[Q] Iphone functionality on RT - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,
I am new to posting on the forums but have kept up-to-date regarding developments.
I was wondering, as it seems unlikely iTunes will ever be released / ported to the Windows RT system, does anyone know or have any methods to sync music between RT and the iphone? I don't mind it not being iTunes and was thinking there must be a round-a-bout way to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Try MediaMonkey, I am not sure if it works on RT but it do have a app there. Give it a try!
^_^ Feel free to press thanks button.

Thanks for the reply, is anyone able to confirm that the Windows RT version of the Media Monkey app actually offers the ability to sync with the iphone device. From what I've researched it normally requires the apple device drivers to be installed which seems unavailable on Windows RT?
Thanks

Take a look

[REQ]Looking for developers, Spotify for mobile!

Hello. I'm sure the majority of this site know what Spotify is. And I've discovered some great stuff, that maybe could be ported to a WinMo device.
I'm really, really bad at coding, so I don't know if this is possible, but hey, why not, it's worth a try, right?
So, to the subject. Some Swedish hackers have hacked spotify and made a program to connect to their servers and stream music. It's all opensource, altough no GUI is available.
So my request is, port this program to a WinMo device, and make a nice graphical interface!
Here is the link to the program.

Come on people, someone? Make the code mobilefriendly and a nice GUI, somebody/a group must be able to do it?
Nobody? would love spotify in the mobile!
Still nobody that can look in to it?

despotify can't be ported to windows mobile. even though its possible, winmo doesnt have a native python runtime, the app would be huge, and to slow to actually be usable.
a new app would have to be programmed in C/C++ or C#
i would love this app two im a big spotify fan and use it alot
+1, seriously now spotify exists for Android and Iphone!
I have been working on a Windows Mobile Spotify client called mySpot.
The first alpha version is complete and I have uploaded it to the forum today.

i read on the blog that they are coding a java version. cant we just throw the java **** on your phones and run it in java?
I've ported despotify/jotify to C# (compact framework), and will release a working Windows Mobile client whenever I manage to build a nice GUI.
Maybe, some day, I will combine it with my old Grooveshark player, and create a all-in-one music app.
Stay tuned
Excellent news, nilezon, thanks. I'll look forward to this

[Q] Emulating Windows Mobile 6.x on Android

Hey Guys,
1) sorry if this has come up before, search-fu is weak and nothign relevant seems to come up with the "Similar threads" thing.
2) My provider has all but forced me off Windows Mobile, which is fine, since with sideloading being such a hard task on WM7, and that I would have to pay alot to get a WM7 handset and go up monthly fees too, i'm not too fussed.
So i've taken the plunge and gone for an Android phone, trouble is I have a few apps on my old windows mobile device I would love to run on Android... number 1 priority being TomTom Navigator, which yes, I could repay for, but I don't see why I should have to.
So, is there any software in the works that will let me run Windows Mobile based apps on an Android phone?
many thanks
Sorry for bringing an old topic back into the daylight, but I have the same thought. I definately need some apps of WM running on Android when I'll buy my new phone, so this kind of emulator would be a major reason to switch from my outdated Touch Pro. Couldn't something like Haret be created, just to run Windows Mobile, not Android?
There is no, for now
thanks for clearing that out, that's a pitty. But how about the future? Is it at least theorically possible to create something to have this kind of dual boot? Would Android community and developers be interesting in this?
Yeah I wish that was possible, but no.

[Q] WP7 as Computer Webcam

Looking for an app that will let me use my HD7 as a Webcam for my Computer.
I've have looked and can't find information on this anywhere
Is this possible?
If this app is already out there could someone direct it to me!
Thanks in Advance
I guess the answer is a sad no :-(
I do agree as well. WP7 lacks lots of features that were supported in Windows Mobile. I'm quite sure that this app will come soon.
There is a WP7 called "PocketCam" that can do this. Search it within Zune.

[Q] Is possible to register at Microsoft App Hub without having a Windows Phone?

My friend hasn't got a Windows Phone 7 but he'd like to publish Windows Phone applications in Microsoft App Hub. If he has a Windows Live ID, can he do it? (I mean without having a Windows Phone)
Hi
If he hasn't got a Windows Phone, how and why da hell he makes WP7 Apps?!
Answering your question, yes, he can...
Cheers!
yes, he can!
he has to pay for the appHub subscription and he can publish applications.
he can also publish beta and set avilability for some users only

If your friends is an etudiant, maybe he can register on Dreamspark and have a developer account for free in apphub ..
Thanks to all for the answers!
Unless his applications are very basic, I wouldn't recommend releasing them without testing on a device. The emulator is pretty good and all, but it does have basically unlimited CPU/GPU power and much faster read/write speed when compared to an actual device.
i think you cant
windows phone application is only for windows phone

[Q] Windows Mobile Beginner from where to start

Hello,
I'd like to start programming Windows. I've heard that people submitting apps before February will obtain Windows Mobile. Is it true? Which framework should I use for?
Thank in advance
first, i think you're talking about Windows Phone, not Windows mobile.
to develop for this platform you have to download the sdk, including an emulator from this website:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=27570
to publish applications on marketplace (and to unlock phones) you have to subscribe an AppHub contract (paid, 99$/€/year)
http://create.msdn.com/en-US/
if you want only to unlock a phone (without the marketplace developer access) you can read various posts on this forum
obtaining a developer phone is not that simple,but it depends which country you'r from
Yeah Windows Mobile was it, you could do more with it but it's in the past, Welcome to Windows Phone where MS tells you what you want and need instead. LOL. I have the Trophy and it is great but it will never be as good as my Touch Pro 2.

I agree, but only oh half...
90% of users are dummies. they need easy and closed operating systems.
that's the reason why ios and wp are so closed up.
WindowsMobile was great.. but such a mess!! it was used only from people that needed it.. if they want to sell... they have to realize something easy and reliable..
android takes a slightly different path, it is closed if you don't want to unlock it..
