I have an application in which, after running it and selecting setting of iPhone, inside the application name, there should be a button.
I know that through settings.bundle we cannot add a button.
So is there some way to do it programmatically?
Or else can we add a uitableviewcell to settings same like safari and all so that it looks like a button?
Please guide me in this.
Thanks in advance
According to this post it is not possible.
If you are not bound to use the iPhone system settings you may have a look at the inAppSettingsKit

I have multi-selection dialog(drop-down) in Android where user selects all options applicable to him in registration page.What can be used in Iphone for the same purpose ?
And selecting a few options will unhide few textfields which is mandatory to fill.
Let me know what can be my approach.Please share any open source code links.
Thanks in advance.
No, there is no such thing within the iOS SDK and that is for a good reason - those elements are just not pretty, funky and usable well enough when acting on a touch display.
Consider using UIPickerView or UISegmentedControl instead. Maybe also have a look at Action Sheet.
In my app, when it runs for the first time, it shows a UIViewAlert and offers you to see the preferences for the app - and the user has 2 choices - yes or no. If the user hits no the alert fades away and the application continues running. I want to set it in such a way, that if the user hits yes, my app will go to the background, the settings tab of the app will be opened (I added a settings bundle to the app). Is it possible to do such a thing? Thanks!
No, this is not possible. But you can create a settings view in you app and show it instead of trying to open the settings app.
Normally, you do want to encourage users to use your app as long as possible, and making them quit your app yourself is not the best way to achieve that.
No, this isn't possible.
But you could use InAppSettingsKit and modally show a view controller with the settings inside the app.

I am writing an app and I want to show the login screen just like in iPhone where you have to enter 4 digit code to login. What's the best way to do this? Is there a UIView that comes with the SDK or will i have to design my own keyboard
Thanks
CocoaControls is an excellent site to browse Cocoa & Cocoa Touch custom UI components:
http://cocoacontrols.com/
You can use PINView: http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/pinview
Or KVPasscodeViewController: http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/kvpasscodeviewcontroller
Or JSLockScreen: http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/jslockscreen
Previously answered at steps / idea for a Iphone passcode like custom interface for Application: this option from that question looks promising (see https://github.com/vikingosegundo/KeyPad).
You can use this latest source code to do so. URL is https://github.com/abury/ABPadLockScreen
Hopes this will help you.
I am developing an iPhone app which uses Settings.bundle to let the user choose some options.
I have two questions regarding this:
How can I completely remove/hide some setting? (for instance if the app is running on iPhone 3G I want to hide settings regarding the compass)
How can I disable (fade) a setting? (for instance, I have two Toggle Switches and if the first is set to OFF the second one has no meaning and should be disabled)
You can't. Your app cannot dynamically influence what is shown in the Settings app.
Is there a library or good tutorial which covers creating in-app settings, like this:

What I would like is if it:
doesn't use the built-in Settings app, and does not replicate it's settings in the Settings app
is controlled by a plist file with various Dictionaries and Arrays
creates a nice looking table view
allows edit-in-place text fields as well as switches and sliders and ticks etc
doesn't have any of the annoying problems I've come across when trying to build my own version (not scrolling to show the textfield, cells disappearing)
JUST TO EMPHASIZE: I DO NOT WANT THE SETTINGS TO APPEAR IN THE SETTINGS APP.
It would appear that the iphone dev world is crying out for such a thing.
THANK YOU!
InAppSettingsKit
I've used the open source project InAppSettings, and it works well.
