Beginning iPad Application Development will help jumpstart your iPad development. It covers topics progressively so you learn without being overwhelmed by details. It adopts the philosophy that the best way to learn is by doing, hence the numerous Try It Out sections, which first show you how to build something and then explain how things work. To truly benefit from this book, you should have some background in programming and at least be familiar with object–oriented programming concepts. Coverage includes:
- getting started with Xcode and Interface Builder to build a Hello World application
- fundamental concepts of iPad programming: outlets and actions
- UI widgets known as views that make up the iPad application user interface
- view controllers available in the iPhone SDK and different types of iPad applications – View–based, Window–based, Split View–based, and Tab Bar applications
- how to deal with the iPad s virtual keyboard, hide the keyboard on demand, and ensure views are not blocked by the keyboard when it is displayed
- reorient the application′s UI when the device is rotated or force an application to display in a certain orientation
- using the Table view is to display rows of data and implementing search capabilities in Table view
- using application settings to persist application preferences
- persisting application data by saving the data to files in the application′s sandbox directory
- using the embedded SQLite3 database library to store data
- implementing animations
- using gesture recognizers in the iPhone SDK to interpret user′s input gestures
- access the iPad accelerometer and detecting device shakes
- communicating with Web services and their data
- publishing services on the network using Bonjour
- implementing applications that use push notifications
- building location–based services applications, obtaining geographical locations data, displaying a map
- an overview of the Objective–C language

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GoldBooks, Comfort, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
