Does anyone know if the popup in the attached screenshot is standard in the SDK? I'm trying to figure out how to make it and don't really want to start from scratch.
It's not standard in the SDK (actually it is, but it's private so you can't use it in AppStore apps).
However, there's a lot of open source components that do exactly that.
My favourite is SVProgressHUD, but a popular alternative is MBProgressHUD.

I know a lot of similar questions have been asked, but my case is a little different.
I have a windows machine on which I want to do the development. I can borrow my friend's mac for signing/publishing to store or other things.
Is it possible to do this? Can I create a "Dynamic Web App Project" in eclipse, do the coding and finally use a MAC to finish it? My app is 100% offline app.
Where can I find the directory structure for the HTML/CSS files?
How can I achieve the iphone look and feel of buttons and other UI?
I know that many people have done this but I cant find any tutorial. Please point me to one if you know about it.
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like this would be a great job for phone gap.
http://phonegap.com/
They provide wrapping software to make your web application run natively on the phone.
It sounds to me like you should look at phonegap for the coding.
For getting your buttons, backgrounds, icons and such to look and feel more like native iOS apps, take a look at this list of graphics for iOS. Most are free. There are .zip files with pre cut images, and a number of .psd files for you to choose from. If you are not using xCode or Titanium to build the apps, these are a nice way of getting that native look and feel.
i wanted to display the list of files like it is done in itunes .how can it be done please help me out im a beginner
the screen shot is here
That thing you are referring to is called coverflow and there is open source library that provides such functionality
https://github.com/devinross/tapkulibrary
The CoverFlow API Apple uses is (I think) still private, there's open source implementations like OpenFlow, there's lots of resources on how to get started with it if you dig around on Google.
What I want to do is to make an iPhone application for my website similar to the photofunia. The users will be able to select an effect from a list, and then upload their own photo. Then the result will be shown in the browser where the user can save the image and/or publish to website like facebook, etc.
What software can I use to do that? Phonegap, appcelerator, etc? Can some of these help?
Thanks.
First of all, you may be able to make an iPhone app using Adobe Flash and the Adobe Packager for iPhone.
The other option is to get a Mac and Learn Objective-C.
There is no "easy" solution here.
Create a webservice for your website and try to use that in your iPhone Application
Of course I know there is no "easy" solution, but I'm almost sure there are other options for making iphone apps, instead of using Objective-C.
I only don't know the name of the tools.
Flash doesn't works. Adobe Air currently doesn't offer a way to access the camera roll on the ios.
I have an iPhone application, now i want to convert that application to a universal application which runs on all the devices iPhone/iPod/iPad.
So, where to start, what things i need to do?
Any help, link, sample app, anything, will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance :)
I've done that recently, it's actually much simpler than it would seem. I recommend you read the iPad programming guide from Apple, it's about 100 pages in PDF (and you don't need to read all of it). Basically, you need to:
run a command in Xcode that automatically converts your project to Universal
add support for orientation changes, if you haven't done that earlier (it's required on iPad)
go through the app, see what's broken and fix it (e.g. it's likely that you'll see some places where you need to fix autoresize settings for controls)
That's of course if you don't want to redesign the UI for iPad, which you'll probably want to do in the end (e.g. use split views, popup dialogs and various modals, and do less full screen view transitions). The UI that you'll get by going through this steps won't feel 100% iPad-y, but it will work, and will look much better than an iPhone-only app zoomed in, so it's a good start.
In order words, can anyone tell me the basics of how to create a "hybrid" iPhone application? I want to load the web content (the Dashcode app itself) from the native application's application bundle.
I've gotten this to partially work, but some content won't display and it otherwise seems like Dashcode is assuming a certain Safari environment or something that I don't seem to have in my UIWebView.
Can anyone provide a link to some sample code that embeds a Dashcode project into a cocoa touch Xcode project?
(I did search around Google for a bit trying to find something and I failed to come up with anything worthwhile, except for some books that I might eventually buy if the approach seems worthwhile.)
After a while I answered my own question here. It looks like http://quickconnect.sourceforge.net/browser/index.html will show me want I want to know even if I don't actually use the framework.
