I'm trying to integrate Facebook sharing procedure into my app. I'm using UIActivityViewController like this:
NSArray * activityItems = #[self.imgView.image, self.txtField.text];
UIActivityViewController * activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:activityVC animated:YES completion:nil];
Till now all have been working fine. But I've met such problem - when I click on facebook icon and enter the facebook sharing screen the alertView appears:
so the problem is - when I click Setting my controller is just dismissed and nothing happens. For twitter all is working well - when Settings button is clicked my app is going background and the Settings is opened. Why this does not work for Facebook? Any help will be appriciated.
ADDED:
Using SLComposeViewController leads to the same behavior - Settings does not open
iOS 6.0.1 resolve this issue. Update software on device it go setting view.
i am having the same issue you update the ios from 6 to 6.0.1 and remove the verification type **SLServiceTypeFacebook** in **SLComposeViewController** at first.,thats all working fine for me now.
This bug seems to be fixed in new version of iOS (6.0.1) At least I have all working well since my last updgrade.
I just integrated the facebook social framework into my app and had exact same issue on iOS 6.1, i.e. when my facebook account is not setup, I will get this warning, but clicking "Setting" will simply dismiss the dialog instead of bringing me to the device's setting page.
I found out this seems to be a simulator ONLY issue, it works perfectly on real device. I'd suggest you to give a try.

enter image description hereI want to open the app store when I click a certain button but, I have looked everywhere, and the code I have tried takes me to a safari link or doesn't do anything at all. can anyone help me? what i want it to achieve is that i hit the button and it opens up the app store with my specified app
UPDATE: i tried the method below and it opened oped up safari saying it could open the page
Zenprogrammer79 if your using the iOS simulator the link won't work because there is no App Store on the simulator but it should work on a real iOS device
zenProgrammer79 if you have a link to another app in the App Store, you can put this code in the section of where your button gets pressed (the IBAction) (objective-c)
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"link to the application link looks like https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/sugar-calculator/id1000071935?mt=8"]];
if you are using swift i believe this will work
UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string: "https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/sugar-calculator/id1000071935?mt=8")!)
if this doesn't work then your link to the app is probably wrong.
I'm developing a lockscreen application using theos and part of the functionality requires icon images of certain applications on the phone. How can I go about getting those icon images and displaying them on the lockscreen of the phone?
I've tried everything I could think of so far and have searched through the springboard headers with no luck. I've specifically been trying retrieving the images from SBApplication and SBIconModel from suggestions I found through google, but still I have no luck.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
After you %hook a class, inside the method you're using, do the following if for example you're trying to get the icon for the mail app
// Get the SBApplication for the mail app
Class $SBApplicationController = objc_getClass("SBApplicationController");
SBApplication *mailApp = [[$SBApplicationController sharedInstance] applicationWithDisplayIdentifier:#"com.apple.mobilemail"];
// Get the SBApplicationIcon for the mail app
SBApplicationIcon *mailAppIcon = [[objc_getClass("SBApplicationIcon") alloc] initWithApplication:mailApp];
The important thing is to get the right DisplayIdentifier of the app you're interested in.
Hope this help! any problems please shout.
Although, I accept the above as the answer, I ended up using the following code, which displays titles and badges:
SBIcon *sbIcon = [model applicationIconForDisplayIdentifier:identifier];
SBIconView *app = [[%c(SBIconView) alloc] initWithDefaultSize];
[app setIcon:sbIcon];
//if you want the titles to be conditional
[app setLabelHidden:!titlesEnabled];
//if you want the badge view to be conditional
id badgeView;
if (device_version >= 6.0) badgeView = MSHookIvar<id>(app, "_accessoryView");
else badgeView = MSHookIvar<id>(app, "_badgeView");
if (badgeView) [badgeView setHidden:!badgesEnabled];
I have a mobile web application, working well on simulator 5.1/6.0, xcode 4.5 for iphone.
But when I test on a real device (3gs, ios 5.1), I get a strange behavior: anywhere I place an input field html element, where I need the user to fill in something, I tap the field, it gains focus (I see the cursor), but the touch-keyboard does not come up and I can't type anything. If I try it on the sim, all is fine, the kb comes up.
I am not sure how to diagnose this... tried googling for some answers, haven't found any :(
any ideas?
thanks...
ok found the issue, seems like the app was not created using the latest Xcode template (it is a legacy app), so I removed the MainWindowxxx.xibs which I don't need, and used the code from a new XCode app template to initialize the app by programmatically creating the main view controller, and setting it as the window's rootViewController. And, of course, call [self.window makeKeyAndVisible]

I am using ShareKit plugin for iPhone to enable social sharing for the application I'm working on. I set up everything, I stripped it to have Facebook and Twitter services only, connected successfully to both and now I have 1 problem in each of the services...
The problem with Twitter is how to logout/signout...
ShareKit sends the text and the url to Twitter's publish box. It is saving status perfectly. The question is where to put "logout" button for twitter? I want the iPhone user to logout in order to change username. This is done by calling the method
[SHKTwitter logout];.
Now, the problem is where to put the button that will fire this method? In navigationToolbar of Twitter actionSheet I already have 2 buttons and the toolbar (bottom one) is covered by the keyboard?
[EDIT]: I solved this issue by modifying the twitter action sheet. I resized the textView and then added UIToolbar and changed its position so that it fits into the gap between the keyboard and textView. Into the toolbar I added one button with an action that calls a logoutTwitter method
Facebook problem is more of a mystery...
So, in my sharreKitButtonHandler I have the following code:
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.domain.com"];
SHKItem *shareItem = [SHKItem URL:url title:self.itemTitle.text];
SHKActionSheet *actionSheet = [SHKActionSheet actionSheetForItem:shareItem];
[actionSheet showFromToolbar:self.shareKitToolbar];
This code prepares some ivars of a shareItem object and in the case of Twitter shareKit manages to fill the status box so that user just needs to press publish and its done...
In the case of Facebook it is not working. FB dialog pops out and the share box is empty saying "What's on your mind?" The url and the title are not put into the publish form?
So, please if you have any clue what's going on in the latter problem or how to solve the former problem, I would really appreciate your help...
It takes five lines to add twitter. I wouldn't bother with Sharekit for that.
TWTweetComposeViewController *tweetView = [[TWTweetComposeViewController alloc] init];
[tweetView addImage:imageToShare;
[tweetView addURL:URLToShare];
[tweetView setInitialText:messageToShare];
[senderViewController presentViewController:tweetView animated:YES completion:nil];
I wanted to use sharekit for my projects, but it was difficult to use and after a week I gave up as I couldn't share more than one thing at the same time (URL, Image, Message, etc.) which is pretty useless if you want to promote your app.
Facebook is more difficult, probably a 100 lines. It took me 3-4 days to implement. It will be integrated in iOS 6 just like Twitter :)
