XCode: Could Not Support Development

XCode: Could Not Support Development

Today  when I started my work on an iPhone project, my XCode failed to mount my iPhone. The XCode organizer was showing an orange dot next to it instead of the usual green one. Organizer complained “Could Not Support Development”. I tried restarting my XCode, launched iTunes but in vain. iTunes was able to mount my iPhone but XCode simply failed and I was not able to test my app’s on my phone. Read the rest of this entry »

Error Starting Executable

Error Starting Executable

Quite a few times in our iPhone application development cycle we would encounter XCode error “Error Starting Executable – No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected.” even when we know the device is connected to the machine.   This error occurs when the connected device is not configured in the XCode->Organizer. Organizer would fail to mount the device as the version of XCode installed on the developer machine may not support the version of iPhone OS installed on the device.

iPhone 3GS
Jun 9th, 2009 by Anish Kumar

The all new iPhone 3GS has arrived. ‘S’ standing for speed. The internal hardware has undergone lots of changes while still retaining the same good old look externally. The new iPhone 3GS supposedly loads 2.1x faster to launch Messages, 2.4x to load SimCity, 3.6x faster to load an Excel attachment, 2.9x faster to load a large website.

Error: The executable was signed with invalid entitlements
Jun 8th, 2009 by Anish Kumar

Sometimes when we are installing applications to our device through XCode, we might get a error message saying “The executable was signed with invalid entitlements“. This is most likely because the device is not included in the provision file. In tried with a device which i was sure to be included in the provision file and found that it works as expected. This error mostly occurs when we try to install applications on device which are not included in the provision file and is running iPhone OS 3.0. My iPod Touch whose UDID was not in the provision file was throwing this error where as my iPhone whose UDID is included in the provision file worked fine.

If you come across anyother reasons for getting this error message, do let me know.

Rainbow Live XML Editor – Simple CMS for Flash
Jun 2nd, 2009 by Anish Kumar

Rainbow Live Flash CMS

Rainbow Live Flash CMS

Rainbow Live combines the ease of Visual XML editing with the power of a Live Content Management System (CMS), making it easy to design data in whatever structure you want, and then edit it online without having to re-upload new XML files. It’s been designed specifically to provide Flash website developers with an easy way to edit and build XML based sites. Rainbow Live has been developed to answer the needs of Flash developers who use XML as a data source. Checkout a demo and more details at:-
http://www.codeandvisual.com/rainbow

Rainbow Live removes the need to rely on a backend developer to build and maintain a database. Rainbow Live saves time and money as the process of setting up XML structures is familiar to many Flash developers and is made even more intuitive with Rainbow Live’s node-based approach.

Rainbow Live provides you with a User log-in to allow data to be managed by the client long after your involvement is through. Rainbow Live provides the perfect lightweight solution when you don’t need all the bells and whistles (and overhead) of a complete CMS system.
