In my new iOS Project I'd like the end user to be able to MMS text and/or images(from TextField) in a UIButton Action . I've seen similar apps that has this functionality (with text, haven't seen one with images yet).
I have search in google but could not find how to do this, any help much appreciated
This will work fine
MFMessageComposeViewController *picker = [[MFMessageComposeViewController alloc] init];
UIPasteboard *pasteboard = [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];
pasteboard.persistent = YES;
pasteboard.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"PDF_File.png"];
NSString *phoneToCall = #"sms:";
NSString *phoneToCallEncoded = [phoneToCall stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:phoneToCallEncoded];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
if([MFMessageComposeViewController canSendText]) {
NSMutableString *emailBody = [[NSMutableString alloc] initWithString:#"Your Email Body"];
picker.messageComposeDelegate = self;
picker.recipients = [NSArray arrayWithObject:#"123456789"];
[picker setBody:emailBody];// your recipient number or self for testing
picker.body = emailBody;
NSLog(#"Picker -- %#",picker.body);
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
NSLog(#"SMS fired");
}

How to attach an image to native message composer in ios6? I want to implement the same sharing via message function we can see in default photos app.
Thanks
For Mail:
MFMailComposeViewController *mailController = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
NSData *exportData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(pic ,1.0);
[mailController addAttachmentData:exportData mimeType:#"image/jpeg" fileName:#"Photo.jpeg"];
[self presentModalViewController:mailController animated:YES];
The only way is through email currently. Unless you want to create a own MMS gateway to allow your app to support MMS..
For Message:
After reading up, instead of using MFMessageComposeViewController,you could UIApplication sharedApplication.
Example:
UIPasteboard *pasteboard = [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];
pasteboard.persistent = YES;
NSData *data = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(pic ,1.0);
pasteboard.image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];
NSString *phoneToCall = #"sms: 123-456-7890";
NSString *phoneToCallEncoded = [phoneToCall stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:phoneToCallEncoded];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
Longpress and click on Paste and message will be pasted...
Hope this helps... pic refers to the UIImage you are passing...
{
NSMutableDictionary * attachment = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc]init];
[attachment setObject: UIImageJPEGRepresentation(imageView.image,0.5) forKey:#"attachmentData"];
[attachment setObject: #"productImage.jpeg" forKey:#"attachmentFileName"];
[attachment setObject: #"jpeg" forKey:#"attachmentFileMimeType"];
NSMutableDictionary* params = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[params setObject: #"subject" forKey:#"subject"];

I think you cant attach an image in the message composer. It is only possible in mail composer.
I am working on an app where, if the user selects a sound, they can email it to themselves from the app.
The attachment part 'appears' to work, however, when I send the email, the recipient has no attachment?
On the iPad/iPhone itself, it looks like it is attaching it when it comes to compose, but it is not working? :/
Here is the code I am using;
- (void)onSend:(id)sender{
int nIndex;
UIButton *btnSender = (UIButton *)sender;
NSLog( #"%d", btnSender.tag );
for ( int i = 0; i < [ m_aryFileName count ]; i++ ) {
if( i == ( btnSender.tag - 100 ) ){
nIndex = i;
}
}
NSString *strFileName = [ m_aryFileName objectAtIndex:nIndex ];
strFileName = [ strFileName stringByAppendingString:#".mp3" ];
NSData* nData = [ NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:strFileName ];
MFMailComposeViewController *pickerMail = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
pickerMail.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[pickerMail setSubject:#"myMail Attachment"];
// Attach an image to the email
[pickerMail addAttachmentData:nData mimeType:#"audio/mp3" fileName:strFileName ];
// Fill out the email body text
NSString *emailBody = #"Here is your attachment";
[pickerMail setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:YES];
[self presentModalViewController:pickerMail animated:YES];
[pickerMail release];
}
try this code mate,
NSString *strFileName = [m_aryFileName objectAtIndex:nIndex];
strFileName = [strFileName stringByAppendingString:#".mp3"];
NSURL *fileURL = [[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath:strFileName];
NSData *nData = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:fileURL];
MFMailComposeViewController *pickerMail = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
pickerMail.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[pickerMail setSubject:#"myMail Attachment"];
[pickerMail addAttachmentData:nData mimeType:#"audio/mpeg" fileName:strFileName ];
NSString *emailBody = #"Here is your attachment";
[pickerMail setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:YES];
[self presentModalViewController:pickerMail animated:YES];
Below code might be useful to you:
NSData *videoData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:mediaUrl];
[mailcomposer addAttachmentData:videoData mimeType:#"video/mp4" fileName:#"Video"]
Try using a mime type of audio/mpeg instead. You can get this value by running the following code:
#import <MobileCoreServices/MobileCoreServices.h>
CFStringRef uti = UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag(kUTTagClassFilenameExtension,
(__bridge CFStringRef)#"mp3",
NULL);
CFStringRef mimeTags = UTTypeCopyPreferredTagWithClass(uti, kUTTagClassMIMEType);
CFRelease(uti);
NSString *mediaType = [NSString stringWithString:(__bridge NSString *)mimeTags];
CFRelease(mimeTags);
How does that work?
if ([MFMailComposeViewController canSendMail] && m_pDataArray != nil)
{
NSString * pSongPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"song" ofType"#"mp3"]; ;//get the file
MFMailComposeViewController * pMailComposer = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
pMailComposer.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[pMailComposer setMessageBody:#"msg body" isHTML:NO];
NSURL * pFileUrl = [[[NSURL alloc] initFileURLWithPath:pSongPath] autorelease];
NSData * pData = [[[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:pFileUrl] autorelease];
[pMailComposer addAttachmentData:pData mimeType:#"audio/mpeg" fileName:#"song.mp3" ]];
[self presentModalViewController:pMailComposer animated:YES];
[pMailComposer release];
}
else
{
UIAlertView *pAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Failure" message:#"Your device doesn't support the composer sheet" delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[pAlert show];
[pAlert release];
pAlert = nil;
}
be sure that the file should have valid extension like .mp3 , in that case it will work properly
In my app, I have a set of location and their relative annotation. I have a button where cliking it, i go to a method that call a URL web service to get the google street view.
My code is:
- (NSString*)urlStreetview:(id<MKAnnotation>)annotation{
CLLocation *pinLocation = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:annotation.coordinate.latitude longitude:annotation.coordinate.longitude];
NSLog(#"lat:%f",pinLocation.coordinate.latitude);
NSLog(#"lon:%f",pinLocation.coordinate.longitude);
NSString *lat_string = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", pinLocation.coordinate.latitude];
NSString *lon_string = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", pinLocation.coordinate.longitude];
NSString *url1 = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http:myweb/streetview.php"];
NSString *url2 = [url1 stringByAppendingString: #"?lat="];
NSString *url3 = [url2 stringByAppendingString:lat_string];
NSString *url4 = [url3 stringByAppendingString:#"&lon="];
NSString *url = [url4 stringByAppendingString:lon_string];
NSLog(#"url:%#",url);
return url;
}
I wrote the previous method to have a url that is composed with the LatLong of the annotation.
I have a button called PressMe on the annotation pin. When I push it, I want to to excute the previous method, to calle the url, but I do not understand how pass the selected annotation to the streetView method.
- (IBAction)PressMe:(id)sender
{
UIViewController *webViewController = [[[UIViewController alloc] init] autorelease];
UIWebView *uiWebView = [[[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0,0,320,480)] autorelease];
[uiWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString: [self urlStreetview: ????]]]]; //HERE IS MY MY PROBLEM
[webViewController.view addSubview: uiWebView];
webViewController.title = #"web bar";
[self.navigationController pushViewController:webViewController animated:YES];
//[[self navigationController] pushViewController:thirdViewController animated:YES];
}
thanks in advance!
I am going to answer my question myself. I just resolve my problem an it work perfectly. The code allows to show a web view in order to have a steet View google service of the annotation map Kit annotation. Obviusly, as I am relatively new iphone developer,if someone wants to add/suggest/improve, he is welcome.
My button implementation:
- (IBAction)PressMe:(id)sender
{
UIViewController *webViewController = [[[UIViewController alloc] init] autorelease];
UIWebView *uiWebView = [[[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(0,0,320,480)] autorelease];
[uiWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString: self.urlStreetview]]];
[webViewController.view addSubview: uiWebView];
webViewController.title = #"web bar";
[self.navigationController pushViewController:webViewController animated:YES];
//[[self navigationController] pushViewController:thirdViewController animated:YES];
}
With this button I call my (following) method "urlStreetview" the, with the annotation selected, composes a string in order to have a complet url with the apropriete GET php parameter. The url is the direction of my (very simple) web service that allow to call the google API street View.
- (NSString*)urlStreetview{
//there can only be one selected annotation so get the one at index 0
id<MKAnnotation> selectedAnnotation = [_mapView.selectedAnnotations objectAtIndex:0];
CLLocation *pinLocation = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:selectedAnnotation.coordinate.latitude longitude:selectedAnnotation.coordinate.longitude];
//Now I have the annotation coordinate selected, so now I am able to compound the urladdingo to my base url:http://myurl/streetview.php, the GET part, I mean the lat lon coords:
NSString *lat_string = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", pinLocation.coordinate.latitude];
NSString *lon_string = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", pinLocation.coordinate.longitude];
NSString *url1 = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://myurl/streetview.php"];
NSString *url2 = [url1 stringByAppendingString: #"?lat="];
NSString *url3 = [url2 stringByAppendingString:lat_string];
NSString *url4 = [url3 stringByAppendingString:#"&lon="];
NSString *url = [url4 stringByAppendingString:lon_string];
NSLog(#"url:%#",url);
return url;
}
I hope It can be useful!
I want saved email addresses of different users, and I want to open mailBox's new mail when I click the email, same as phonebook email in iphone,
what should I to do ???
You should use the MFMailComposeViewController class, and the implement MFMailComposeViewControllerDelegate protocol,
First to send a message:
MFMailComposeViewController* controller = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
controller.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[controller setSubject:#"My Subject"];
[controller setMessageBody:#"Hello there." isHTML:NO];
[self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
[controller release];
Once you sent you will get delegate callback in mailComposeController :
- (void)mailComposeController:(MFMailComposeViewController*)controller
didFinishWithResult:(MFMailComposeResult)result
error:(NSError*)error;
{
if (result == MFMailComposeResultSent) {
NSLog(#"It's gone!");
}
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
Create new message within Mail:
NSString *subject = #"The subject";
NSString *body = #"The message";
NSString *address = #"mail#address.com";
NSString *cc = #"mail#address.com";
NSString *path = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"mailto:%#?cc=%#&subject=%#&body=%#", address, cc, subject, body];
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:[path stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
I am using this code for mail
MFMailComposeViewController *picker = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
picker.mailComposeDelegate = self;
NSString *msgTitle = #"Sample Title";
[picker setSubject:msgTitle];
NSArray *toRecipients =[[NSArray alloc] init];
NSArray *ccRecipients =[[NSArray alloc] init];
NSArray *bccRecipients =[[NSArray alloc] init];
[picker setToRecipients:toRecipients];
[picker setCcRecipients:ccRecipients];
[picker setBccRecipients:bccRecipients];
NSString *sum = #"The Email Body string is here";
NSString *emailBody;
emailBody = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",sum];
[picker setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:YES];
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
[picker release];
it works,
i want to know,is it required to modify
-(void)launchMailAppOnDevice
{
NSString *recipients = #"mailto:first#example.com?cc=second#example.com,third#example.com&subject=Hello from California!";
NSString *body = #"&body=It is raining in sunny California!";
NSString *email = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#%#", recipients, body];
email = [email stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:email]];
}
if yes then
how i modify in this method.
Please help me.
If email address is given statically and displayed in To address.
You can use this code,
MFMailComposeViewController *mail = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
mail.mailComposeDelegate = self;
if ([MFMailComposeViewController canSendMail]) {
[mail setToRecipients:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"AAA#BBB.com",nil]];
[self presentModalViewController:mail animated:YES];
}
[mail release];
And
see my answer
Best of luck.
