Core Data - NSFetchRequest Issue

Hello, I have a small problem with NSFetchRequest. For some reason unknown to me, NSFetchRequest is not just returning my selected entity. I'll put this in context: I have two entities, one called Report and the other called Location. Report has a one-to-many relationship to Location, and I ha

Code Signing and a Background Tool

Hi there, I'm having a bit of an issue with one of my applications. The way the application works is by spawning a background process at app startup, the executable for which is contained within its Resources directory. While running, however, running `codesign -v x` on the PID of the backg

How to use inline functions

Hi, I realize that my question has no relation to Cocoa, but it's still the place where I can get the fastest answer :) In several places in my app I check if the user has a valid license for my app. I'd like to make cracking the app somewhat more difficult and rather than calling -[license isVal

First of all, you're on the wrong email list for this topic. Search the archives of Apple CDSA for an answer to your question, and re-post over there if you still have trouble. Signing background tools in app packages can be tricky. Here is a comment from a script that I wrote to ship my pro

QuickLook returning small image

I'm requesting a QuickLook preview for an OmniGraffle file.  The size I'm asking for is 500x300.  The image I get back is much smaller, at 122x77, which looks terrible when I display it in my application.  When I use QuickLook to preview the same file in the Finder, it looks great. Why would I

That's not correct. There are Apple approved cables to allow you to do exactly that (there is a serial cable too). But my understanding is the cable itself is not certified by Apple, but the actual usage of the cable. You you can get one of the existing cables and see if you can use it for your p
