Dear Erica,

I’ve been follwing you iPhone work nearly from day 1.

For Implementing a GUI Application with autostart I tried to use your “launch” command in F 3.0 but unfortunatly didn’t succed.

Error is:

iScope-3-A:~ root# launch launch -com.apple.Calculator.Weather
2009-08-24 18:30:40.884 launch[73:903] *** Assertion failure in -[UIApplication init], /SourceCache/UIKit/UIKit-963.10/UIApplication.m:398
2009-08-24 18:30:40.902 launch[73:903] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception ‘NSInternalInconsistencyException’, reason: ‘There can only be one UIApplication instance.’

)
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘NSException’

We would be thankfull for any help.

Best regards from Berlin,

Erica,

Thanks so much for the hard work you put into all of this.

I am using the version of findme found in the latest version of Erica Utilities, and I can’t figure out if there are any switches for the command, and, if so, how to use them. Specifically, I am trying to setup a lojack script using findme, and publishing current location to twitter, but the twitter post ends up being XML formatted. is there any way to get this data in a different format?

I discover your utilites today.
Very powerfull.

I was looking for a way to switch on and off the airplane mode by the command line. I didn’t find that on the sb command-line. Maybe, I didn’t undestrand everything ?

Thanks a lot.

I can’t get launch to work from within a perl script, when that script is called as a spring/winterboard application.

Sample script:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
system “/usr/bin/launch”, “com.apple.mobilecal”;
#EOF

Run this from the command line: Works great

But when I stuff this in /Applications/SomeApplication/someapp.pl with matching Info.plist, an icon.png and a Default.png for splash (respringing with BossPrefs), the script runs, but launch is not able to launch a new app when running as an app itself. exit code from launch is 0 anyway, so it thinks that it succeeded itself, I guess.

Any hints on getting launch to work from a script running as an app?

So now they need an update for 2.2? Because AppFlow stopped loading.

Hi there. I am just finishing a nice “lojack” script for FW 2.1 runs well. Now I would like to copy the full adressbook into an email. Could you enhande “abquery” to show ALL adressbook entries?

Sorry about the typo “bade iPod”. It should read “badge iPod”.

First of all, thank you for your apps and utilities.

I’m asking about the badge utility. May I know how do I bade the iPod app? No matter how I try (bade iPod, badge MobileMusicPlayer etc), it simply won’t badge it.

Thanks.
