In the settings -> general, there is a switch to turn on/off the location services. In the Maps app, when location services is off, if the user click on the find me button, it pops up an alert and asks the user to turn on location services in the settings. It then exits the app and launch the settings app. How can I do that programmatica...
In the app I'm currently writing I'd like to populate the message body of an e-mail with a combination of text and images. It took me forever to find out that in order to get an embedded image, you had to have bold tags in the message body (...uhhh, yeah), otherwise the image just shows up as an attachment. But now I have the problem t...

I have a UITextField inside a UITableViewCell. It will not activate on the iPad (but it works fine on the iPhone) no matter what I try. Tapping on it and telling it to become the firstResponder both fail. The odd thing is that if I take the exact same code and move it to another view controller in my app it executes just fine. This ma...
I am building an iPhone app that plays videos on demand from a web service. The videos play in an MPMoviePlayerController, and everything works fine on the iPhone device. However, when one loads up the iPhone application on an iPad, the videos play Portrait mode (with letterboxing on the top and bottom), instead of Landscape Left like ...
Hello - in my app, an NSMutableArray is populated with an object in viewDidLoad (eventually there will be many objects but I'm just doing one til I get it working right). I also start a timer that starts a method that needs to access the NSMutableArray every few seconds. The NSMutableArray works fine in viewDidLoad, but as soon as that m...
I am running into an issue where the keyboard does not get dismissed when leaving a UITextField or UITextView in a UIModalPresentationFormSheet. In addition, I've created a large button to serve as the view's background so if the user taps outside the fields it gets triggered. I am using the same code in a regular view controller, and it...

Hi all, I developed a test app and I tried to use into the simulator.. all works fine! After, following the document "iPhone_developer_program_user_guide" I made the distribution version of my app (and xcode built it without problems). After this, I couldn't try the distribution 'cause I don't have iPad, but when I selected the debug typ...

I have the need for some time based effects in the iPad app I am building. The UIView class animation capability beginAnimations/commitAnimations is exactly the sort of thing I am looking for but it is restricted to specific properties of UIView deemed animatable. Ideally, I am looking for a solution that lets me drive a time-based func...
The "Photos.app" in iPad has a gallery that you can browse all photos, including support for slideshow and other things. I'd like to know if this API is available (aka, not private) and which one it is (so I won't need to implement one photo gallery from scratch). I looked at http://github.com/facebook/three20, but I'm not sure if it is ...
it may sound a weird question not easy also to explain: Jquery works flawless on any desktop web browser but as you may have already noticed is pretty cluncky on iphone/ipad/ipod because is not hardware accelerated as the webkit transforms are...the latter are very smooth...but they work only on apple products. my question is if do you...
Short version: I'm alloc/init/retaining a new UIViewController in one UIViewControllers viewDidLoad method, adding the new View to self.view. This usually works, but it seems to mess up orientation change handling of my iPad app. Longer version: I'm building a fairly complex iPad application, involving a lot of views and viewcontrollers...

I have a command that should be loading a subview before a particular piece of time intensive code executes. However the command runs, the timely code executes and then the subview shows up.
