I have an iPhone App and I want to add the functionality that the user of this App can post on his wall with this iPhone App.
I know I have to create an App for my Facebook Account. But I haven't got a "normal" Account, I have a Page Account (created here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/create.php). But it seems it is not possible to create Apps for Accounts like this, right?
By the way, I have a Page Account because the iPhone App is from a company, not a single person.
To create an application, you must have standard Facebook account (not Page account). Then install Facebook Developer App (it needs to be approved over the phone).

I have an iOS Bussiness app, which used Facebook to login. Now I have access to the friends list. Is there a way to send a request to a Facebook friend (who is currently not using app) to install my App. My app is Bussiness app category not the game.
this site shows all the information that you want:

All new apps after April 30,2014 now require approval to use publish_actions. I have a desktop application that posts to user's facebook walls. The users used to be able to create their own apps buy simply naming it, adding their contact email, setting it to a desktop app and taking it out of sandbox mode. Now, it seems they will need to submit their apps for approval in order to post. The problem is the approval submission requires a platform selection. The FB app doesn't use any of the platforms listed. It's not a mobile app and it's not a website. The app is merely a way for desktop users to post to their wall once they log in. So what needs to be done in order to get new apps approved for this?

Desktop apps should submit a Web platform and include detailed screenshots or a screencast of the integration.
We built an iOS app and released it on App Store with a Facebook App Id, which was created by one of our developers using his own Facebook user.
Now, the developer has left and we need to alter a few settings of the app, but we do not have his login credentials to login as him. I know it should not have been this way to start with.
We do have the Facebook App Id, in the code.
What are possible solutions to this:
Is it possible to transfer the app to another user?
If I create a new app with another user and use the new Facebook App Id, how would it affect existing users of my app?
If you create a new app it will have an entirely different app id and secret. Your users would have to sign up for the new app. You would not be able to migrate the users to your new app, they would have to authorise it as if starting from scratch.
What you need is to get the old developer to add one of your accounts as an admin role to the existing app. This would give you complete control over it. Obviously this involves getting in touch with your previous developer and hoping they are nice enough to do it!
There is a section called "roles" on the dashboard for an app. This is where they will need to add your account.
I developed two apps with facebook integration in both the Apps , my requirement is if i opend one app and login to facebook account , and if i open second app it should login at the same time .
Thanks

This isn't really possible, since both apps would then have to use the same Facebook App ID.
And since the Facebook App ID is should be part of the App URL scheme, iOS can't see the difference between the two apps and will open the one installed last.
You can try an store the Facebook login data in the keychain and use that in the other app, but not sure if that will work.
We're about to deliver an application to the app store.
To enjoy the app, the user have to enter a Facebook login info (Using Facebook-connect API for iPhone).
Now, to deliver the app to Apple's app store, they (Apple) ask us to provide a username+password (account info) for testing issues.
That's great, but, since our app based on Facebook account info and not our own database, do we have to provide a Facebook account info?? because if the answer is YES, it means that we have to open a fake account in Facebook.
So, does anyone know the answer?
Do we have to provide a Facebook account info in the Apple's application upload form?
I had a similar thought when delivering an app that interacted with Twitter. In the user account box on iTunesConnect I wrote something like "Enter the details of any Twitter account" and it passed the app store validation process fine.
We submitted several apps to the store that required a Facebook account and we supplied Apple with an account that we just created. However, from our logs, the Apple reviewers logged in with their own accounts :)
To be on the safe side, I would suggest that you create a fake Facebook account and add in the reviewer's notes textfield, better safe than sorry.
