Learning to create a cooking recipe App

I would like to learn how to create a Mac app for managing cooking recipes similar to MacGourmet. Over the years I have used many Windows and Mac cooking programs. Most are good but I would like to assemble features I prefer. I assume it must be database driven. I know how to write websites (but not javascript) using Dreamweaver and I took a few SQL classes years ago. I do enjoy working with computers. With Lion coming soon, I would like to learn using the latest OS. Eventually I would like to distribute and perhaps sell my program.
I must wait until the upcoming fall semester to enroll in any college courses. I thought about starting at lynda.com with Objective-C Essential Training or perhaps a few books.
Any help to get started would be appreciated. Thank you.

You've stated your goals....what help do you need from others here, specifically?
Seen this? iPhone Developer Beginner Resource Guide
Books on Cocoa...ok. Books on iOS...don't bother. Pay the dev fees and use the resources there.
Good luck in any case.

Recipes app iPhone?

Hi!
I have been sarching for an app where I can create my own recipes (pictures and text) via computer and have it synced into my iPhone. In this app I also want to get a grocery list for the recipes that I choose. I go grocery shopping once a week and instead of writing the groceries down each time, I would like to have them automatically added. Example:
Week 10
I choose 5 dinners = Meal A, B, C, D, E.
In meal A you need 500g minced meat, 2 potatoes.
When I choose this meal I want to have 500g minced meat and 2 potatoes added to the grocery list.
Does anyone know if this exists? I have searched but not found anything that is near this. Not Bento either... I am so sick and tired of having the recipes on either google doc (awesome Note in iPhone), print outs in a folder or in the recipe books. I want it all electronically. Planning to put an iPad on the cupboard in my kitchen. I often google recipes and want to "copy paste" them into the recipe app.

Adobe Reader does not support iCloud at the moment. You can share your documents by saving them to Acrobat.com. Acrobat.com documents can be accessed across iOS, Android and the a desktop browser.

I get an error message 'Cannot create session cookie'

Hello,
This is the exact error message I receive:

No idea what causes it, but it does happen. Try this.....
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.
Or this ....
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again.

Suggestions for a cooking recipe web server application

I have my own web server running the WordPress software for our family blog. I'd like to run a web server application that will allow us to add and view cooking recipes. The only thing I've been able to find so far are three WordPress plugins: one is out of date, and the other two integrate rather awkwardly with WordPress.
I'm looking for something rather simple: a web server application I can run to allow us to easily see our family recipes. A stand alone application (not a WordPress plugin) is actually preferred. Well, actually, any suggestion about any possible solution is preferred.
Does anyone know of a cooking recipe web server application?
Thank you!
(By the way, the reason I keep saying "cooking recipe" is because, apparently, "recipe" means something special in the web development world. Makes doing Internet searches for my problem a little tricky. )

There might be a Django app for that. You can plug Django apps in one big project (ex. a blog, cooking recipes, portfolio, etc). I can't explain it well, you might want to read about Django on the official website.

IPad User Guide "Chocolate Chip Cookies" Recipe

In the "iPad Users Guide", at the top of page 17, there's a graphic demoing the app "Notes".
What's written there is a chocolate chip cookie recipe, but it's too small to read.
So I screengrabbed that page, blew it up & copied down the recipe.
Here, forthwith, it is ....
Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter (softened)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 cup oatmeal
2 cups chocolate chips
Optional: 1 cup chopped nuts
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, sugar and
vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Add eggs, mix well. Add flour gradually. Stir in
oatmeal, chips and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto baking sheet. Bake at
375 degrees for 9 to 11 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes.
Enjoy!
I thought it'd be fun to write this & see if anyone else makes 'em, and, if so, their review of 'em.
OK -- this isn't in the purview of Apple's BBS but I figured: What the hey ? lol
If they remove it, they remove it -- that's how it goes.
But if they don't, well ....
YIPPEE !!!!

You had me at cookies.
But if you leave out the oatmeal what needed to be added?
I love food Easter eggs ( no pun intended)

Error while creating a task for creating an generic task /app/dac/CustomSQ

Hi ,
I have created a sql file in DAC server /app/dac/CustomSQLs/ ,just to fire an update sql in database
In DAC task tab i have created a task with the following:
Command for incremental load :/app/dac/CustomSQLs/DBNameBeforeLoad.sql
Primary source :flatfileconnection

Execution type:SQL FILE
Task phase:GENERAL
I created subject area and assembled ,then created a Execution plan.

Does my above configuration is correct ..?

verify the following settings:
1. mapping of ECC plant and storage location and logical system number with the appropriate availability group code since this links the stock types in EWM to ECC org elements (SPRO -> EWM -> Interfaces -> ERP Integration -> Goods movement)
2. ensure the availability group configuration is correct (SPRO -> EWM -> GR Process -> Configure availability group for putaway) - check all applicable nodes in this configuration since the availability group code is assigned in the pertinent storage types

How do I create an iPad dps app that needs a password to enter?

I need to create an iPad dps app for a corporate client and they have asked the question if after download, we can have it password protected to enter?
If so how do I go about this? so the app has a log in page once loaded?

You'd need to create a custom HTML store/library and build that into the application, and have that page request the password. This is a DPS Enterprise feature, it isn't available in pro or single edition.

I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service?

I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service? I don't want to print it on our home printer - I want to print multiple copies for family members through the Apple iPhoto book printing service. Can anyone help me please?

There is no Apple print service for iBooks, and iPhoto can also only print photo books created in iPhoto.
Print your iBook to pdf. Then you have several option:
Save the pdf to a thumbsdrive/stick and take it to the nearest print shop close to your home.
Search online for "self publishing" services available in your country.
Recreate your book as an iPhoto Book. This will be a lot of work, since iPhoto's templates are more suitable for Picture books than books with lots of formatted text. To speed things up, you could use "Preview" to export the pages of your book as jpegs (high quality, at least 300 dpi) and add themas full-page photos to a new PhotoBook. This can be sent to apple for printing.
But the first two options would be much less trouble and probably be less expensive.

This is very disappointing, and i find it hard to believe that Apple would do this intentionally. It worked on previous versions of email application.

This absolutely ***** ... What a stinker.....
I can't think of anything more idiotic than invoking the memory of Jobs here. Are you truly unaware that the iPad and iOS is pretty much exactly the way he wanted it to be, just like about everything else Apple?
As to your claim of "previous email applications", certainly none in iOS ever did that, and the only folders you can create and manipulate in POP accounts are those local to only that single machine or platform, not particularly helpful or desirable in today's environments.
