Phonegap desktop not is launching properly. It is stuck and keeps loading. I am using version 0.4.5.

I had the same issue, just now! I resolved it in this way.
Install the desktop app using the win32 binary (0.4.5 beta)
Downloaded the Node.js version 6 x86 zip (https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v6.x/node-v6.17.1-win-x86.zip)
In the zip file, go to node_modules folder, extract the NPM folder, and zip the NPM folder into NPM.zip
Navigate to the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\PhoneGap\PhoneGap Desktop\resources\app.asar.unpacked\bin' folder, and replaced NPM.zip with the one I created.
Opened cmd, navigated to the same folder, and ran postInstall.bat
This is what it looks like, it has errors. But the end of it says Download complete!
CMD screenshot:
I then run the Phonegap Desktop and it works. No more stuck in loading screen.

I faced the same issue and I solved by installed the older version like 0.3.1 and it runs without any issue. It will populate to update v0.4.5 but don't update it will produce same issue.
Download the older version from this link here.
This is the version I tried 0.3.1.
After install the older version, it will appear like this.
If you find any working solution for v0.4.5 please share your solution here.

Apparently Adobe has stopped supporting Phonegap, and seemingly starting to pull the plug on the entire thing.
Per The Adobe forum
PhoneGap Build is in maintenance mode, no further active work is being done by Adobe.
There may be ways to get it working, but it's questionable, at what point will the entire Build platform be taken down? Probably best to turn away from Phonegap entirely and rely on the Cordova CLI.

We had understood, MSIX is an interesting, modern alternative to ClickOnce.
Using with GUI runs smoothly. And we want also to use it with Powershell/CMD scripts. (We only want the msix package, no store upload.)
Here is our problem. I have seen the doc from MS (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/msix/package/manual-packaging-root) but it is very partial. I have no special with to do, I only want to make the standard export by script instead of GUI.
Please, can anybody give me a better instruction/tutorial to easy create an msix-Package by command line?
Here the steps, I found - and partial questions:
Create Manifest.xml - Good documentation of the content, but where to save it? I use the folder with the *.sln
Generate a Package Resource Index - I find the MakePRI.exe, but hot to use?
Create the package with MakeAppx - who and where to use? Even in standard case I need a mapping.txt. Which files must it contain? All from Manifest? Where I must place the files - Server online or local at PC? Only pictures for icons? Where I must run it? Must it the place with the *.sln or can it be a subfolder? Where have the binaries of my program to be?
Create an app bundle - What must stand in the mapping file here, when I will an app for x86 and x64?
Sign msix - sounds easy - give msix-file and signature as parameter and run
You see, I am very confused. With GUI - MSIX creation is easy. But how to automate it? Can someone help me?
It seems to me that you are on the wrong track here, basically, you are trying to reinvent the wheel and create your own tool that builds MSIX packages.
This doesn't sound very effective to me. We (at Advanced Installer) and other vendors, Microsoft including, have been working for years to build reliable MSIX packaging tools, this is not a 1-month project task that you can start from scratch, without any prior domain knowledge.
What I suspect you need is actually a way to build from the command line a project that you created with Visual Studio, Advanced Installer, InstallShield, or any other tool that can build MSIX packages.
So basically, you need to use the GUI to initially build the project that will generate your MSIX and you can then go on to use the options below to build an MSIX from that project using the command line.
If I am wrong, and you actually need a way to build an MSIX package from scratch from the command line, please update the question with more details so the community can better understand what you are trying to accomplish in order to provide you with useful guidance.
TLDR solution:
So, the first step is for you to build your MSIX project using your tool of preference. From your question, it seems you are only using VS, so you need to use the Windows Application Packaging Project.
Now that you got the .SLN which contains your source code for the application along with your MSIX project, all you need to do is to trigger a build from the command line, using msbuild.
Note. If you are using a third-party tool to build your MSIX, then search for it's documentation, all professional tools have a command-line interface. Here is for example how you can build a project from using Advanced Installer's CLI.

How to get GenieACS running?

I am trying to install and work with GenieACS (an openSource auto configuration server). I followed this instructions and was able to successfully install it. I need to bring that tool now to life and make the first connection with a CPE. Is there someone who is already working with GenieACS and can tell me which files should i modify (where/how) in order to get GenieACS running?
This question is too broad to be answered here. Even the guide you followed is outdated(!)
I wrote a guide (It's going to be outdated in some months, I'm currently developing the new one for Debian 8) but you can still use it.
The working guide is here: https://github.com/zaidka/genieacs/wiki/GenieACS-v1.1.x-installation-in-Ubuntu-14.04-Server

I've recently been given a project at work that I need OSX to work on. I was given a brand new mac mini for the project but it's brand new and doesn't have xcode. Downloading at work is super slow and would take days but at home I have much better speeds but I don't have a mac. How can I download the .dmg file using my Windows machine so that I can take it to work and put it on my computer there?
You can download the Xcode install dmg (and additional tools like the recommended "Command Line Tools" from the Apple Developer Downloads page.
Just sign in with your developer Apple ID when it prompts you (If you don't have one, make a free one by clicking create on the above site. Try using the same Apple ID as the one you use on your new Mac) and find and download the latest Xcode (Xcode 7.2 as of writing) in the download list:
I'd try just downloading the .dmg archive file from Apple (https://developer.apple.com/xcode/download/) and saving to a USB drive that is formatted/readable from both platforms.

In an earlier version of delphi (2007/2009) I found a way to debug the application without recompiling.
But I can't find it in XE5:(
I often find my self in need of restart debugging to debug a condition that only appears on application load.
So avoiding an unnecessary compile would be a great time saver.
Best regards
Ove B-)
I am not sure if this is what you need, but you can debug an application without having delphi trying to recompile it by following these steps:
launch the application outside of the debugger (with "run without debugging" or by executing it from windows)
attach the debugger to the already running instance you just created by using the delphi menu item "Run->Attach to process..."
Edit: a little error i made: you actually have to launch your program from windows: using the "Run without debugging" option from the IDE will make delphi try to recompile the project.

Im sure I've used an apple program for creating icons before, but cant for the life of me remember the name? I also think that it is not included in the latest Xcode in ML. If so Can you suggest a good free app to use for icon creation?
You are probably looking for the Icon Composer tool that used to be bundled as part of Xcode. When Xcode moved to the App Store a number of utilities and tools were removed from the download bundle.
However, these tools are still available for download.
In Xcode, open the menu: Xcode -> Open Developer Tools -> More Developer Tools. This will take you to the Apple Developer website where you can download a number of packages.
Xcode 8
For Xcode 8, you will find Icon Composer (along with a number of other tools) in the Additional Tools for Xcode package.
Prior to Xcode 8
Prior to Xcode 8 Icon Composer is included in the Graphics Tools for Xcode package.

GIMP provides all you need, maybe more than that!! Good luck :)
