I am unable to save a file to a different folder(outside app) since i have to retrieve the data from it after the application uninstalled.I have to get the data from that file after installing application.The file is getting deleted with the application.please help me solve this issue..
Not possible. iOS apps are sandboxed. You cannot write anything outside your app sandbox.
For security reasons, iOS places each app (including its preferences and data) in a sandbox at install time. A sandbox is a set of fine-grained controls that limit the app’s access to files, preferences, network resources, hardware, and so on. As part of the sandboxing process, the system installs each app in its own sandbox directory, which acts as the home for the app and its data.

I have some video and audio file in my google drive and now i have integrate goolge drive sdk in my application.
I want to get that video and audio file form google drive and show it in ios application
How can i do this
I am surprised you asked this question here instead of looking at Google Drive iOS SDK documentation.
According to this use this API to list all files in a users Google Drive -
GET https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v2/files
There are plenty of other API's to list the files metadata without actually downloading the file etc. Hoep this points you in the right direction. Their documentation is extensive, check it out...

I want to create an app to the iPad Mini that connects to iPhone using Bluetooth 4.0, and access its messages, to show on screen when I receive a E-mail, SMS or iMessage.
I think that I could use the Message Access Profile (MAP) but I didn't find a way to do that.
Can someone tell me from where I begin?
My first try was get the SMS notification using CoreTelephony, but since the iOS 5 (as I know) the message didn't came with the notification, and as my iPhone isn't jailbroken, I couldn't access the SMS.db to read it, neither using the private framework ChatKit.
I won't publish this app on appstore, it is for personal using and testing.

I wish to develop an app which based on a barcode downloads another set of code/app and executes the required action. The base app doesn't have the flow of the action coded but just the identification parameter and inputs on which app to download.
Is this possible?
It depends on whether you want app store approval and what the 'code' is. The review guidelines say, "2.7 Apps that download code in any way or form will be rejected."
On the other hand, a web page often has Javascript code associated with it and a web view can execute that.
It depends on some more details and whether you're intending to use the store.

I hope to encrypt the ipa file of a freeware for jailbreak users so that others cannot view the project details.
Is there any tool to do this?
Welcome any comment
From my knowledge, you CANNOT do anything like that ! And apple probably won't allow your app to go on the AppStore in the first place.
The way the ipa file is generated (as of now), jailbreaking does not allow the hacker to view the classes or the underlying code/algorithm used ( I think he can view the images used via iExplorer or may a simple ssh would suffice). Encrypting that further is not really a great solution considering you want the app to be uploaded on the AppStore.
All developers strictly abide by Apple's rules, and its their domain. The only thing developers will have to worried about is Paid apps being available for free on the web.. With respect to that, may be we can expect a solution from Apple to prevent Piracy later this year (Hopefully)

I'm a beginner of iOS app development,
I'm working on a very small project to show useful info of another app
i simply want it to check the out/ingoing packets through my device and find a specific packet where its string contains a specific word, if found then show the whole packet content,
is it possible to be done and does apple allow tracking packets ? thanks in advance
Regardless of it being possible or not (I'm guessing the answer is no, since you probably need root access and more low level APIs that aren't available by default), you want to track other applications. More specifically the network activity of these applications. This imposes several 'difficulties';
Given their policies, Apple will not allow this.
Your application will need to be active on the foreground, while background activity of applications is limited. The number of packets you will be able to 'sniff' will be very minimal and if you chose to put your application in the background instead your time will be limited to about 10 minutes of execution time.
My advice? Don't. Unless you are interested in the jailbreak 'market'.
