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 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 want to be able to launch the app when a timer, which the user sets, goes to zero. Will this keep my app from being accepted in the the app store?
Example: The user sets a timer and exits the app/turns off the app. When that timer hits zero the app launches and performs a function.
Officially, it is not possible

my question is:
would be feasible to modify the software to get calls? I intend to capture the action of the call attempt to operate accordingly.
Sorry for not being more explicit

You cant modify the default apps comes with iPhone.
but you can handle the event like missed call,call ended,call failed etc..
It is not possible to manipulate the method of making or receiving of phone calls on the iphone (using publically available APIs). An app can initiate a phone call but the phone call will be made using the Apple call application.

I am about to develop a new iPhone application in which I need to pay for some bills. I need to use Electronic Fund Transfer(EFT) system to make the payment. I have no idea in integrating the EFT method to the application. Share some useful ideas or links where can I get some ideas regarding EFT and the work flow.
for secure transaction you can use paypal and paypal also provided ios supported api for it they handle all details in a web view then getting details they return to app and do the transactions instead of these if you use any thing i think apple will reject the app or will ask you to implement the In App Purchase (IAP).

I need to either use or develop a Facebook logger application to track the status updates (or posts) of 100 company employees who are overseas in a sensative country (where each is a friend of my 'dummy' user). The reason is that they may unintentionally post sensative information and compromise our business venture.
I am in the process of trying out ThinkUp (link), which seems like overkill but a workable solution. What other secure tools are out there?
you can consider to write your own app, run that by using the dummy user's credential/toke,
the app can then periodically scan for the friend's status/posts.
A summary email/page can then be formatted.
