Due to some security constraints I would like to implement a check to see the app was really downloaded from Nokia Store or not. If the app was not downloaded from Nokia Store the app will not run.
Is this possible? How can this be done?
Thanks
As far as I know unfortunately there are no mechanism for that.

I am new to iOS app and I would really appreciate your help.
I want to implement Notifications/Alarms that will run foreground and/or background for my iOS App.
I want to set multiple alarms and being appeared let's say every day.
I couldn't be able to find a proper solution, but I found the following:

Do you think that that will work in my case? Any comments will be helpful.
How can I avoid being rejecting from the Apple store?
Thanks
I'm using monotouch to develop an application and part of it requires me to be able to switch off the likes of the internet and texting. I've searched through the documents and can't seem to find how to do it without the user being asked (that part is important).
I can do it simply enough with Android, but not with iOS.
Is there a way?
No. Apple does not expose APIs to do this without prompting the user.
I had a bunch of apps that worked great in iOS 4. None of them work in iOS 5 (thanks Apple). I haven't been developing recently, and I don't have the time or knowledge to make my apps compatible with iOS 5. My question is, is there a way to make the apps available only to people running iOS 4? or do I have to just remove them from the app store? I don't want people to download my apps and have them not work. Thanks.
I believe you can set such restriction for people who are downloading your app from a computer (the app won't show up in iTunes). However, if the user is viewing the store through their iDevice, I think they can find your app and download it nonetheless.
It should suffice to simply put in the description that the app won't work with iOS 5.
Or, perhaps you should take a little look into why is your app not working. Normally the problem is not so big.
Over the last couple months I've been developing an app with the free version of MonoTouch.
Now (at the time of this question) it seems Novell killed it, and now that my app is ready, not really sure where to go. If I understand correctly, to deploy to device or package for app store, I need to get a license; do I buy one from Novell, or what? Should I just find a MonoTouch contractor that can take care of that part for me for now?
Hoping to get some wisdom from some seasoned MonoTouch folks on this one...
The Novell Store is still up, and as recently as this weekend someone reported that the activation server is still working.
However, if you don't want to risk spending money on a license right now (and I don't blame you) your best bet is to get someone with an active MT license to help you.
in order to submit an application to the appstore, you need to have an apple developer account (developer.apple.com), generate a .ipa file and submit it through your mac's application Loader/iTunes connect. More info here
(http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/Xcode/Conceptual/iphone_development/145-Distributing_Applications/distributing_applications.html)
However, i am not sure but i think that in order to properly generate the .ipa file you need a MonoTouch license..
Over the weekend Novell/Attachmate took down the Monotouch website database. This has killed the website. I don't think it will be back.
In the short term your best bet is to find another MonoTouch user and see if they will put your application up.
Now the database is down, I'm guessing the forums have gone. Someone setup a google group before this happened hopefully this will get some traction. http://groups.google.com/group/monotouch?hl=en-GB
Xamarin have announce that they shall be launching MonoTouch and MonoDroid compatible products in the next 3 months.

While I'm no expert on iOS development, I have read through the API docs on Apple's developer site and I can't find anything on this. Before I presume that it's impossible let me ask here: Can I somehow monitor application launches on a standard iOS device? By "standard" I mean not jailbroken and using only public iOS v4 APIs. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.
No, there's no access to system-level stuff like that at all. The somewhat-small sandbox makes certain types of apps impossible, but does provide a lot of protection for the user.
