Is there any step by step source code/video or any other kind of help to implement in-app-purchasing ? I have tried many tutorials but still i am not able to get perfect solution for the in-app-purchasing..
What is the use of shared secret key?
I think that the best guide ever is the official In App Purchase Programming Guide, since it's full of examples, piece of codes, hints and so on. Following and reading carefully the Guide will surely help you in writing a fully functional test project.
In the meanwhile you could want to look at the MKStoreKit v4 add-on for your project to help you handle your in-app purchases in a easier way.

Please put the great sites for learning objective c, essential things to iphone apps, UI codings like this with examples and codings....
Thanks....
I would recommend downloading the Stanford University videos using iTunesU in iTunes. Very informative and the course data and downloads are still available on Stanford's website.
The course page is here http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs193p/cgi-bin/drupal/
The videos are free in iTunes.
Apple's iOS Dev Center may be the most useful online all-in-one resource that you can find.
They provide coding how-to's, getting started videos, sample code, and other such general resources, combined with all of the technical knowledge (SDKs, reference libraries, etc.) that you'll eventually need.
In the very beginning I used resources from the Stanford University videos and then read some of the official iOS guides and references. Then I started working on an app project and tailored my learning around that. It's very difficult to learn all of iOS programming in one go without working on a project because the API is a lot to digest.
Once you've learned some of the iOS programming lingo, I would go ahead and use stackoverflow and the official developer forums to search for specific examples and solutions to the problem you are having while building your app.
Learn by doing!
Video tutorials are a good way to learn objective C. But i would suggest that at a initial stage it can help you but when you go deeper inside into programming want to play with objective C you should opt some time to look into the Apples Documentation. Apple's Documentation provides everything .
Dont miss thier Sample Code also.
I have been programming in Microsoft Dot net for the past 4 years. Now, I want to develop an iPhone application. I have no idea where to start. I do not know anything about MAC OSX or any other Apple "words":). Searches on the google about books and online articles fetch a lot of results which is confusing. It would be great if anybody can share their beginner's experience. Thank You.
I've learn all about iPhone programming with this great book: Beginning iPhone 3 Development.
I found it surprisingly easy to pick up. The Apple dev center includes a lot of sample code, and because it's the programming language du jour, there's a lot of forum links and StackOverflow questions about it, as well as plenty of people looking to answer new questions.
It's pretty satisfying to do too, if you've never done mobile development before.
Get yourself a machine and download XCode, the supplied Apple IDE. It's a bit lamer than Eclipse right now, but the new version which is on the verge of release looks much better. Grab yourself access to the developer center (which is worth the investment) and build a simple App or two. Get to know Interface Builder first, because you may not have worked with things like this before.
There are some idiosyncracies in the syntax and whatnot, but you get used to it pretty fast. And then come here and ask more questions. :)
I just ran through this tutorial to get familiar with XCode and Interface Builder.
Then joining a local group about it should be helpful - I'm a member of the Iphone London Users Group and chats with other developers is the most useful tool I have to find out how to do things.
I was considering developing an application which would:
1) form part of a suite of similar applications; and
2) allow the user to download additional chargeable content.
I would be extremely grateful if somebody could point me in the direction of any resources where this approach is discussed programatically and practically (i.e. Apple's requirements for doing so as well as code samples outlining the appproach).
I think what you have in mind is In App purchases, you can start with the in app purchase guide from Apple and the quick start guide. I've implemented this and found it very effective and fairly simple to implement.
Programmatically it uses the StoreKit framework which is described in the guide I posted above.
If you want to address the suite of apps you can also run ads that cross promote them, I've seen admob used for this it has an in-house ad feature that allows you to serve ads for your own applications for free across your own apps.
You can charge for additional content with In App Purchases. After reading Apple's In App Purchase Guide as recommended by paulthenerd, you can also check out ilime.com and urbanairship.com. These are services which make In App Purchases easier to implement.
I want to be able to let users of my iPhone app communicate using the GKVoiceChatClient classes. The documentation for the 3.0 SDK is very vague and I don't see any good samples in the Sample Code either.
Can someone please tell me where I can find some working example of in-game voice using which I can learn how to use it!
Thanks.
You'll need an account on the Apple Developer forums, but I stumbled across this a little while ago. I don't know if its functional but comments further along in the thread lead me to believe it is.
Example in the Apple Developer forums

In an application I am developing I need to integrate the In-app-purchase concept, I have read the apple documentation but still don't completely understand how to completely integrate the system and make the call.
Does anyone know if there is an example out there to help me put me on track?
