All,
I'm trying to search the iTunes store for some songs and I can search by artist and song title without a problem. I'm using the following link as a resource:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/resources/documentation/itunes-store-web-service-search-api.html
My issue is that I'd like to search by a genre for example Country and songs based on that genre. Does anyone know how to search by genre?
Please let me know.
Thanks!

I noticed that when you search on google certain restaurants, it appears with a link to book the restaurant in restorando.cl just like this:
Company profile with link embedded
It is possible to have something similar to book sport courts? I work on a company that i have lots of sports complexes to book and I want to know if it's possible to implement a direct link to the booking process on our app / website.
Thanks a lot!
Is there any way to search top genre songs ie. Top songs in "Dance" in Deezer API?
For example when I use http://api.deezer.com/genre/113/artists system sends only the artist list related with the Genre Id. But I need top songs related with the Genre. iTunes is supplying this kind of information but I couldn't find this solution in Deezer. Any help appreciated.
I think this is what you're looking for: http://developers.deezer.com/api/chart/tracks
Usage example:
http://api.deezer.com/chart/113/tracks
I'm creating an iOS radio station app, and I can't find a solution to what I thought was a simple problem. If my radio station plays an song/album people want to buy, how can I just launch the iTunes Store and have it open with a search results for that track or album?
I know I can use the Apple Search API to get a json of the search results and parse that for the best search results, and I know I can open the iTunes store with https://itunes.apple.com/ (if I try to append a search string to this, I get the metadata back) or with SKStoreProductViewController if I know the product ID.
But is there a way to simply open the iTunes Store to open with search results for a song or album (or both) without having to evaluate the search metadata and send them to one (perhaps wrong) product?
Thanks!
You can do this using URL Scheme's and a tool called iTunes Link Maker. Documentation can be found for iTunes on Apple's website here
The iTunes URL scheme is used to link to content on the iTunes Music
Store. The iTunes URL format is complicated to construct, so you
create it using an online tool called iTunes Link Maker. The tool
allows you to select a country destination and media type, and then
search by song, album, or artist. After you select the item you want
to link to, it generates the corresponding URL.

I am working on an app and need to make the user enter information like name, phone, address etc. Inside my app is it possible to show the contact list (Address book) and make the user pick the contact he wants to use. I am specifically hoping to find a way that also give me the UI and search functionality within the contacts just like the regular contacts list. So when the user wants to enter the information, I show him the contacts list (with the same UI/functionality or a subset of it) and let him pick the contact. Is there a way to do this in iOS?
Address book is there. USe that .

I'm having trouble configuring the URL to load an RSS feed of a particular artist's music into my app.
I'm using itunes XMLPerformace test Xcode project available on dev.apple. I simply want to change:
[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wpa/MRSS/newreleases/limit=300/rss.xml"];
into something that will load an artist's songs into the table view instead of the newreleases.
This resource seems to suggest additional feed generator options are availble, just not readily.

Has anyone come across this?
I just found out apple only offers select RSS feeds. Thus, I can not do it this way.
However, parsing a JSON request from the itunes store api appears to be the best solution anyways.
Itunes Store Api
Parsing the request from there was a breeze.
