From my application i want to change the following settings of iphone :
I want to set the separate ringtones against individual contacts in iphone.
I want to set ringtone volumes against any contacts
Can I do these from my application?
Please help me to find the procedure as i am a totally newbie to this new technology of iPhone.
Thanks for your help in advance.

It's not possible to set/alter ringtone settings via the published iOS SDK (there are most likely "private" methods, but using these will result in your app being rejected), as otherwise any errant application could trivially make irritating changes.
i.e.: Only the user can change the ringtone settings.

I am working on an iPhone application, where i need to store an audio file(which i get from my server) as a ringtone on the iPhone device programmatically. Is it possible to do that? What are the APIs supported for it. And, Does the Appstore allow such apps to be released?
Thanks.
Most probably the user will have to do it himself. You can ease-up a bit this process
for him using iTunes file sharing. See:
How to add a ringtone from an application to ringtones of iphone?
You could also check the code of ringtonesapp.
No, you can't do this. There's no public API for this.
If you're doing this on a jailbroken device, you can just replace one of the default Apple ringtones with your ringtone.
Whenever I run an app on my iPhone, the app is keep overlapping.
I think it's because I'm using it as a team id.
Does anyone know if I can make multiple apps on an iPhone?
Thanks.
Make sure that, in the provisioning portal, you are using an AppID which allows multiple applications simultaneously. Something like 12345ABCDE.com.world.hello.*
Are you using the same bundle identifier for each app? You should be able to create and load as many apps as you want. Take a look in the info.plist files and see if the bundle identifiers are the same for some reason.
I am developing a iPhone alarm app.
I have to display the list of ringtones.
How can I obtain these names?
And then how use these ringtones for alarm?
Apple has set things up so that one cannot use or change the ringtones available programmatically -- see App Store Guidelines . You will need your own files for this.
It is possible to change iPhone settings from an application?
I want to change settings like enable/disable WIFI, enable/disable vibrations, change ring tone, enable/disable bluetooth, call forwarding, mail accounts, etc. I want to be able to change all settings programmatically. I would appreciate some sample code.
Thanks for any help.
You cannot do this unless your application is run on a jailbroken phone.
You can do some of these items programatically on a non-jailbroken phone. Toggling Bluetooth is discussed here, and it's very easy to get working. Programmatically turn on bluetooth in the iphone sdk?
I am not sure about the other items. Of course you cannot submit this code to the app store, but for personal use it can be very handy.
I am new to iPhone programming.
I created an application in Xcode. I want to change the application name and icon. However I can change the application name (which is appeared below the icon of application in iPhone) and icon from plist.
I want to ask that whether there are any other method or trick which i can use to change the icon and application name.
My project requirement is that end user want to change application name and icon frequently
As far as I know there is absolutely no way for the end user to change the application name or icon of applicaitons distributed via the App Store. I believe it would be possible to do this on jailbroken phones, but I'm not an expert in that area.
Jay is correct. You need to specify an icon and name for your app in the info.plist file. Those values can't be changed dynamically. If you want to change the name or the icon, you would need to fix them in xcode and submit an update to Apple for approval.

I disagree with the above answers.
Please go take a look at the free app on Itune, "OneTap" (or "onetap")
you will see that you can create a dynamicly new app with your own icon image.
There's definitely an app in cydia to accomplish this but you must jailbreak your iPhone or iPod touch
