IPhone Documents directory and UIFileSharingEnabled, hiding certain documents?

The answer given by FrenchKiss Dev is not correct. The user will still be able to see the ". Data" directory in iTunes and save that locally with all the files inside it.

You should store any files you don't want to share to Library/Preferences.

2 This is incorrect. The . Data is hidden from iTunes and putting things in Library/Preferences is a bad idea per the development documentation – Marcus S.

Zarra Jul 3 '10 at 15:13 Thank you M.Zarra. I hadn't seen this. My answer is correct of course.

I don't know which way is the best practice though. – FKDev Jul 5 '10 at 12:32 4 It's unfortunate that I've been ranked down. My answer is correct.

I have an app in the app store that I needed to enable iTunes sharing and I did extensive testing on it. I can, in fact see the directory my app created. I can click on that directory and download it.

The directory is in no way hidden. This is on a Windows machine and with system files/hidden files set to visible. My understanding is that this does not work in iTunes on OSX, but it certainly does in Windows.

– Answerbot Jul 7 '10 at 6:37 4 I think this answer is quite correct. Maybe best choice is to create ones own folder under /Library instead of using /Library/Preferences. Please see also this official Q&A of Apple: developer.apple.Com/iphone/library/qa/qa2010/qa1699.

Html – Holtwick Aug 24 '10 at 15:23 1 Holtwick's suggestion is spot on, read the docs at the link. Long story short (according to Apple), create a /Library/MyAppsPrivateDirectory and store your stuff in there. – Allen Ding Feb 17 at 8:06.

In the documents directory, create a subdirectory which name starts with a dot. For example: .data.

This is just the straight unix files that start with a '. ' are hidden? So this will still get backed up, i.e.

The entire contents of the documents directory gets backed up? – Aran Mulholland May 31 '10 at 23:03 1 Having tested this on a device, the standard unix hidden dir works fine and is backed up. – Marcus S.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
