I like the redesigned version of Evernote and want to install it on my iPod touch 4th gen. with iOS 6.1.3. I opened up its plist file, looked for any parameter that would relate to iOS version restriction but I couldn't find any.
Does anyone know where/how I can edit the source code so I can use it on my iPod touch?
You can't just edit the minimum OS version and expect it to work. There are several problems with that.
The app bundle is read-only, and code-signed. Any changes to it and it won't run. You could probably solve #1 on a jailbroken phone.
App developers tend to use OS features and APIs from the minimum OS version without any runtime testing that those features are available, because the system is supposed to prevent the app from running on earlier OS versions. If you defeat the minimum OS check and the developer uses a class or method that is not in the older OS, the app will crash.

As confirmed by Nokia, the old phone is returning with new hardware.
Will we be able to easily develop anything for the beloved phone?
I can’t speak for the 2G version, but the new Nokia 3310 3G does appear to support some J2ME apps. I was able to install the last release of the Google Maps app, a weather app, and an email app that actually appears on the Opera Mini store. Some jads do say they’re not supported (Note Plus 4) and one had the character sets all messed up (Anyview EBook reader).
EDIT: I confirmed that I was able to side load an (untrusted) app I developed (a very long time ago) using Java 2 Micro Edition SDK.
It was also my first question that came to mind after the unveiling of the new 3310. I was hoping for a nostalgic throwback to mobile java apps.
However, it seems like the OS (s30+) doesn't support J2ME, so definitely no third-party java apps. I guess there might be a slim chance they'd add some kind of app store by the time they release the new 3310, in which case you could develop apps in MRE SDK (maui runtime environment). If I'm not mistaken MRE is in C.

I have created an application that works on Mac Os X that displays an HTML5 program in JQuery Mobile that I programmed using Fluid. I would like to program another version of this application that works on iPhone and, if possible, other iOS devices. I am trying to download Xcode, but the file is so large that my browser first says that it is going to take 14 days, then it just says "Cancled." And yes, I have tryed it with a stronger WiFi conection, the same thing happened. I heard that Apple start-up discs have Xcode on them, but I can't find any of them. Is there a substitution for Xcode that you can use to program iOS devices?
There is no substitute. Have you tried downloading it via the App Store?

I would like to start developing an application for iPad Air. For this do I really need another Apple product, like iMac on Mac Book?
SK
Legally speaking yes, the only way how to compile iOS app is Xcode and the only environment it runs on is OS X.
I heard it's possible to run virtualized OS X on Windows (like in VMware), but it's against Apple's EULA - it's allowed to run OS X on Apple HW only.
you need to run OSX
officially only a mac can run OSX: so yes
unofficially: a pc can be made to run OSX: so it CAN be done

I've got an iPad that's got some important data stuck inside one of the apps, with no way to get it off (basically, it has a syncing problem with an external server). It's a third party app from the app store. I'd like to manually access the app's data, in the hope that I can extract it manually. How do I go about this using iTunes/XCode?
Install iExplorer, plug the iPad into your Mac and then use iExplorer to retrieve the data files.
Update: When I wrote this answer in 2013, this above was the case. However, Apple changed the security model in iOS 8.3 so that it's no longer possible for third party apps to access files in the app sandbox.
The makers of iExplorer have a detailed support page covering this issue.

I want to learn iOS, but unfortunately I do have only windows machine.
The tutorial I am watching is based on mac operating system.
Is there any way to practice or run iOS simulator in my windows pc. If yes then
how to do that ?
Anything is possible if you set your mind to it. But the simple answer is no. Xcode will not run in Windows and nor will the iOS Simulator. There are other projects out there that offer iOS Dev from a Windows based machine. For example:
http://phonegap.com
Also ManicDev has a blog entry on this subject:
http://maniacdev.com/2010/01/iphone-development-windows-options-available
Bottom line though: If you're serious about developing for iOS - get a Mac. Life will be much easier. Promise. :)
The Apple iOS simulator only works on OS X..
You could use a service like macincloud.com they give you access to a Mac server with the xcode tools installed. It can be a good way to start without making the huge investment.
You could also try Xamarin Studio which also you to use C# to build Android and iOS apps. Could be worth a look.
