I want to make iPhone application that use GPS to show nearby places (particular business offices) into table view starting nearest office at top of the table.
Location coordinates will come using location manager but i want my application do above tasks
Any suggestion how to implement all these things or any tutorial.
Thank you in advance i really appreciate any sort of help.
Search the SDK documentation either from XCode or developer.apple.com and you'll find a bunch of white papers and samples relating to your questions.
Edited to include samples...

All found with a simple search in the apple developer website, can't imagine what else you might need at this stage.

We have a client that has asked us to build an Augmented Reality iPhone App to be used at a show.
The experience will be location based, ie you will need to be at the show where the markers will be placed to use the app.
Does anyone know the process Apple take to test this kind of app? How will they be able to give approval if they cant test it without being on location and assess to the markers?
Is it possible to submit the markers to them as files to print out and test?!
Any info is MUCH appreciated as cant seam to find anything specific online.
Thank you,
Jason
Put them online and give your reviewer links to each image.
I've done this before with QR Codes.
I'm not interested in getting the stock data, but I want to create a smilar application that will have the exact same UI as Apple's Stocks application on the iPhone.
Does anybody know of a tutorial or open code repo that can show me how to do this?
There will be no such tutorial, because the stocks app use a huge number of different technics, and graphical effects.
If you read the ViewController Programming Guide, and then CoreGraphics (Quartz) Guide, then you are near to do it yourself.
Ask again if you have a more specific question.
I want to create a inside building map with multiple levels (building floors), directions (navigation), coordinates and statical locations (elevators, escalators, emergency exits, etc) but I don't know what software can I use for that.
Also I want to include this map on a iPhone app so other users can see it and interact with it. I don't know if it's possible to use Google Maps API to doing that.
I could use a image in Illustrator or Dreamweaver to create a image map, but I think that isn't a good option to update data (layout changes often).
Thank you very much!!!
I'll answer the question I asked three years ago, as this can help other StackOverflow users seeking answers to the same question.
Currently there are several tools that can be used to create indoor maps for iOS (iPhone and iPad) apps.
There are two tools that IMHO are the best options, and they have different approaches, as follows:
https://www.indooratlas.com/ - Indoor atlas detects variations to magnetic fields inside buildings to better identifies user's position. You can use smartphones (iPhone and Android) to sense and record these magnetic variations and to map indoor locations.
http://indoo.rs/ - Using iBeacons you can develop indoor maps and guide users with routes inside small our large buildings like malls, universities, museums, etc.
Both tools have APIs that you can use on your apps.
Firstly you need to decide how you want to deliver it. You indicate that it's not just on an iPhone and given it's a building map it probably changes a lot. So I'd be suggesting you look into doing it as a web site. If you go that way there are a whole range of technologies that you can employ to construct a web site. But basically there are two pieces you would need to research and consider. That being the technologies you want to employ on the web server to generate the site, and the technologies you want to use on the client (browser) to view the site.
I'd suggest searching for other similar sites and looking at how they do them. This can tell you two things - what works and what doesn't work.
Lastly you need to consider your strengths, what programming languages do you know? Is it practical for you to learn new languages and technologies for this? What's your budget like? Can you afford to contract the work? etc.
I am new to iphone stuff. After deploying an application in iTunes is there a way to find out the number of iphone/ipod touch which has installed / uninstalled this application ?
During uninstall the user is asked to rate the application, how to get that information with a developer license credentials ?
Apple tells you the number of sales (and the number of upgrades) in iTunes Connect. What they don't tell you is how many people have uninstalled your application or, more importantly, how many people are still using it n days after installing it.
You may be able to get this information (and more) using one of the third party analytic tools such as Flurry, although Apple has recently started to object to service like them. Another option would be to gather the same kind of information on your own server.
It would be really nice if Apple provided better information but, unfortunately, they don't at the moment.
All this data is provided through Apples iTunes connect site
https://itunesconnect.apple.com
Additionally you could subscribe to one of the support sites like
http://www.appfigures.com
which will give you nice graphs on sales etc
You should also take a look at Flurry Analytic's. Not only will it tell you how many unique devices it has been installed on, but you can add events as well. So lets say your app has a "Featured Listings" area or something like that. Flurry will log how many times people enter into the "Featured" area. It will help track conversion rates...
Also shows you the navigation path the user took. So they click on , "search", then they click on "homes", then they clicked on "featured"... yada yada yada... it provides excellent information.
If your app uses Core Location you can even see a dot on a map as to where the user was when they did all of this.

The information provided by iTunes Connect is the number of downloads of your app. The ratings and reviews are actually not provided via iTunes Connect, but you can find it indirectly on the app store.
There are some services that aggregate all this information for you. A new one is www.appannie.com which shows you both downloads and ratings.
For number of installed Apple just updated https://itunesconnect.apple.com site you can adjust the date range in the middle of screen (using the slider) or by adjusting the dates on top left corner after navigating to sale and trends screen to see how many downloads you have had.
I am new to iPhone development. I want to make a simple iPhone application which when launched computes the distance travelled by the user,calories burnt,postion of the user,movement.Can anybody provide me the details or approach to follow to develop this application.
Unfortunetely, it's not that simple.
You will have to learn xCode/Objective C/C#.
I suggest you start by getting a book, i recommend:
Beginning iPhone Development - Mark
LaMarcheiPhone for Programmers: An
app driven approachThe iPhone
developers cookbook
You should be able to find these as eBooks as well (if that's what you like).
Unless you want a step by step tutorial for a fitness program... Then you'll be out of luck.
Yes, follow the steps outlined in the following links:
iPhone Programming Tutorial
iPhone Development Guide: Quick Start
All you need is inside the Core Location framework (and some math).
If you don't know how to use the Core Location framework, just look at the Apple developer page, there are tons of sample code (and they should also have some sample video from the last techtalk)
It would have been better if you could ask a direct question rather than sharing an app idea. Which major problem areas you are facing while developing the app,
For initial iPhone app development, I will suggest to go through following link:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/referencelibrary/GettingStarted/RoadMapiOS/
For your application, you will need Location services, which should run in background too (while the application is in background) you can also consider content on Apple website:
https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201357
More over you will be able to calculate the distance covered, position and movement, through location services and based on this information and custom information provided by user, you will be able to calculate the calories burnt by applying simple math (totally depends on the logic you want to apply).
