I like to develop an iphone app which contains Carousel style menu items. I found this style in "CNBC RT iphone app". I searched this over many times but there is no library available. Please help me out.
If you mean something like this:
Then your question has already been asked. Check out this question on SO:

Thanks
That way of displaying images is called Coverflow - see the question discussing open-source libraries for iphone with cover-flow implementation.
To the libraries listed there I would also add Tapku library.
For example, in CNN's iPhone app, if you rotate the phone into landscape mode, it shows all the stories as pictures that you can scroll with your finger. It looks really polished with even a "reflection" effect. I've seen another app also do this, leading me to believe that it is a standard iPhone SDK API.
Here is a link to a screenshot from the CNN app so you can see what I'm talking about:

Anyone know what Class this is?
Thanks!
Try this: Open source CoverFlow library for iPhone
Also do a google search for Coverflow. I think that might do what you want or something close to it.
Im just wondering if anyone knows the best approach to make a configuable button menu. Im trying to make one like the standard iphone button interface where I will 4 buttons across and 4 buttons down. And like on the iphone button menus, when you press and hold it allows the users to move the buttons around to the configuration they desire. Also like the facebook iphone app menu.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Your best bet is probably the Three20 Library. It has lots of general functions, but specifically you would use TTLauncherView, which is derived from the Facebook application. There is an example included in library source, which can be downloaded Here.
Another option that doesn't use the Three20 library is to use paging with the UIScrollView.
I'm trying to develop a grid-like application for the iPad. Has anyone seen a control that displays info in a grid? In the demos they use a grid-like layout in both the iBooks store and the pictures application.
Specifically in pictures, they are displaying a dynamic list of data in a grid.
I can work around it, of course, but I'd rather use a control if one exists. Thanks!
DTGridView:

You should try AQGridView it does what you need.
Here are few screens of apps that use this library:
The people who know what controls are or or not in the 3.2 iPhone dev tools have all committed to Apple NDA so we can't tell you.
Steve is always watching.
If you have signed the NDA you should go to the Apple boards and ask.
You can however, make a gird like display very simply with the standard UITableview. Just have a tableviewcell subclass that displays columns. It took me about an hour to reproduce the photo picker display using that method.
Nope, you will have to create your own. People have been writing Home Screen compatible views though, so you might want to search for open source projects with that functionality.
For any of you out there who have had a chance to download the iPhone 3.2 sdk and play around with the simulator knows that one of the apps built in is a contacts book. When you open this app up it looks like a book, and has a nice user friendly way to edit and view contacts. So if I wanted to make an app that uses a similar format, meaning I'd want it to be a book, that would allow for editing and viewing of different items. How would I do that? Is there a book template I just don't know about? :) I'm guessing that the book is just a nice photoshopped image that they are just laying the respective uiviews over the image but I may be wrong...any insights as to how I'd be able to implement a book as described would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
I recently built an app that had a "contacts" functionality. I personally didn't want a book, so instead using photoshop, created a clipboard image for my background. The background they are using that looks like a book, is just that, a background image. they have other views and functionality built into the view controllers to make it slide around for editing.
