Re: ITunes U course on iPhone Application Programming [was Re: iphone app creation}
Hello; Thanks for that. When i signed up at the developers page, they have a link to a introductory video, but half the time it locks up. I listened to the first two parts before that happened. I've tried going to it again with no luck. I'll try this link. I'm not sure i want to do it either, but i have some friends who want me to at least try. I did write the accessiblity desk to see what if anything they could tell me about the sdk being accessible with voiceover or not. The editing is done on the apple computer with an emulater to test your work, or obviously i wouldn't even try.

Re: ITunes U course on iPhone Application Programming [was Re: iphone app creation}
A quick addition: the iTunes Store pages for iTunes U downloadable podcasts and PDF files under iTunes 9 still have the structure that podcasts had in iTunes 8, so there is a list view table of podcast entries and PDF files that is like the songs table lists in your our library -- they're not in the HTML area. That's why you need to select tabs for the PDF files or for the video files when in the HTML area for the Stanford University page on iPhone Application Programming. The tab you select determines whether video files of each class or PDF files of the slides that were shown appear in the listed entries when you stop interacting with the HTML area and VO- Down Arrow to the listed items. As always, you can use the context menu (VO-Shift-M) to select the option to download.
