I want to get a list of all the application in iPhone.
There is a website that shows the code on how to do it.
http://amitay.us/ihasapp/index.php
But it doesn't get all the list from an iPhone.
I heard this is possible with Jailbroken phone.
Is this possible if I get the iPhone enterprise library.
I can't find a clue in Enterprise Deployement Guide.

I'm using MobiOne to build an App (I don't have a Mac or know Obj-C), but I'm wondering how to compile the App into Obj-C. Has anyone tried this? I have my design done and tested in the emulator, but do not see how to build the code.
My understanding is that MobiOne is not designed to be uploaded to Apple's app store. You can use Phone Gap to help get your app into a native environment since MobiOne uses web technologies. Phone Gap should allow you to publish to the app store, but the app is still subject to Apple's quality control system.
EDIT: You will still need a mac to publish the app. Or you can just use the app as a website on your device(s).
You can build the app with the Mobione built-in compiler. Go to the "Project" menu and click "Build iOS app" and your app will be compiled. You cannot compile with Obj-C.
Compile it into an iOS native app using Mobione on Windows. Upload it to the App Store using Apple's Application Uploader on a Mac. Easy.
According to Apple, you are not supposed to make iPhone apps without a mac. Also learning objective c MIGHT just be a good first start before making an app.
The first comment in your question provides a link, and one of the first paragraphs in that link states this:
"The traditional approach to iOS application development requires developers to create their apps using Apple’s Objective-C programming tools and Macintosh(tm) hardware. MobiOne runs on your Windows OS (Win7 to XP) hardware and offers developers an alternative cross-platform programming model based on HTML5 open web standards and virtual device services, e.g., contacts, camera, audio... "
Of course this allows you to do it, but that doesn't mean that the appstore will accept your app if you try and submit it through MobiOne. I'm not too sure on the subject, but I would do some research and figure out if apple allows you to do this.
I have tried looking for some answers but could not get anything concrete from the other questions in here.
I am looking for an answer to these two questions:
Using PhoneGap, if I create an iPhone web app, can I use it as
plain web app (i.e. without using iTunes to deploy it)? Just via a
web url?
Using PhoneGap, can an iPhone web app check for wifi
connectivity? i.e. If wifi/3g is available, if wifi is available,
can it scan for ssids.
Thanks for any help in advance.
You can create host the web app on your own server (or local). Then it is accessible via web url. If you want to use it as a normal app (there are differences - phonegap uses few native plugins for better experience), then you must have a developer license from apple and then deploy it to your device. Otherwise you can only use the simulator. You can also use Safari + USB to debug your app using the browser.
It is possible but limited. Only certain functionalities are available. Check out the following plugin for cordova (phonegap):
cordova-plugin-wifi
Good luck!
I'm developing a Mac application to share the files (video, images) to Facebook using the Facebook API.
In the Facebook SDKs & Tools, I can find only iOS SDK (iPhone & iPad), but not the one specific for Mac application. Does it mean we've to use the iOS SDK for the Mac apps too? If so how can I make use of iOS SDK in Mac application? Actually I tried to use iOS, but it was not successful, and not only that even I had to re-install frameworks which I was using for some other purposes too. The error was related to NSString.
Can anyone advise me in integrating the Facebook API for my Mac application?
There is one sample code written by someone.I've seen on internet. Here you go

I'm only after a simple solution and won't be developing anything particularly complex. But I'm wondering whether the hassals of developing an iPhone app NOT on MacOS are really that significant to avoid giving it a shot. Bearing in mind that I do have access to a mac every now and again. So I would be able to compile it using the official Apple supported SDK, but I just want to be able to develop it in my own environment (windows laptop).
I heard someone mention a while ago that there are various objective C compilers that allow writing code in various other web technologies as well. Are these really valid.
And am I alone in thinking Apple's whole attitude towards this is totally imoral. Charging $200 for the privelege of having your app unequivocally rejected etc etc and then not being allowed to look directly at Steve Jobs or his golden retrievers.
It depends on what sort of app you're developing - web app, or native iphone app. There are benefits and drawbacks to both.
You can make (and host) an iphone web app on any platform, and write it in pretty much any language. There are projects like iui to make your web app look more like an iphone app. You also don't have to pay to get into the iPhone developer program, but your app isn't available through the app store - it's just a web site. In the newest version of the iPhone OS you can bookmark a site to your site to the "desktop" - making it possible to launch your web app just like any other iPhone app.
If you're making a native iPhone app, again, it depends what sort of app you're making. If it's a game, you can develop it in C (ObjectiveC is a superset of C) and OpenGL ES, and just make a thin ObjectiveC iPhone app wrapper to launch your game. If you're making a "regular" iPhone app with widgets, etc. this is very difficult (if not impossible) without developing on a Mac - in addition to ObjectiveC you'll need the Mac and iPhone libraries - things like Cocoa, etc. that just aren't available on any other platform.
There are also some cross-compiler options here too - MonoTouch for Mono/.NET, Flash cross-compiling and probably more. You'd still need a Mac / iPhone developer account to ultimately test the result in iPhone simulators or on an actual device.
As for how 'imoral' this is of Apple/Steve Jobs - it's the difference between a closed platform and an open platform - some video game systems are also closed platforms also and you pay for the privilege of developing an app for them - and they have the option to censor / prohibit your app/game from their platform. The iPhone is just the most current and popular version of this. If you don't like it - develop an Android app instead :)
If you don't want to work on a Mac, you should look into developing a web-application for iPhone.
A) You can develop it on your pc
B) You can test everything on your iPod or iPhone
C) No, review by Apple
I am planning to make an iPhone web application and I just wanted to know what is required for web development?
Can I do the web development on a windows machine? Does Apple provide any iPhone plugin so that we can develop web application using Windows?
What is required for developing on a Mac?

Amit
If you are making a web application, you can download Safari for Windows and view it there.
You can also use Joe Hewitt's iUI framework to make your app look and feel all iPhone-y.
? If you are gonna build a web application, the application runs on the browser. To use your application the user use Safari (on the iPhone). Apple doesn't control web applications.
If you mean, embed your web application, INSIDE a native iPhone application, you need a Mac to build the wrapper, for the core application you can use whatever system you want.
May I suggest to take a look at phonegap (if you are looking to iPhone app).
Check out these three apple sites:
http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/codinghowtos/Mobile/GraphicsMediaAndVisualEffects/index.html
http://developer.apple.com/safari/
http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/navigation/CodingHow-Tos.html
I would check out these pages thoroughly, and also at a minimum, I'd download safari for mac or windows.
Yes, you can develop it on windows. They are just web apps.
For mac or windows, latest safari and a public website is probably all you need. Check out google app engine for a good free development site that supports a database/datastore. www.appspot.com
Also, you can look at the webapps on a regular computer. http://www.apple.com/webapps/travel/staycation.html

I presume you are talking about creating a web application designed to be used from an iphone.
The iphone uses safari as its browser. You can download this for use on windows and it should give you an accurate representation of how your app will look when rendered on an iphone. However in order to test how well your app performs on the phone, and if it really is usable using the touch screen the I think the only way to be really sure is to test using the iPhone.
You can use safari for windows to test the rendering but for your final tests you need to use a real iphone in order to understand how your users will experience it.
