Development questions should go in the development forums.
iPhone development requires an Intel Mac.
From the SDK readme:
Compatibility with Mac OS X Versions
iPhone SDK requires an Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X Leopard version 10.5.7 or
later. Xcode 3.1.3 is also available separately for Mac-only development and is
compatible with Intel and PowerPC Macs running Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 and later.

  • Hi, I upgraded my iphone 4 to iso 5 beta 6, but now it shows "No Service" at top left, and unable to complete your activation. Also tels that this device is not registered as part of the iphone developer programme. How could I fix this problem? Please..?

    Hi, I upgraded my iphone 4 (4.3.3) to iso 5 beta 6, but now it shows "No Service" at top left, and unable to complete your activation. Also tells that "this device is not registered as part of the iphone developer programme." How could I fix this problem? Please help me...,

    I had a similar occurrence with my just activated iPhone 4.
    I had been using the phone for three days when an odd occurrence with voice mail caused me to call tech support. After some discussion they decided to push the activation to my phone (even though I had been using it for three days). When I went to power it back up again I repeatedly got the "no service" notification. I got tech support on a land line and we tried hard reboots and so on. No joy. They told me to take it in to the point of sale and either the SIM card or the phone needed (or both) needed replacing.
    I tried one last hard reboot after dinner and the phone came up with service, but I took it in to the point of sale in the morning and they swapped the SIM card out and I went to a Genius Bar appointment to get the phone checked out. It is supposedly OK, but I am still having some problems when syncing it so I will have to visit the Genius Bar again tomorrow about that. At least I have not experienced the "no service" problem in the roughly 24 hours since the SIM card was replaced. (Fingers crossed)

  • Problem starting iPhone development

    I've been following the iPhone developer program user guide step by step, and up until the "Adding Devices" step, everything has gone well.
    My problem starts at the step labelled "Installing OS X iPhone"...
    I acquired my iPhone 3G just after the July 11th launch, and it came with iPhone Software 2.0 installed, of course, specifically version 5A345. Now the developer guide says to "Download the OS X iPhone Disk Image (.dmg) from the iPhone Dev Center for the Apple device you are using. ", but there is no longer any link to an iPhone Disk Image on the dev center site, I assume because the 2.0 software is now no longer a special download.
    The guide indicates that you must use Xcode to detect the iPhone and set it to "Use for Development", which I can do. But then it goes on to give instructions for installing the 2.0 software by restoring the phone using the downloaded iPhone 2.0 disk image, which isn't available off the dev site.
    So, a couple of questions:
    1. Since my iPhone 3G already has version 2.0 (5A345) of OS X iPhone installed, do I need to "restore" to a different version of the 2.0 software?
    2. If so, is the version I need 5A347? Or is it some special development-only version of the software?
    I should mention that in my search on the internet for a solution, I read that you could go from version 5A345 to 5A347 of the 2.0 software by using iTunes 7.7 and hitting the Restore button. I tried this, but I get an error message saying:
    "Software for this iPhone is not currently available. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and try again."
    I do have the latest version of iTunes, and I'm a little disturbed that I can't upgrade to the very latest version of the 2.0 software this way. But maybe it isn't needed.
    I would prefer not to do something bad and corrupt or brick my iPhone, so if anyone knows what I'm missing or if I can continue without worrying, I'd love some kind of assistance.
    Thanks in advance!

    5A345 is the version of the final beta of the iPhone 2.0 software and is what most (if not all) iPhone 3Gs shipped with.
    5A347 is the "latest" version and is what original iPhone users that did not participate in the beta received when the iPhone 2.0 software became available.
    The SDK instructions are outdated, and the instructions to install a DMG from the development site are no longer needed. Just use the standard iPhone 2.0 software.
    5A345 is tagged as being "equivalent" to 5A347 through iTunes, so it's not likely that you need 5A347. However I have spoken with people who have been told by Apple support to upgrade to 5A347 in an attempt to fix a problem they were having. If you want to run 5A347, simply do a a "force restore" on your iPhone 3G: (1) ensure your device is not connected to your computer; (2) turn off your iphone; (3) launch iTunes; (4) press and hold the "home" button on your iPhone while connecting the device to the computer using the cable; (5) iTunes should detect a device in "recovery mode" and offer to download and install the latest version of the iPhone software. Note that your device will be erased, so ensuring that you have a backup before hand is probably a good idea.

  • Error when activating my iPhone Developer Program membership

    Ive just paid 99 dollars for my iphone developer program, and recieved an email containing the activation code. As you probably know, youre supposed to click on this activation-code and it links you to another site. But instead of activation I recieve this error-message on this site:
    "We are unable to activate your iPhone Developer Program membership because we are unable to successfully verify your identity. Please contact us and reference Enrollment ID# XXXXXXXXXX for further assistance."
    There was no problem verifying my identity when I paid for it. How come thats an issue now?
    Since people seem to have to wait for enormous periods of time to get even the simplest questions answered by Apple regarding the Dev Program, I thought I post this here to see if someone else have come across this, and what to do about it (except for waiting indefinitely).

    Mine got activated after a few days with no need for further information from me so if you get that same message you probably don't need to worry.

  • Request for iPhone developer forum

    There has been a recent influx of new iPhone developers in the developer forums. They often don't identify their problem as being specific to the iPhone. You have to look at what they are talking about and see that it is all iPhone stuff. Apparently the iPhone SDK is significantly different enough that answers to basic questions for MacOS X development are not correct for the iPhone SDK.
    If there were an iPhone SDK forum they might be more inclined to put iPhone-specific questions in there.

    I completely agree with the previous sentiments for an iPhone developer forum. Why?
    I am part of the problem. I have come into the Apple development process "solely" to work on the iPhone. I know nothing about Mac OS X. Because of that I was astounded that the iPhone documentation was not "iPhone" but rather Xcode documentation. Yes I understand that there is a great deal of overlap BUT from my point of view it looks as though Apple was extremely lazy in just dumping all of their code and documentation on the iPhone developer. They need about 5 editors to weed out what is and is not iPhone. Just my two cents.

  • IPhone development

    Hi there,
    Firstly let me say that I am aware of the many posts very similar to this across this board and the web, but I feel it would benefit me more to have an answer tailored more to my specific questions.
    I want to get into developing applications for iPhone. I've had an inclination to do so ever since Apple released the SDK but it's always been something at the back of my mind and I've only just started feeling ready to get going with it all.
    The problem is, I just don't know where to start. I understand it's a load of work and a lot of learning, but this is a personal project and I'm not looking to make a small fortune from an app I made in 5 minutes, nor am I seeking fame and fortune by developing some incredible app that 10 million people download. If I manage to get an app written I'll be more than satisfied and take it from there.
    I have little to no programming knowledge, certainly not in any areas relevant to iPhone development. I work in graphic design and have done a fair bit of web design, covering the basic-intermediate areas of javascript/php but never anything more complex than that.
    If it means getting a good grounding in a programming language before I even register for the SDK then that's fine. If I can learn the programming alongside the iPhone development, even better but I don't even know which language I should be learning!
    So I suppose I just need a bit of guidance on what books I should be looking for, on which languages... or maybe some good websites or blogs that have some great info for total beginners. Just info on where to start!
    Many thanks in advance!

    Fantastic, thanks for the reply/link Tamara.
    Just one more quick question.
    Is Objective C a language that can be learned on it's own (keeping in mind I have no programming background) or does it have a prerequisite language or one that is best learned initially?
    Thanks

  • Using multiple systems for Iphone development?

    Hi,
    I have been using a borrowed macbook to start with IPhone development.
    Today I purchased my own MacBook and after installing the IPhone SDK, I plugged in my IPhone and was presented with a message saying that my IPhone was flagged as development on another machine. I had an option to continue or quit, so obviously I continued.
    Will this cause any problems further down the line?
    Has my IPhone been 'reflagged' as a development for my Macbook?
    Thanks

    Can we use c++ to develop applications for iPhone
    Yes.
    .... If so, how it is advantageous over objective C ?? ...
    It's disadvantageous since the only top layer API available for native iPhone apps is Cocoa. Every time a C++ program needs to make a call into the UIKit framework, it must use Obj-C and it may be necessary to wrap that Obj-C in additional code to implement the interface. While Xcode (with a little help from gcc) makes it easy to mix C++ with Obj-C in the same file, a C++ class can't be made from an Obj-C parent and vice-versa.
    Common reasons for using C++ in an iPhone app are: 1) A static library that wants a C++ interface is needed; 2) An app written in C++ is being ported to the iPhone; 3) The developer is much more comfortable with C++ and wishes to avoid Obj-C as much as possible. This can work if most of the app is OpenGL for example. In that case, only one short Obj-C file is necessary and most of that will be available as a Cocoa template.
    Hope that answers your question!

  • No certificate for identifier "iPhone Developer"

    Hi,
    I have a problem, although I successfully registered as a iPhone Developer I cannot test my applications on my iPod Touch. I get the build error: +no certificate for identifier "iPhone Developer"+...
    When I first connected my iPod Touch to my Mac when I had opened Xcode, I got promted If I wanted to use it as a developing device. I clicked on "no", thinking I would be asked the next tme again but I was never again asked. How do I configure my iPod Touch so that I can develop on it?
    The only relating certificate in my tool chain is called:
    "+Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority+"
    But putting this in the info.plist file as "Any iPhone OS Device" doesn't help either, nor does my name do.
    Thanx for any help!
    cheers Sebus

    Hi,
    now after installing the beta 7, I get this message when I try to build on the iPodTouch:
    "+No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected.+"
    My iPod Touch is connected...
    I know this is very basic but I want to start get going and not be held up at this stage...
    thank you very much!

  • IPhone Development - Switching Views

    First, let me mention that this post may be in the wrong forum, so if that is the case, please let me know to repost.
    Next, my question is very simple. I have two views. The first has a button. The second has some text. I want to switch from the first, which loads when the app starts, to the second. This should be pathetically easy, but I have yet to figure out how it's done. At this point, their must be a fundamental problem with the way that I am thinking about how Windows and Views are managed, because based on my current beliefs, I cannot figure the rest out. I have created several "1-View" applications and, for what I am trying to do, have created several Views each of which do what I want them to do. But, I cannot find a way to switch from one to the other. I go to several homemade videos of people doing it, but no two people do it the same way and they all have their own little tricks to getting it done. This leads me to believe that it's not simply a matter of a lack of documentation by Apple, but that Apple doesn't even have a standard. Instead the have several hacked-together solutions that each can kind-of work depending on the situation.
    Here is the way I am conceptualizing it and maybe someone can show me the error in my thinking. I create a View-based application for the iPhone. I believe that the AppDelegate class that is created for me appears to really just be a Window/View manager class in that it keeps track of the one and only Window and manages which View is currently being displayed in that Window. Then, there is the MainWindow.xib file which is really confusing, because it simply populates itself with whatever is in the ViewController.xib file. It's never even mentioned in any of the code I am given. I imagine it is mentioned elsewhere, but that is irrelevant.
    Now, the ViewController.xib file is used along with Interface Builder to create a View from Widgets and link those Widgets' references and corresponding actions to class variables and methods in its corresponding ViewController.h and ViewController.m files. So, it would follow then, that if I wanted to create a second View, so that when a button on the first view was clicked a new, second View would be shown, I would create a new "View.xib" file and corresponding .h and .m files for it. Then, I have a method in my AppDelegate that takes a UIView object and removes whatever view is currently the subview of the window and adds the parameterized view as the new subview. This is also where I would put my transitions.
    Now, the new View that I just created doesn't contain the Title Bar or whatever it's called where the battery monitor icon, carrier icon, etc. exist, so this means that whenever I am actually putting Widgets in the View I have to just remember to avoid it and that the "auto-alignment" thing is off. So, I try other options, and create a new "Window XIB". This blows my freakin' mind, because it appears to be what I want despite it being called a Window and not a View. So, I try the "Write Class File", and it creates a new class called UIWindow which is a subclass of UIView. But wait, aren't Views supposed to be what populates the Windows, and UIWindow is a class that already exists. AHHH!!!!
    So, I rename the class to SecondView and create an instance of it in the AppDelegate. Now, I go into the AppDelegate.m file and change "window addSubview:viewController.view" to "window addSubview:secondView.view" (Edit: Brackets aren't allowed, so I am using quotes in their place here.) which doesn't compile, because it is a subtype of UIView which doesn't have a view member variable, only UIViewController does. So, I change it to make it a subclass of UIViewController which has a view member variable, and it compiles and shows a blank white screen of which neither of my views look like. Then, I go shoot myself in the face. It would appear that I need to link the new SecondView class to the SecondView.xib file somehow.
    It appears that the AppDelegate class should manage nothing and should only have a single UIWindow object that it loads. Then, the View Controller which has a View object should really have an array of all Views and should populate its view object with the currently needed View. This would make sense except that of all the How-tos I have seen none of them do it this way. I am sure that I didn't say everything that I need to say, but at this point I am so infuriated that I cannot think straight.
    <rant>
    I have developed in several different environments, and I have never come across such a simple and common concept implemented in such a convoluted way. Maybe I am simply missing something obvious, here, but if that's the case, Apple please please please make the documentation far less cryptic. I feel like I'm walking blindly through a jungle when I try to read the How-to documentation on your site. If I need to know some information about some class then it is relatively easy to get to, but trying to figure out how to actually do something within iPhone development is painful.
    I began trying to develop for the iPhone by just diving in and seeing what happened. That sort of failed, so I began reading your online help documentation and believe I took a step backwards. Finally, I bought a book on Objective-C that concluded with creating an iPhone app. I read it in a few days and now feel that I am rather proficient with the language as well as creating applications on the iPhone as long as they only consist of a single View in the ViewController class. All I want to do is switch from one View to another, and it shouldn't be this hard.

    Well odds are you won't find what you are looking for here unless another developer happens to come here. These forums all withing the support area are user to user forums to help with issues of usage, repairs, etc.
    Doesn't the developer area where you signed up to be a developer have forums?

  • Iphone email problem-has anyone had a problem caused by the VPN app, Hotspot Shield?

    Has anyone had an iPhone email problem associated with the VPN app, Hotspot Shield?

    I just want to make a record for the Apple Community. After installing Hotspot Shield on my iPhone 5, I developed a host of email problems including erratic reception and recurrent failures to send emails. I called Apple Support and, after standard repair measures failed (like deleting email accounts and reinstalling them) was advised to try deleting Hotspot Shield.
    Removal of Hotspot Shield was unexpectedly difficult (simple deletion of the icon that works with other Apps did not suffice). With the help of Apple Support, the Hotspot Shield app was finally eradicated. The result was that all the email problems disappeared.
    Again, I just wish to make this record of iPhone email trouble clearly caused by Hotspot Shield available in case someone else runs into the same problem. I did not contact Hotspot Shield but the point is that I began with an email problem that was mysterious to Apple Support and we finally traced it to a recent installation of Hotspot Shield.

  • IPhone Developer Program (Apple Online Store not available in my country)

    I registered to the iPhone Developer Program (at the beginning of the beta) and a few weeks back i received an e-mail from Apple, that i can enroll to the Developer Program. I clicked on the link in the e-mail, and it brought me to a country selection page, where i had to select which country's Apple Online Store i want to use to purchase the product (the Apple Developer Program). The problem is my country (Hungary) don't have an Online Store, so i couldn't finish the enrollment process.
    Can anyone help me about this issue? Is there any other way to purchase it?

    Any news about it?
    I got the same problem...

    Well, you downloaded a bootleg copy of iOS 7 beta and have installed it on your phone without being a developer. It has bricked your phone and you cannot get help here because doing what you did has voided your warranty. Have a nice day.

  • How long does it take to be an "official iPhone Developer?"

    I decided that I wanted to be a iPhone developer a couple of days after the March announcement. So I filled out the contact information, and of course got the reply that the beta program was full.
    Fast forward to July 14th, when I got a email from the iPhone Dev folks that my application was being reviewed. It is now July 26th, and I still haven't got an answer back. Does it really take this long to even become a developer??? Can someone get turned down? If so, why? Do you have to tell Apple what you plan to develop?
    I have never had to go through such hoops to become a developer for any other platform. You just pay your money and bang there your are, if you even need that. I'm not an official OS X developer because, I really don't need pre-released software.
    Also, since all I want to do is just run my own apps on my own iPhone/touch, do you really have to get the official stamp of approval for Apple to get a 'signature"? Do you have to go through Apple to even distribute your apps, even if you may or may not sell them?
    Finally, is there anyway to get a file to your iPhone application to read outside of adding it to your application's resources, or create a socket and read it in?
    Thanks,

    I signed up to be an iPhone developer two days ago and today I have my app running on my iPhone. It takes less than a day to get signed up. BUT, you need to watch out for one thing. When I originally placed my order for the $99 SDK I seemed to have checked some tax related checkbox I shouldn't have. The order completed as expected. But 36 hours later I had no email showing the order and I wasn't accepted yet. So I logged into my account on the Apple online store and looked at my order history. Sure enough, my order had a big red flag (not literally) stating I needed to fax in some tax exemption form. What? So I called the 800 number on the bottom of the screen. Since I'm an individual this shouldn't have been required. The guy on the phone sent me over to the small business dept who took care of the issue and the next day I had all my emails showing I was in the program.
    So if you sign up these days and it takes more than a day, check your order status.
    Enjoy,
    Rick
