I have an app that I hired a company to build using Phonegap. The company is no longer able to support me with launching the app onto iTunes.
I have loaded the app and can compile it in Xcode. However the camera function is not working. I have tested the app before from a file they sent me and the camera function worked.
Is there special settings that you have to set in xcode 4 besides what is typical in order to use the camera?
You may be compiling for a different SDK. Make sure you are using the same one as before.
It shouldn't matter about the SDK you are working with.. the whole point of phonegap is to expose the native API's to javascript. So it's not the SDK, its the javascript. I am actually working on this now.. I will get back to you with my findings.

i want to integrate Pinterest to my app for both ipad and iphone version. for that i do some googling and find VMPinterest framework. i download its demo its working fine with iphone but not working with ipad version.
Following issue i find it
its not authenticate properly it showing signing is successfully every times although i pass wrong email or pass.
its not able to get the board name
plz help me out if any body used this framework for ipad or if you have another way to integrate Pinterest than plz answer or comment.
Thanks
Try to download this API from this link: https://github.com/Lascorbe/LASharekit
Its working fine for me. Merge this into your App.
I downloaded the latest version of VMPinterest framework (they have released a new version) and it does works perfectly with iPad (i have tested for ipad mini).
I would recommend VMPinterest framework. as unlike others it doesnt take you to web page but it directly get you post the image remotely.
They have also released a demo app using this framework - is live on appstore..
App link https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vmpinterest/id607998053?ls=1&mt=8
So the framework is appstore approved.
Its compatible with iOS 4.3 and above and runs on iPod touch/iPhone/iPhone5/iPad/iPad mini

I started a GWT project targeted for iPhone (and later for other mobile platforms). Now there's a problem:
* I can use Safari on iOS to test it, but I have to compile my app which takes a while even after performance optimizations mentioned for example how-do-i-speed-up-the-gwt-compiler;
* I can NOT use Safari in gwt-debug mode to make quick tests without compilation Java to JS because there's no GWT plugin for Safari on iOS.
So: is there a workaround for fast test of GWT app on iPhone?
Same thing here. I have been developing a GWT app using PhoneGap to bring it to iOs and Android. I ended up just using Firefox for development, every once in a while letting the app run in the iOS Simulator (coming with XCode). But since the app is using geolocation via PhoneGap, there was no way around installing it on the phone every once in a while to make sure it behaves.
I found some mobile dev emulators, one that is coming to my mind is called Ripple. There are others out there, but non of them worked for me.
I have built a Jquerymobile webapp , I want to take it a step further, build additional features and deploy it as an iphone app. I am confused on connecting these two dots. I looked at Phonegap and Titanium. Phonegap does not allows to register yet and Titanium seems like I have to code everything again using Titanium apps . Any ideas on how to bridge the gap of connecting iphone app and jquerymobile.
I use phonegap for my iPhone apps and it works well. Phonegap Build will even encode the iPhone (and Android, Blackberry, etc) app for you so you don't have to use Xcode.

Can you just take your already written JS code and use it as your source for a UIWebView? Those middle-ware platforms you mentioned have their own JS libraries you need to use, but if the code you already made will work as-is on an iPhone, dumping it into a UIWebView should be all you need to do.
I want to integrate flash in my iPhone application so is it possible to integrate?
You can write apps in Flash that will run on the iPhone by using the Packager for iPhone. It only works with Flash and not Flash Builder. Adobe just released a revision after Apple changed its SDK license again so that it can run. Note that to run on the iPhone your app has to be compiled by Flash to a native iPhone app. You can't run just any SWF.
Also yesterday Adobe announced AIR 2.5 which claims to let you program for one runtime (AIR) and target multiple platforms including iPhone and iPad. The release notes explain that they will be updating their Packager to work with AIR 2.5 for feature parity with AIR 2.5 for Android.
There is an application called Packager for iPhone from Adobe, which can be used to make iPhone app from Flash. I never used it though, but I think you should give it a try.
No.
Adobe Packager appears to only be able to create entire apps, not library code that will integrate inside a larger app. There also is no complete Flash interpreter in a form that you might be able to bundle with your app (although there appear to be a few open source projects that claim to run a limited subset of Flash). Thus there is no way to integrate Flash into a larger iPhone application that will run offline.
Online, you might be able to run a Flash application remotely on a server, and serve the graphic results to an iPhone app using something like the VNC protocol.
A new parser called hiramkei will soon be available for adding Flash animation SWF files into Xcode projects for iPhone. Here is the site http://www.flash-on-iphone.com/demo
Can I successfully do iPhone/iPad web development (not native apps) on Windows, and without having an iPhone/iPad device?
I.e. work like PSD-to-iPhone-optimized XHTML/CSS layout.
I’m interested to learn about and make iPhone/iPad optimized websites. Any tips? How different will it be from desktop? What’s different other than the smaller screen?
From experience I will say the only true way to test for the iPad is to test on an iPad. I have been developing a site in html5 specifically for an iPad and we initially used the iPhone to test. The drag function we had implemented with jQuery had worked almost perfectly on the iPhone but after the client had tested on the iPad they came back to us and said the function did not work period and they were correct.
I guess this could change depending on what type of development you are doing. From experience I would say either A. Make some trips to the apple store B. Make friends with iPad owner C. Buy and iPad
yes for an ipohne emulator... try MobiOne.
It's a good application to test the pages in iphone like environment.

I don’t think you can really do iPhone/iPad development successfully without an iPhone/iPad at all, whether on Windows, Mac or Commodore 64.
If you’re serious about iPhone/iPad development, how could you not try your software out yourself on the devices it’s going to run on? Your clients are going to want code that works on the iPhone/iPad. You need an iPhone/iPad to check that it works.
if your developing a web app then i think you can use this: http://ipadpeek.com/
The answer is: Yes you can absolutely do iPhone and iPad website development on a Windows PC.
However, you really should/must test the result on an actual iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad. Especially if you are integrating in any way with special device features like the dialing feature of the phone. (Yes you can have phone numbers in a webpage trigger dialing when you tap on them.)
However, you can do the bulk of the development on Windows, testing the WebApp in Safari or Chrome, which are the most fully compliant HTML5 WebKit based browsers out there.
Also highly recommend using an HTML5 touch framework like jQuery Mobile or Sencha Touch. This will go a long way to ensuring that your WebApp is optimized for the screen size and touch gestures of the mobile devices.
Remember that you can't deploy a pure WebApp to the app store, only download it from a website. You'll need a native wrapper like PhoneGap for that. And to compile a PhoneGap wrapped WebApp you'll need XCode on a Mac.
But there's a lot of power in adding your WebApp to the home screen on iOS. No native code involved and you get a full screen webapp with a home screen icon, loading image and no browser toolbars. Highly recommended.
