Looking for iPhone emulator for MBP..?
I'm looking for iPhone (or iPad) emulator for Mac. There's some software I need to run for work that only available for them, and I'd like instead to run them on my Mac.
Anything available?
Cheers!
A bit of Googling confirms what I thought. You can only runs apps in the simulator that you have the source code to. When the SDK compiles an App, different code is used in the simulator to what is sent to the AppStore.

Unable to load Facebook on MBP in any browser - looking for more information
I have searched the Internet far and wide trying to figure out what is wrong, but every suggestion I have tried has failed. So here is my question:
Last night, I turned on my MBP and tried to log onto Facebook. I use Google Chrome as my default browser. Chrome was unable to connect to www.facebook.com. I tried in Safari also with no luck. Facebook seems to be the only web site I cannot connect to. Over the same wifi connection, I was able to connect to Facebook from my home PC, my iPad, and my iPhone (the actual web site and thru the app).
This morning, I brought my MBP to work to try again. Same problem. I cannot access Facebook from my MBP, but I can from my work PC and my other iOS devices. I even tried turning Personal Hotspot on my iPad and connected my MBP to that. Still no luck.
Based on everything I've read online, I've done many things to try to resolve this. I've cleared my cache and cookies, I've rebooted my MBP several times, I've flushed my DNS. I've even tried using Open DNS. I even tried some of the more ridiculous sounding ideas, like changing the date on my MBP. I am currently running Sophos in hopes that maybe the reason this is happening is because of some malware or trojan or something. The only thing I HAVEN'T done yet is completely reinstalled Mountain Lion. Honestly, I would rather avoid having to try this approach, as it seems that is a slightly extreme approach to fixing what should be a relatively straightforward problem to diagnose.
I've been racking my brain, trying to think of any updates I could have done in the last day or two that might have caused this very specific problem. According to System Information, the last set of updates I probably made right before this problem manifested were for Microsoft Office. I'm showing "Office 2011 14.2.5 Update", "Microsoft Error Reporting for Mac", and the very cryptic sounding "Plugin" as all having been installed yesterday. Based on the times each was installed, "Plugin" was not installed with the Office updates, so I'm wondering if maybe that is the culprit. Unfortunately, I have no more information than that.
I guess what I'm looking for are ideas on how I can better diagnose what is going on. I've tried the solutions people have posted online to no avail. If I knew what was happening behind the scenes, that might help me figure out what I really need to do to get this working again, before I'm forced to resort to a reinstall of Mountain Lion that may or may not even resolve this issue. If anyone has better ideas on what could be wrong or ways in which I can get more information to better diagnose this problem, please post them here. Thank you!I didn't think reinstalling was gonna do me any good except for getting rid of every single thing I have ever installed since getting this MBP. I'm thinking it has to be something that is on my computer causing this, especially since it only affects my ability to get to this one site and I only started seeing this problem yesterday.
So, I went ahead and disabled all my Chrome extensions and I don't have any Safari extensions at all. That didn't fix my issue.
I've been trying to run Sophos on here, thinking that maybe I've got a Trojan or some kind of malware, but it never seems to finish a full scan of my hard drive. That "Plugin" that I mentioned above has me very suspicious, except that whatever that is, it's been on my computer since basically when I first got it. Maybe it's malicious, or maybe it's just a poorly named piece of software. In any case, it got updated last night around 11pm, about the same time I noticed my problem. After trying everything I have, it's hard for me to overlook that as coincidence.
But, where do I go to gain more information about what that could be? I should mention that this MBP is basically my first Apple computer. I've been a PC guy (still am mostly) forever, but I finally dove in and got a Mac to start iOS development. So I'm sure there are ways to get more information than I am currently aware of.
Also, apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum. -
I just bought iphone 5 and my itunes says I need itunes 10.7 But when I look for upgrades it says I have the current version of itunes. HELP!
I am so sorry I am frustrating you. This is the first time I have used this community and am leanring as I go. I am not able to see the entire post that you leave, unless I look at it on my phone (email)--I am so sorry. You have no idea how much i appreciate your help. Yes, I see that I can get the later version of OS software, but its not availabe for immediate download. My only options appear to be having it shipped, or going to the store to purchase. And if you know of another way that I can access all of my itunes library music on my new phone withouth using itunes, I would love to hear about it.--thanks and again i am so sorry for frustrating you.

When I click on anything in the site I get the message " The page you were looking for doesn't exist." This website works for everyone else, but not on my iPad 2 or iPhone 5. I cleared my cache and history on the iPad, but it still isn't working.
I live in Germany and my credit card is in my native country of Holland .. then it
doesn't accept my credit card.
Your first statement explains the second statement. To use the German iTunes Store, you need to prove that you're a resident of Germany (that is required by the content owners who will not allow cross-border sales) and the only way Apple can provide such a verification is by requiring that you enter in either a German credit card or a German-purchased iTunes prepaid card. Since I presume the former is not a possibility, you'll need to do the latter if you wish to purchase content from the iTunes Store. Again, this is not Apple's choice but is forced on them by the content owners as a requirement for Apple being allowed to sell the content. The EU is working on regulations that would force the content owners to allow access pan-EU, but that's still in the works.
You do not need an iTunes Store account to activate and run your iPad, though; at least, I didn't need one for either of my two iPads. If you only want to set up an account so you can get free iPad apps, take a look here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is apparently critical. This seems to come and go, or only apply to App Stores in specific countries, so you may not see the option for "None" when asked for a payment type.
As to the German iTunes Store in English, you can comment to Apple on that via their feedback pages:
http://www.apple.com/feedback
Regards.
P.S. Regarding "this is the only place for a complaint and that will no doubt get removed because
I'm not full of happy joy sparkles.
As stated in the terms of use to which we all agreed, this isn't a complaint forum, it's a technical support forum. You don't have to be full of "happy joy sparkles", but posts that are nothing but complaints may indeed be removed. If you want to complain to Apple, use the feedback pages.

hi guys i have 2 ? 1 my daughters iphone is trying to update on my mac cant get it off help please ,,, 2 i have an old apple id and when i try to up date it keeps looking for the password how do i delete this old apple id help
Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -
How do i find a recent backup from on icloud. i don't want to restore on my iphone, just view on my Pc and keep as file. looking for pics and video i recorded thanks
The password is set on the WiFi router providing the service, by the owner of the network to prevent unwanted "guests" accessing the network. The only way to know it is to ask the owner permission to use the network. Otherwise, you have to find a free WiFi hotspot that doesn't require a password.

Looking for something in the iPad/iPhone Airport App
Hi
I have been waiting for the airport utility for iPad/iPhone to come as I frequently travel with just my iPad and Airport Express. However, I have been unable to configure it when away from home.
So, Apple has released a utility but it appears to be the most important feature for being on the road, that is, the ability to switch connection sharing (so you can hook up to a hotel system).
Is it that I can't find it or it doesn't allow you to do it. In the iPad app, I am looking for the ability to switch between bridge mode and the other two.
Thanks,
AndrewTesserex, thanks for the comment . Can you point to where in the utility I cna figure it to
Share a public IP address
Distribute a range of IP addresses, or
Be off in Bridge mode?
Thanks,I can't work it out.

The AirPort Utility App that is available with iOS 5 does pretty much everything that the Mac or PC versions do including controlling both the NAT & DHCP services to allow you reconfigure an AirPort as a bridge. -
Looking for an app that works with Mac and iPhone that will set calendar reminders of birthdays in contacts.
Hi ron1098,
Try my application Dates to iCal. it runs on the Mac, but you can sync the calendar to your iOS device.
See more about Dates to iCal here. It is £4 shareware with a 2 week demo.

I am looking for an app that can unmute my iphone after a preset time, eg 1 or 2 hours. Does anybody know an app with this feature?? The apps I have found are linked to a calendar or a place, I just need the timer function..
thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue. -
I am looking for a way to sync my calendars between Microsoft Outlook Calendar and My IPhone 4?
I am looking for a convenient way to synchronize my calendars between my email account and Microsoft Outlook to my gmail account and Iphone 4s
you are asking about Microsoft products and using a laptop, not a workstation Mac Pro.
The Numbers and Pages Apple Communities. or MS Community if you want those.
Importing and Exporting, but Numbers and Pages will not do a SAVE into other formats by default, and therefore have to keep using Export which is messy.

Thoughts & suggestions gladly appreciated.Hi Mark Welland;
I am using 1Password. So far it has satisfied all of my needs on my PowerMac, MacBook Pro and iPhone.
Shortly after installing it I had a problem. I called their technical support who were very responsive. They had me download a new version that was that had not been released yet. It solved my problem for me.
I highly recommend it.

Looking for a Dictation App for my Iphone and MacBook Pro.
Want to send all dictation to Word.
I have Dragon. Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?Care to share which OS you are using?
OS has its own dictation program.
Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?
Only you can make that determination. Read the system requirements for both and read the reviews. -
I am a new iPhone user. I'm a frequent technology user but not a sophisticated one. I am looking for an app where I can make lists -- books, movie titles, etc. And I want to be able to make individual folders. But I do not need much more capacity than that. Ideas?
One of these may fit your needs: http://iphone.appstorm.net/roundups/productivity-roundups/25-fantastic-to-do-lis t-apps-for-iphone/
What do you mean make folders? Like folders inside an application or accessing system folders? You can't do the latter.
