I am trying to get a popup appear the first time an app is started. Just to give you an idea check the new version of foursquare. A small popup (like a comic) appear explaining where the checkin button is located. Then if you tap anywhere it goes away. I googled for the last hour but I have not found anything at all and I have no idea on how to do it.
Anyone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Umberto
You can show a customized UIlabel on app's load and then use performSelectorAfterDelay: and hide the label inside this method. For the tapping thing you can add a UITapGesture on your view to notify if some tap's occurred and hide the label if it's still there.

iTunes U for the iPhone has these wonderful buttons that show
the download progress
the stop button and the
play button (well, the "i" button)
in one place - see attached screenshot. Is this a system icon which can be called by code, or is it something thats not available for developers?
Anyhow: if someone has a source, that describes how to get such kind of buttons, I'd be very happy. It's clear to me, that the icons are controlled by a state-pattern in view-controller.
Thanks in advance.
There is DACircularProgress on github, it looks just like the circular progress bar on the Facebook app, I think you can take that, modify it to put the stop button on top and change the color and use it. check it out:

I have a problem and would appreciate it if you would help me.
I made a app from this tutorial:

It works great, but i need it without the search button. I want to see all the data when i start the app... without taping on the search button or anything else.
I am in the learning process and it would help me a lot if someone would answer.
On the link you will find all the codes i used in the app.
Thanks a lot!!

remove the button from the interface and just call the method associated with the tap of the button from your viewDidLoad.
OK, I know that HIG do not recommend to show several UIPopoverControllers at a time but still... is it possible anyway?
I tried to show two popovers one near another but can't figure out how to do it: first popover closes when other one appears :/

When I set the value 'true' to showCancel property in the method Titanium.UI.createSearchBar. It displays me the cancel button, but I would like to customize that button text to Go or anything else. How do I do that? Please give me suggestions. Thanks you so much.
I don't believe in Titanium Mobile SDK 1.4 you can change the button text.
As a work around you could add your own button to the screen and have it interact with the tableview. Not an ideal solution though.
Please find below the current documentation link.

I've gone through most of the example code and I still need some help. I want to make an uber-simple app: show one screen at startup with a label and a button. click the button and we slide over to another screen (I suppose these are called views) which has another label and the "back" button in the top menu bar. I just want to click back and forth between the two screens.
How do I do this?
Take a look at the NavBar sample on Apple's Developer website. http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/samplecode/NavBar/index.html
You'll need to use a UINavigationController to accomplish the "slide"/"back button" behavior you're talking about. It is as simple as you might think, as long as the app is setup correctly. Essentially, UINavigationControllers allow you to push and pop instances of UIViewController or subclasses thereof, and take care of the animation and view history tracking for you.
The best way to get started, by far, is just open XCode, choose "New Project", and start with the "Navigation-Based Application." Dig around that project for a while and I think you'll start to see clearly what needs to be done.
You can checkout how to get started with that using this tutorial: at wattz.net
