Is it possible to load a separate application into the iphone? - iphone

I am having a iphone and i have created an application using Xcode. Now i want to move this application into my iphone for my use. How can it be done?
I tried to copy my application to the iphone Applications folder using the phone view software, but i'm not able to open my application in the iphone. It shows the error
"Your Myapp.app cannot be open"
Is there any other way to install my application into the iphone? Please guide me regarding this.
Thanks

You'll need to register as an iPhone developer to get the correct keys for signing and loading an application onto an iPhone. If you are writing an application that you plan to sell via the AppStore then this is $99 to register, if it's for internal use only then $199.

First did you use the real SDK or the simulator?
The simulator SDK only hides some OS X calls that don't exist on iPhone, but is otherwise the normal OS X SDK. So first make sure you link against the (ARM) iPhone SDK.
Then comes the licensing bit. Afaik in a non jailbroken iPhone you can only load signed apps (via the AppStore, or using a license obtained from Apple to sign your own)

Xcode will automatically install and run an application on your iphone if you use the correct project setting.
Project -> Set Active SDK -> iPhone Device 3.0
Note that you will need a provisioning key before this becomes possible.
visit http://developer.apple.com/iphone to view some easy-to-understand tutorials on how to get one of these.
I assume you have signed up as an iPhone developer on that website (costs $99).

test iPhone app without an iPhone

I've been sent an iPhone app package (.zip file) that I would like to test. The app is not yet available in the app store and I don't own an iPhone. What are my options for testing this app? I can probably get my hands on a Mac (with some difficulty), but ideally I'm looking for a way of running the app under windows/Linux.
I was hoping to find a website that would allow me to upload the package, and I could then test the app in a browser, but haven't found anything like this so far.
You try what you want, the app code will not run on any other platform then an iOS device.
The best option is the get the source code so you can run the app on a Mac with Xcode and the iOS simulator.
But this is no real replacement for device testing.
Also be aware that iOS ad-hoc app arre linked to device and can there not be installed on device which are not in the profile with which the app is build. The devices are identified by there UDID.
The app you linked is indeed an ARM only binnary and can only be installed on devices that are in the profile used to build the app.
Festivals.ie: Mach-O executable arm
I also took a look at the app bundle and it seems that the app is native, there for you can not simply extract any thing an present it as a webpage. There is no known app to HTML tool available.
In order to test an iOS app the developer of the app must add your UDID to his Member Center under devices. Without that limit everyone could share apps around the globe with no real use for the appstore.
There's no way for you to test it, even if you'll get a Mac and an iPhone.
If not an iPhone, you can test it on an iPad or an IOS simulator... NO other way possible at all...

How can I test Xcode Project on iPhone?

I have developed a view based project in Xcode. It is successfully running in iPhone Simulator. But I want to test this project on real iPhone device to check the behavior of application.
Is there any way I can test my application on iPhone device without buying Apple Developer's License?
Thanks in advance.
No, there is not. You pay the $99, and you get the ability to load software onto (a few, I believe) real iPhone/iPods. See http://developer.apple.com/programs/iphone/develop.html#compare for details.
No, Dear you can't install any app onto the iphone without their(Apple) permission. YOu have to buy the Apple's Developer License. That's the bad news for you..
I would say you can borrow devices to test your app project developed using Xcode, it is also easy and simple you can also link as many devices to test your app. I did this for one of my game app.

How can I get a debug version of my iPhone app onto my iPhone?

I'm trying to get just ONE copy of my application on my real iPhone to test it. How can I do this without going through the appstore?
First, go to the program portal. From here, you should read through the program portal user guide and you can also launch the assistant to help you through the steps of configuring your project and workstation.
Assuming you have all your certs in order all you have to do is add the said phone to your list of development iPhones on the developer portal. Once you do that you will need to generate the provision file and assign it to the iPhone in the xcode organizer. For more information just reference the iPhone development documentation Apple provides on deploying your games onto development iPhones.

iPhone application installation

i am not a member of iPhone developer, i installed one iPhoneOS 2.2 in my computer, and i developed one application. and i created it as a .ipa file and i installed my iPhone but it is not working.
i am sure i am not a iPhone developer, not register in iPhone developer.
is it that problems.
In order for you to be able to officially install applications on the iPhone that you have developed, you need to be part of the iPhone Developer program which costs $99/year.
Without the certificates and provisioning profiles you get by being part of the program, you cannot officially push software to device or submit your software to Apple to be in the App Store.
You can test the applications within the iPhone Simulator without being part of the program.
Other options all include Jailbreaking the iPhone - which I don't know anything about and cannot help you with.
Yup, you have to register with the iPhone developer program (and pay $99) in order to be able to sign the app and run it on your iPhone.

Installing iPhone App to iPhone

I followed the tutorial from this site:
http://theappleblog.com/2008/08/04/tutorial-build-a-simple-rss-reader-for-iphone/
to make my first iPhone application, now I would like to test this application on my iPhone, what steps do I need to take in order to do this?
You have two choices. You can register to become an iPhone developer like most people do on the iPhone Dev Center, and then deploy directly to the device by selecting "Device - iPhone OS 2.2" in the Overview menu and then hitting Build and Go.
If you're not using any 2.2-specific APIs, you can compile with "Device - iPhone OS 2.1" and then send your app bundle over to a jailbroken iPhone via SFTP, and fake the codesign process using the ldid utility, allowing you to mess around with your apps on the device without registering to become a developer, and without having the headache of installing the open toolchain.
Become a registered iPhone developer. You can't deploy to the phone without doing this first.
