I m trying to implement Push Notifications in Iphone SDK 4.0.I have done up to the point of generating Token for device.I don't know how to proceed further.I need example to test Push Notification.
Thanks
No easy answer for this, but you might want to start with the programming guide (link below). Be aware that you'll also need a server to generate the push notifications - you could enlist a 3rd party service for this - like Urban Airship

Good luck. Andrew
If you want an open source alternative you have one in PHP:
PHP Apple Push Notification Provider

I need to know if its possible to make push notifications without use the APNS.
And if it can be done, what are the best options?
Web server ->pushNotification-> Device
What about the VoIP apps? --> Can we push notification without using APNs?
Thanks.
No, there is no way to use Push notification without APNS. This is restriction from Apple and is documented here
No you can not push notification to a device without using Apple's push notification service.
It is not possible to display push notifications for your application in the same way that the built in push notifications appear without using the Apple Push Notification Service.
You may be able to set up some kind of web socket-based solution, but that will not work when your app is in the background, thus defeating the point.
Check out Urban Airship
Push Composer makes sending Push Notifications simple for anyone in your organization. By putting the power of engagement into the hands of your business team, you can empower them to reach your customers quickly without adding strain on your engineering team. And because you can preview your message as you write it, you’ll know exactly how your users will see and engage with your message.
I would like to use Push Notifications for my iOS app. What is the best resource that shows on how to implement this service? Also whats tools are available so I could try a simple Push Notification.
I'd recommend Urban Airship because it is free for a certain amount of Push Notifications, and they provide a guide on getting it setup.
Any one know how to register ATOM push from Iphone Device. I am really stuck at this point.

Also have list of city and state from http://alerts.weather.gov/. I need to register alerts for this county.
If any one know it please respond me.
Thanks

For push notifications you will need to setup a push server. You can't use an other apps push server because the app identifier will not match.
Here is a nice tutorial on push servers: http://blog.boxedice.com/2009/07/10/how-to-build-an-apple-push-notification-provider-server-tutorial/
i need a rundown on how to fully utilise the push notification system. Iv read the push notification guide on the apple website but still unclear of some things.
Lets say i have a windows PC and an iPad.
1) what should the PC be configured with to become a "provider"? Should it be configured to be like a server, giving out data upon requests.
2) How does the provider send the token to the APNs?
The reason for using the push notification system is so that i can invoke a (tablereload data) method so that it would update the table as it has some custom images added as its subview so it would change images if some conditions in the server side were met.
Thanks for reading guys , hoping for any kind of feedback or help.
Cheers, Ephist
For anything other than development and testing, you'll generally want to run the provider on a server infrastructure that's not hosted on a home Windows machine.
You can either use a commercial provider like iLime or Urban Airship, but there's also a few tutorials and open source solutions out there:
EasyAPNS (Push notifications using PHP & MySQL)
How to build an Apple Push Notification provider server (tutorial)
PHP Apple Push Notification Server
Programming Apple Push Notification Services (contains details on certificate configuration)
There's also a local test app for Mac OS called PushMeBaby that you can use for development purposes.
There's is one more interesting tutorial here: http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/programming-apple-push-notification-services
show here.

Above Link Dead...try this
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Chapters/Introduction.html
There's other solutions like Xtify or Mainline or PushWoosh or more recently Windows Cloud Azur.
Easy APN stay the most relevant solution for those who choice to do it yourself (servers integration).
