I’m writing a new iPhone app which doesn’t depend on any of the 3.0 APIs. 2.2.1 should work fine and has a substantially larger user base currently and in the near future as last I checked Apple was expecting iPod Touch owners to cough up $10 to upgrade to 3.0. That leaves a nontrivial number of cheap users who will stay with 2.2.1 as ...
I have several UILabels of various sizes on my Views. I want all the UILabels to have the same font size no matter how wide or tall my UILabels are. I have tried several settings in IB but nothing seems to get me that fixed font size. I am sure I am missing something simple. Can someone please clue me in? ...
I'm a longtime Codewright user on the PC for doing software and I recently moved over to iPhone development and have been learning to use Xcode. Is there a way to see a function list for the current open file so I can quickly move around in my source files like I could back in Codewright? Or do I have to just create book marks? Keith ...
I am new to OpenGL ES, and I'm about to begin a 3D game for the iphone in which we are showing some car pursuit or racing. Is it possible just with the OpenGL ES or UIKit only, or do I have to use other tools for it? I am comfortable with UIKit but newer to OpenGL/OpenGL ES; which would be better to start this game? Or should I use a ga...
I'm trying to build a application that allows the user to either A) enter a new person, or B) select a person from their contacts... My question is on item B.

I've been working on iPhone app for awhile and still want to support 2.2.1 One of the features is that the user can start the app via email by clicking a link. In the 2.2.1 world, I accomplished this by implemting the application: handleOpenURL: message. In iPhone 3.0, they've changed things up adding the application: didFinishLaunchi...

I'm was running an iPhone application I'm working on through the Object Allocations performance tool, and I've noticed that "GeneralBlock-0 has a large (constantly growing) number of net allocations. Even so, the net and overall bytes for this group is consistently zero. Is this normal or does it indicate some a leak or memory manageme...
My app needs to associate instances of a custom class with contact records in the iPhone's AddressBook. Everything's all well and good when I present the ABPeoplePickerNavigationController and allow the user to pick an existing contact. Problem is there's no obvious way to allow a user to easily ADD a contact record if the one they're lo...

There is a newly introduced issue with iPhone 3.0 SDK and how it deals with the NSURL method for automatically making phone calls. It used to be that you could call a method (NSURL), pass in a string with a URL prefix (tel://, sms, etc...) and the iPhone OS would dispatch the message to the device, such as iTunes, App Store, Phone, SMS,...

I want to both play sound and record sound at the same time on the iPhone. All the apps which record sound first disable any music playing. However as music would disrupt their purpose I don't know if they're doing this deliberately or whether the iPhone does it automatically when you record from the microphone. Does anyone have experi...
Is there an easy way to trigger a [UITableView reloadData] from within a UITableViewCell? I am loading remote images to be displayed after the initial table display, and updating the image with self.image = newImage does not refresh the table. Resetting the cell's text value does refresh the table, but this seems sloppy. MyTableViewCe...

I'm using UIImagePickerController to take a photo in portrait mode on the iphone and save to the web. The photo appears in portrait on the phone, but rotates 90 degrees on the web. If I download the photo and look at it in Preview (mac) or Photoshop (mac or pc) it is in portrait again. In Windows Picture Viewer (pc) it's rotated to lan...
I'm confused about NSUserDefaults on the iPhone. I come from a C / asm background and the Objective-C stuff has been a learning experience. I'm currently using NSUserDefaults to store some strings (for the names in a highscore table). I want to start implementing a "Save Game" type feature so if the user gets a call or exits out of th...
It looks like I cant create an album for my picture producing app in the photo library... so what I was going to do is save the images to the documents folder for my app, which I think should be easy enough. The issue though is that the image picker seems to only allow you to pick saved images or photo library as the source, and I would...
