process (might want to avoid that)

Please help if you can: I accidentally deleted the IPOD app for my IPAD 3. I need it to enable HOME SHARING. How can I restore or reinstall it? It is not an app I bought, it came on the IPAD from Apple.

HT2534 How to use my account to purchase apps on other iPad (which is not under my name)

How to purchase apps for other iPad (which is not under my name)?

If it is not your iPad, then you shouldn't be purchasing content for someone else. They should use their own Apple ID to purchase.
If you want to help them out with purchases, buy them an iTunes gift card or gift them apps from the App Store.

How do I get prechesed games an apps on my iPad ?

You can either buy/download them directly on the iPad via the App Store app, or buy/download them on your computer's iTunes and then sync them to your iPad - connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and then on the right-hand side use the Apps tab to select and sync the apps to it

How can I stop iphone updating same app with my Ipad

NEED HELP FINDING THE RIGHT APP FOR MY IPAD!!!!!!!!!!!

I'M TRYING TO FIND A APP FOR MY IPAD THAT YOU CAN TYPE A LETTER OR PRESENTATION THEN CLICK PRINT AND IT WILL GO TO A WIRELESS PRINTER!!!!!!

There are a large number of word processing programs available. A simple app store search in the productivity section will bring up a wide range, from Docs2Go to Pages and many in between. There are also simple text editors, such as Elements and others which are cheaper, but not as full featured.
For printing, you need an HP printer that supports AirPrint. No special app on the iPad will allow you to print to any printer, just to those that are AirPrint enabled.
Being on a PC, I don't know of any other printing options. If you have a Mac available, you can install Printopia, and print wirelessly to any printer your Mac can print to.

I downloaded 3D human body app for my iPad this did not go to my iTunes app folder it went to the app folder on my imax now i cannot get it to download to my iPad help

I downloaded 3d human body organs app for my ipad. This did not go to my itunes app folder, instead it went to my app folder on my mac. How can i transfer this to my ipad. Have tried a lot things but nothing works. thanks

Is this the culprit?
If so, it is definitely a Mac version. I could not find a similar program on the App Store for iOS devices. There is a Body Organs 4 Kids App, but it doesnt appear to have the same type of detail.

Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:
Restoring iPod to factory settings

HT2534 I have money on my iTunes account. Can I purchase apps for my iPad with this credit?

I have a credit on my iTunes account. Can I purchase apps for my iPad with this credit and how do I do it?

Yes. You can use any funds that you have available in iTunes for the App Store, iTunes, iBooks or the Mac App Store. Just go to the app store and tap on the app that you want to download. If the credit is available, it will be deducted from your account when you make the purchase.
You can swipe to the bottom of the featured tab in the app store to view your account balance.

What is the best and easiest print app for the iPad and iPhone?

What is the best and easiest print app for the iPad?

Richard-
The best and easiest is to use the iPad's built-in AirPrint system with an AirPrint-capable printer. <iOS: AirPrint 101>
If you do not have an AirPrint-capable printer, all printing Apps are a compromise. I have an HP non-AirPrint printer connected to my WiFi router. The free HP App, ePrint Home & Biz works OK with photos.
Print n Share and PrintCentral each have their own browser, mail, text and photo programs that work well with the printer, but they can only be accessed from within other programs that have the "Open In" option. (So far, I think GoodReader is the only App I have with that option.)
You can run a program like Printopia or FingerPrint on your computer that will share its printer as AirPrint over WiFi. They both are reported to work well. However your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print. <Printopia for Macintosh> <FingerPrint for PC and Mac>

Why can't one use the apps for the ipad on one's iMac?

how come one cannot actually use the apps that one purchases (or gets for free) on one's desktop computer? For instance, I just paid for and downloaded a few apps for my iPad (using iTunes of course) but my wife has my iPad and she is out-of-town for a few days. Now I gotta wait (to use them & check them out) by waiting for her to get back, .... then i gotta sync it. Bah, ... humbug.

i kinda knew the answer to that already... i am just like a kid at christmas, ... waiting, ... waiting.... waiting until my wife comes home and then i will say, ... "oh, it is so great to see you, i missed you" then give her a hug and a kiss and then say "where's the iPad, dear?".
