IPad development question

I've installed CS5 and effectively ported a flash application I had developed to my iPhone. Brilliant, fast, and seamless (even if I did have to increase the size of all my buttons to accommodate fingers rather than a mouse)
Here's my question: An attempt to create an iPad version failed. I can successfully install the 320x480 px iPhone app to the iPad, but I cannot create a 1024x768 project in Flash and port it to the iPad. Everything works well to the point of installing it, when iTunes throws up an error.
Has anyone successfully created an app for iPad that is native resolution? The Adobe blog page showed such things, but no one has posted any kind of tip or tutorial to that end.
Any ideas would be very helpful. Thanks!
Granted, yes, the CS5 --> iPod development concept through the iTunes store is a dead issue due to corporate one-upmanship, but there are many of us who do ad-hoc and enterprise deployment who couldn't care less, since we don't need Apple's OK to create apps (^_^)

I think we should really let this thread rest. Adobe has released a iPad packaging update to Flash CS5. I've already documented it's strengths and weaknesses in another thread.
It's great for applications, but poor on mid level performance and above. It can't handle large flv files at a decent framerate or alpha animations very well but it does the trick nicely if you are working on a small project for yourself (not into apple's hands). It's great for prototyping for sure.
You can download it by simply going to the help bar and hitting updates from inside flash cs5 as I recall. Quite simple. No need for the goose chase...

IPad Development Question - Flash CS5

My friends and I were thinking about creating a few games for the iPad. With Flash CS5, there is an option to publish to iOS. With the conflict between Apple and Adobe... If we create a game in Flash and publish it to iOS, would Apple allow it in their App Store?

Widget Development Question

I need help setting margins on my widget with CSS. I have messed around with the margin properties of CSS, but how do they work in a widget environment? When the CSS is in a widget, would the margin be counting from the edge of the background image? In Safari, the margin counts from the edge of the viewing window.
Please Help.
Thanks

Hi, the Apple Discussions are really meant for end users of Apple technologies, so it's usually hard to find answers to development questions here.
However, Apple does have excellent mailing lists (listservs) covering all their technologies for developers. If you post your question to "dashboard-dev" at lists.apple.com, you'll be sure to find a lot of helpful answers there. You can also try the forums at dashboardwidgets.com. Good luck!

Suggestion to iPad developer: the screen is too bright for an E-reader

Hi,
I have been using kindle DX for reading e-book and newspapers for a year. I bought the iPad and have been using for a week. iPad has many advantages over Kindle in many ways(very fast, zoom-in zoom out, great apps for editing PDF, and many more) however, it lacks the appreciation of the display for reading. *_The brightness is quite too high(even when you try to lower the brightness setting to lowest). When I read WSJ or PDF for a while, my eyes go very very tired. It is fine in the apps like Kindle or iBook or GoodReader where you can adjust the brightness even more._* So you could read with the same light intensity like the kindle or other e-reader. However, it is still very bright in safari or WSJ apps where you cannot adjust even further. You cannot use iPad to read something in the dim light environment with this lowest brightness adjustment.
I made an appointment to the Apple store to discuss about this issue. I also compare the brightness adjustment to MacBook and other device. You can eventually dim the screen even more and more for other device except the iPad. You could also dim the brightness even more for an iPhone. The technical support told me to send a suggestion to the iPad developer so that they can do the adjustment for the next OS Update.
*My advice is to increase the range on the dimmer side of the brightness. You could also add the option to adjust for the contrast. In this case, you will have low light coming out of the device and the character is still crisp by lowering the brightness and increase the contrast of the display. The eye strain problem will be significantly reduced.*
Many of my e-reader colleagues also complain about this issues. So I hope you take this into serious consideration. Please Adjust the brightness range and everything else should be perfect. You could even think about the display like Mirasol display for the next generation of iPad as an option for display rather than only IPS LCD. This will help the e-reader oriented like me to stick with iPad forever
I strongly hope there will be some of these changes in the new OS update. Since you guys want the iPad to be one of the option of an e-reader, then the display and the brightness is very very very important.

I adjusted everything including turning the auto brightness off( like I did for my iPhone ). And you could see that the lowest brightness of the iPhone is dimmer than the lowest level for the iPad. I have no problem reading on the iPhone without that level of brightness either. This is the only reason that I don't like about iPad and the small adjustment should satisfy all my need. I don't see any reasons for returning it.
Moreover, the eyes sensitivity to the light level or brightness for each people is different. It's correct that you and some of my friends do not have difficulty reading with this level of brightness. But some of my friends and I are having this problem in safari and the apps that do not have further brightness adjustment.
The best way for me to avoid this problem now it to alight the iPad 75-90 degree to vertical so that the light does not come directly to my eyes when I use the apps that does not contain brightness adjustment. This way reduces the light traveling to the eyes from iPad. The brightness goes down a bit more. That is why I said just reduce the lowest level to a bit more then everything is great.
I also try the inpicio anti glare to reduce the light from reflection but this does not help either because it produces bad image output and does not filter any light out.

Can I get the photos from my ipad developed?

I was wondering if there was a way of getting my photos from my ipad developed?

Sure, you can import them to a computer and then send them to your printing source. There are some third party apps (I don't know them, because I do the first method) that will allow you to send them to the third party company and print them out.

Why are iPhone/iPad Development courses so expensive?

Hi. I recently wanted to start learning about how to make iPhone/iPad apps after having a couple of good ideas for ones. Unfortunately, while I am very Mac proficient and computer savvy, I don't have any experience with coding. It appears you need some basic knowledge of coding to start making apps. But when I search around for online courses, or community college courses for iPhone/iPad development, they are all incredibly expensive, ranging from $1000 to $3,000.
I'm just wondering if anyone can help me understand why these courses are so pricy.
It would seem the best (cheapest) way to learn is to sift through all the free resources on the net and buy a book or two. Does anyone else have any good ideas? I think it would be very helpful to be in a classroom course, but there's no way I can afford thousands of dollars for something I essentially want to do as a hobby.
Thank you!

You would need to ask this of the training company or school offering the course. But it's not inexpensive to hire teachers who know enough about development to teach a class, nor to provide a computer lab in which students can work.
If you want to do this just as a hobby, then the printed materials and web sites offering development help, along with the free course Stanford offers through iTunes U:
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=395605774
would be the way to go. If you have no experience in programming, you'll need to start by learning at least the rudiments of the C programming language before you dive into iOS development.
Regards.

Will selecting 'Delete Account' in iCloud setting on iPad delete the AppleID account, or just delete it from the iPad in question?

Will selecting ‘Delete Account’ in iCloud settings on iPad delete the AppleID account entirely, or will it just delete the AppleID from the iPad in question?
I am trying to resolve a problem where someone tried to set up a second iPad on the same Apple ID account. I have partially solved the problem by creating a new Apple ID for the second iPad, but when I went to change the iCloud setting, my only option to change it was the 'Delete Account' button. I just want to make sure that I'm not going to accidentally delete the old Apple ID account because the fist iPad still needs to sync to that ID.

From the iPhone only.

Which mac pc is good for iPad development in between mac mini or mac book pro

which mac pc is good for iPad development in between mac mini or mac book pro so give me details which is much more better for ios development

The best thing for iOS development is your imagination. Coming up with unique creative apps is what’s most important. I've had a mini since they first came out, and I think it's the best desktop around. However you may not want a desktop because you're more mobile when you work on apps. With the mini you can use a much bigger screen (I use a 80 inch) but the laptop has a slightly better processor (if you decide to pay extra for it). I'm learning app development also and a laptop would drive me crazy, but it's a personal choice, so you first need to decide where you are going to be while you're developing. If it’s at home or a office then the mini might be better. The mini and the macbook pro are both two incredible products. I don’t think you can make a wrong decision as far as which one handles app design better. They’re both great in that department.

Development Question Pertaining to Discoverer and Oracle Apps

Hi All,
I have a Disco Development question. First of all I am in an Oracle Apps environment.
Here is my situation. I received a specification to make sure our End User Layer has the capability to create a workbook
which has the following information in it:
1. Onhand inventory by lot information using the GMF_PERIOD_BALANCES table.
2. Demand pegging (from the msc_demands table) associated with this onhand inventory.
3. Accounting cost information (GL_ITEM_CST information).
4. They also want more detailed item master information information (e.g. catalog descriptive element information and costing category).
Here is a solution to address this:
-Take existing inventory by lot views we have and use the the gmf_period_balances table in lieu of the mtl_onhand_quantity_details table. Within this same
view, add pegging information. This has been implemented in a development environment.
-Take existing costing views (using the component_cost_details table) and replace with the gl_item_cst.
-Take existing view associated with item detail information and make sure all catalog descriptive elements and costing category information have been added.
My next main dilemma for this problem is to address the best way to join these views in the Discoverer end user layer. Here are the approaches I see:
1. Encapsulate the item detail information with the onhand, period end with pegging view. Next, create a join with the costing view.
     pros: In my testing of this, the totalling works with extending item costing (item cost x onhand inventory).
     cons: Refresh times and scalability of this solution are concerning (consider a couple of people using this at the same time). Also, there is no nice
     way to join these two views (there is a n x m relationship between these two views). For instance, the costing calendar is used in the accounting costing
     view, and the general ledger calendar is used in the GMF_PERIOD_BALANCES table.
2. Abandon a two or three view approach. Create an uber view which encapsulates the onhand quantity, pegging, standard costing and item detail information.
     pros: A more simpler end user experience which should then allow for the totalling to work.
     cons: Very easy for an end user to obtain a result set which is part of a cartesian product (e.g. multiple general ledger periods are included in this workbook
     with multiple costing periods). Doubtful that this workbook would be refreshable.
3. Fan trap solution which would be some variation of onhand view being joined to an item details folder which is joined to the pegging details updated.
     pros: Without too much work, I am able to get this to work, except totaling.
     cons: Totaling.
     Please let me know what your thoughts are regarding the best approach.
     Thanks,
     Patrick

Hi,
Where you have complex joins I would always go for a single view. It keeps Discoverer simple and allows you to concentrate performance effort building the view. Generally you can build in conditions to stop a cartesian product.

IPhone 5s Password and iPad App Question

Hello,
I was interested in purchasing my first smartphone and was thinking of getting the iPhone 5s. But I have a few questions I would like to ask before making a decision. Can you run an application (from iTunes) that is for an iPad and run it on an iPhone if the IOS version requirement is high enough? I am hoping I can run the "MyTunesProHD" App which requires IOS 4 or higher. It says that it is compatible with the iPad. But I would like to know if it is also compatible with the iPhone since it is higher than IOS 4.
My next question is concerning the Fingerprint Touch ID feature with the iPhone 5s. Does it have the option of using a standard password like the older iPhones? Or is it Fingerprint Touch ID only? If it is Fingerprint only I will choose a different phone (currently considering the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S4 as an alternative). Personally I don't like the idea of using my fingerprint.
Regards,
Joshua.

Hi Joshua,
The MyTunes Pro app in the iTunes app store shows that it is compatible with both the iPad and the iPhone. So, if the developer has made it compatible with iOS7, then you would be able to use the app you have already purchased for both devices.
You do not have to use the fingerprint security if you don't want to:

Problem installing Adhoc version to iPhone and iPad - Development Environment Is - Adobe Flash CS6

Hi,
I have successfully submitted 2 versions of the application. There are 2 different versions for iPad and iPhone separately. These were developed using Adobe Flash CS6 and AIR SDK - 4.0.0.1628. The category is Lifestyle and app is free.
Now I wanted to add new feature of push notification to both iPad and iPhone versions. I have successfully tested the development version with development profiles and certificates over iPad and iPhone.
Before submitting the app to Appstore I was trying to test the Adhoc version with production environment and profiles but application was not installing to the iPad, it is the same iPad that is used for development. But after searching forums and other help Adhoc version was not installed to iPad the solutions that were tried are as under:
1. Create new certificates and profile for Adhoc
2. Change Entitlement tags in Application xml file
3. Remove existing profiles from iPad to avoid error.
4. Update OS version of iPad to 8.1
But once I try to last point - [4] even development version is not installing. Because there are no provision profiles installed.
Can you please help/guide me how to fix it? I need to test both development and Adhoc versions on the iPad and iPhone.
Some more information -->>

Master iPad configurator question concerning cart syncing with different versions of iPads.

I have a question concerning configurator syncing.Can the master iPad be a different version of iPad than the other synced iPads? For instance can iPad 2 be the master iPad to a group of iPad Air's? The iPad 2 has some fewer capabilities than the Air, would some settings or restrictions be left off of the iPad Airs if they were set up this way? Thanks.

There is no such thing as 'master iPad'. If you're using Configurator or Profile Manager control of the setup is done from a Macintosh.

Oracle BAM 11g - Deployments and development questions

Hi!
I have few questions related to Oracle BAM 11g developement and deployment processes. We are going to use that together with Oracle SOA Suite 11g ( BPEL / BPM processes), and now my questions are related to development phase:
1. If we have two or more Oracle BAM developers with their own Oracle BAM server instances, and we would like to share our development work, should/can we you same database repository to share the reports, data objects?
2. How we can copy Oracle BAM Data Objects, Reports etc from one environment (dev) to other environments (test, accept test, integration test, production) ? In software deployment projects (like Spring or Grails web-projects) we have used version control system and CI to build packages to different environments etc. How is the Oracle BAM deployment process actually "planned to be" since it uses its database repository to store objects and reports ?
3. The Oracle BAM itself has nice reports etc (Oracle BAM Client) that can be used using IE browser. How if we have to show/include those reports from Oracle WebCenter Spaces ? Is it possible and how?

Hi,
Were you able to find the answer to your questions? Especially the one, showing BAM reports in Webcenter Spaces?

IPad Screen Question

Not sure if this is a silly question, but - my 8-year-old nephew is visiting and is totally into my (brand-new) iPad. Thing is, he has a raging head-cold... sinus congestion, sneezing, etc. I cringe when he sneezes or even just touches the screen. Anyone have any idea if the Apple-provided wipe will 'sanitize' the screen? If not, does anyone have any ideas of how to truly clean the screen? Thanks much!

Anyone have any idea if the Apple-provided wipe will 'sanitize' the screen?
What "Apple-provided wipe"?
Unless it says it disinfects, it won't.
any ideas of how to truly clean the screen?
To clean it, use a soft cloth.
To disinfect, use a Lysol (or similar) disinfecting wipe then use a soft cloth to clean it.

IPad Mini Questions

Hi, so I was recently thinking about purchasing an Ipad Mini for like an entertainment movie luxury for my mother instead of using my Macbook. I know that you can purchase an lightning to VGA adapter so we could use this capability but the real question is: Can I hook My Ipad Mini into my t.v, using an lightning to VGA adapter and change the iPad Mini at the same time? Please and thank-you and happy mothers day!

No you cannot do this although third party cables and connectors are continually appearing all the time.
However, to do what you are trying to do, it might be worth considering also getting an Apple TV unit. This will allow you to play out form your MacBook and your ipad to the TV wirelessly. You will also be able to keep it plugged and and charge it at the same time.
Whilst the Apple TV will cost a little bit more you will at least not need to buy the VGA / lightening cable which is also not cheap.
Something definitely worth considering and it is what I do.
