Apple vs Adobe and Jailbreaking your Iphone,iTouch or iPad

It seems the whole Adobe vs Apple saga is still on-going. Ive been reading about it and its fascinating to read. Each side has there own point of view and its hard to understand why Apple are being so restrictive.

Having heard a few months ago that Adobe Flash CS5 would allow you to export your flash application as an IPhone App and then having apple give a big two-finger salute to Adobe which is devasting for anyone on windows hoping to make an iphone app or even learn. This was the only way for a windows user to make an IPhone app and since then apple and steve jobs have been trying to steady the flow of angry developers and users.

IPhone and ITouch App Development

Iphone and the ITouch are really coming out with great idea via the “Apps” available on the ITunes store. As soon as i got my iTouch i wonder hwo could i get making some Apps and unfortunely learned its not as easy i had hoped. Bascially it seems you need a Mac, ive asked afew people about this and this seems to be the case but there does seem to be hope.

I havent tried to get started as it seem way too complecated and messy. Ive heard that the next Version of Flash will have tools for Iphone development lets bloody hope so.

Heres a few sites ive found that try to help you get started;

I Tunes 9.0.3: New I-Tunes Update Screwed my Music Library?

I loaded up I-Tunes and updated it to  the lastet version (9.03) and when it updated everything, my music library was gone all the playlists i made as well. What the hell kinda shit is this? I detest I-Tunes its far too restrictive and screws the consumer when you buy music.

How the hell do i get my library back, now ill probably have to wipe my I-Pod and start again thanks a fucking lot apple.

EDIT:

Luckily i backed up my PC yesterday with “Symantic Backup Exec System Recovery 2010” which is very useful for keeping a backup of your PC. So i had to copy the old I-Tunes Library File from a few days ago over and its all working now.
