If the user specifies a time of 2:30pm and it's currently 3:00pm, then I need an NSDate object that represents tomorrow with a time of...

I know that might sound like a stupid question since it's a trivial feature in most modern IDEs, but I'm diving into iOS development and am getting familiar with the platform and SDK and I can't figure this out. I have a ton of experience with MS Visual Studio and I see that Xcode works very much the same, tho it's still lacking quite a...
I have an embedded youtube video in a page. I also have a menu (when opened) is on top of that video. I have set the z-index value of the menu to higher than that of the video. I have also set the wmode of the video to transparent to allow for content on top of it. I am experiencing no issues at all in safari, ie, chrome, or firefox on...
Hi. I have a UITableView with cells that contain a UISwitch control. It's similar to the table view in the iPhone's Clock app shown below... In my app's cellForRowAtIndexPath method, I create and attach the UISwitch control like so... CGRect frameSwitch = CGRectMake(215.0, 10.0, 94.0, 27.0); UISwitch *switchEnabled = [[UISwitch a...
I could not really find this in the documentation ... I'm writing some unit tests and one of the tests that is supposed to fail is [NSURL URLWithString: @"cow"]. Because cow is not a valid URL. However, it is happily parsed by NSURL with no errors at all. It does not return nil and it does not throw an exception. Calling [url absoluteS...
You know how installing iOS SDK 4 meant that you lost the ability to set the Base SDK to 3.1.x and lower (You have to use the deployment target etc). Does the same happen when installing 4.0.2 over the top of 4.0? Will I have to set my Base SDK to 4.0.2 and use the Deployment Target for a lower version (4.x or lower)? Or can I still set...
I'm implementing some charts with some user interactions, like long-pressing to view the full data under the finger, two fingers to draw a line, and other stuff. For a start, how would I implement the kind of interaction the iphone stocks app does in the landscape mode of the price chart? Manipulate a CALayer for the yellow vertical li...
Is it possible to use gesture recognizers with layers? Let's say I want to add several sublayers to my view and implement drag&drop as well as tapping on single element. Is it possible at all ? What is the best pattern? ...
Hello. I have a ViewController that manages a view full of controls, including UITextViews, UIButtons, and a drawing view. It's far more than I can fit on the screen, but I'd like my design to have it all in one place and make the root view scrollable. I've become very spoiled with Interface Builder automating much of the coding work ...
Hi all, this is my first post and i have looked all over for a week or so now so i'm not sure if there is an answer out there or not. I have an iPhone application (my first one) that has a view that includes a UIWebView. The view responds to the shake gesture and then loads a modal view controller that includes navigation buttons for...
Hello. I'm trying to create a view that's full of controls (buttons, text views, labels, etc.) that can scroll, since I don't have enough screen space for all the controls. I understand that I need the root view in my application to be a UIScrollView and I need to attach to that a UIView with all my controls in it. The problem is, aft...
I am just starting out with iOS programming. I'm currently looking through the MoveMe example and had a question about event handlers. In the example, they have the MoveMeView (subclass of UIView) handle events (touchesBegan:withEvent:, etc.). It seems like this belongs on a controller though, not the view. Is there a standard way of doi...
Hi - I'm making my first iOS application to be run specifically on an iPad as part of my final year project at University. I've been experimenting with the different types of applications and I'm stuck wondering what would be the best type for my application - the application is to quote for a service offered by a local business, they ...
I'm getting the following error when trying to submit my app to the app store. I went through the initial provisioning process and am able to run the app on my phone so not sure what's wrong. Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, or it was not signed with an Apple submission certificate. EDIT: I tried do...

In iOS is there anyway to prevent a UIView containing multiple buttons (siblings) from being simultaneously from being touched? For instance, two non-overlapping buttons that are side by side can be tapped at the same time with two touches. ...
Hello. I started building a Universal app and it turned out the design doesn't work well with the iPad, so I've decided to make it a stand-alone iPhone app instead. By that, I mean I'd like the app store to see my app as an iPhone app, not a Universal app. I was just about to create a new project and move my existing iPhone code over ...

I want to apply post-processing to audio from an iPhone user's music library (i.e. the iPod app). This could happen in a number of ways: Piping the media player's output through an Audio Unit. Writing a custom audio output device, and having the media player send audio to it. Getting direct access to the files in the user's music libra...
