What do you think it's the best way to communicate iphone with the mac? Can I use GameKit for that? HTTP? ...
OK, I'm feeling really REALLY stupid for asking this question, but I've managed to stump myself so hard that I doubt I have the proper detachment to figure out the answer for myself any more.

I would like to create a custom NSView that takes a layered approach to painting. I imagine the majority of the layers would be the same width and height as the backing view. Is it appropriate to use the Core Animation classes like CALayer for this task, even though I don't expect to need much animation? Is there a more appropriate appr...

Hi Everyone: I am creating a fullscreen app and am wondering if there is some way to make NSAlert go above the CGDisplayCapture that I created.
