MD101 for ios development

I want to buy Macbook Pro for ios apps developing . My budget around 1200 $ , I have two option :
to buy 1- MacBook Pro MD101 have the following specification i5 duel-core 2.5Ghz / 4g RAM / 500 HDD  
or
to buy 2- MacBook Pro Retina i5 duel-core 2.6 Ghz / 8g RAM / 256g SSD  ( if i buy this mac can i able to upgrade to 512g SSD )

Retina MBPs that are early 2013 models and earlier can have SSD upgrades.  Newer ones do not have that option at this time.
The MB101 is far more flexible since it can have up 16 GB RAM installed and any SATA HDD or SSD installed as well.  Not as fancy as a retina but it is a more practical option.
Ciao.

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

    Apple just denied my enrollment for ios developer program. Apple denied my application because they could not verify my identity but still went ahead with charging my card. Apple did not even explain why they could not verify my identity so i could fix it

    Is the credit card in your name?

  • What Tech Specs are needed for iOS developement and other game developement?

    I am looking to buy a new macbook pro most likely the retina because it has a much higher resolution and flash storage which will make it much faster than a regular macbook pro. I am going to use this computer for programming including iOS developement and web design. I will also be using higher end applications like cinema 4d, unity 3d, and the adobe products.
    I am in school so i will also be using this for simple school functions.
    I was wondering should i get the 16gb model or is 8 enough?
    And should i get more internal storage than 256 gb and just use the Apple Time Capsule for a wireless external hard drive or get more storage on the macbook?

    Since the RAM on the Retina model can't be upgraded by the user, I would go with the full 16GB.
    I would also look at the 512GB flash storage option - you don't want to lug around an external drive.
    Just my 2¢...

  • Is there any certification exam available for ios developement ?

    Hi
       Is there any certification exam available for ios application developement ?Like micosoft,.net,Oracle java
    If anyone have knowledge , please let me know .I want to get some apple certification on ios application developement.
    Thanks

    None that I know of.
    It's more impressive and useful if you write an app and get it published in the App Store.
    That way you can show you aren't just a 'paper MCSD'.

  • I am not included for tax exempt for iOS developer program

    Hi,
    I am not included for tax exempt . but checked the tax exempt check box unknowingly during ios developer enrollment process of 99$.and completed the purchase .
    Now can I apply for excluding tax exepmt by unchecking .As I cant provide the SSN for app sale..Can some one help me on this.
    Thank you

    This is being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On all but one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On all of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".

  • I5 MBP with retina or i7 MBP for iOS development

    I'm a beginner iOS developer. I need to upgrade my Mac (mid 2009 model) as it becomes so slow since upgrading to lion and even slower with mountain lion
    I'm going to use the new Mac for Xcode and photoshop.
    My question here. Shall I buy an i5 MBP with retina display or an i7 MBP (non retina) as both are same price.
    The think the only difference (other than the display and is the slim body) is the HDMI port in the retina model and DVD drive in the non-retina model
    I live outside the US and my friend is going to buy it for in two weeks and I won't be able to return it if I didn't like it so please choose carefully
    Thank you in advance

    Doing some additonal web research I found the following site.  Using that data, I was able to pull the Geekbench performance results my current MBP (late 2011) and the two MBP's being considered.  Below is a cut & paste of the information I compiled in a spreadsheet.
    http://browser.primatelabs.com/mac-benchmarks
    Next question -- does the benchmarks take into account the speed difference of the HDD vs SDD drives?  As you can see, there is very minimal performance difference to go non-retina to a retina model.  On average a 6.64% performance increase for a 28.60% price increase.
    Those percentages might change if the benchmark tests don't include hard drive speeds.  But as it stands, if we attribute 6.64% of the costs difference to performance since that is how much increase you get going rMBP vs MBP, then there is an approximate 22% premium (or $220) for the retina display and more compact design (along with all the various changes that go w/ retina -- no user upgradeability, addition of HDMI port, lack of optical drive, firewire and ethernet, etc).  If you plan on buying an external super-drive ($79) the premium crawls to near 30% more.

  • What email to use for iOS developer program for company

    Hi, I'm planning to register to iOS developer program as a company. My question is, should I use my company email to create the Apple ID? If sometime in the future I leave the company, can the Apple ID email be changed ?

    I would recommend you to use Blowfish, but if you think you dont need a very strong algorithm and prefer to focus on performance(speed),then a 56-bit DES would be adequate.
    You need the javax.crypto.* and javax.crypto.spec.* packages.
    If you will store the information in a file, after you encrypt the data, base64 encode it.
    (there are base64 encode/decode classes in sun.misc package)
    I show u a method implementing that:
    public String encryptTxt(String txt,String key){
       try{
          SecretKeySpec specKey=new SecretKeySpec(key, "Blowfish");
          Cipher cipher=Cipher.getInstance("Blowfish"););
          cipher.init( Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, specKey);
          return new String(  new BASE64Encoder().encodeBuffer( cipher.doFinal(txt.getBytes())) );
       }catch(Exception e){return txt;}
      }HTH

  • Air for ios - developing on new mac / certificates help

    so my hard drive died on my macbook pro and I upgraded to a new hybrid ssd drive and need to get back up and running with Flash Builder 4.6 to recreate a project I was developing for a client (lesson learned about backup!)...
    I never backed up my ios key / certificate and need to know if Im completely screwed in terms of being able to resume ongoing development of existing apps (i.e. releasing NEW versions of current / existing apps)
    what do I need to do to make sure my apps can be signed same as the previously launched versions / builds?

    You were spot on.  I just had to get all the keychain access info back inplace and its always a little tricky getting the private keys for the certificates for Dev and Dist but it all worked out.  Guess my panic mode was a bit out of hand from the hard drive failure -- new SSD and back up and running though.  thanks for the reply / help.

  • Need tips for iOS development

    i just bought an ipod touch 4g and i want to start developing apps, im reading that i should update my air version, i would like to work in pure as3, no flex, what would be my best choice and what version of air should i use, also is there any documentation site for APIs and iOS stuff for as3?, thanks a lot

    Here's an article on how to overlay AIR 3.0 on CS5.5:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90810.html
    It does have the same requirements as AIR 2.6, so no real drawback to doing the overlay.

  • Real name vs. Display name when registering for iOS Development program

    Hi all,
    I know that you need to register under your real name when signing up for the iOS dev program as an individual, and I'm fine with that. (I'm a sole developer, won't be setting up a company or LLC, so I'm going in as an Individual)
    My issue is, do we have any control of what users will see as my developer name when they go to my app's page on the App Store, or MUST we use the FULL real name?
    To clarify, I'm ok with using my real name, but my full name is really long (W. W. M. E. P. Gunetileke in initials), so would it be possible to use an abbrieviated version?
    e.g. Show M. Gunetileke or E. Perera as the developer name instead of showing the name in its entirety.
    IF its fine to put a display name like this, the next question is, what would be the legal ramifications when it comes to getting payments from Apple. I understand that money would be wired to whatever bank account I set up? Would there be an issue with this when not using your name in its entirety?
    Cheers!

    Thanks for your reply Michael.
    As I said, using my real name is fine with me, but I was wondering whether we need to use the entire name as it is, or whether we may be able tu display a subset of it as the display name. Mine is ridiculously long, and it would be a joke to use the full name there
    For e.g. in your case, would it be possible for you to have "M. Superczynski" as the displayed developer name instead of your full name?
