Fetching information from a facebook WebCal in iOS5 - objective-c

I'm building my first app which should fetch some events from a Facebook CalDAV. But I can't seem to define the source with EventKit. Am I reading the documentation wrong and is it only possible to get information from the iPhones calendar?
The source I'm trying to reach is:
webcal://www.facebook.com/ical/u.php?uid=614013015&key=AQCJQo9Dh5NqgP1Z
Does it provide a problem that it is a webcal and not an official CalDAV standard?
Thanks in advance

I've looked it through and as I see it, EventKit doesn't give the option of connecting to a calendar outside iOS' own.

Can firebase authentication work with docusaurus?

I want to use authentication service given by Firebase in my static website created by Docusaurus. is this possible ?
Thank you in advance
I want to help you with this problem since I got the same one. However, my previous answer was deleted because I attached my detailed blog on this matter only. I will try to give a better one this time so that the answer will reach you and others.
Can you use authentication for your Docusaurus, yes, you can. There is no official documentation on this, but the key point is that you swizzle the Root component, not allowed to render the content if no authentication state is provided via Firebase Auth since it is just ReactJS.
I wrote a detailed tutorial on this with full source code: https://medium.com/#thomasdevshare/docusaurus-authentication-with-firebase-c824da24bc51
Here is the full source code, you can clone and use it: https://github.com/thomasdevshare/docusaurus-auth-firebase
Just hope that my answer will get delivered this time.

Connecting to Facebook with VB.net

I'm wondering if there is a way to connect to Facebook using VB.net? By connect I mean I would be able to access friend list, notifications, messages etc.
So far I have managed to validate the log in - i.e. it tells you if a user exists with the specified details. But now I'm stuck with how to view the accounts information.
Thanks
You will have to get an AppKey, this is required. Another thing is you have to install the sdk from Facebook. After this has been done, take a look at this project to get going, its too broad to post here...

How to fix Feature not enabled problems

I currently have an issue that whenever I connect my MapBox map to the Directions API, an error is returned which says '{"message":"Feature not enabled"}'.
I have looked around and have not found anywhere where I can enable this feature, and would like to know if there is a way that you can do it.
Thanks in Advance,

First line:
This API is a preview and may be changed or removed at any time. Contact us to get testing access to this API.

How to set wallpaper for lock screen in iPhone or iPad

I have gone through many of similar post that I have asked here. I have understood that there is no public API for doing this in iOS devices and if we use the private API for this purpose, apple will not accept it too. But I have found an application in itunes which does the same feature.
Here is the link :
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sticky-notes-hd-with-bump/id364874025?mt=8
If apple do not support this, how this application is in Appstore. Then they may have did this in some other way. So I hope this feature can be implemented somehow.
Does anybody have any idea regarding this.
Thanks in advance
Thats impossible to do.
Have you bought the app you referenced to? Did you see it?
The app that you reference generates a picture that you -- by hand -- need to set as lockscreen/wallpaper.
One thing that goes in that direction is the MPNowPlayingInfoCenter; it allows you to set what's being shown in the "now playing" info on the lock screen, but that's about how far you will get.

How to interact with the Panoramio API using services?

I'm writing a location base client and would love to integrate Panoramio with my client, now the problem is that I can't find a way to interact with the Panoramio using a ~REST-like service.
I know they do have an API but it's mostly for embedding the content into a website and not as to interact thru me code (at least from documentation)
Have any of you hacked a way thru this?
I am writing the clients natively for android and iphone in case you are wondering.
cheers,
G.
well it seems like the answer came a bit fast... and although this is easily accessible thru their website it is discussed in their forum and even google has posted about it in their geo developer blog
a sample request to get images from a bounding box will go along the lines of the following example:
http://www.panoramio.com/map/get_panoramas.php?order=popularity&set=public&from=0&to=10&minx=-124.29382324218749&miny=36.089060460282006&maxx=-119.8773193359375&maxy=38.724090458956965&callback=MyCallback
Update: I have found also the official page to their data api.
hope it helps!
