Default Not sure if this is possible!

Hello there! first post here, so go easy on me.

For about a year now I've been building up my knowledge base of objective c. It's not the first programming language I've learned but I am definitely most comfortable in it now. I know you think I'm crazy for not knowing c++ or c much, but i started with java, and actionscript so i picked up objective c pretty well without knowing c++ or c very well.

That's my background, I just wanted to get it out there because I know how quickly these posts turn into some guy saying "GO LEARN MACHINE LANGUAGE BEFORE YOU DO OBJECTIVE C GEEEZ"

After releasing a few apps already and getting more and more serious with this, I've finally run into road blocks that google cannot solve anymore.

My next endeavor involves a few things which i am not sure can even be done.

(These are iPad applications)

1- Importing large amounts of photos (100's even) with as little taps as possible. IE importing an entire album

2- Importing large amounts of photos directly from a camera

3- Customizing and adding notes into the images metadata.

Now after some research i found some people who have written custom API's to deal with metadata, so i just need to research that a bit more. I can't seem to find anything about importing large amounts of photos unfortunately. I've seen other apps that let you bring in multiple photos by selecting each photo individually, but i do not want the user to click 100 times. Also i'm aware of itunes syncing which would be a kind of last resort backup plan.

thanks for taking the time out to read this.

1. Its possible, best to do is to download from a server

2. Im not sure but probably not, your duplicating a feature that is already done by apple

3. It is possible, but you can only view those notes within your app not in the photos app, if your editing the picture itself then yes, you can then export it to the photos app

thanks for getting back to me! Yeah the the best way to import all the photos would be through a server of some sort, but where this app would be most useful is if a user can import an entire album from their camera roll without even touching a computer.

From seeing another app...different field, Guitar...I am sure it can be done. But you may need to have a dongle made to enable the data load.

There is a new Guitar Processing App....that goes for $19.99...the name escapes me, but it was featured a month or so ago. And it connects your guitar to your iphone/ipod...and lets you process the sound. It uses a dongle I think to connect it to the device.

I would assume if you don't need a dongle, you could use an adaptor...USB of some kind.
