I was browsing through some applications for the iPhone with a store locator in them allowing users to find stores based on a zip code or current location.
I was wondering if there is any way to find an XML/JSON file which lists all the address for a particular store (Walmart, Target, etc...) which I could extract using the NSXML parser and then corelate the address to the MapView. Do I have to make use of Google Maps API?

You could take a look at the Foursquare Search API: https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/search
Otherwise it might be worth making a manually defined list of stores that the user can chose from and manually adding an XML/JSON store list to your bundle.

Actually There Are so many API Available Today Like FourSquare Google Places Search API etc.
I think You should Use Google Places Search API for That.It Gives More detailed Data Comparatively To Others.They Have Great documentation for The Same.
Here you should go For The Google Places Search API.
Go For The FourSquare API.

In my iPhone application i have one option for import twitter followers in my friend list.(friend list which is display in my application)as per my knowledge i need to follow bellow step.
1. Twitter OAuth integration in my application and get access_token.
2.find API for get followers list from twitter developer site.
If anyone have good approach than kindly guide me.
Thanks in advance.
You can use (on iOS 5 and above) the Accounts + Twitter frameworks to make your access to Twitter a lot easier. This way, you don't need to manually deal with the OAuth protocol. You can also take advantage of the fact that a user may have their Twitter account already set up at the OS level, meaning you don't need them to log in again. See links below on how to use these.
Your second question regarding followers list, you can get a list of followers using the following API Resource: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/followers/list
Using that API along with the Twitter framework should get the results you are after/

Can I use Google Maps API to create a Facebook Application? [closed]

Could I use Google Maps API to create a Facebook Application? If so, what is the most efficient method to go about doing this? If not Google Maps, how about Bing Maps API or Openstreetmaps?
On a technical level you should be able to use the javascript API. You can read up on it at http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial.html
However, check the API licensing carefully. If you intend to charge for your app, or depending on what you plan to track, you may have to purchase the business license which is $10k (no exceptions, whether profitable or not)
I did this long time back. I created an application which was embedded inside facebook and it used google maps API.
And I guess these things will always work because facebook and google provide service through set of APIs. And they are independent of each other

I've been having some difficulty designing a search and login function for my app. I have a list of video's with titles, and I need to create a search function (much like the youtube app) to search through the list. What would be the best way to go about doing this? Search the video's before they get fetched, and display the results, or search through the array after it's been fetched.
I also need to connect with an apache server to login in my app, and display unique content.
I haven't been able to find any samples on the matter.
Thanks for reading!
Your question is too vague. There are many paths that you can take. Your videos can be searchable on your remote apache server, or your iOS app can download the list of videos and search locally. This depends on the number of videos.
Best way is to have a table view with a list, and a search field on top. To get to this table view, the iOS app asks the user to login. If it's valid, then it shows the table/search views.

i want to create a system that allow my site users talk talk to each other. simple like google talk.
i tried google talk but they just allow people to talk to their google firends and not to their friends on my website.
so what am i supposed to do. where should i start and what language do i need to use?
or in another way, how can i stream audio directly from the users microphone to the other user and at the same time stream the other users voice to the one in this side?
i looked in google and i couldnt found anything that can help me.
This plugin for ejabberd could be what you're looking for: a multi-user web interface to a Jabber chatroom.
Note that you'd need to set up your own Jabber server for this, but it's not extremely hard. (it's indeed "simple like google talk", except that Google Talk isn't too simple; note also that Google Talk is actually built on Jabber)

i want to search for different hospitals near to my location and then show them on map. But the problem is i don't know how to search for hospitals near to my location. Any help about searching the location for hospital is appreciated.
You can query GeoNames' webservices: this example searches for hospitals near London.
Beware that GeoNames' results are not foolproof, and they don't offer any guarantee on data accuracy. Do not use it for emergency situations.
Try the Google Places API
you can use mapkit
MapKit Tutorial
You can also use the Google maps API to do a similar thing. Have a look at the documentation here;-
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/places/#PlaceSearches
You'll need to get an API key as well as accept the terms and conditions but as you are using MapKit, you are effectively doing this anyway. This is mentioned in Apple's documentation.
One other alternative would be to use Foursquare data as they too have an API and the data quality should be reasonably good. However, that will be another API, terms etc. to deal with and it might be more fiddly to filter your search to just hospitals.
Once you have some results and parse them, MapKit has a very straightforward API for adding the annotations to the map.
