    <p>Using iOS 4.0 I am trying to do a download an image in the background when the app is suspended. What I am doing is when I get the <code>applicationDidEnterBackground</code> delegate call, I initiate one asynchronous <code>NSURLConnection</code> and set the app delegate as the delegate for the connection. But none of the <code>NSURLConnection</code> delegates are getting called back. I have captured the network calls using Wireshark and I can see that my request succeeded and got the response too. But since none of the delegate methods are invoked I am unable to do anything with the data.</p> <pre><code>- (void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application { NSLog(@"Application entered background state."); // UIBackgroundTaskIdentifier bgTask is instance variable NSAssert(self-&gt;bgTask == UIBackgroundTaskInvalid, nil); bgTask = [application beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler: ^{ dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ [application endBackgroundTask:self-&gt;bgTask]; self-&gt;bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid; }); }]; NSURLRequest *request = [[NSURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://animal.discovery.com/mammals/leopard/pictures/leopard-picture.jpg"] cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData timeoutInterval:15]; self.connection = [[[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self startImmediately:NO] autorelease]; [self.connection scheduleInRunLoop:[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] forMode:NSRunLoopCommonModes]; [self.connection start]; [request release]; NSLog(@"Sent download request...."); dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ while([application backgroundTimeRemaining] &gt; 1.0) { //Do something.. } [application endBackgroundTask:self-&gt;bgTask]; self-&gt;bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid; NSLog(@"Ending background task...."); }); } </code></pre> <p>What should I do to complete a download asynchronously in background when the application goes to background?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
