uilocalnotification

I'm having some really irritating problems with UILocalNotification . While finishing up an app that I've nearly completed, I noticed that I couldn't get local notifications to work, no matter what I tried. So instead of wasting time, I decided to go back to basics and see if I could get them working at all. I created a new XCode view-based application, and replaced -viewDidLoad with this: - (void)viewDidLoad { UILocalNotification * theNotification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init]; theNotification.alertBody = @"Alert text"; theNotification.alertAction = @"Ok"; theNotification.fireDate =

Can anyone please tell me how to get a UILocalNotification while my app is in the background. I am posting my code here. Thanks in advance. UILocalNotification *localNotif = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init]; if (localNotif == nil) return; localNotif.fireDate =[startDate addTimeInterval:60]; NSLog(@"%@",localNotif.fireDate); localNotif.timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone]; localNotif.alertAction = @"View"; localNotif.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName; NSString *notifStr=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Hey looks like you're meeting up with %@, why don't you let your other friends

I am making an iPhone application in which I have implemented the concept of local notification to alert the user for taking medicine. But in iOS we can't schedule more than 64 notifications at a time. But I have a number of date-time entries in the database. How could I schedule more than 64 notifications? I've created app with local notifications and in this case user was notified every 20/40/60 minutes in given time interval (eg. 8:00-20:00). The solution was to generate up to 64 notification through whole day and set repeatInterval of UILocalNotification to NSCalendarUnitDay. Of course if

From the docs: The date specified in fireDate is interpreted according to the value of this property. If you specify nil (the default), the fire date is interpreted as an absolute GMT time, which is suitable for cases such as countdown timers. If you assign a valid NSTimeZone object to this property, the fire date is interpreted as a wall-clock time that is automatically adjusted when there are changes in time zones; an example suitable for this case is an an alarm clock. Suppose I schedule an local notification for (in absolute time) noon tomorrow GMT. I schedule this in Seattle at 1PM

I have to create an alarm clock app for the iPhone in which user can set alarm time and sound. In doing so, I have used UILocalNotification to set off the alarm. Now, in UILocalNotification, first we get Notification Alert with option "Close" and "View". If the user taps on "View", then my delegate receives the application:didReceiveLocalNotification: message and the alarm sound plays. But in the system-native alarm app, we don't see a notification alert; it just directly plays the alarm sound. How can I have my app use this behavior? I agree with David. iOS built-in alarm app gets a special
