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 need help to learn iPhone application development. Where should I start?
I started by reading the great "Beginning iPhone Development" Book (see Amazon) and parallel to it I created a really small application. And when I was trapped in problems the Apple tutorials are also a great resource. But the important thing is to start with a really simple app, which you really want to get into the application store. That give motivation. :)
I learned Objective C and iOS development with Stanford University CS 193P classes : videos, slideshows, and exercices. For me it's the best resource ever. After that you'll only need Google, the Apple Documentation, and a bit of StackOverflow to solve little issues.
If you want to start development of iPhone applications you must start to view some sources of other applications, but you must have some base knowledges in C++, Objective-C or C# because without that knowledges you cant start development. If you know one of this languages you can start development ... You can search some code examples and use this. I start my first program with help of documentation ... You must try hard ... Good Luck !!!

I would recommend you read a book or online tutorial. There are literally hundreds of such resources, and this will assist you in understanding how to write iPhone apps, and give you ideas for projects. For getting started, it doesn't matter which book you choose - the basics are all the same.
I was wondering what would be the steps I need to follow if I am just an individual looking to write my own apps and get it approved by apple to feature on their store. Also, is it just objective-c I need to learn or what other skills would I require ?
What would be a good tutorial or a place to start ? What are the tools I require? I found this but still for those of you developing there...I would appreciate any help sorry if this was too generic..all I want is good direction..
Personally I think that books are a good way to learn. For example, here are a few:

You will need:
An Intel Mac
XCode
A $99 developer fee if you want to actually build for a device/put it on the actual device
I recently started with iPhone app development in school. I read the Head First iPhone book which was a decent start just to get into it. I highly recommend the iPhone lecture series from Stanford University available for free on iTunes U.
I agree with Andrew M - but would add that Apple's sample code is a good way to learn by example. You can look at code and reference material without becoming an iOS Developer.
iOS Reference Library
You can do a lot in the iPhone Simulator but at some point you will need to pony up $99 (per year) to start testing on devices.
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 knew C, Cpp, Java, Servlets, JSP and Objective C. Now, i want to do some web related application in iPhone. I have Mac system, XCode and all. Also i registered in developer.apple.com. My problem is, where can i start to learn about development?
So many documents are available in Apple's site. But in each document, they gave a lot of links for other documents and said "before reading this read this" I just hate it.
So please give me a clear way to learn about iPhone development. Tell some other better sites for easy learning about SDK codings if you know...
Thank you all...
Start at a hello world and work your way up. The best way is to just purchase a book on the subject.
This one looks pretty basic http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beginning-iPhone-Development-Exploring-SDK/dp/1430224592/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281003097&sr=8-1
Apple documentation is wonderful.
Begin with Learning Objective-C: A Primer to familiarize with the language and then take a look at Your First iOS Application.
I am looking for resources (especially video) to show how to use Xcode's interface builder properly for iPhone development. For some reason it just doesn't click how everything fits together and how this should be used properly.
Thanks
Stephen
Aside from the example apps and videos on Apple's iPhone Dev Center, Pragmatic Programmers have a good book and some decent videos as well.
Another site is iPhone Programming Tutorial. It's free, but I am considering buying the videos and book mentioned by Abie.
Edit: Decided to look through my history and found this dead link.
