Dear Friends,

Iam creating an elearning app with the Airfor IOS. I want to fetch the UDID in order to restrict the user to use only -  single login for single IPAD. Iam in to that R&D. Please help me to do this. I can use like generate a random no and store in applicationstorage directory but when we uninstall the app the no will go. again they will get new no when reinstall.

I have used token id of the app. Here when we uninstall and reinstall the app I will get new token ID so it is not unique. I want to fetch an unique id for the device. Pls help me

Thanks in advance,

Thanks and Regards,

Syed Abdul Rahim

if you have itunes on a computer, open itunes and attach your ipad to your computer. http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/iphone/how-find-out-your-iphone-or-ipad-udid-3530239/

That wasn't the question. He wants at runtime to know that the app is on a particular device, even after the user has deleted the app and reinstalled it.

I think that Apple protect that information. It would be simpler to generate a key, save that as a sharedobject, and hope that the user only does app updates and doesn't delete the app first.
